The last time I had written I explained how the Lord had told me to pray over a womens meeting I attend instead of going that month. I was obedient and stayed home praying for these ladies. The Lord showed up in a huge way to these women. God moved among them and through them in ways they had never experienced before. The speaker that month told me that befor e she had made it to the building she was home with her husband filled with anxiety over what she was going to say and they prayed together. She said she cried a little before leaving her house. The enemy had been working to fill her heart with fear. As she was driving to the facility to speak God showed up to her throu a song that spoke to the depths of her bones about who she was in Him and that she could trust Him in every situation. Her heart was filled with gladness and he gave her a great peace that she hadn't had in a long time. She knew it would be ok.
She said she was calm as she spoke and God was moving through her as she spoke.
The Lord knows when the enemy will attack and sometimes he will send people to interceed on the behalf of others so that he can not hae a stronghold in the lives of those that they are praying for. I knew she was speaking but didn't know the amount of fear that would be pressing on her that day but God did and He wanted her and the other ladies to receive what he wanted her to deliver. I not only prayed for her but over that whole group of ladies and for the power of God to fall on them like they hadn't known before and he did. The sweet fragrance of our loving Father was there with them as He was at my house with me interceeding on their behalf through me.
I love when I get to see the end result manifested in what He has orchestrated. Thank you Jesus for allowing me to see you move in the lives of people around me. I am forever blessed because of those gifts.

Finding Balance In An Unbalanced World
It has been a year since I have blogged and I realize the treasures that are provided through reading other peoples blogs. So, I see it is time to get back in the game and share some insight and wisdom that God has given me with those of you who desire to read what I write.
On a regular basis I meet with single moms, married women who are in unequally yoked relationships and women who are seeking to find their place in this christian walk. All of these women are searching for balance in their lives. It may come through getting their houses organized, and through that process they realize that really they needed to declutter their lives, their hearts and minds. They start to work through their thought life to relinquish the lies the enemy has told them about themselves and in that process their house gets in order. When we learn to change our thinking we can also learn to change our lives. Some ladies need to talk about things that are going on in their relationships with their children, as they go through the process they begin to see new ways to implement boundaries in their life, as well as, the lives of their kids. Some of the women have disconnected from their spouses emotionally, physically and spiritually, but they desperately want to have the love they once had for their husbands renewed.
All of us desire balance in our lives and we all have one area or another that we probably need to look at and ponder over so we can have balance restored. When we realize that the desires of our heart has to start with us changing, us moving towards our goals with God. We must choose to say,"NO MORE!" to the enemy. When we decide to surrender to the plan that God has we give Him back the authority that rightfully belongs to Him. He is the one on the throne, day by day and little by little we will see changes happen and balance will come into our lives. We have to realize that it is a battle to regain what we have freely given to the enemy, and he won't relinquish it without a fight. But, as long as we praise God for the victory and leave the pride at the door all things are possible, if only we believe.
Are you in the same place as some of these women? Has fear, discouragement and pain from being hurt turned you away from believing what should have been true in your mind? The deceiver is busy trying to take us out of relationship with the Father. None of us desire that in our life. None of us want the enemy to run us into the ground. Sometimes we get complacent in where we are and allow the enemy take the reigns in our life. Things slowly turn from our one true love and begin going down hill little by little and we don't even realize it until we are so far down that all we can do is reach for the One True God to get us up and out again. This is Need-Love. That is why we have to constantly be in a place where we are seeking Jesus Christ to fill our need-love for Him, it is love that only He can fill and no other. God says throughout his word, "Turn away from your wicked ways and I will forgive you, I will love you again." We only need to take step one and we can move towards having balance again in this unbalanced world we live in, In Our Own Minds!
Are you a passionate women with a great desire for change in your life? Come back to the One True God. Let Him be the light and compass of your life so that you can have the balance you deserve by being an heir to the kingdom of God. Jesus died on that cross so that you can have freedom from the enemy. Seek God and give him the praise and ask Him for what ever you need. He will direct your path. Seek forgiveness for the lies that you have allowed the enemy to sow in your heart and turn back to God. He is waiting in the thrown room for you; all you need to do is walk through the shed blood of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and receive the everlasting gift of life. I am not saying the journey won't be hard, it will, but you can be victorious through Jesus.
