I feel God’s Spirit…the Spirit of Elohim and His way with me. He is only this way with me. He is unique with all of His children. He loves them all but they each hold a special place in His heart. In Him. Together we come together and display the vastness of who He is…but even that just gives… Continue reading God’s Word to Me 4-24-13

Fighting Temptation
He caught me off guard. I thought, “he’s not into me…he’s looking at me like a sister…I’m safe”. I was wrong. Suddenly the friendly evening banter turned into sexual suggestions, painting vivid pictures of erotic positions in my mind’s eye. I fought the urge not to lean into him but gave into the desire to… Continue reading Fighting Temptation
The Amazing Race!
Ok, so I have a confession. I’m addicted to the reality show, “The Amazing Race”. Not a big deal right? Well, I’m super late in my addiction and I just finished season 3 but the show is now on something like season 23, so I’ve got a long way to go before I catch up!… Continue reading The Amazing Race!
To BE or Not to BE…Vegan
Today is day 4 of the 7-day vegan cleanse my Health Coach/Pastor, Rhonda Sharpley has put me on. I may have mentioned previously I was assisting her with a start up called Plan BE. Plan BE is a company whose mission is to train others in living holistic lives. So, dietary changes are only one… Continue reading To BE or Not to BE…Vegan
Letting Go of the Hot Dog
My BFF called me today and made a confession. “Nicole, my 3 year old wanted to feed herself her hot dog and yet I really didn’t want her to! I really wanted to hold on to the hot dog and feed it to her myself because I knew she would make a mess!” On the… Continue reading Letting Go of the Hot Dog
I Gave God My 20s
It’s been a while, and I thoroughly miss blogging. Life got a head of me there for a minute and I found myself just trying to keep up. So to update you, I have officially reached grown woman status…30 :-). To celebrate, I immersed myself in the love of those near and dear to my… Continue reading I Gave God My 20s
CRASH
Life offers a plethora of opportunities to run into others, whether it’s from the interior of a vehicle resulting in a car-on-car accident, or from engaging in a heated argument ending in hurt feelings and mountain high levels of offenses. Each incident proves to be a disruption in one’s day, rattle one’s emotions and upset… Continue reading CRASH
How to Overcome Heartbreak: Recovering from Misguided Love
I’ve seen it more often than not. A girl meets a nice guy, thinks he’s the one, ignores the red flags and lies to herself about the ones she can’t ignore. She gives him her heart. It doesn’t work out after “x” amount of time. They break up, she’s in pain and he’s moved on. … Continue reading How to Overcome Heartbreak: Recovering from Misguided Love
When Sparing Change Hinders the Gospel
Her dirty blonde hair hung limp at her shoulders. Baggy, dark clothes falling loosely on her frame. With no shame or hesitancy she made her way to me. “Can you spare $.25? I got to get to the bus.” She was a little jumpy but I could not attribute that to drug use…could just be… Continue reading When Sparing Change Hinders the Gospel
Looking Back
I’ve found myself reading one of my old journals lately. It’s been interesting to say the least. 24-year-old Nicole was living at home, aching to get out on her own with plans to buy a condo somewhere near her job and 45 minutes away from her mom (mom it’s been great you supporting me after… Continue reading Looking Back
