Following God Wholeheartedly!

-

As I study the lesson to teach Sunday School, on Caleb and how he followed God wholeheartedly, I can't help but share this! “But because My servant Caleb has a different spirit & follows Me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he went to and his descendants will inherit it.” Numbers 14:24 - I want that “different spirit”, don’t you? The one that keeps on believing God with all that is within. Caleb kept God’s promises forefront in his heart. His conviction was sure that God is faithful even after waiting 45 years to receive the fulfillment of God’s promise. Caleb is an example for us to follow. He was faithful to what God had promised. He persevered in faith; trusted God’s promises and was prepared to fight for what God had promised no matter how long it took, meaning he was 85 years old before he begin seeing God's promises being brought to light in his life; what God promised him about the land 45 years prior! Isaiah 46:4 says, “Even to your old age and gray hairs I am He, I am He who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” Like Caleb, let us trust in God and follow Him wholeheartedly all the days of our life. ⤵share to encourage others NOT to stop waiting on God to move, to answer your prayers, & to fulfill His promises in your life!

Why A Blog Titled: "Becoming Better Women"?

-

Back around the last week of October 2017, I had a dream about the acronym "BBW" standing for something profound! I was standing in a room full of women, some I knew and some I had never seen before in my life and I looked down at a piece of paper and it said in bold cursive writing, BBW =  "Becoming Better Women" . There were women of all shapes and sizes in this room, different ages and races, showing different emotions. Nothing was said in the dream but when I woke up I didn't forget about it. In fact, a couple of days later I text myself those three words, becoming better women. Not yet knowing what to do with it, what it meant exactly, but feeling very strongly the Lord gave it to me for a reason! I had no idea that a week later, after having this dream, I would end up in the hospital for what seemed to be the longest and most challenging 7 days of my life! Throughout my time in the hospital, "Becoming Better Women" would go through my mind. Aroun...

Reconnect and Reset!

8.21.2022 - 8.24.2022 • A "reconnect and reset trip" to the Great Smoky Mountains with my dear friend of 10 years, Susan. We haven't got to visit and see each other in a long while. We talk over the phone some. In 2012, we met while attending the same church, and connected instantly. We've held each other up in prayer, encouraged each other in the Lord, cried and laughed together, and worshipped together, as sisters in Christ should. We belly laughed so much on our vacation until we were hurting and seeing stars. We were planning to rest more, but we decided to pack in the fun while the Lord gave us the opportunity to do so together and memories sure were made. We prayed for God to pave the way and He did. He gave us favor with the traffic, favor with my vehicle, favor in keeping us safe from harm (we know how dangerous it can be for two women to travel alone, but with God you are never alone), favor with His band of Holy Angels all around us, ...

So, Why Should I Worry?

-
A couple of nights before my surgery last week, and all throughout the day before my surgery, this is the song that I listened to and it brought me so much peace and comfort. I remember checking my Facebook memories and my YouTube home page and this video was in both my FB memories and at the top of my suggested videos on my YouTube app. Let me tell you, it doesn't matter what you're facing God will bring you comfort when you need it the most. There are no coincidences with Him. Sometimes it's in the words of a song, the prayers from others, the gentle reminders from His Holy scriptures, or through a dear friend just reminding you to "be still and know that He is God". It doesn't matter if you've been living for the Lord a few years or many, or you've had one surgery or many (like myself), at times you're going to find yourself in need of some encouragement. That precious and needed encouragement will show up right on time, everytime. If you're...