When we have a desire that stirs us to movement there is nothing that can get in our way of accomplishing that task. When you are in alignment with Jesus all things are possible.
Praise God and have a wonderfully blessed day in Jesus Christ.

He Has Risen
Happy Easter!
I hope everyone is having a happy Easter today. Are you spending time with family today or having a quiet day in? I pray that today you reflect back and see the blessings that have been poured out over your lives. What a great blessing we have each day that we are alive. Live victoriously today. Don't worry about yesterday or what may happen in the future. Walk fully in today. This is the only day you have been guaranteed. Live in it , find joy in it and receive the blessings that come with it. May Gods joy and peace fill you today!
If you are feeling blue today and not in the mood to be festive, think about what you can do to change that mood or circumstance. Every day we have the option of staying in the low down, dirty thoughts or situations that have held us captive. Each day we have a choice to think and act differently. Even if we are not feeling it. Often we get so caught up in our feelings that we forget we have a choice to act differently, think differently or do differently.
If you feel you're captive in your own life, home or thoughts find ways to change that situation or change the way you let it effect you.
We have options everyday that we are alive, no one can control us unless we allow them too.
Start by seeking the Lord and asking Him to deliver you out of the place you are in, whether it be mentally, physically or emotionally. Listen for His voice and if it lines up with scripture, and what you know He would want for your life, begin thinking about how you can take steps to move in the direction He has shown you. Often we lose sight of what is in our best interest and think about everyone else around us instead.
Today take your thoughts captive and stop allowing your thoughts, emotions, feelings or situation control you. You deserve to be free, happy and joy filled through the Holy Spirit. If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior, what are you waiting for. He can give you everlasting life. He can deliver you from the strongholds that are keeping you bound. Ask Him into your heart today and trust that He will help you. Accept your position in the kingdom of God, as heirs to that Kingdom.
God wants us to keep our minds and bodies pure for Him. The way we think, the way we respond to things, people and situations. You have the opportunity to change, Jesus Christ can help you do that, we can't do it on our own. Believe me I have tried to go it alone and have failed miserably. When we seek God the Father for His direction and His will, our lives can be transformed into who we were created to be.
What is your best today? Think about your gifts, talents and passions and begin thinking of ways to work towards using them to glorify the Father and be a blessing to others today. You were made with a purpose. Find ways to walk in those gifts and you will find that you will be blessed, too.
Open scripture today, find a secret place to spend time with the Lord, talk to Him, listen for His voice, listen to uplifting, possitive music; these are all ways to help defeat the enemy from attacking your thoughts today. Take those thoughts captive and fill your mind with possitive words instead.
God Bless You and be safe,
Remember this scripture "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
(Philippians 4:13).
May you find victory today through the Holy Spirit.
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13)
If we know He hears us every time we ask Him, we know we have what we ask of Him.
(1 John 5:15)

TODAY I JUST WANT TO BE ME!
Help! I am In Somebody Elses Life and I don't know How to Get Out!
I Just Want To Be Me, but I don't know who I am!
Do you feel like the life you are living isn't who you really are?
Do you think somewhere along the way you picked bits and pieces up of other people, trying them on for size only to realize you don't know how to put them back down?
Have you ever felt as a women that you can't be yourself?
You know that there is more to you than you are giving, but you don't know how to let you come out to live and breathe as your true self?
Are there issues in your life that have caused you to be parylized and don't know how to move away from it but you know that you need to?
I have been in many of these places and know the benefit of having another person walk beside you to lift you up and encourage you when you don't know how to do it on your own. This is not a fun place to be in, I know from past experiences and I am sure will experience in the future. It can cause depression and heartache in our lives if we don't learn how to let go of it. Often we are parked there for days, weeks, months and even years. We are STUCK, we know we don't want to be here and desire things to be different, so why do we choose to stay in these places?
Often it is because we don't believe we have the tools to get out of it... Money, education, knowledge or support. Seeking a Christian Life Coach is a great way to help you assess where you are, and receive another persons perspective on things. Someone that can get your wheels turning and give you fresh ideas and a new perspective of who you really are, so you can start moving again.
