There remain days, times, when I want to run; the feeling of the need to escape can try to overtake me. The only way I stay grounded is to keep my feet firmly planted in the promises of God for my life. I would highly recommend if you have never felt the passion of His promises, and specific ones for your own life, please feel free to ask for a download.

A promise is precious. It is in essence, an “I will never leave you, nor forsake you” promise. In our day and age, it can go a long way. As the days inch closer to the 4th of November, these words are an ever present reminder to me of how He literally has preserved my life; begun to fulfill His promises to me, and has not left me. I in turn, have not forsaken Him.

For my birthday night, I spent time at a local resort, after one of my kids won an evening away and chose to share it with me smile emoticon Oddly enough, I found myself at the very same locale this year as last year, at the same time of the season and month. After I planned the getaway, I realized the “coincidence”. I knew God wanted to show me something.

That is where my mind goes. I find myself at a crazy place in my life…… as I am creating careers and venturing into love. But now, I am the one with a full schedule. I am the one that could be a bit more sensitive when I make plans or fill my time. The tables have turned on me, as compared to how I spent the past 25+ years. It is super weird.

I know I’ve taken on more of a business role in most aspects of my life, even in our family, as I help each “manage” their lives and futures. When feeling particularly emotional, some have told me they just want to be a family again. I am not sure we can go back. ‪#‎newnormal‬

I am however, very excited for year 47 of my life. I think I have more goals than ever in my life; more creativity than I have ever experienced, and I’m pushing myself in terms of using my strength to support others. It is important to know what role you play in the lives of others…….. because it will empower YOU to become………

Blessing on blessing on blessing.
