Strength

 Strength , how is it measured? Is it in courage or how we handle ourselves, is it how we over come? The question is if we don’t are we victims are we weak? 


I have a health condition that is not curable that is fatal

I go to the hospital many times all night fearing for my life and go home in the morning , shower and go to work I’ve never called a day out of work, is that strength ? 

I’m so broke right now I might lose my car because work has been slow and they slighted me $800 off my check I want to give up and cry , I don’t have help , is that considered strong . 


I don’t date , or hook up I been single for 6 years trying to be as sinless as possible waiting on Jesus to bring the right man, doing life alone . Is that considered strong ?


I’ve over come more things then you can imagine I don’t feel that is  necessarily strong but I have a strong faith . 


But I’m 45 , I’m getting worried . I’m tired , I’m about to lose everything and I feel helpless. I wish I could call out sick and hide away . As you can see it’s not in my character. But I feel like I’m going to fall. 


I feel alone. So if I’m so strong that is wavering tonight. 

I can’t take one more shoe to drop. I been pushing for so long , with out a break , with out a love , with so much physical pain . Sometimes oak trees fall . 


So tonight I will say a special prayer for God to not just save me but to hold me at the cross . To come meet me where I’m at because I need a miracle right now . 


If you’re reading this I’m asking you to pray for my mental health and that God will show up for me today .

New Day

 Things were rough the past 6 months , but the light is at the end of the tunnel. There was a specific person in my life who was tearing me down aggressively . I can take it that’s not my point , I was just tired and it put me mentally in a bad place . I felt like I was going into battle every day alone . But I wasn’t alone , God watched over me . Thankfully things are better !  I’ve just been praying for God to send me a husband. God has removed all the wrongs - where is the right ? I realized it’s seasons we must learn from. Also letting go of people who held your heart . How could I be free for someone new if I still loved the old … which was serving me nothing .  I really would love to start a business even if it’s on the side , I have some great ideas I just need time . Im meant for more I know it ! It’s just been a learning process  I have faith that God will bring him soon . I’ve been through so much all by myself . Single since 2019 !  I’m going to sleep...

What if I “ Can’t “

 As a single mom I can’t afford to call out sick or to put myself first . I spend 12 hour days at work trying to hustle every day to pay rent to pay bills . It’s a constant struggle.  When your alone there is no emotional support it’s just me and the harsh world praying to the Lord above to save us every month .  Although I’m a pretty bad ass person who works hard has epilepsy and can be in a hospital all night and still show up for work I’m beginning to feel burn out from life.  I need a break , I feel like I can’t do it any more . I’ve given up every single thing that matters for my job so I can pay the  bills . Is it worth it ? No . Do I have any other choice ? No .  My chances of winning the lottery are slim . So how do I make it better ? How do I fit in the gym where I used to go 3 times a day but now I’m to tired and I need to see my daughter on my spare time . How do I have time to write or to even go to church .  What about a relationship ?!!!...

Earthquakes

It’s 4:30 am I feel like I’m going to have a seizure it’s quite terrifying so I wanted to share what a seizure feels like , I don’t think people understand them , awareness is key . I have partial seizures so I don’t lose contiousness need to learn the spelling of that word but I’m awake through it all . Where a part of my brain is not firing off right and I begin to panic I have no choice and no reason almost like a panic attack or PTSD but worse . My seizures control my nervous system and my emotions do anything goes it’s a circus of high heart rate , sickness , vomit , mass fear , and the sheer belief that I’m going to die as my heart races so high I need to take a beta blocker . This typically last ten to fifteen minutes . They only happen at night . Due to my epilepsy I can’t drink or take anything that may raise my heart rate . This is serious . My seizures could in fact kill me . I never know when they will come but lack of sleep and stress are triggers .    Medicine...
