Owing my mistakes

A lot of mistakes happen in our lives and we disregard or refuse to own it. This is not the best nor the healthy way to deal with our mistakes. We need to own our mistakes and hand them over to God so we can let go, learn and heal. I used to blame my ex-husband for everything that happened and refused to see the mistakes I made or accept and own my own mistakes. My mistake was I allowed someone else to make my decisions for me. I totally lost my identity, I lost who I was because I allowed some else decide who I was, what I wanted, what I wanted to do or say and how to live my life. I gave away the power God gave me and the person God made me to be. My mistake was doing nothing. Doing nothing is not making a decision, sitting back and pretending not to see what is going on is not going to fix the problem, pretending things will get better without doing anything is not being honest with yourself Passivity didn't help me, it made me sad and suicidal. You have to accept what i...

Happy Birthday Mom

Happy Birthday Mom. I can’t believe the last time I spoke to you was nearly 28 years ago! Time slips by and life goes on, but from my heart you are never gone. Not a day goes by when I don't think about you - I think about what you will have said or done in certain situations. I remember all the many lessons you taught me. Mum, you are still a part of my live, even if only in spirit. I was so blessed to have you as a mother. I miss you, I love you and thank God for you always.

Happy 19th birthday to my son

To have a son is to be given one of life’s greatest gifts. Dara, you are my greatest gift from God and I am so blessed that you are mine. I am really grateful to God that I get to call you SON.

Be thankful

The way we choose to see life determines how we feel. If we choose to see our life through the lens of thanks we will be joyful but if we choose to see life through the lens of what I don't have or what I wish I have we will be dissatisfied. When we choose to see or look for God at work in our lives we can't but be "THANKFUL" and be "JOYFUL" When we choose to see or look for God at work in our lives we will find many marvellous things to be "THANKFUL" for. Each day, you can live with thanks - not because your perfect health, not because the perfect bank balance, not because of the perfect house, not because the perfect job, not because of your perfect family. You can live with thanks because you are saved, You can live with thanks because the Lord has rescued you from sin.You can live with thanks because you are loved unconditionally, You can live with thanks because The Lord is always with you, You can live with thanks because Your heavenly Fat...
