II Corinthians 12:9 And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness. My purposes is to express my weaknesses, and how God's grace turns them into my strengths. I am passionate about the relationship I have with my creator, and I seek to share that passion with all who would partake. I have recently begun a journey; one that I hope will draw me closer to my Lord, and open up my heart and will to all He desires for me.

It is my expectation and hope that I won’t be put to shame in anything. Rather, I hope with daring courage that Christ’s greatness will be seen in my body, now as always, whether I live or die. Philippians 1:20 CEB #VerseoftheDay

I saw a post earlier tonight by an amazing young woman encouraging others to read the scripture and ask God to reveal what He is speaking through His words into our lives. I came upon this one tonight and began to meditate on how I need to apply it to my life. Here is what I feel I'm being taught in this season. "Chase after peace and holiness (humility before the Lord)- without these things, people cannot see God through you. Also, look carefully to show others the grace God has given to you. If you don't, offense will cause you to become bitter and poison you." I seldom get this right. As a matter of fact I failed at this today, and I am grateful and humbled by the grace I was shown in my weakness. I am also thankful for another chance, Lord willing, to chase peace and pour out grace because, God knows, I didn't deserve it when it was shown to me. The least I can do is try to pay it forward.

I keep forgetting that God doesn't supply my need according to the need, but according to His glorious riches...this is why I can come to Him and ask of Him in confidence. He already promises to supply me with everything I need and to make me more than a conquerer. He already loads me up daily with benefits. He always gives new grace and mercy every morning. He delights in these things. I keep forgetting. It's nice to be reminded. It's so refreshing. (at Warner Robins, Georgia)

Hello, bright eyes 💙 (at Warner Robins, Georgia)

Let's talk Vegan...🍇🍅🍉 My husband and I decided back in September to go primarily vegan with a cheat day or two every month (it's a process, and if I want it to work, we've got to be practical). We both agreed it was good for our health, and I hate how the animal bi-product industry places profits over things like animal welfare and the health of their customers (organic or not). Fast forward 3 months and I have to say this has been tough! 😣 One big problem we've faced is finding meals that actually taste good. I realize one struggle is getting past the desire for vegan meals to taste like the "real" thing. It's just not possible. It's taking some time to figure out which meals will become a staple and which won't because we just aren't sure which flavors and seasonings to use. Neither of us are chefs so each new recipe is a expedition into the unknown. Another problem is the amount of time it takes to make a vegan meal. Because of all the substitutions necessary, prepping the right ingredients can be exhausting. I didnt like to cook to begin with. Now I'm spending more time in the kitchen than ever. I know we can buy processed vegan ingredients, but then we run into the problem that we aren't sure what we're ingesting (preservatives, artificial additives, etc.). Obviously we aren't the most healthy people, but I'm trying to make a conscience effort to do better. The last problem we're facing is finding things our kids will eat. It never fails, I finally find a recipe I think will go over big and at least one of the boys asks for a p.b.& j. instead. I don't want to stop trying, but this momma needs help! It's getting frustrating and expensive trying these recipes that keep failing. So if any of you amazing vegans out there have helpful tips and recipe ideas that non-vegans might like (like my kiddos), I'd greatly appreciate it. My husband and I have been omnivores all our lives, and it would be great to find some meals that we can enjoy even if it doesn't taste like the original 😉. P.S. Quinoa is gross, how do I make it not gross? #vegan #helpme #desperatelyseekingdelicious #needhelp #theveganstruggleisreal #anyideas #fruitsandveggies #health #happy #food (at Warner Robins, Georgia)

Just finished Day 2 of @jessicasmithtv #MFPFALLCHALLENGE I really enjoy Jessica Smith and the flexibility her workouts provide. She is easy to follow and the alternative movements make the workouts enjoyable. I also appreciate that she works the whole time. That means she's sweating, breathing heavy, and loses her balance. She is also constantly reminding me to check my form and pay attention to how my body feels during the workout. Lots of fitness videos do this, but what keeps me coming back is the wide variety of workouts and alternatives to make them either easier or more challenging. After I'm done with this challenge, I think I'm gonna check out her 5 day Yoga challenge! (at Galleria Park Apartments)

I can't believe this is the only picture I got of all the festivities today! It was a wonderful day of leisure, food, and family. This picture perfectly sums up the joy I felt today. I'm so thankful for my family. We are a village full of craziness and silliness, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Love you all! (at Warner Robins, Georgia)

There's some sort of war going on in the boys' bathroom. I'm not sure what the alligator did to the reindeer, but it must have been bad b/c now the angry birds are involved. #boymom #boylife #mythreesons #wherestheElf #ImSureHeInstigatedThis #poorGator #doesntstandachance (at Galleria Park Apartments)

@stylesbytiffanyann has done it again! I brought in this picture of @chloenbrown 's adorable haircut as a guide for what I was hoping to achieve. Tiffany did a fantastic job! I've been insta stalking this look for a while. I knew I liked the length, but needed a few alterations to match my style/personality. Tiffany worked with me and walked me through every step of the process. She even took extra time to make sure the color I wanted was perfect! Thank you, Tiffany for always doing such an outstanding job and making me look and feel amazing!!! (at Southern Accent Salon and Spa)
