HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!! Are you ready to conquer the New Year? I feel as though 2020 put us into a state of Gratitude and not taking things for granted or lightly.  So here I am; taking a few steps back and setting a few goals instead of MANY. We tend to get stuck and or stressed in how many; that if we just stuck to at least ONE for the whole year; imagine what we would accomplish. We would pr...

When someone asks you; "What goals are you going to set for 2021?" Do you give them a blank stare or do you give them a list? What if I told you that you don't have to have a list of goals. You can just have at least one goal. BUT the one thing I will tell you is, you need to go in with an open mind to fail in order to succeed and accomplish your goal.  This is the time to take a deep breath, fall...

Have you ever thought about what Physical and Spiritual gifts you have?  Maybe you should!! These are gifts we need to show gratitude for. We have the blessing and opportunity to ASK GOD for more gifts. There is nothing wrong with asking.  But; what you see and what others see are two different things.  IF you don't know what gifts you have; ASK GOD. And see where He takes you. 

Judge not unrighteously, that ye be not judged, but judge righteous judgment.  Matthew 7:2 How do you judge righteously? We are all human and judge others automatically, but judging in a righteous manner, is a different angle. In judging righteously, how can we love one another. God said; "Love one another as I have loved you."  Wait; what? LOVE ONE ANOTHER?? Even the people we don't care for? YEP...

You ask and I deliver!  This week; I had a whole different topic in mind and ready to record, but after asking on the Sassy Mama And Her Life Podcast FB Group if anyone had any questions for me that they wanted me to address on my podcast, I WANTED to deliver my answer quickly.  I take everyone's thoughts and questions to heart, and I wanted to create a podcast about a followers questions and deli...

Many of us have positive role models we look up too, but do we ever look up to ourselves or even God for that matter? How can we help others with our gift if we can look up to own selves? Trust in the inspiration that is given to you, Trust that God wants you to succeed and not fail.    How are you using your gift to reach out to others?

The title is so fitting for the month of November right? Or better yet; for the entire year!!  If we gave more thanks every day; where would our mind frame be? What If I told you that we should give thanks for our weaknesses and our challenges? You would probably say I'm nuts; but I'm being serious. God has a plan for all of us, and what if we were given our weaknesses so that we turn to him more...

How are you staying connected with others? Zoom? Facetime? Marco Polo? Phone Calls? Are you staying connected with your family and friends? Do you even care? Listen to my story that I experienced with my friend when she got the news she NEVER thought she would get in her lifetime.    Don't take for granted what you have and who you have. 

It doesn't matter how slow or how fast you go; as long as you don't stop...you don't give up and you don't leave anyone behind.  Every tapestry starts out with one thread and as its created with more threads, more colors, it becomes a bond that cannot be broken.     

If we have Confidence, we have Trust If we have Trust, we have Faith If we have Faith, then we Believe!!!   Believe that what lies ahead is better than what you left behind.  The past is to be learned from, but not lived in. 

"Don't use Social Media to impress people; use it to IMPACT people." Dave Willis We as parents, as teachers, as role models need to do our part in educating, teaching and leading by example how we can impact people through social media.  Our teenagers are being impacted by so much negativity on social media, and why is it we are not teaching them the positive side of social media?  There are pro's...

What does LOVE mean? "Love Dissolves hate, soothes anger, comforts pain, heals relationships, casts out fear and transforms us and those who receive our love" How are we to love others if we struggle to love the ones in our own home? We need to redirect our actions to show and give love whole heartedly instead of it being forced.  What steps are you going to take to LOVE others more?

Have you ever experienced scrolling on your phone and looked up and thought; "Oh my gosh!! Where did the time go?" I certainly have more than once.  How can we prepare our minds for every needful thing so that our eyes may lift up and see? David A Bednar Said; "Procrastinating preparation leads to unsuccessful proving. If we just become hearers only we will not grow and succeed. But if we hear and...

We are in a time of our lives where we have so many opportunities to learn.  All of our learning and education has turned to an unimaginable direction. But it is our CHOICE in how we face it!!    "Our personal responsibility is to learn what we should learn, to live as we know we should live, and to become who the Master would have us become. And our homes are the ultimate setting for learning, li...

What Gift and or Gifts do you have? Do you hide them? Or Do you share them with others? The Lord has blessed us with these incredible gifts, and that we need to recognize what we have and what we can do for others.   Have you every thought what you do for your profession is a gift? I'm talking from being a mom, to a successful business owner.  We all have gifts. Lets night hide them; let us share...

Why do we choose to feel stressed instead of blessed? Feeling stressed takes so much out of us, whereas feeling blessed revives us and gives us so much to live for!! I'm here to not only help you, but to help ME.....(greatly) to re-wire our mind as we change our words from "I Have to" to " I Get To" I GET TO go to work (instead of saying I have to) I GET TO stay at home ( instead of saying I have...

"The Positive Dog by Jon Gordan This book is an easy MUST read.  I take many highlights from this book and share them with you.  Are you going to feed the positive or negative individual inside of you? Because which ever you feed, you portray.  Too often we wait for something to make us smile. We need to ACT for ourselves in engaging to WANT to be positive and smile. After feeding the positive sid...

Is education important to you? What have you learned or desire to learn?  There is so much to learn, but whatever you put into it, is what you will take out of it.  But, I'm not just talking about your education in school, I'm also talking about your education in the scriptures. How well do you know Christ?  Do you Desire to Learn more about Him?   As A member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latt...

You probably only hear this word in church or in the scriptures; REPENT!!! Sounds deep doesn't it?  Repentance is a change of mind and hear that brings a fresh attitude toward God, Oneself, and life in general.  Pride and Fear can be two culprits for keeping us from Repenting.    Listen to what insights I have to share

Do you ever feel like "Life is just Unfair? Do you ever ask; "Why Me Lord?   Well; I'm here to tell you....Why not you?  The challenges we face and go through are powerful lessons needing to be learned. BUT............. Are we learning them or are we just repeating them??   Now that's something to think about!!

I wanted so bad to have a mini table of my own of the 10 commandments. Number 3 resonates with me the most; "Thou shalt not take the Lord thy Gods name in Vain" What is Vain mean?    For your own selfish interest. My own selfish interest? But, Many times I don't even recognize how I say his Name.  Gods name should not be used in Anger or in shock, but should be used in worship and treated with res...

Ask before giving!!! There are times when we can't ask before we give something to someone Sometimes the opportunity arises where you just are inspired to give that person something. In my situation and other situations you can ask what they need instead of you ASSUMING what they need.  We need to learn to Ask questions.  The Lord encouraged us; "If any of you lack wisdom, let Him ask of God." "I...

Before I had my kids, I had this plan in my head on how many I wanted to have; 2 Girls and 2 Boys. They would be close together so that they would be best friends. My plan was rearranged on me The Lord had a different plan for me I encountered many experiences to TRUST and RELY on HIM. I needed time to meditate and pray I read; "and you will have a son and his name shall be Luke" If we have Faith...
