I was listening to a man of God some time ago, when I heard him say: Children will be what they see! Now, as a child of God, as a Woman of Warfare follower, let me ask you, what do you see? If you didn’t have good role models for parents you now […]
Every morning you’ll hear me at it again. Every morning I lay out the pieces of my life on your altar and watch for fire to descend. (Psalm 5:3 The Message) Even though my mother (God rest her soul) inducted me into a lifestyle of prayer, it was not always easy to maintain a […]
Today, I received a letter in the post. The envelope indicated that this letter was from Buckingham Palace, residence of Her Majesty the Queen. I’d completely forgotten that I’d written expressing my good wishes to her and her family for 2020. Now, I don’t normally write to the Queen, but I’d wanted to […]

Did you know that Jesus once said that it is important we love ourselves? No? Then let me show you from the Bible. Hear what he has to say on the subject below: …“Of all the commandments, which is the most important?” (emphasis mine) Jesus replied, “The one that says, ‘Hear, O Israel! The […]

I wish, Carol! Other than with my eating, I have a lot of learning about discipline. But I’ve learned throughout my life that the things I thought I would regret one day actually helped me become who I am today (think: teen pregnancy, divorce, lifestyle choices) so I no longer regret but instead learn from anything I do that may not have been my best choice. Discipline would prevent me from making those type decisions, though sometimes it isn’t even about that. Sometimes we go left when going right would avoid a traffic jam. Instead of regretting, we can ask the Lord, “What can I learn while I am here?”

I like that Shell Vera. Thanks for elaborating and continuing the conversation. I need to take a leaf from your book and instead of regretting what I’ve done, or failed to do, move on and learn from my experiences.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me this helpful and enlightening comment.
