Well, I'm here again trying to figure out which road to take.  People around me tell me to travel a well known path, while my spirit says take the road less traveled. I've see too many people take the road I'm on and it looks boring.  I'm up for an adventure, no matter what it costs.  I tend to find myself trying to fit a mold society says I should fit in, but God has other plans..!!!! Matthew 7:13-14  "Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.  But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it. Following God's plan does require special attention and regulations do apply!!

It’s  nice to disconnect from society and it’s distractions. A peace you won’t find in Dallas Tx

One of our many night rides.  It's a get away from the apartment life, lol. Each day has it's own challenges.  Don't get distracted from the day to day and forget what it is you are working towards. In the morning the sun rises and sets every night, as we rise and sleep.  Try to start each day with a new perspective, and try not to let yesterday cloud today's thoughts.  Storms roll in without much notice, as do our problems when they arise from the darkness.  Keep faith in knowing that this too will pass.  Learn all we can to be more prepared for the next round.

A walk through the storms

Much too often I find myself walking into storms that I could have avoided. Why do I stray from my path more than I feel I should?  Maybe it's that I get distracted too easily; or I just get selfish and want things my way without even looking into what may lie ahead. I sometimes frustrate myself  because I know the calling on my life, but some part of me still ignores it.  Some of my gifts I have not learned to use to their full potential.  When using some of them I take it personal, and at heart feeling all the pain that doesn't belong to me.  Being a messenger isn't easy, especially when the calling comes from something much more powerful than ones self. I have began to realize that some of my dreams in the past were a warning for the future, possibly years ahead.  One in particular was walking through a large field with multiple tornadoes all over.  Standing at a vantage point, I watched as they danced around the open field. Some crossed paths, some merging with o

Directions? Who needs them...

Directions, im horrible when trying to explain them. I can't retain them when given to me verbally.  I don't know if I just tune out or plainly don't even listen. ““Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.  But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” Matthew 7:13-14 NIV                                    Being single was way easier, and I had everything I wanted and all the money I needed.  Now, I have absolutely nothing......  Nothing...      Starting a new life with someone does require a new style of living. So far when walking with God, I've learned that I'm sometimes stubborn and stripped of most or allot my possessions.   I don't miss my phone.  Doesn't matter where I am; the park, in the Uber, eating dinner, with friends, at the doctors office, grocery store, parents picking up their children

A look into the past...... year that is!

From the city to the country, he's followed me the whole way!! It was interesting to see Shane's reaction to the country.  Honestly I didn't think he would like it because it was so far out. Later in the year the trees pretty much grow over the road and create a canopy effect.  We probably spent days walking miles around just exploring and see what was around.  I loved that he enjoyed it as much as I do.  I love to get detached from the city every now and them.  Helps keep me sane maybe lol. Above is one of my favorites I took.  Was surprised the iPhone 6s+ would have even picked up the moon at all, but I love how it turned out.  I don't remember why we were out that late, it gets super dark at night. Not much left of this one. Cleverly hidden amongst the pines is a CopperHead I almost sat on. Gotta be more careful!

New beginnings

  Patience is they key.  I've come to learn that; “Impatience is not only a mark of immaturity and unbelief, but it is a mark of fleshly living.” Excerpt From: Wiersbe, Warren. “The Strategy of Satan.” Tyndale House Publishers, Inc., 2011-12-15. iBooks.  Blending two different lived together is never easy, but with perseverance, patience, and a few other key fruits it can be done.   The only differences we have is 17 years.  Yes it makes a relationship difficult, and many times I forget that there is that age gap between us.  On the plus side,we've almost reached one year, and it has been difficult and rough. Worth every moment.      A Better Beginning  A night stroll around Dallas, babe looking for abandoned places.  This one was quite an interesting find.
