Struggles

I have been in the oven. It seem as though this last week has been rough on me. When one thing goes wrong it seems as though everything goes wrong. BUT I REFUSE to give up. 


But I know that I'm going in the right direction because the devil wouldn't be in my household so much. My uncle pastor always said if the devil is not attacking you then you need to worry; because if he isn't attacking you he already has you.

I have thought about giving up on this blog because I just feel like the more I try to influence people to experience God the more I'm attacked in my marriage, my body, my mind, my finances, and in my family. I feel like what is the use. We crucified and rejected Jesus, how do I stand a chance? But, God said if you just touch one then it was worth it.   

 My oldest daughter was going to an innovation camp and she was getting tired of waking up early (I was too) and she wanted to quit going. It was almost the end of the week and I texted her quitters never win. When we are parents we want our children to be better and go further than we did. I pushed her to finish the week and I think she is glad and was proud that she finished. Sometimes we need to follow our own advice.  I'm saying this to say we can be ready to quit and our blessing is right there.  The race isn't given the swift but to the one who endures to the end.

 Don't give up!
Color the world! Let your struggles, haters, etc., be your motivation to color past the pain.

Broken, But Not In The Same Place

Some of us are more broken than others. Some of us are broken and unaware that we are broken. We are broken but maybe not in the same place. If you have children then you know some crayons are broken right in half as soon as the crayons leave the box. Just like some of us, we may have been broken as soon as we left the box (the womb). Some of us had to endure being broken as children. Having to hear we will never become..., or feeling unwanted, etc. You get the point. Some of us were broken in the middle stages or late stages in life. Those are the crayons that children just like to break the pointy part off and you see the longest part with the little crayons that you can barely distinguish what it is laying around. But nevertheless we are all broken. Today, I learned a valuable lesson that no matter where we are broken, we are still broken. We should not judge the broken on their brokenness or on where they are broken. Because my brokenness is not where yours is doesn't make yo

Dark to Light

Oh my! this thing has been on my brain for two days. I already had another post but it is still sitting in draft. I have been waking up 30 minutes before my alarm every morning (the struggle). When I wake up 30 minutes early it is still dark outside. I thought that I had at least three plus hours to sleep and when I look  ...umm, no. So I used the time wisely and began to pray and I was so amazed  how God can turn the midnight into day in a matter of seconds. I have been praying to God about a lot of things and I began to hear a soft voice say that's how fast I do miracles. While you and I are still praying for something God has already turned our midnight into day. Color the world!
