TRUST IN GOD AND YOU WILL NEVER BE DISAPPOINTED   When I read my bible this morning it said, God will ALWAYS cause us to triumph... It did not say sometimes. It  said  ALWAYS.......      I love reading my bible......    Trust in him and I promise you that you will not be DISAPPOINTED. You see no weapon formed against you shall prosper. It may be formed, but it will not prevail. Today is the day for you to start believing that. when you have faith and believe, You will see God's Word come true right before your eyes. Today is the day to erase all doubts. Are you with me? If you allow him, he will deliver you into your destiny. Its within your reach.. .    Don't lose faith, I did not say it was going to be easy....It seems at every turn I'm being thwarted, but I know God has a plan and if the enemy is piling it on.... That means I'm close to my victory!!   It pays to put your trust in God!   Be encouraged t

                  ANOTHER GREAT VISIT FROM MY SISTER JUANITA   WHAT A JOY TO HAVE HER AS MY SISTER, I LOVE HER SO MUCH!                          ~Another great visit with my older sister Juanita~   I love my sister Juanita, she is simply AMAZING! She has always brought a huge smile to my face and that was sure the case with this visit. She came down even though I was going through a really rough sickness.  MY SON PATRICK AND MY SISTER JUANITA She understood that I needed to see her and she jumped on a plane and came to be with me. Well, The kids tried to hog all her time but I managed to get some quality time just with her. I am so motivated by her and her spirit.... She makes you believe that you can make it through anything! That you have more in you than you think! MY SISTER JUANITA, OLDEST SON ELIJAH AND YOUNGEST SON PATRICK PLAYING IN THE BACK YARD HERE IN FLORIDA   I really enjoyed all of her beautiful stories and memories that we shared...t

God is proud of you...No matter What!

Image
GOD IS PROUD OF YOU...NO MATTER WHAT!  Every day we wake up and we have to be proud of the reflection that stares back...Are you proud of yourself?  We all make some difficult choices on a daily basis that affect our life. You have to trust that those decisions were the right ones and that you are doing what God has designed for you. God desires to give you wisdom and insight in every area of your life.  It does not matter what job you have. In the home, outside of the home or BOTH! Be proud of yourself and your God given talents... God is proud of you no matter what. God is saying BE PROUD and do not worry about what you don't have. Don't worry about what or who you aren't. I am all you need. I would love to hear from you.....Drop me an email or leave a comment. Thank you for visiting  My Crazy life as a Navy Wife,  the following links will help you to contact me: Mailing address My Crazy Li

Can I start this day all over?

CAN I START THIS DAY ALL OVER? ******************************************  IS THERE A UN-DO BUTTON?  Sometimes, it's so hard to tackle difficult days. You know they are going to be difficult and you dread the day as it approaches on the calender. TODAY IS THE DAY...MY APPOINTMENT I see that today is my specialty appointment.   Today is one of those days... Its my appointment...OH NO!  MY HEAD WAS POUNDING Right now I would like to just THROW IN THE TOWEL, but I will persevere with God's help. A slight moment of weakness and I had to catch my breath and get myself together this morning... I had to shout to myself, Don't throw in the towel!    I know there is something in the bible that can get me through what I have to face today. More tests, more labs and more probing at the doctor's office. It gets to be so draining. Let me take a moment to just say that I am grateful to God that I am alive and have a chance to read his word on

Don't Obey FEAR

                             ~ DO NOT OBEY FEAR ~ When I lost my beloved mother to Alcoholism, no was was ever able to say anything that eased my pain or ease my grief. I was looking for something, searching for something...I was waiting for my pastor to say anything that was "Biblical OR Uplifting"...  I am not sure if that makes any sense. But that was exactly where my heart was. I had a tremendous amount of FEAR......  I was hurting and I was simply heartbroken. It was then that I searched for the words in my Bible to comfort me during this time.  The words jumped out at me and spoke directly to my heart. I knew in that very moment that God was unfolding a plan for me. Despite the pain, the heartache and my dark days. I realized that it is in those dark times when he shows up more than ever....   Thank you father for always being present and for always caring for your children. So don't waste a second in that dark place I talked ab

Believe that you are BEAUTIFUL

EMPOWER YOURSELF EVERY DAY Do you sometimes look at the mirror and point out ALL THE THINGS THAT ARE WRONG with your body? Words have real power and starting today we have to try to EMPOWER OURSELVES in a way that we will believe and live a life better and more POSITIVE...    THINK ABOUT IT, by saying you aren't beautiful or insulting yourself you are essentially insulting God also... LET ME EXPLAIN, We are all created in God's image and we are all HIS CREATION!!!! We are all unique and have so many beautiful qualities. You have to LOVE YOURSELF and APPRECIATE what you have.... EMPOWER YOURSELF... Sounds like a great idea to me.   LOVE YOURSELF   LOVE YOURSELF   LOVE YOURSELF   Do not waste any precious time moping around wishing for a body like the model on television. Take PRIDE in you and your own personal self. Sounds like a plan, let's start that today! Today is the day for a new way of thinking, a new outlook and a new you. Surrende

PRAYER JOURNALS ARE A GOOD WAY TO BOND WITH YOUR KIDS

I PRAY FOR MY 3 CHILDREN DAILY I also pray that my family will be able to focus daily on God. That my friends is easier said than done.... Especially today when our kids are finding other interests and slowly taking on their own identities. That is when I thought of a way to keep them connected to the bible... I decided to introduce to my kids the concept of writing down their feelings, concerns and joys in a journal. Not just any journal. I wanted the journal to be a way for them to talk about God..I mean I encouraged Lyric and Patrick to make a prayer journal. I was so impressed by the dialog this suggestion alone created. Starting this journal has made the children able to express their feelings better and allow them the chance to discuss their prayers. Each day as we discuss the bible and discuss their journals I find them overjoyed and anxious about writing the next entry. Through this journey of developing a prayer journal, we have continued
