Still crying

We mourn for Uvalde TX today. STILL. STILL wondering what happened yesterday and how could someone shoot children like that.

No one knew they would drop their kids off and never see them again. So many babies received rewards and accolades. So many babies we’re looking forward to celebrating summer. Know, they rest in heaven with The Holy Father.

I’m a mom of 5 and step mom of 4. My heart aches and I cried yesterday. STILL crying today. All politicians are not responsible. All of them want gun control. WE ALL want gun control.

My blog posts are usually short and sweet. But I’m upset because it’s as if we are becoming numb to school shootings. We are becoming numb to children dying before their time. It’s really not a good thought to have, but I keep thinking of the mom who wanted to take her daughter with her after the award ceremony. But she didn’t, her daughter wanted to stay with her friends and classmates. Mom didn’t follow her first mind. Her daughter perished.

WOW. Can we wrap our minds around how a child can accept their fates? We’re still on that one. I’ll blog about it later. Acceptance of loss is never easy. I never got over my parents passing. I lost them over 40 years ago. My heart STILL aches and grieve on holidays.

In closing, again, we mourn for Uvalde TX and the world. Buffalo is STILL hurting and bleeding from what happened to them a couple of weeks ago. Continue to pray for comfort and peace 🕊️ it’s all we got… STILL

Until next time y’all, peace and blessings 😌

As the lilies spin

As lunch approached today, breaking news about the school shooting in Texas. My heart goes out to them and the families.

No one knows why or what reason he had to do that. No one will know the depth of how his mind worked as he went into the school. Only GOD knows!

As a mother of 5 and stepmom to 4, my heart dropped. All I could do was think of how I would have felt if it we’re me. I don’t know. I have no idea.

Picture a field if lilies. They spin and don’t toil. GOD waters then so they can grow and be beautiful. Just as GOD created those little souls to be beautiful, we mourn tonight. As I close, prayers for Uvalde, TX 💛💛

Peace and blessings 😌

STILL searching

I STILL haven’t found my glasses! As I stated before, the old pair has me adjusting to my surroundings. I’m like, LORD help!! But, the silver lining is…at least I can see.

Reading my Bible and knowing the words are true. I read today about light and darkness. New Testament Old Testament. God’s Words are real and true. I say that to say this, fumbling in the dark doesn’t work! For nobody! Periodt

John 8:12 “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” Isaiah 42:16 “And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.” (KJV, 2010)

Again lovies, if I didn’t find my old pair, I’d be fumbling. I’ve adjusted accordingly and have the freedom of sight. Without the Holy Spirit to guide me into that great understanding, I’d be blind.

The past is behind you and it’s done. We keep things to remind us of the past for comfort. Sometimes, we have to get out of our comfort zone. I’ll go to the eye dr soon! LoL. You catch that? Hope so.

Until next time y’all. Stay blessed

When you do what He wants you to do

Being obedient to God is so rewarding! My family went on a 25 day fast off meat products. We fasted off everything but fish. We love it and we won’t the debate if it’s meat or not!

The one thing I kept thinking about was it is for Him. I am honoring Him with not indulging on meat. I made a vow to not do it and I accomplished my goal! He’s blessing me with more clarity and soul-searching to finish this year in peace.

I lost like 7 pounds and my husband lost 10. Insert applause here!!!! We feel better and with the strength of The Holy One, we will make it!!! Have a blessed week on purpose 😘

An unexpected response

We all heard about it by now. He slapped him so hard! Will Smith defended his wife.

Was the comment completely necessary? Chris Rock, known for his sharp tongue, didn’t hold it. I love you Chris! I love you Will! From a black woman THANK YOU!

The thanks is for what Tiffany Haddish said. She posted “it made tears well up”. I get it and I’m keeping it. Women are the most unprotected species on Earth. We go through more than men and take so much. When a man values our crown, it made me feel fuzzy too.

I love the apology Mr. Rock presented as well. Again, I love you Chris! No blurry lines, just facts. TV doesn’t sugar coat anything; nor soften the blow watching some stuff live. You catch it, it’s on you! Next topic…

As we look to understanding what happened, we know what happened. It was all in the response. Stay blessed, jewels
