Sow Tears = Reap Joy!

-

THEY THAT SOW IN TEARS SHALL REAP IN JOY. - Psalm 126:5 😓➡😄 After my pastor preached a powerful message on this chapter one Sunday in early 2017, the Lord really begin to pour into me... For every hurt ever dealt to us, every pain inflicted on us, and any adversity that threatens to fall upon us... we are told by our Heavenly Father to never be discouraged. From God comes this promise that our tears and sorrows He will turn to JOY. There is no man or anything in this world that can steal the joy that lives in our very hearts and souls. Many will come and attempt to strip us down to the bone, but they cannot touch our soul. Jesus already owns our souls, Jesus abides there and where Jesus is, there is no man or anything else that is big enough to destroy the one who has already won the victory. The wicked will be shown that victory, so each and every one of us should be reminded to keep on doing good through everything God’s adversary (the devil) and our enemies throws at us. This Psalm speaks to me very much of the hope we have in Him. Now, I ask you, is anyone or anything big enough to steal your joy and the victory you already have in Jesus? This child of God's answer is a resounding, "NO". A BIG resounding NO for I know how BIG my God is!!!

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, ...

From Marah to Elim!

"From Marah to Elim" - Sometimes you can't get to your Elim in life *a place of restoration until you go through your Marah *a place of bitterness. I studied over this word again, recorded the devotion back on Feb. 11th of this year. I didn't know around that time that my balance/ear situation from an inner ear disease I have been fighting for over 18 years would progressively get worse to the point of my ear shunt needing revising due to it malfunctioning. So I had surgery for that on March 5th, 2025... and I've been in recovery mode since. I was going back through files on my phone and realized that I failed to upload and share this video devotion study. Isn't it just like the enemy to do his best to immediately bring distraction and hindrances our way to try to stop God's word from going forth with power and victory?! But God... the enemy will never fully stop the word(s) of the Lord from being delivered... oh, he may try to cause the delays but God alw...
