A Daily Dose Of This And That

 


Writing for me is a form of relaxation. I have been meaning to blog but was having difficulties with what I was going to write.  For some of my blogs, I might have two readers and for some it's in the 100's.  Thus, for the few who decide to take the time to read, I will attempt to post something on a daily basis. It will be a little bit of this and that. I might write about something simple that took place that day to a study I plan to start on regarding the different women of the Bible. You might get a mini sermon from me one day and the next how much I love horchata. I invite you to once again to take a walk with me as I live this new and very beautiful life in North Carolina.  

I will start with the simplicity of the fact that as I write this, I am listening to the alto part for one of the songs we are singing in church on Sunday. I have the honor of being a part of the praise team at my church. It's been a very long time since I have done this and let me tell you, I am rusty. I'm thankful for the patience of the sound man when I don't sing in the microphone at practice. I will do better, I promise. Thankfully, he's probably one of the most patient of people I know. God bless Bro Brian and Sis Linder for allowing me to once again do something that I truly love and that's worship in song, just don't give me a solo, I'm good where you put me. 

Also, since I have moved to NC, I have befriended a horse. I absolutely love this horse. You will hear more about him in the days to come.  God is good.

RJ and College

Image
  RJ is a senior in high school and will be graduating in a few months. He applied to several colleges and received acceptances from 3 in California, 3 in New York and one in North Carolina. We heard from the last two on Friday. He has been given some amazing offers. I am so proud of him. He has worked very hard. One school is pretty much a full ride. It's now up to him to decide which state he wants to study in and what school he wants to do it in. He has a lot to factor in. I am praying for him as he makes this choice.  I want God's best for him.  I love my son and it's been a joy and honor to watch him grow into an amazing young man. God is good.

The Sound OF Freedom-My Story

Image
 The Sound Of Freedom was released into the movie theaters on July 4th 2023. A friend made me aware of it. I decided to watch it. It's based off of a true story of a brother and sister who were rescued from child sex trafficking. This is not a movie you take young children to. I do strongly recommend that every person who is old enough, to go and watch it. This is very real and it's happening in your world. I think it's time we wake up. Why is this so important to me?  Let me tell you a little of my story. My birth dad abused me as a child. He was also a part of a drug trafficking ring. He was also a part of child sex trafficking. He did this all while being a faithful saint and minister in the church. When I was in 5th grade, I started fighting back and slept with a baseball bat by my bed. He decided he didn't like that and one day he picked me up from school and took me for a very long drive. This was before cell phones. He didn't say a word, he just drove. Eventu...

One Month

Image
 RJ and I have officially lived in NC for one month. The people here are very kind and nice. Southern food is absolutely delicious. I can easily find a good place to buy a delicious taco. Coffee places are aplenty. It’s been wonderful to reconnect with old friends and even more wonderful to make new friends. Soon, I will start teaching and RJ will enter into 12th grade. We are currently looking at colleges. I can’t believe we have come to this stage in life. We miss our friends and family in NY. We especially miss Bethel. Our new church home is a gift. I am so thankful for them. Slowly NC is starting to feel like home.  God is good.
