Jesus, Coffee, and a Candle

Hey hey hey!! How are you today? Are you happy, or are you a "grumpy grumpfish" today? Lol!

If you are a grumpy grumpfish today, it could possibly be because of how you started your morning.

Part of being refreshed is being intentional about how you start your day. Starting off on the right foot has to be a conscious decision.

Developing a morning routine is so important. It takes a tiny bit of effort, but it is so worth it! Your family, coworkers, and friends will appreciate it!

Spending time in the presence of the Lord in the morning provides me with the strength and patience that I need to accomplish the day's tasks, helps me to keep my focus on Him, and gives me direction, clarity, and grace to take on the day.

There is nothing like starting off the day with coffee, Jesus, and a candle.

The Wonder of God's Love

Hello Beautiful!! I have something very special to share with you today.

You are on God's mind, and He wants to remind you of His love for you.

But first, please ask yourself, how do I view God? How does God view me? Take a few minutes to ponder that and write it down if you must.

Some look at Him as being this great, big being, sitting in a chair...looking down at us, waiting for us to make a mistake so that He can chastise and punish us.

Some view him as being this celestial Santa Claus, believing that everything we ask for He will or should give it to us.

Although He is a God of judgement and certainly chastens those He loves (Hebrews 12:6), and the bible tells us that we have not because we ask not (although the concepts concerning this scripture have been misinterpreted by many to fit personal desires), these are just portions of His character.

God's motive for creating you, protecting you, caring for you, and sending His son Jesus for you is simply because of this...

HE LOVES YOU.

Hampton Plantation

I so hope that you are enjoying your summer! Despite the heat, it is such a wonderful time to create memories that will last a lifetime!

My husband loves all things history. So for father's day, he wanted go and visit one of the hidden jewels of this area, Hampton Plantation.

Although we are big about being tourist in our own town, we had never heard about this awesome piece of history until William happened to run across it on the internet one night. So, we took a 45 minute trip up Hwy 17N to McClellanville , SC. It was well worth the trip.

Sitting at His Feet

When I first got married, I lived in Beaufort, SC. The ministry that we are a part of is in Hanahan, SC (in the greater Charleston area). So, if you are from this area, you have gathered that we lived about 1 and 1/2 hours away from our church.

But that did not stop us from being faithful to the ministry.

Autumn Rains

So tell me.. is it hot enough for you? Girl...smh. I am a southern girl to my core. I don’t particularly care for colder temps (sorry my northern friends), and I really enjoy summertime. But honey, let’s just say that this Charleston heat takes it to another level! I really could do without my makeup melting off of my face and me looking like I just took a shower fully clothed after walking around the block. So, I choose to enjoy the beauty of the south from as many air conditioned spaces that I can get to.
