Trust did not come easy for me. Actually, I was unaware that I lacked the ability to trust others. Jesus has proven to be trustworthy and therefore, I have chosen to put all of my trust in Him! So freeing :-)

Was going to my car to get my tennis shoes for a search warrant and saw this penny on the ground next to the trash can. HE put that there for me. HE so knows my #love language! "Trust me sweet child." Yes, that's what He's saying..................

We have a space in our hall at church that we know as the "help yourselves to anything on this table" and yesterday, in the midst of my busyness, I noticed these gorgeous flowers. I was rushing and my hands were already full, but I could not stop staring at these beautiful white roses. So I picked a few, took them home and put them in some fresh water and yes, they are in my bathroom so that I can see them several times a day.

Although it was raining, I still went out for coffee. But before I exited my car, I was reminded by the Holy Spirit to text my sweet sister Laurie. Just wanted to remind her of something important. There was a car parked beside me at the coffee shop and after I hit "send" the car beside me had pulled off. As I exited my car, there was a penny where the car was parked. If I hadn't been texting, I would have missed it :-)

God knows that pennies are my thing. Yes, I said it in pic #66 and I'm saying it again. Lol
I found this one while waiting at the pharmacy having a perscription refilled. In my ability to "help" keep things organized, I was fixing the candy on the shelves by the counter and found this :-)
Dr. Charles Stanley, my second favorite Pastor once said, "There is a blessing in the waiting!"

Pause: WOW! I'm at picture #70. It's so much fun being of the moment of what makes me happy. The list can go on and on and on, but I'm committed to just 1 picture a day...and trust me when I say that it's not so easy to choose! So, today it's this.............these are so freaking yummy, especially when you keep them in the fridge. Sad face: I'm all out for now, but I'll be happy again tomorrow when I go to Costco to get me some more. Yes, His grace abounds even when it comes to #chocolate!

These are all true and it is truly how I feel. In Christ Alone, my #freedom is found! Hallelujah!
Galatians 5:1 "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."
2 Corinthians 3:17 "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom."
John 8:36 "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed."

God knows that pennies are "my thing!" He's placed them in very significant places for me and me alone. He gifted me with one this past Thursday after I'd sat with a sick friend. I held her hand for 2 hours and went I was headed home, I stopped to get gas and there was a penny on the ground. She passed away the next morning.
And today, there were 8 cars parked in front of my office and as I got out of my car and put my foot on the curb, there was a penny. Just for me! I'm so his little girl and he so delights in me! :-)

Love these shoes. I bought them in Miami last year when I went to visit my sweet son. They remind me of "Sex In The City!" I'm Carrie, minus all that "sex!" Lol

God is repeatedly whispering "trust me...." And, He is repeatedly proving to be #trustworthy. He confirmed that on the beach in Rohobeth last weekend and by using Lynn to tell me so. Yesterday, He did it again when He told my sweet sister, Melanie to buy this for me. I was just standing in the sunlight minding my business when she walked up to me and placed it in the palm of my hand! OH HOW I LOVE ME SOME JESUS! The One who knows me! <3>

Last year my sister in Christ, Caroline gave me one of these but it was orange w/a blue Morpho on it. So, when I saw this box in the foyer of my condo unit with my name on it, I got so giddy inside as I anticipated it was the same thing from last year. They don't last forever, but truly....nothing does besides the Salvation of God.
Sorry, I can easily get off subject when it comes to Jesus!
Anyway, this was in the box and I was teary eyed indeed. I'm a free spirit butterfly and I just love people who know my love language! I so "heart her" thoughtfulness when it comes to me. #PRICELESS

I love, love, love oreo cookies. Strangely enough, I don't like the cream and neither does my dad or my son. My coworker was eating some and I felt a bit envious. But because God gave me the Spirit of self-discipline, I didn't eat any. I'm cooking at church tonight and we'll have more than enough sugar. Lol

God gave me a ginormous window beside my desk because he knew that I would be working with "people" who do not like sunlight. I don't care how hard you try, you cannot keep the Son out. Lol

His PROMISEs are true! If we search for Him, we will find Him when we seek Him with all of our heart. I found this "thing" on the ground yesterday and to me, it resembles a heart! And not only that, Cathleen had just read Jeremiah 29:11-14 that morning during church service.

