Holding out for blue eyes

When I was a little girl I would tell everyone that I was going to marry a man with blonde hair very light skin and blue eyes. My mother would tell me not to limit my self and keep my eyes open for any man not just the blue eyed ones. Well my husband is blonde and blue eyed. My point is I knew even at a young age  what God had in mind for me. I didnt want less than that. God has put a vision in all of us for so many things. Our husbands ,kids, and the list can go on what has he put on your heart and mind and are you going for that or are you just taking what is in front of you,the easy road is always infront of us but why take when your blue eyed prince is just a few steps away??

The right time....

Please know no matter where you are in your life is where God wants you to be. Single, married, and any other spot in life. God wants you in that spot. Its like when you where a child and your mom would have you sit in one spot. Most.of the time you would try and move arpund or if you are anything like my sister take of. Your mom put you in that spot for a reason. God.is the same he has a reason for tje spot your in so sit down and let him work. It will be amazing what he does I just know it!!

Does this pride make me look fat??

Pride the most calorie carry thing of all! You can over stuff your self so easy on it and it makes it so hard to lose the pouds you gain from it. Pride holds us back from truly doing Gods will for our lives. I know in my life when iam stuffed on pride I cant move,im lazy, and slow. We should not stuff ourselfs with pride but joy love kindness and a true want for the lord. Very low in daily calories. They keep you fit and full of energy! So does your pride for the things you do make you look fat or do you give gorly to God and feel fit and full of true peace??

God im sleepy

Life can some times drain us. Point blank it does that,what in your life drains you? Have you given it to God or do you just say you have? Life gets hard,life makes you wanna get in bed early and sleep in the next day. The fact is im right there with ya, but I know Gods plan for my life is better than just saying im tired of this life or thing im dealing with. God will use this time in your life for his plan and for the good of others. So wake up read your word, do something outside your safe zone! This will wake you up and make you feel like you took that vacation. Find out why whats making you sleepy and why. Talk to God about it. Did that chapter in your life in end are you giving this new thing your all? God didnt make life sleepy humans did.

Going the speed limit.....

This morning on my way to work I was driving the right speed. Well I kept getting past by others going way over the right speed. How many times in our life do we feel like we are doing the right thing and we are getting pasted  by some who are doing the wrong thing. I know when I was younger I was trying so hard to always do what God wanted me to do and id look up and see others doing everything for themslefs ans they seemed ahead of me in life. God sees everything we do and our hearts when we are doing them. He does reward us for doing good. Time may pass but our reward is coming. It may even be on your door step. Keep doing the right thing,God sees you:)

Lifes bumps make us......

Offten when we hit a bump in life we think its hurting us. In my life ive learned that if you hit bumps in the road it just means your on the right road! When I was 19 I hit a BIG bump. I was actaully kicked out of my church! After a messy break up with one of my fellow youth group interns. I was asked to leave because my broken heart was making others uncomfortable. I remeber hearing this from my youth leader. I thought my world was over and God had dumped me just like my ex had. Little did I know that God would use this bump as a way to make me the woman he has planned me to be. Bumps do that. They throw us down and when we hit the floor our true self comes out. My true self was stronger than I ever thought. God makes us strong in these bumps. All my little lifes bumps had made me ready and strong for this large bump. The fact that im very trusting of Gods plan helped aswell! After a month of being out of church my elders found out and had my youth leader call me and tell me sorry for kicking me out for that time. God has a plan for your bumps! And his plan is never more than we can take. We will learn and grow in the bumps and we do get rewarded for going thru them. I have a truly amazing husband and im starting my ministry. All of which would not be here in my life right now if I was never on my bumpy road!

Looks vs moments

How many times as women do we care more about how we look then what we are doing. That was me not too long ago today. I get this way all the time. My honeymoon I was worried about how I looked every second of it. To the point of wanting to cry beacuse I got something on my shirt. My poor husband, so  understanding and calm with me. I forgot to be in the moment with him and enjoy that time. So what does all this add up to, well as women of faith what of this world(like the way we look) gets in the moments of life and actually steal them from us? Do we get all dressed up to go out and talk to others about christ and in our rush to look good forget to pray and ask God for his will or for him to bless the outting? I know I have. Im not saying I have the answer im just saying lets think and pray on this today or for the next few days. Have a good convo with the lord see what he tells us!

Love

As much as I love my husband I know that God loved me way before alex came into my life and started to love me. So on a day like today if you have a husband boyfriend or a cursh know and foucs your heart on the father who loves you everyday and is with you every moment of everyday. My husband is at school today so today God and I are hanging out and he even wrote me a book telling me how much he loves me!! Get in your word today and spend time in love!

The Wife Academy.

So your hubby or man wants to be a cop. A few hours goes by after he tells you and then the whole cop thing sinks into your mind and heart. If you are anything like me it took getting maeried for it to really sink in. And then I was a lil mad at my hubby for a few days. It took being on a trip to see my sister two hours away for us to really talk about. I kept thinking "God I dont know how iam going to be understanding to this dream of his that could take him from me and maybe our kids!" So in this two hour car ride which really felt like years long our talk came to the point of "Do you trust God?" Im not gunna lie it took me a few days to say yes. I do. Just like on my wedding day,i do! That was half of step one. The other half was know he would have to quit his job and id be the only one working. So I got a job 30min from where we live. My day to day in the wife acadmey is, I get up go to work...drive home...do anything my needs me to do,ie dry cleaning....then we have dinner and its off to prep his uniforms make his lunch and breakfast. But the thing is ladies or guys is that my love of my life is doing.sooo much more in his day that I want to do these things for him. Its how I show him I love you and im by yourside for everything. Trust days will happen where you cant stand this stupid academy and you just want your hubby home but he is doing evoc. Which is the driving part. Or like me on our very 1st v-day he is doing his backgroud testing till who knows when. When I get this way I think back to the things my wonderful mother in law told me(my father in law was a cop for over 20 years) she says do your thing, go hangout with friends, have a beauty nite in nails hair all that stuff. Get a hobby so your happy when he gets home so you two can enjoy the time you do have. Even of its 1hour before bed. Id rather have one hour of joy with my man then be mad at him when he gets home late from the academy. So this time will have beinfits (3 day weekends) and its down falls but.if you trust God and know he wont give us anything we cant.handle then youll be good!

what is your weakness?

Before this morning i would of said oi had alot of weak things about me. this morning i was not very smart, not good at sports and not that awesome at a well being me i saw myself as a weakness. i know i wasnt the only one out there. Most of us think that way about our selfs. im not them so i guess i suck at life. im not thin or skinny so others wont like me or think im cool or funny. those have been my thoughts since i was in the 2nd grade. sad i wasted all that time seeing myself as my weakness. GOD wants us to think on the positive side of life. he made us in his image (not sure how my hips look like his ) and once we stop seeing us as weak and him as what makes us strong life is positive and full of joy. those way too happy all the time people well youll be one of them. and who doesnt want to be happy all the time. love God and love your self and see who you are as strong from now now!!!!!
