I'm STRUGGLING!


Good Evening!
         
         I hope you all are having a great week so far! Have you ever been one to make new years resolutions? Do you find that the month of January you are motivated and excited about your new years resolutions/goals for the year? How are you feeling by March?

         I am that one person who starts off every new year with a similar goal as the year before to eat better ( healthier), work out more, and overall have a healthier lifestyle. This year was no different, at least when it came to the health and fitness goals for the year. Honestly I am STRUGGLING!!! It's March...month number three into my new year and I feel off my game.

        This week I wanted to lay in bed and not do much of anything. But I was reminded one morning that God did not give me each new day to lay around and do nothing, but to do what He is calling me to do. It's not always clear what God wants me to do every moment of my every day life, but to lay in bed, watch Netflix (most of the day)...well that is not what He wanted me to do. He wanted me to call on Him when I am struggling with my goals/new years resolutions. Why? Because God is there to encourage us, to give us strength, and to help pick us up when we feel low. 

       I love this verse {Philippians 4 :11 } I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me.
Yes!!! I CAN do ALL things when God is in the center of my life. He is always there to help us and encourage us. 

       As you go about your week and into the weekend, I hope this is an encouragement and a loving reminder that with Christ we CAN do ALL things! How awesome and exciting is that!? 
     

        Until next time

Happy Easter!!!

He is RISEN!   He is RISEN INDEED!!! What a beautiful Easter day! When God woke me up this morning at 6am, before the sunrise, I started to think about all the Easter Sunday's I have celebrate throughout my life so far. I wondered how many I've celebrate... if I did my math right, I've celebrated 27 (thanks hubby for checking my math) Easters! WOW!!! that's a lot of Easter celebrations!  For  most of us, we have different family traditions for so many holidays...what are your family traditions for Easter?  I started thinking about what my family of origin ( the family that God blessed me with: my mother Terri, my earthly father Herb iii, my brother Herb IV, and my baby sister Sarah. ) Easter traditions were growing up, here is what I remember: we would dye Easter eggs and decorate with the magic clear crayon and stickers that came in the box mom bought from the store, we did egg hunts hosted by the Air Fo...

One already!

Happy First Birthday to our sweet Teddy Bear! And Happy Birthday mama and papa bear! Thanks right! Our sweet baby boy Theodore Leo Taylor is ONE already!  I can't believe he is one years old already. Wasn't it just yesterday I was at the hospital breathing through those contractions with so much joy and excitement to meet our baby and see if God had blessed us with a baby boy or girl?!  This past year has been full of so many new adventures, eye opening understands, and pure joy:discovering a deeper prayer life and seeking God for how to put our baby to sleep because we want sleep too, giving grace to myself as God showed me who He was creating me to be as a mama in this new season of life, being reminded that I don't have to parent alone, that God has blessed me with a husband I can lean on, and a wonderful loving father to our sweet Teddy bear, and that's just a few. How quickly a year has flown by, someone once said "the nights are long but the years ...

Walking By Faith part 3

Good Morning wonderful readers!       "This   is   the   day  which  the   Lord   has   made ;  Let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24    What a beautiful bible verse to meditate on this morning! I find myself falling more and more in love with God's word everyday I grow closer and more deeply with him. Don't you?! (:     Part three of my four part post begins this morning in July 2018: God gave me so much  inspiration  to continue illustrating His word. These were just to start to my card designs He gave me a vision for...    Since I was just about a few months into my pregnancy I was beginning to see and understand God's creation of life in a brand new way! " For You  formed my inward parts; You   wove me in my mother’s womb.  I will give thanks to You, for  I am fearfully and wonderfully made" Psalm 139:13&14    That bri...
