Hey Readers, Welcome back to Life, Faith &Love where I share YOUR stories. We just wrapped up our, "What I Wish I Knew Before I Got Married" series where I shared the stories of men and women who have been married anywhere from 6 months to 5 years. They shared a lot of wisdom from their personnel marriage stories. Make sure you go check it out if you missed.

Episode 2: "What I Wish I Knew Before I got Married"

+ Hey T-Gang, Welcome to week 2 of "What I Wish I Knew Before I Got Married".  Episode 2 is going to be in two parts, because I didn't want the content to be too long! I got the lovely opportunity to interview Mrs. Augusta Sternberg. I did a virtual interview with her due to Uncle Rona! But here's a little info on Augusta. She is a 27 year old wife, retired veteran, and a stay at home mom. She stated that her life went from one extreme to another extreme. Regardless of it all, she's happy to be alive. Point 1: Do NOT IDOLIZE Marriage Augusta shared how at a young age she kind of knew how her husband was going to look like. She had her word from God. The bad thing is that she idolized that word and started to idolize marriage. She believes God gave her that word to guide her and to help her not settle for what wasn't His will for her life, but she started idolizing marriage instead. That is point number 1 I can give y'all, do NOT idolize marriage. ...

Hello Readers!!! Welcome to week 9 of the series on  Life, Faith &Love  titled  Life Lessons Learned in my 20's .  Every Saturday, I will be posting a new blog of a story sent to me by one of YOU. I have loved reading all of your stories so far and I am so excited to share some of these lessons with you guys. This week life lesson stems from one of my good friends who wants to remain anonymous. She shares her 20's Life Lessons. 1. Parents have a lot of wisdom and when we're in our early twenties, we may not heed to it. My parents tried to speak some wisdom into me and caution me on certain things I should or should not do. Things such as where I should go to school and getting married. In the moment I didn't heed to their caution. I still did my own thing. We live in a world where it's all about me and I'm going to do me. But I want to tell you that you need people. You need wise people around you that will caution you when you're going down ...

Wednesday Wisdom: "The Power of Keeping Quiet: Part 2"

Welcome back readers!  Lets dive into this week topic, The Power of Keeping Quiet. If you missed part 1 of the Power of Keeping Quiet   click the underlined text. It's set up a good foundation on this topic. This week, I want to provide us with applicable tools on how to practice controlling the tongue. A big part of my blog is rooted in my faith, because I believe in our own human power we can only get so far, but with the power of the Holy Spirit, ALL things are possible. Sincerely, over the years I've had to lean into scripture to help me control my tongue. These two scriptures below are powerful in controlling the tongue.  1. James 1:19 : "Be Slow to Speak, Quick to Listen and Slow to Anger" In the heat of a disagreement/argument it's so easy for our mouths to run loose. We start saying words that pierce like a sword and the dangerous thing about words is once they leave our mouths, we can't take them back and the recipient of your words w...