Coaching isn't counseling, it is someone to encourage you and to motivate you to think differently, respond differently to old issues or help you work towards new goals, but haven't created the steps to do that yet. A Christian Life Coach seeks Jesus Christ for assistance within the situation. He is the one who can open our hearts and transform our minds and a Christian Life Coach can help by praying for you, asking thought provoking questions that you may have never asked yourself. God will work within you to open you up to new possibilities. He will give you insight and knowledge to help you out of your current situation and towards new goals and aspirations.
Christian Life Coaching is a great way to jump start the fire that you once had inside that burned out along time ago. Are you ready to get moving again? Are you willing to seek the Father for direction in your life and to free you from the strongholds that are on you or areas of your life that you can't seem to move from?
You no longer have to live as if in someone else's life. You can be the best you right now. It will take work on your part, but it will be worth it to finally be free of everyone else's expectations and walk the rest of your life in the shoes you were meant to walk in.
Let Go and Let God move you!
Ready, Set, Go!
Don't allow restrictions to cloud your mind and keep you from walking in the gifts, talents and passions God has given you. Just say yes, and take that step of Faith to begin the awesome journey Jesus Christ has created just for you.
Love and Joy in Jesus Christ,

I want to be like you!
A few months ago my son and I had an opportunity to visit San Francisco with my parents. It was a beautiful, windy day. The seals were barking at peer 39 and the Mimes and Street Performers were putting on a great show. It was such a fun day. My little boy enjoyed the actor posing as Jack Sparrow from "Pirates of the Caribbean", he though he was the real deal.
The greatest thing for me was watching my son mimicking his Papa's every move, he is in awe of his Papa.
It is such an amazing gift to see my child love my parents as much as I do. Growing up we always think our parents don't know what is best, and we work so hard to be different than they are. But as life progresses we see more of them in us than we ever thought possible.
Each one of us can look back over our lives and say we wish this would have been different or that, but it is in those uncomfortable times that we learn and grow. Of course that growth was not always in the way we would have liked, but when we reflect we see how those situations molded and shaped our lives into the women and men we are today. I can see there were choices my parents made and that I made that weren't the best decisions for my life, not always lining up with God's word. But I am learning from my past to make better choices, so I can be the best me possible. I strive to make conscience choices to grow and change seeking God's likeness as my model, rather than stay the same. Life is more exciting and more fulfilling because of those choices and the peace that passes all understanding is in me now.
In many areas of my life I felt shame and disappointment; wishing that choices would have been different, but as I grow older I understand that through those heartaches and bad decisions I became stronger and wiser. I understand that I no longer have to be the person I was in my past, and I can make decisions to walk each day out better than the day before.
"I am no longer who I once was", are you?
As a mother and wife I see areas that I still need to address, over come and be free from. I see these things, but they no longer control me in a negative way, now it is just insight into areas that need to be removed, clarity of things that need to be changed. I am free to walk with Jesus because He has already forgiven me and I also forgive myself. That was my problem in the past, I didn't forgive myself for the choices I made, that impacted my life in a negative way. So I was bound, not able to move becuase I chose to stay there in those dark places, that really weren't so dark. But I thought they were at the time. I have found freedom in Christ.
Now I have the tools to focus on a future with more fun, more passion for life and more laughter. I am seeking Jesus Christ to help me,and guide me. He is my strength when I am weak!
I have a peaceful, joyfilled life now, because of forgiveness of self and forgiving my parents, too.
I have learned some great things from my parents over the years that I want to share with my son and instill in him, and some I choose to abandon, and I am the best mommy I can be.
My parents are amazing people they have hearts bigger than any I have ever seen. They did their best when they were raising their children; and not with the greatest tools to chose from while doing it, but it was what they had been give. Tools they learned from their parents, their upbringing, and from their own childhood; some were possitive and some weren't. I am able to see things from a different perspective now. I see we are all a mess in one area of our lives or another, but when we look back and learn to make different choices in our future, wiser choices, we have the ability to move and our lives can be transformed.
My parents know more now than they did when I was a child, and they are reflecting that through how they love and care for their grandchildren. They are seeking Jesus Christ with all of their hearts, running after Him for guidance and wisdom for their lives, and that is so precious.
