Old Girl Dead, New Girl Reborn.....

Hi Family, So on Friday I told you about a couple of things. My love for Disney movies (don't judge people!) and 7 sins per the world and then the 7 per The Word. So since the Lord brought me to the 7 sins per the world first, we are going to follow His lead. His way is best right? So after thinking about the seven dwarfs and the 7 deadly sins... I thought about the characteristics about those sins. And how they are in us, but we don't see them. Maybe not all of the sins, maybe only one. Maybe you are so absolutely faithful and perfect in life that you have none. But for the majority of us, myself included, we have at minimum one of the seven. They are sins that are hidden even from themselves, but like a mirror they can usually see their reflection in others. For example, a prideful person cannot see the spirit of Pride or Arrogance in themselves. But they can see it in others. Because of these types of sins (which for MY OWN purposes, i'll call them behavio

Psalm 51:7 NLT Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean: wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Hi Family! If you know me, in my inner heart, you know that I'm a Disney fan. I had to take the day off work yesterday and I got caught up with the kids watching Disney movies. Starting, of course, with a new Disney movie because Lareina kept asking to watch it. It was Descendants 2. Now, let me be honest, I saw the first Descendants movie and I LOVED IT. LOL! So although I fought and fought not to watch this one for weeks, I still ended up watching it yesterday. I hadn't realized how much I would connect with the movie. Outside of the songs and the dancing and the good vs. evil plot of course. But the message was a really good message about being your own Authentic You. And how important it is to be your own authentic you ESPECIALLY for and around the people you love. Because it's exhausting and truly debilitating (mentally and physically) to try to live up to the ex

Dear Lareina, I joke a lot and say that fourteen years ago today, I say i "Evicted" you. I guess being young and having lots of pregnancy hormones, I was pretty selfish. I didn't want to share my birthday with you. Fourteen years later, I can tell you that sharing it with you, even by one day, has been such a highlight for me. You were the BEST birthday present anyone could ever give me. You are absolutely different from your brothers and sisters and I want you to LOVE that. Love everything about yourself. Don't worry what other people are doing or what they have. Put and keep your focus on God first, then your future. Everything else will come!! I Love you so very much!!! Your mommy always.
