Day 10 of Keeping it Real


🎥 Day 10 of Keeping It Real

Today has been a really good day, and I’m thankful. 💙

My blood sugars have been great today—steady readings, no major highs or lows—and when you live with Type 1 Diabetes, those kinds of days are blessings you don’t take for granted.

I’m learning more and more to thank God for the simple victories.

Sometimes we look for the big breakthroughs and miss the everyday blessings right in front of us.

I also wanted to share something exciting—I have recently started selling Mary Kay and Kleo Kolor Nails, and I’m really enjoying both of these new journeys. 💄💅

I prayed before stepping into both opportunities, and I truly believe the Lord opened these doors.

One thing I love is that both companies offer products I genuinely enjoy and believe in. From beauty and skincare to nails and self-care, the products have been wonderful.

And honestly, taking care of ourselves matters.

Looking your best isn’t about vanity—it can be about confidence, stewardship, and feeling good in the body God gave you.

I believe God cares about every area of our lives—even the things that lift our spirits and help us feel encouraged.

I’ve also found that little acts of self-care can be healing when you’ve walked through grief, health struggles, and hard seasons.

So today I’m thankful for: 🙏 Good blood sugars
🙏 New opportunities
🙏 God’s faithfulness
🙏 And the reminder that He is still opening doors

If you’re walking through a hard season, keep trusting Him.

He is still guiding.
He is still providing.
He is still working.

“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” — Proverbs 16:3

Have a blessed and beautiful day 💕

What Does It Mean to Be Christ-Like? Being Christ-like is more than a title we claim—it is a life we live. In the Bible, being Christ-like means reflecting Jesus’ character, attitudes, and actions . It means embodying radical love, humility, compassion, forgiveness, and self-sacrifice—even toward those who hurt us or oppose us. It is a daily transformation of the heart, led by the Holy Spirit, as we become more like Him. Being Christ-like is not about following rules or appearing religious. It is about carrying the heart of Jesus —a servant’s heart. It’s about letting the world see Christ in us through how we love, forgive, serve, and walk in obedience to God. Jesus taught us to love not only our neighbors, but also our enemies: “But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” — Matthew 5:44 Christ-likeness means humility—laying aside pride and choosing obedience: “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus…” — Philippians 2:5...

Key Facts About Type 1 Diabetes Type 1 Diabetes is an invisible, lifelong autoimmune disease that affects millions of people, yet many still don’t understand what it truly is. Here are some important facts everyone should know: • Autoimmune disease: Type 1 Diabetes occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. • Insulin is essential for survival: People with Type 1 must take insulin every day through injections or an insulin pump.

 🎥 Keeping It Real Making It Through Mother’s Day After Loss 💙 Mother’s Day can be beautiful… but it can also be incredibly hard when you’ve lost a child. This Mother’s Day has brought a lot of emotions for me. I miss my daughter deeply, and there are moments when the grief still feels very heavy. There’s an emptiness that comes with losing a child that never fully goes away. But by the grace of God, I’m making it through one moment at a time. 🙏 And while my heart misses my daughter here on earth, I’m also thankful for the blessings God has still given me. I still have my handsome son, and I have three beautiful grandchildren that I love with all my heart. 💕 They bring joy, smiles, and reminders that even after loss, life still holds precious moments. Grief and gratitude can exist together. You can miss someone deeply while still being thankful for the people who are still here. That’s something God has been teaching me.
