"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate to do I do. "                                                                                                                                                               -Romans  7:15 Have you ever had a goal that seems to end unsuccessful, or a desire to better yourself, only to find that you willingly commit acts that result in your own failure? There are definitely a few things on my agenda that keep getting moved forward thanks to my "never give up" attitude. One goal of mine in particular is my deep desire to read the word of God. Not only read it but to apply it and share it with my children and all those that I love. Why wouldn't I not want to share something so wonderful with the people I love.   We can also relate to this aspect in terms of New Years resolutions and some examples might include a decision to start going to church, spending more time with our childre

Bible Informational...

The following thoughts are shared from  Sunday service at Temple Baptist Church,  presented by Pastor Fred Gurule... First of all, how can we be blessed by the bible? Let me ask you a question,.... Do you or someone you know own a bible? Do you ever open it and read the word? Do you get the "information for transformation?" "The purpose of the information is transformation." -Pastor Gurule "I want the bible to be more than head knowledge, I want it to change me." -Pastor Gurule Bibles are everywhere in America last year there were 500 million bibles published in the world and thats in 18,000 different languages, meaning the bible is available for us to read it,.... If or when you search scripture, is it daily, weekly, monthly or yearly? Do you discern and gaze or do you glance?  After Jesus resurrected two disciples ran to the tomb, John looked in and he didn't go in, Peter got there and he not only looked in, but he

Confusion sets in....

You may see me as a happy individual with a good life, but I like you have my ups and downs. I am definitely not perfect, it's the way I was made, I'm only human. Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry but  I always endure and carry on through the never. I don't like to use my foundation as an excuse to be a failure and I take responsibility for my actions. If I have a problem I let you know, not to stir up trouble, but instead to solve a hindrance. Sometimes I have to take a step back for a breather because let's face it, sometimes everything is just too much to bear. I grew up as a "have not" and to this day I still carry a bit of resentment, though I try to hide it and not let others see the  envy that builds within me. Sometimes I'm screaming inside, tearing to get out, sometimes I am my own worse enemy and I keep myself captive. When I think too much is when I find myself at my darkest. Why must darkness consume me? Why can I not be that which I wish

Nightmare is a Reality

Warning!!! Graphic Details: December 28, 2011 was the worse day of my life... my sister, Lynette Renee Yazzie-Becenti , was horrifically taken from all of us! In the New Mexico Pueblo of Jemez a man by the name of Gavin Yepa , 26 at the time, chose to take a precious life. Alcohol was involved, but alcohol cannot be the blame. She was raped with a shovel 16 inches to her diaphragm and she died of internal bleeding. This unbelievable nightmare happened at Yepa's residence in Jemez Pueblo and he is claiming that another individual by the name Rodney Adams is the guilty one. Pointing his finger at another will not make it go away. Adams was present at Yepa's residence at that time of Yepa's horrific acts and had witnessed Yepa insert a water bottle, pull it out bloody and lick the bottle before taking a drink. Rodney Adams left the house as a thief and with his hands he took her cell phone and other contents of her bag. At this time his testimony is being argued in re

What Is This Thing Called Love?

In short GOD is LOVE... The word love is used 551 times in the NIV bible according to christian bible reference: <http://www.christianbiblereference.org/faq_WordCount.htm> Love is Unselfish        And now I will show you the most excellent way. 13  If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient, love is kind, It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrong. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where ther

Time Goes Bye!! Where Will You Go When It's Time to Say Bye?

One thing that is always changing - time... It seems like a twinkling of an eye.. One moment your here and the next your only a memory... A story that unfolds,... a unique puzzle in time... A beautiful portrait in a moments glory... One thing that never changes, God's Undying love and Gift of Salvation... The Amazing part is it's totally, absolutely 100% FREE!!! All you need to do is: Admit that you have sinned and ask for GOD's forgiveness... and turn away from sin! Believe that Jesus is God's son and that God sent Jesus to die on the cross for ALL the world's sins... Confess and ask him into your heart... Pastor always asks, "If you die today, are your certain that you are going to heaven?" He reminds us that being a good person or good deeds is not what gets you into heaven, the ONLY way is through Jesus Christ and that's the truth!

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart." -Helen Keller

It is Friday once again and I feel as though time is nothing more than floating dust over time... Luckily I've been blessed with a wonderful husband of whom I have the honor to share my time. Everyday is a blessing with him in our lives, the children and mine. We have already celebrated our second year and counting in marriage and to be honest I never thought I would be a married woman. I mean I never thought I would find him... The children are growing with each year and I only hope that I am being a good mom to them. As of now Josiah is getting sick, most likely what Uriah is getting over. Uriah contracted his sickness from Lisa's son Xandro, and that lil guy goes to daycare so who knows where he got it from. It's a cycle! Alysha and Andreas are working on the end of school year material and I am trying to help them as much as possible. We finally received our Explora pass from NAPPR which is awesome, the whole year we shall have membership. In this current moment my

So many thoughts, errands, tasks, bills, lessons, time management, cleaning, cooking, reading, organization, productivity, hobbies, playtimes, games, laundry, snacks, music, order.... Where does one begin and the other end? How can I manage it all graciously? Sometimes kids are sick, sometimes I am sick,... it never ends... I've learned to take one day at time,... focus on important tasks and love my family neverendingly. I've made a goal and that is to learn something new every day. .. today I am going to learn about or I should say I learned how to make potato soup.... I also would like to share a picture everyday as well! I want to be a encouraging and loving mother to my babies and my husband! I guess today I shall read about what a good woman is in the bible... 10  Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is worth more than precious rubies.  11  Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life.  12  She will not hinder him but help him all h
