II Timothy- Emotional

Heyyyy Divas!!!


Yesterday I was in Church, and the Passage was given from Second Timothy Chapter 4 Starting at Verse 7.
The Pastor read, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. When this was read, I cried in my husband's arms. It was the last thing that my Uncle JB said to me before he slipped into his coma, and eventually died.

"Niece he said, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith, I was built for this."  After I cried, I smiled, because it doesn't matter what we are going through, with life's ups and downs. We are built for it! I always thought, why do I always have to struggle, why isn't things just handed to me like other folks, but I think that I have to fight hard, its part of my testimony. Actually in theory, nothing is expected to come easy to a child of God! I think I have learned that.

Brighter days are coming, we just have to remain faithful. Things are never as bad as it seems. My uncle fought a tough battle, and he is probably the strongest man I would ever know, but he told us, Don't worry about me, I was built for this. I am a soldier in the Army for God. (He actually was in the Army, so he used soldier quite a bit.)

Don't worry he says, anyone that knows me, is what I do.. I am a worrier.. I am a prayer, but I worry so much, and thinking back, I always have. And even through the mist of the tears, the worries, the prayers, God ALWAYS makes a way for me!

I wanted to share why, on this Monday morning, I am not grumpy, but smiling with a tear, its funny how moments in our lives becomes linked to a person, a place or a thing. Sometimes I believe its down right magical!

Welp Divas, until next time TWO SNAPS~~


My Uncle!! May He Rest In Peace!

Will you be my Valentine??

Hey Divas!!!!

This week love is in the air. How lovely!!

I wanted this Valentine's Day to be special since its my First One Married to a Man that holds my heart. Of course I had to stress this point to my Hubby. I'm anxious to see what surprise will be waiting for me. I am the hopeless romantic type.

But... I was watching TV yesterday, and someone can't remember who, said "Yeah, you can tell you are in LOVE, you gain a Whole LOT of Weight." So... I said to myself, Hmmm, that could have a good point.
My Husband and I relationship went into ninth gear when he moved in about 4 years ago. And after our wedding, I gained MAD WEIGHT, not to mention the stress level, and now I am at the highest I have been in about 4 years. : (

Lately, I started something new. I started the new Revolutionary Shred Diet from Dr. Ian Smith. And so far..... I have lost 6.5 Lbs in the first week. I am eating a lot more than I ever have. We eat about every 2-3 hours and have a low calorie intake. I didn't think, I would like it but I actually am, loving it. So.. I decided to grab me another sex lingerie, of course Red, for this Thursday just to top off our very special holiday.

Do you Divas have any plans for Valentine's Day???

Until next time... ~~ Two Snaps
