There is a reason for your detours in life. Sometimes things happen in our lives to slow us down or guide us in a certain direction. Maybe the Lord has a detour for us to see something we may not have otherwise seen. Think of it like you are on a journey to somewhere. You are anxious to get to your destination and then the road that you are familiar with, is under construction. There is a huge detour. Along that detour route, you notice a beautiful view or come across something that you wouldn't have had if you were traveling on your familiar route. My chronic pains are getting the better of me. Yesterday morning I was able to get out of bed almost eleven o' clock. It can be very frustrating. There is so much stuff to do. My weekly schedule is full with chores, errands, my daughter's volleyball practices and games, appointments to make and keep, bills to remember to pay and so on. My drafts need to be revised and edited. I am anxious to get them done but it seems as ...

Happy New Year 2017!  Today is Sunday, 1st January, 2017. It is the first day of the New Year. Wow, where did 2016 go? I think that last year just flew by. I am not sure that I miss it though. I am looking forward to a new year and new beginnings. I pray that my relationship with the Lord would be one that is constantly growing. I pray for my fans who are still following me on Facebook. I've had some faithful ones from the very beginning of when I started the page. How blessed am I to have such dear friends! Though we do not know what tomorrow may bring, I plan to get more writing done. I have a few that are still in the draft process but with the worsening of my health this past year, I haven't done much as I would have liked to. So this year I will write more. I have made up my mind to do so and I pray that the Lord would give me good health and strength for it. I am also in the process of having another inspirational project getting started. I would not divulge too much ...

These past few months have been hectic with all sorts of commitments, errands and having some increasing health issues that were making me less productive in my work life. My vision problems and lack of time were making it even more difficult to do my best when I sit at the computer. I felt so tired and drained that my brains felt like mush. I felt as if I was walking in quicksand, sinking deeper and deeper the more I struggled to stay afloat. I always have my daily walks with the Lord but my flesh was stepping in and taking priority rather than the spirit. As a result I was listening more to my cries than to His help. Have you ever felt that way too? It's not the nicest feeling in the world, is it? Because I was dealing with health issues, I felt a lot of physical pains in various areas of my body. My work was suffering from not being able to do as much as I'd liked to. It was hard to sit at the computer without my eyes hurting. I was paying the price for my ailments. T...

Almost two weeks have passed in this new year. With it, I have noticed that the challenges for me have already started. Isn't it amazing how the cares of this world can get to us? If you go on the internet or put on the television or listen to the radio, there is always something happening that stuns us, aggravates us, grieves us, disgusts us and so on. Nearly all the news you hear is bad news. It can wear you down whether you notice it or not. The good news is that no matter what circumstances we find ourselves in, we have someone to depend on (that is if you are one who trust in God or even believe in God). We have someone who loves us despite who we are or what we've done.   I had a couple of giveaways last month and a couple new members who joined my Facebook page have had recent losses of loved ones. Grief is never easy. I pray for them and others who are going through similar circumstances. If you are reading this and have experienced a loss, please remember this quote b...

Today is Thursday, December 31st. It is the last day of the year 2015. A lot can happen in a year. In fact, a lot can happen in a day. This year for me has been one filled with good and not so good, but I must say that I am still thankful. Thankful that though there were a few storms in my life, that the One and Only gave me the strength I needed. He has blessed me in so many little ways. I cannot afford to take it all for granted nor forget to know whom to thank. It is not 2016 yet. Just a few more hours to go, but I do want to take the time to thank each and everyone of my readers who has supported me and cheered me on. Thanks to each of those who have downloaded my books. Thanks to those who took part in the giveaways. My prayers are with you all. I wish you only the best. I pray that this coming year for you is one filled with lots of love and happiness. I pray also that we share His Love, be kind to one another and always be willing to lend a helping hand or even a smile t...

I am so excited to show you all a sneak peek of my new book coming soon. It is a short devotional for Christian wives called "The Power of the Christian Wife". It is adapted from a brief article I had written in 2010. I am still in the revision stage but was so excited when I got this cover done today. Stay tuned! Blessings to you all!