We must never stop learning and never stop growing. It is only when we think we have it all figured out that we stop growing, stop learning, stop changing and stop moving forward.
I vow to never allow that to happen to me. God will always be my map to success and freedom. His word will always be where I find strength, it does not come from me, but it comes through Jesus Christ into me... Praise God!
I am excited for my child to have a happy, fun relationship with my parents. They have a lot to offer my son, and they have tools now that they didn't have before. It is exciting to see them through different eyes, not as a child, but as an adult, and as a parent trying to figure this whole thing out, just as they had to do.
The only difference for me and my husband is that we are focused on God guiding us from the start, and He is breaking off the lies the enemy tries to tell us, one by one; just as my parents are doing now.
We can all be transformed into the likeness of God, and He can pour into us His love, peace and joy so it over flows out of us and into those we meet, know and love.
I hope you have a beautiful day and find a time to reflect on the changes that have taken place in your own life as you have grown and moved throughout your life. Run after Jesus Christ with your whole heart He is there, ready and waiting.
In His Strength and Joy I leave You,

Welcome!
Hello,
Thank you for visiting my site.
While you are here I hope that you see that you are beautifully and wonderfully made! God has created you to be unique and special. God has a purpose for your life and is excited to reveal it to you, today!
As a Christian Life Coach my passion is to inspire, educate and empower women to be all God has created them to be. Helping women break through their fears and insecurities; so they can understand the gifts, talents and passions God has created in them. And learn to walk in His truth about who they are in Him.
It is exciting to come along side of women in their journey of revelation, as they seek the Holy Spirit for a deeper understanding of who they are in Christ and what they are created for.
When women come for Christian Life Coaching it is exilerating to see they are seeking more of Jesus, more of the Holy Spirit in their lives. And are open to receive the blessings that come through finding freedom in Jesus Christ. There is nothing that can stop what the Holy Spirit can do when we come seeking and wanting more of God.
God has a huge magnificent picture of our lives and wants us to catch His vision for our lives.
We as women of Faith in Christ, and those seeking and wanting to know His truth; we can receive freedom: Freedom from regret, freedom from strongholds, freedom from being stuck. We can learn to de-clutter our lives, simplify our lives so we can live the fullest life possible through Jesus, and we can walk in our core values and move beyond stinking thinking and the lies the enemy has been whispering in our ears.
We can learn to walk in the truths of God's Word and ALL he has for us. Blessings can flow when we come to a place of vulnerability in Jesus Christ. Freedom can be ours when we realize that God sees us as valuable and precious. We can begin to work and move into the blessings of God; to be what He has made us to be and see ourselves as He sees us.
Joy Comes! His strength is moving in and through us!
When we are abiding In Jesus Christ we are inspired and empowered to walk by faith in the gifts, talents and passions that He gave us. Especially in areas that we had fear and unable to step into the gifts He gave us. Or maybe we didn't have clarity in those areas because we weren't abiding in Him and seeking Him for His direction.
Often we find our selves living focused on our wants and desires, living according to the worlds standards of success and not Gods.
We can learn to look back, reflect, and learn. Reflection allows us to see the hand of God and how He moved throughout our lives especially in the areas we thought we were bound to forever.
Christian Life Coaching can help us learn to listen for the voice of God and we can be educated through the Holy Spirit.
As a Christian Life Coach it is exciting to walk in the fullness of what God has; seeking balance daily through life's transitions. I remember daily to keep my eyes on Him and serving Him, so the enemy can not invade my thoughts.
I am deeply in love with Jesus and am excited and grateful for what I have received through His gift on the cross. I want to honor and show respect to Him by serving him; in my family life, as a wife and mother, in my church and in my responsibility as a Christian Life Coach. So I can reach and teach others to have the freedom in Him that I have found.
We can all move in the gifts, and passions He has given and be able to grow in our walk with Jesus Christ. Through the Holy Spirits promptings, by studying the Word of God, the Bible and seeking wise, biblical counsel.
When we do we are ready to receive His blessings and freedom. We can be all God has created us to be and can share with others the truths of what Jesus Christ has done: in us, through us and for us.
Thank you for visiting and I hope that the articles you read inspire you and open your heart to God in a more profound way.
