Keeping It Real – God Is Moving

 💙 Keeping It Real – God Is Moving! 💙


The last two days have been great when it comes to my blood sugars, and I am so thankful for that. Praise God! 🙏


Of course, life with Type 1 Diabetes always seems to keep us on our toes.


Last night it was time to change my Dexcom G7 sensor because my 10 days were up. I got everything ready, cleaned my arm, applied the new sensor, and waited for it to start.


Well... it failed. 😞


The sensor gave me a "failed sensor" message, which is never fun to see.


Thankfully, I was able to get online with Dexcom, and they are sending me a replacement. Until it arrives, I am back to doing finger sticks to check my blood sugar.


Now, after living with Type 1 Diabetes for many years, I can honestly say this is not the first time I've had to go back to finger sticks, and it probably won't be the last. It's just part of the journey sometimes.


Technology is wonderful when it works, but it is always good to remember the basics and know how to manage things when technology decides to take a break. 😊


The important thing is that my blood sugars are still doing well, and I am grateful for that.


And now for some exciting news...


I have found a weekend job! 🎉


Praise God!


I will start training on Saturday, and I am excited to see where this opportunity leads. As many of you know, I have been praying about finances, opportunities, and future goals for quite some time now.


Between my regular job, my Mary Kay business, my Kleo Kolor business, and now this weekend opportunity, I can truly see God opening doors and making a way.


Sometimes we pray and pray and wonder if God hears us.


Then all of a sudden things begin falling into place one step at a time.


Maybe not exactly when we want them to, but always right on time according to His plan.


I am learning that faith means trusting God even when you cannot see the whole picture.


It means continuing to move forward when things seem slow.


It means thanking Him for the answer before you even see it.


Today my heart is full of gratitude.


Grateful for good blood sugars.


Grateful for modern technology, even when it has a few hiccups.


Grateful for a new job opportunity.


Grateful for God's provision.


And grateful for all of you who continue to follow along on this journey.


No matter what challenge you are facing today, keep trusting God. He is still working behind the scenes, even when we cannot see it.


💙 "And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." — Philippians 4:19


Have a blessed and wonderful day, and keep the faith. God is moving in big ways! 🙏💕

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...
