Eyes of Faith

Do you ever feel like you have messed up so much that there is no way God would welcome you into His Kingdom?  That there is no way He could ever love someone like you?  That He would never look past your mistakes, your failures, your sin?  That He would never want to bless your life?

One of the lies the enemy wants us to believe is that there is no way we could ever turn our lives around after we have failed.  The enemy wants us to live feeling defeated and worthless.  The enemy wants us to live feeling guilty and condemned. The enemy wants us to believe that God would never love a sinner like us; not after what we have done in our past.  The enemy knows our weaknesses and wants us to believe that because of our past, our mistakes and failures, that we could never be loved by God.  Because of our sins, God would never love us enough to want to free us let alone call us His son or daughter.

Our Heavenly Father loves us regardless of our past.  His love for us is unconditional and true.  His love is full of grace that He freely gives to each and every one of us.  Isn't that an amazing reality?  Don't you want to be set free from the guilt of your past?  Have you accepted His forgiveness today?  Are you feeling that nudge-that pulling in your heart to invite Him in?  Why not make today the day you break the chains of your past and be born again into His Kingdom as a child of the Most High?

Thank You, God, for Making Me a Mom

Looking back on my life, when I was just a small girl, I dreamt of becoming a mother one day. Being a mom was the only thing I wanted to be when I grew up.  I didn't have aspirations to be a doctor or a lawyer or a teacher.  I simply wanted to be a mom.  So today, I am so thankful to my God.  He is the one who allowed my childhood dream of motherhood to come true. I am truly humbled that he picked me to be Cody and Owen's mommy. I come from a lineage of women who set the perfect example of what it is to be a great mom. The love of a mother is endless, as my mom, continues to show me even as I am an adult and have children of my own.   Today is the day we celebrate our moms and all of their hard work.  To show our appreciation to the one who has cared for us and loved us from day one.  As I celebrate my mother and all she continues to do, I am also reflecting upon my God.  What a mighty God we serve.  It's because of His blessings, I am a mom of two.  I am also thi

A Letter to my Boys

Cody and Owen, If I could give you any kind of advice it would be to just live.  Live your lives to the fullest.  Don't be afraid to go on new adventures.  Travel the world.  Don't be afraid to experience new things.  Meet new people.  Try new foods-at least once.  Do not ever be okay with the status quo.  Take risks.  Dream bigger.  When you are told no, don't let it defeat you.  Let it drive you.  Never lose that drive to become better men.  You only get one shot at this life, don't waste a single minute of it. Most importantly though, have a heart that loves God.  Put Him first above all else.  Live a life that honors Him.  He will watch over your coming and going. Because one day, you will leave home to forge your own way in this world.  At times, it will seem big and scary.  He will be your protector.  He will guide you along the paths you are to walk down.  Remember to be still and listen for His voice.  Consult Him on every decision.  No matter how big or

It’s hard to believe that this will be the second Christmas without my boys in it.  But even in their absence, they will still be here in memory and carried throughout the day in my heart.  Ever since this parental alienation journey began, it’s been my goal to still celebrate them and keep up with the traditions I’ve always done; even if they wouldn’t be here to see it.  Their stockings are hung, their picture with Santa has been placed on the top of the piano and their artwork from preschool have been displayed.  All in attempt to keep them alive and present with us all.   Boys, we may not be together, but I am always here.  I pray that your Christmas is filled with unspeakable joy and love as you move into the New Year.  I am praying big things over your lives and future, and I need you to know that you are loved, you are wanted and we will never give up on you.