I love chocolate almond icecream....not just any kind but the flavor at Dunkin Donuts. It's seasonal and so, so #BLISSfully yummy! Lol

Being at the BEACH makes me happy beyond words......and yes, any beach will do. This one just so happens to be Rohobeth Beach. I'd never been before and what a better time to go than to go with my sweet little sister Missy and The Church By The Chesapeake for their annual Women's Retreat!!!!!! Only Jesus!

I was at the library, but decided to sit in my card and study. Praises and tears began to flow because of His goodness, grace and mercy. Not only that, my presence and my obedience was able to bless a mom who's son just found out that he has cancer. She walked up to my car and thanked for me a sign that I have taped on my glove box. It reads, "What Did You Do For Jesus Today?" She was lead by the Spirit to come over and speak with me. Prayers for Richard. Lord, you are the God who heals!
These were my tear drops...

I love, love, love candy apples. I could make them, but why not wait until fall when they make their grand entrance at the local grocery store?!?!? Lol

This is the book we are currently studying. I just love Beth Moore and her passion and energy for Jesus. I am so excited to see what the Lord is going to reveal in my life through this study. One of the first things that Beth talked about was coming outside of our comfort zones and our "clicks." I'm so glad that I did that years ago. And, wow....I've met some amazing people since bursting from my cocoon. Not only that....one of her recent statement's couldn't have been more true. She said that the very next person you meet could become one of the most dearest people in your life. And guess what? I just met a woman name Denise Fuller and she's a Christian, a writer and a blogger just like me. How cool is that?!?!?! Way cool if you ask me!

I love this photo because even though it's been seven months, I still enjoy juicing. Hey....don't you dare judge this "juice" by the cover/color. It's so yummy. It's spinach, ginger, cilantro, carrots, an apple, a pear and a few slices of mango!

I love this picture because it's so appropriate for where I'm currently living. And I say currently only because when God is ready to move me, I want to be in a place of obedience and take my memories of living on the beach with me. I will not pout...at least I pray that I don't...

This is my daily wake up call. I usually get up at 4:00 am but I over slept and by the time I heard the alarm, the time on the cell was displaying my birthday so I took a screenshot. But then again, it was also my day off so I was more than entitled to sleep in. Yep, I love that He gives rest to thos HE loves!

I love this picture because my sweet little sister, Nichole and her husband, Jeremy are having a baby girl. Yay!!!!!!! I'm having a god-daughter and I could not be happier. I simple cannot wait hold her, smell her, kiss her and love on her!

I love this pic that I took :-)
I love it because it says, in my opinion - "stand out!" I captured the time on my screenshot because it's my birthday. July 14th :-)

My sweet friend Trish sent me this pic from England. Now that I have it here, I can always come back and view it as a reminder of God's sweet gift....a beautiful flower from a beautiful friend.

It doesn't matter how many times I tell people not to buy me gifts, they keep on buying me gifts. Lol
Whenever they see butterflies, I immediately come to mind. How cool is that?!?!
I truly have no room in my little condo for any more gifts, but that doesn't mean that I won't continue to accept them and treasure them. Knowing that I'm on someone's heart; that they're thinking of me and wanting to express it....that's truly priceless to me! So with that being said, keep on buying me stuff......lots of stuff! :-)

On this day I had to work late and believe it or not, there was no rush hour traffic as I headed home. Just driving along with my arm out the window and the sun on my skin! I glanced at my wrist and saw this as a "photo opt" Yes, my kinda drive :-)

My sweet son is on vacation in Miami and was asking about the word for the day. The Spirit has anointed me to deliver encouragement daily to those whom he has chosen and it has been two years and counting...
Surely not I, but the Spirit that lives within me! Oh how I love this child of mine. He is my sweetest #Joy!

This was King David's question tO the Lord Most High and I wholeheartedly agree...."Who Am I, Sovereign Lord...?"
I love that He is The Creator of the Universe and that He finds such great delight in me and my family! Oh what love the Father lavishes on His chosen children!

This is my birthday chair from 2011. I bought it used for $20. I love the color orange, and then, my sweet sister Kara made this cover for me on Christmas (2013). I love the color orange and butterflies, so it's just an ultimate feeling sitting in this chair and reading many of my favorite books! Yep, it's one of my happy places.

This confirms that my writing is what I'm meant to do! I wasn't meant to write just in my diaries as a young girl, I was meant to take all that pain and growth and share it with the universe :-) I guess it's the main reason why I have numerous blogs. Lol
