💙 Keeping It Real – Another Great Blood Sugar Day


💙 Keeping It Real – Another Great Blood Sugar Day! 💙


I am so excited to say that today has been another great day of blood sugar readings! Praise God! 🙏


As many of you know, I have been working hard to make healthier choices and create a lifestyle change that I can live with long-term. This is not about a diet for me—it is about building a healthier way of life one day at a time.


Now, I want to be clear that I am not a doctor. What I am doing is working for me and my body. I can share my experiences and what I have learned from living with Type 1 Diabetes for many years, but everyone is different.


If you have Type 1 Diabetes or any other health condition, it is important to work closely with your endocrinologist and healthcare team. They know your medical history, and together you can figure out what works best for you.


One thing I have learned is that nobody knows your body quite like you do. You know when something feels off, when something is helping, and when something needs to change. That is why we have to be willing to learn, ask questions, and advocate for our own health.


For me, I do not just seek medical advice—I also seek God's guidance. I spend time in prayer, reading His Word, and asking Him for wisdom concerning my health, my choices, and my future.


The Bible tells us in James 1:5 that if anyone lacks wisdom, they should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault. What a comfort it is to know that we can take our concerns, including our health, directly to Him.


God cares about every part of our lives. He cares about our hearts, our minds, our families, and yes, even our health struggles.


So today I am thankful.


Thankful for good blood sugars.

Thankful for another day.

Thankful for the strength to keep moving forward.

Thankful for the wisdom God provides.

And thankful for His faithfulness through both the good days and the challenging ones.


If you are struggling with your health right now, don't give up. Keep learning, keep trying, keep praying, and keep trusting God. Progress may come one small step at a time, but those small steps add up.


💙 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." — Proverbs 3:5-6


Have a blessed and wonderful day, and keep the faith. God is still working, even when we cannot see the whole picture. 🙏💕

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. Insulin cannot be taken as a pill because stomach acid destroys it. • Symptoms can appear suddenly: Increased thirst and urination, extreme hunger, sudden weight loss, fatigue, and blurred vision are common warning signs. • Can occur at any age: While often diagnosed in children, teens, and young adults, Type 1 can develop at ANY stage of life. • Not preventable: There is currently no known way to prevent Type 1 Diabetes. • Requires lifelong management: Proper care helps people with Type...

 🎥 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. Mother’s Day may look different now, but I trust that God...
