The children of Israel were at a critical place. God comes to Joshua and He says “I’m going to lead you to the promised land. I’m taking you to the place that I was taking my people before and they didn’t make it because of their reluctance to live on my promises and abide with… Read more

It’s Friday Silly… Be OK Today.
My alarm clock went off this morning and my first thought was… why is my alarm going off this early on a Saturday. 🤷♀️😂… It’s been a long week. 😒 I get up and I wake up the girls and everybody is whining… them about going to school and me about going to work. Because yeah, we’d all… Read more

Pass on the Tea
Gossip. It’s just a grown-up word for tattle-telling. “Mom… I have something to tell you…”. “Mom… Jessica said…”. “Mom… Tracie just…”.
