Kissed By God

Kissed By God
I consider things like this as little love kisses from God...I known know but anyway...I'm standing in line at Lowe's and I'm ringing out and the power in the entire facility goes out. Well this beautiful older (asian) woman passes by my cart and says.." I have a yard full of beautiful flowers like the one you have. I've been trying to give them away! How much are you paying for that? ( as she points to my beautiful plant) . Well I have a yard full...and they're much more beautiful. My name is Mooly...here is my address...drive by..im the house with the huge garden of flowers. I give you as many as you want" :)

And she leaves with a huge smile

Then another woman waiting patiently(darker hue) says...Are you planting a garden? I respond that I'd love to if I could develop a green thumb! As the power surges on she says .."here swipe with my card. If it saves you a little bit that would be helpful right?" Smh in unbelief...I say "right! And if it helps you get.points we've helped each other". We smile.... and part ways... I leave feeling kissed by God...

Your Biggest Challenge

Say this when you're really ready:
I'm going to START running physically TOWARDS my goal in order to be the best that I can be for me....but STOP running spiritually FROM the things that God would have me to do in order to be the best me that I can be for HIM...

"Your biggest challenge isn’t someone else. It’s the ache in your lungs and the burning in your legs, and the voice inside you that yells ‘CAN’T’. But you don’t listen, you just push harder. And then you hear the voice whisper ‘can’, and you discover that the person you thought you were is no match for the one you really are. " Author unknown

Treasure those moments

Can you feel.... I mean really really feel when a moment is supposed to be significant? Yes...you can... IF you listen hard enough. I did that yesterday when spending time with the absolute best ♡sister LaurenI. A new ♡ connection Sandi said..go! Go and make memories....and I did just that.

I JUST thanked Lauren for allowing , even in the midst of the fireworks, chatter and laughter, those quiet introspective moments which are so so important to take.

Moments fly by...but the important ones, when sensed,  please just stop and take in the details. Capture them in any and every way possible. Hold onto what you see and how the moment is making you feel and then store it as a forever treasure...just as I did...those moments you'll never forget nor regret.

Feeling accomplished!

Dad... this one's for you...
Feeling like I accomplished something today. Just short of 6 miles , powerwalk/jog.
I found just the right song on repeat that propelled me onward.
Question: anyone under 5ft4 ever feel that you're closer to the ground on some days more than others???
Smh smh

Clear My Fog

There are times when we hinder God's operation in our life based on our own limited ideas and ideologies.

He speaks and we don't recognize his voice, He comes and we don't see Him nor recognize His face nor His attributes ...He doesn't appear as we've imagined using our wildest and limited imagination. He calls our name...but we don't recognize ourselves in it, because we don't yet know who we are nor call ourselves by the name He has lovingly given us.

My prayer: No boundaries, no limitations, clear vision, voice recognition, heart connection, self discovery

Go Get Life

Rise annnnd Shine! It's that time....Thanking God for another day; a chance to make a difference in someone's life . Yesterday is gone and there are no regrets.Each decision was approached with awareness and each choice today will be approached with intention. Challenge yourself in all 3 areas today: Mind Body and Spirit.  Apply your self in all 3 areas today: Nutrition, Strength and Endurance. Be mindful of everything you place in this body which is a precious temple; When you feel the weight of that situation PUSH through; when lifting challenge and PUSH a little more than you did the day before so that at the end of this day you can exhale with the reward of knowing you did all that you could.

Now...GO Get Life!

Temptation...

It's REAL. ..
As the smell of Kentucky Fried Chicken filled the house I hurried into the kitchen, gulped down 16 oz of room temperature water; quickly heated some organic Olive oil; chopped the onions and allowed the aroma to overpower the scent of chicken...I took a deep breath in and focused on a vision of the new version of me...

Continuing and now at peace i sliced and added the colorful aray of peppers-green, red and yellow (feeling mellow) diced some carrots and to wipe the memory away completely tossed in some fresh garlic and then lastly the thinly sliced apples and spinach leaves....

Yes...we conquered that one. I'm sitting and now savoring my good choice ♡

When God Puts His Finger On the Pulse

I believe that as.children, we display a proclivity for things that ultimately display our purpose and our passion. If watched carefully, a parent can identify what their child will be successful at. Often the pressure to do what is considered the norm, fears over not being "good enough" ; life experiences in general pull us away from what our true purpose is.....
But.... When God puts His finger on the pulse of what makes You You....watch out world! It's full speed ahead! Doors open, right connections are made; your life begins to flow in abundance!!!! That's the place we should all desire to reside in.

The State of the Banana

In response to the queation over my blackened over ripe banana: What I will usually do is freeze them when they become over ripe and use them for my smoothies either peeled or unpeeled.

Diabetics should avoid the overripe banana because the carbs turn into simple augers which can cause their glucose levels to rise. For the non diabetic however re riper the banana, the sweeter it is.

The spots on the peel actually indicate the amount of antioxidants present in the banana. As the banana ripens the level of antioxidants increase!
