If I don’t tell you anything else I want you to know why prayer and bible reading is so important. You will not be, feel or get closer to God without spending time reading your Bible and talking to God. Seriously…it just won’t happen. God can use a variety of ways to communicate with us because He’s God however, He has given us two undeniable means that will work every single time. God does not desire that our relationship with Him nor the way in which we communicate with Him to be a mystery. In fact, He wants it to

My home is not super organized but there is one room that I try to keep organized, clutter free and tidy. My bedroom is my sanctuary, a place of peace and space for rejuvenation. One of the things that makes this room being so special is my bed. I’ve taken my focus off projects around the house and made our master bedroom a priority starting with our bed. This year we made an upholstered headboard and I invested in some nice bedding. The next thing I want to do is add risers to make the bed higher off the floor

I have yet to meet a women who does not know how to create a to-do list. Many times I find that women are very fluent in the art of creating to-do list…so much so that they even create them for their husbands and children. While we may all know how to jot down a bunch of things on a sheet of paper what I want to know is, “How effective is your to-do list?“ Do you have a sense of accomplishment at the end of the day or at the end of the list? Do you even make it

While we did gain twice as much bedroom space by moving our master bedroom downstairs we did not gain anymore bathroom space. In fact the size is about the same with way less storage. This bathroom has no cabinets and had only one built in shelf. When we bought the house we hung a 2 tier metal shelf and called it a day. That worked great when this was a guest bathroom, however once we moved down here we had to figure out how we would store our hygiene related stuff. Here are some ideas on how we keep our

Today I can truly say that I love my husband more and more each day I spend with him. Nowadays, we get along with hardly an argument. We do disagree on things like what I should cook for dinner but nothing more alarming than that. It’s taken us some time, self reflection and sacrifice to get to this point but in hindsight it was worth it. My husband and I often joke about how we even ended up married since from the  day we met we were rolling on a stormy sea. I was very argumentative and he was stubborn

We like weekends to be a fun time for our children. It’s the two days they get to spend the most time with us and we make that time count by intentionally planning activities where we are spending time together. I’m not one to break the bank when planning fun activities for the family. In fact, I try to make it as frugal as possible. Planning a movie night with your family is really fun and it’s really inexpensive it can be as inexpensive as a dollar or as expensive as you decide to make it just depending on what

You don’t know how many women I’ve met who skips at least one meal a day. I’m serious…I spoke with two at length at Starbucks and Publix within the last month alone. I thought it was just busy moms doing this but it’s busy working women too!! We can all agree that skipping entire meals a few times a week is not healthy. Skipped meals lead to overeating at other meals. It can also lead to headaches, irritability and low energy levels among other things. So, I’ve come up with a brilliant plan that should help me stop skipping meals.

We all know that after any length of time in marriage, things come up.   Work.  Kids.  Church.  Family.  Chores.  Sickness.  Life. If we are not careful, we will lose focus on keeping our marriage relationship a priority.  It happens to everyone from time to time, but keeping “dating” a real thing can be challenging.  It’s something we gotta carve some time out for and just make it happen. “Dating” our husbands helps to keep things fresh and it helps us focus on just them for awhile. Not the kids, not our girlfriends, not church groups, not Bible study, JUST

One thing I don’t like is clutter especially on my bedside table. If no other area in the house is clutter free when I go to bed, I especially like to make sure my nightstand is. I have a pretty big nightstand table simply because it serves several purposes. 1. Inspiration I keep some sort of framed photo on my nightstand whether art work or family photos. Waking up and seeing images that make me feel inspired is very important to cultivating joy in my day. I like to surround myself with things that make me happy. 2. Hydration I
