Been a minute….

 I am dedicating this post to my mama. Not only do I want to tell you ‘bout my Jesus, I want to tell you ‘bout my mama. 

When I say that I wouldn’t have made it this last year without her. I am in no way exaggerating. In three years I lost my dad, lost my marriage, had my one and only precious daughter fly from the nest, switched grade levels and now I’m switching jobs. In my world, I had a lot on my plate. I have many friends that kept me going! S,A, N,M,L and L - you know who you are. But friends, there is nothing like your mama. I don’t for one second want to take her for granted. She keeps me grounded. She drives me nuts with her “you need to’s” ( don’t all mamas do that? She makes me laugh. She is a goof! I think she got that from my dad. No way she could have been married to him without his goofiness rubbing off. We all got it. Lol.

She talks sense in to me and tells me to be nice to people I really don’t want to be nice to.  

I want to be exactly like her when I grow up. Mom, I love you to the ends of the earth. Thank you for everything you’ve ever done for me. It’s a lot. I hope that I always make you proud of me. 

Love, Nellie

So small….

 Here is a song for you and me today: https://youtu.be/H74FBgOZTDw So here is another way God worked in my life and took care of me. The closing for my old house and the new house happened on the same day. So I was able to move from my old house to new one in one day. Now I know for certain this wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for my amazing realtor Robyn St. Clare! She is the best of the best and a Christian too. God knew I needed her! So I guess this is a raider today. God gave me the best realtor who I now consider a friend and bonus sister cause she adopted my mom. Hehe! And the closings went so smoothly. I’m tellin’ ya! Look at God!!!❤️ Hope you have a great day instead of just a good day! Love, Kelli

The Backside of the Desert

 Our pastor used that phrase to describe Paul’s last days. He felt like everyone had deserted him. All of his missionary friends *poof*. They all tapped out on him except for Luke. And they sat around in a jail cell and talked about all Paul had done. And Luke wrote it all down. Paul was in despair. He couldn’t see what God was doing at the time (writing actual scripture through Luke) but He knew what God’s track record was in his life. He was a rescuer and He never left his side. Not even for a minute.  Rewind to a year ago. I was in the backside of that desert. Pretty sure that God messed up because , “ how am I going through a divorce after almost 29 years of marriage? Where did *I* mess up? How was this even happening? And let me tell you. That desert was dry folks. Cause I was being stubborn. And mad. All at God. Well and maybe someone else. But being mad at God and that person just magnified the sin in my life. How I let God down so many times. How *I * failed in my marr...
