I'm a Gettin' Ready to Go!

-
You start going back through old records, only to find this jewel released in 1968! We still have a working record player! Songs just sound better on it to me! Like drinking coca cola in a glass bottle! No auto tune or overdubs! Just rawness and realness!! Gracious this seriously had to the best album she recorded, besides the other Gospel music she recorded and released, i.e. "Hymns". Yeah she could sing the phone book, and there will never be another Comway & Loretta, but now this is a favorite on my Spotify. She had incredible writing abilities for sure! 

"Glory hallelujah *she would sing "hallelujer", I'm not ashamed to let my salvation show. This old world's just my dressin' room, and I'm a gettin' ready to go!" 

Look that song up on YouTube! What lyrics! Not to mention, "Standing Room Only"! Goodness that one gives me chills! I've now got this album on repeat! This new music needs to make a u-turn back to the simpler styles! Just sing it, without all that extra mess added! I'm an old soul! The Lord's done allowed me to stumble upon a 54 year old record to bring me out of overwhelming sadness of a challenging time I'm going through right now! He's not left me! He never will! He's just writing a new chapter for my life! It will be a good one! Who'd thought He'd use the late Loretta Lynn to do it? Already making a difference on the other side of Glory with her music! This ole world is in a bad shape, yet God has a way of pulling you back into the simplicity of Who He is, and that He is soon coming and to hang on!🙌

Why A Blog Titled: "Becoming Better Women"?

-
Image
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, ...

We Prepare for Battle in Prayer!

-
Read Ephesians 6:10-18 The armor of God is vital to Christian belivers when it comes to our prayer life, overcoming spiritual warfare, and overcoming a lukewarm lifestyle. We can learn to become crucified in Christ so that the flesh part of us can resist the enemy's lies and temptations to sin. We can become transformed into a new person in Christ and no longer be enslaved to our old habits and sinful nature and attitude. We have daily choices to live accordingly to God's righteous standards and deny sin. We we choose God's desires for our life instead of sins, we crucify our flesh. Sin is only pleasurable for a season, and then it will turn on you like an unknown allergic reaction to a favorite food you ate. We prepare for battle when we suit up daily with the armor of God.  ---------- ARMOR of God and its PURPOSE: Belt of Truth - backbone of the word  Breastplate of Righteousness - protects is from satan's fiery darts, lies, temptation Feet Preparation of the Gospel o...
