What I Love About Sunday

I’d like to take a moment to share a little bit about myself and my intentions for this blog. I am a Christian, grew up Baptist, but Im more non-traditional these days. I am married to a wonderful husband who works tirelessly to provide for his family and still finds time to be with us. I am a mother to 3 rowdy but crazy smart boys ages 15, 13, and 9. We have one cat named Max. He’s a black and white tuxedo cat, fat and happy. Also, I turned 40 this year, and im struggling with that…

I was a hairstylist for 18 years. I was an independent stylist for 10 of those years. That means that I booth rented and/or made house calls during that time. I continued to work for my clients even when I wasn’t employed by a salon. There were a few years when my kids were very young that this was our saving grace.

I have also been an independent beauty consultant with Mary Kay Cosmetics for the past 8 years. To be honest, it’s been more of a hobby than a career. It’s gotten us through some difficult times, though.

In 2021, I felt God impress upon my heart to resign from my cosmetology career. I obeyed, but it wasn’t easy. A few months later, He revealed His purpose for letting go when He called upon me to preach. A year later, I was ordained as a pastor at my home church. Being a pastor has been the most challenging and yet rewarding experience by far. I know that many people say that about parenting, but I believe it’s true for pastors as well.

In 2023, I was inspired to write a book. I published that book in 2024. It’s called Becoming A Woman After God’s Heart. You can find it on Amazon. This book is my first try at composing my testimonies that show God’s presence in our everyday lives. I give God all the glory and praise for the content of that book as well as the content on this blog.

I’ve thought about creating a blog for a couple of years now, but I didn’t know who,what,where,when,or how to even begin. But today, I decided it was the day for step one.

My intentions and hopes for this blog are that the readers will be inspired, encouraged, and uplifted through each piece they read. The message that God has put on my heart to share is this: God is everywhere, in everything. He is with us always. He is our strength, our hope, and our joy!

May you all be blessed, and remember that YOU are a BLESSING!💜
