Hello Friends and happy Monday! I hope your week has started off great. I have often thought of Mondays as days to reset. Do you enjoy Mondays? This week I am talking about how life is filled with so many amazing things!
Lately, I have been doing a lot of thinking and talking to God.
One thing I love about the Spring season is the many beautiful treasures that God provides such as the wild flowers on the side of the road. I took a short road trip over the weekend and I was so happy to see the bluebonnets in bloom.
Do you enjoy the bluebonnets? What is your favorite wildflower?
Life is filled with so many amazing things!
Luke 12:27, “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.”
When we take time to admire all of the wonders that God has provided, we would realize how much He loves us. Just think about that!
Make time for God not only in His word but in the beauty that He provides.
Talk to you soon.

Happy Spring and happy Monday! Friends, I can’t believe we are already in the Spring season. Spring is probably my favorite season of the year. Life doesn’t seem to slow down. Today, I am sharing tips on staying focused in the busyness of life!
1 Peter 5:8 states, “Be sober, be alert and cautious at all times, that enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.”
How do we stay focused in a busy world?
Distractions are everywhere. Just when I think I’ve set an appointment with God, something comes up.
Spending time with God takes a purposeful effort. Once you make a decision to spend time with God, the enemy will throw all kinds of distractions at you.
Here are a few tips to help you stay focused.
- Find the time of day that you are at your best. Morning is the perfect time for you to spend time with God if you are a morning person. If you enjoy staying up late, make time for God then.
- Make an appointment with God and find a quiet place. I didn’t see the importance of this until a few years ago.
- Keep a notebook or journal handy. I keep a notebook on my nightstand at all times. I also carry a notebook with me when I go out.
- A little is better than nothing. We think that spending time with God means spending 2 hours in prayer. That is not true. If you have the 2 hours then that is great. If you have 30 minutes then make the most of the time you have.
- You are never too busy. We tell ourselves that we are just too busy to make time for God. We make our own schedule. Make time for God!
I believe, if we would implement these tips on staying focused in the busyness of life, we would see a big change.
God help me to not get distracted by time wasters!

Happy Monday, friends! We are already into February. I hope that your Monday is going well. This week I am talking on peeling back the layers to reveal new life.
I have been in real estate for a while now and have seen a few renovations. My husband and I have been through a few projects at our home. I have seen many projects where people have taken up the carpet in their home and find hard wood flooring or scrap wall paper off the wall to find shiplap. Even still, we do love to update our homes with the new trends.
To peel back the layers, it takes some tearing down which is truly painful.
I believe this is what God does for us. As we continue to study God words, He continues to peel back the layers of hurt, deception, and lies from the enemy.
Once these areas that weighed us down is peeled back, God replaces them with peace, love, and joy. All of our value and worth come from God.
Isaiah 54:11 states, “O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.”
I believe this is the year of restoration. It is time to restore what is old and peeling back the layers to reveal new life.
God will rebuild you with precious jewels. May you week full of the peace of God!
