Sometimes its OK to say... I am NOT Ok

http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ Sometimes its OK to say... I am NOT Ok  Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. It's been a really hard week for me and I ALMOST fell into the depths of despair. I lost my father this week and I felt so alone trying to figure out what to do, who to talk and how to counsel my children. I asked God a lot of questions over the past couple of weeks and you know what I feel so much stronger now. http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ Sometimes its OK to spend a moment getting those emotions out and trying to get your bearings. I could barely stand alone and then God reminded me that I didn't have to. We all have experienced a major loss in our lives...Its really inevitable.. BUT misery is optional. You DO NOT have to be miserable.  I have been through a lot and with each hard time I have grown closer to God. You have to remind yourself that God repairs.  http://mycrazylifeasanavywife...

Good news...Your Life is a GIFT

Image
http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ YOUR LIFE IS A GIFT http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ Each morning when I sit on the edge of my bed, I STOP and say a quick prayer to my Father. I tell him simply THANK YOU for another day to serve him and thank him for this GIFT of my life. http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ Yes, Your life is a precious gift. I hope that you really understand those words. Let me tell you, Each day you are given choices. Choices to be grateful AND choices to be happy. It is your choice to make decisions each day that honor God and honor our family. http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ ARE YOU GRATEFUL?                                       ARE YOU GRATEFUL?  http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ Take a small portion of your day to thank him for your life....

Every time you speak words from your mouth, You are sowing seeds

Image
http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ Every time you speak words from your mouth, You are sowing seeds Each day begins the same, We wake up, we pray and we start our day. BUT do we take a moment to tell the one's closest to us the way we feel? When you got up this morning did you say I LOVE YOU to your spouse, to your children or your closest friends? We all have been guilty of this from time to time. The good news is...We can change TODAY!  http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/  Sometimes we get so busy in our day to day to day routine and we FORGET to show our love and appreciation for our family members.  Have you done this?  Have you taken the people closest to you for granted?   Our words can build others up OR they can break them down. Do not be responsible for breaking down a person.  Instead use your words in a powerful way and uplift them.  YES, Show your love with Positive words a...

I Am asking that everyone will continue to pray as he recovers. God is so good and he is feeling better today. Just in case you missed my post, My son was really sick recently! I shared how I felt helpless as his mother and how he reminded me that he was not a baby anymore... http://mycrazylifeasanavywife.blogspot.com/ But even though he is 15 and a young man, when he is sick, He is STILL my baby.  My 15 year old son Patrick is my baby. He knows it, I know it and I am telling the world that as loud as I can! His injuries were a direct result of him  Playing that trumpet. Day in and day out of wear and tear on his mouth had him sidelined. I explained to him how sometimes the constant practicing and performing could take its toll on my young trumpet player. He woke up with swollen lips, A sore inner jaw and a...
