I've been on the bench for a month. It's the scariest place I've ever been. Especially since I have a family that depends on me and I have no backup

Updates on God's goodness! Fast forward I was placed on a new project last week.

And guess what, I've been placed on another project that starts after this one ends.

Only thing is, I almost got a new job that pays twice what I'm earning but didn't make it through the interviews. God is still good anyway!

When I had to do a second surgery and doctor said my condition could reoccur. I was scared but focused on God and got through it. I’m healthy now. Praise God

The attack on my family through my children. It really was a refinement for me as a Christian, understanding and standing in my role as a mother and not backing down on our believes while my children were bombarded with misinformation and untruths about who they are and what they should and shouldn’t be doing.

God doesn’t change and I won’t but balancing that with grace and love was the challenge.

I also went back to studying more specifically and found key scriptures that helped me with my resolve.

Luke 12:49
Do you think I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I have come to divide people against each other! From now on families will be split apart, three in favor of me, and two against—or two in favor and three against.


Father will be divided against son
    and son against father;
mother against daughter
    and daughter against mother;
and mother-in-law against daughter-in-law
    and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law

Stay strong and stay prayerful over your family, friends, communities and leaders
