Adela Told Me. . .

Hi everyone, It feels so good to be back to Faithful Friday's. I thought it would be a good idea to share what's been going on with me over the past few months while I've been away. I'd love to tell you that I have been on vacation since then but that is not the case at all! Life has been super busy as it always is. Balancing work and home life can be hectic sometimes. I am one of those people that wants everything on a schedule and in order. When things are not that way I tend to get really anxious and overwhelmed. I was completely stressed out and one area of my life in particular was the culprit. The stress began taking a serious toll on my body and no one in my life, myself included was happy about it! I am in the process of re-evaluating the situation and am trying to be patient as I wait for a new door to open. I know some of you have been praying for me during this time and I can definitely feel the comfort of those prayers. Thank you all for that! One t...

Hi everyone, I hope you've had a good week so far. Today I am going to share a frustration of mine. I can only assume that I am not alone in this. At least, I hope not. I planned on sharing this post because I have hopes that we can encourage each other. Let's jump right in! Do you ever feel like God is just constantly testing you? Like one thing after another is just getting on your last nerve and trying your patience?! I do (obviously) haha! As you've learned in past posts and videos on my FB Group... there is a certain area of life that I am majorly struggling in. This "area" has been the source of stress more so than ever lately and I am more than ready for a change! Every time I would get frustrated and was ready to throw in the towel, I would ask God "Why are you testing me??"  I still don't have a clear answer on the exact reason He is testing me but I have started to realize that I need to stay in this situation and make the best out o...

Hello and Welcome back to another Faithful Friday! I have decided for now that I am only going to post on Friday's and hopefully as time goes on I will add another day (or two) back into my blogging schedule. I was listening to K-Love the other day on my drive in to work and they asked this question: During hard/difficult times in your life, have you become better or bitter? I thought that was a really good question. So I took the time to reflect and honestly answer the question. We all have had our fair share of hardships and we all have our own way of dealing with things. I honestly can say that most of the time I will get bitter at first. Especially when I feel like someone has wronged me. Think about it... maybe a friend, family member, or someone you never thought would wrong you has. You're furious right?? Thinking "How could they do that to ME???" "Why is this happening to ME???" I get it, trust me. But, (you knew there'd be a but) when it is a...

Hello everyone, Thank you for joining me today. I am thrilled to be back to blogging! I have a new blogging schedule this time around and I will be posting every Wednesday and Friday. Wednesday's we will cover topics based around makeup and beauty products. Friday's will be dedicated to faith based posts. Although I will not be posting 3 times a week like I was in the past, at this current phase in my life, this is a blogging schedule I can maintain for now. Thank you all so much for your continued love, support, and patience while I was away. I want you all to know that I appreciate each and every one of you and your support means the world to me!
