Memorial of Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini, Virgin
Lk 17:1-6
Jesus said to his disciples,
"Things that cause sin will inevitably occur,
but woe to the one through whom they occur.
It would be better for him if a millstone were put around his neck
and he be thrown into the sea
than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.
Be on your guard!
If your brother sins, rebuke him;
and if he repents, forgive him.
And if he wrongs you seven times in one day
and returns to you seven times saying, 'I am sorry,'
you should forgive him."
And the Apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith."
The Lord replied, "If you have faith the size of a mustard seed,
you would say to this mulberry tree,
'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you."

It bothers me when people continuously tell me, “you’ll get through it.” Like bitch I know that!! I know I’m strong. I know I’ll figure it out somehow. I know I’ll make a way by way of God.
But sometimes I’m tired of having to “figure it out” and “get through it.” HELP ME MFER! Obviously I’m coming to you for advice or help! Not telling you this for my health!
It’s mentally draining always having to “get through” some shit.
🙏🏾Good days on my mind 🙏🏾

Maybe I've not given my husband enough credit for the life I've lived with him. It only got wretched in the end. The love never really left...we just allowed it to get hidden and deeply buried within.
He's been more of a muse for me than I realized.
Especially in the beginning, in our mid-twenties when we first met...his true love was pure and genuine. It was a blessing.
He is a Scorpio indeed and part of me despises his very nature, but also, part of me finds him incredibly endearing and hard to forget.
Since I've been with him for the last, twenty-two years, we've experienced a lot of ups and downs together. Like a roller coaster ride through life. It's been exciting and adventurous and intense. Yes!
We've traveled from one end of the country together to the other. We've road-tripped from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.
We've created children together and raised a family together and made wonderful, long-lasting memories together.
Despite our arrangement to have an "open marriage" in recent years, it was always him I gravitated back to. Everything else failed or didn't work out for some reason or another. But he did. My husband did.
We wear matching clothes without even realizing we're doing it until after the fact. if that's not #soul #twinning, I don't know what is?
Maybe he's not my twin flame, maybe he's my soul mate!
Maybe he's always been but I hadn't embraced it yet. Maybe really I already had true love right before my eyes. I didn't need to go looking online or wonder about the virtual halls of despair to find love.
Maybe love had already found me but I was too busy looking elsewhere. I do declare, marriage isn't about seeing how fast you can get divorced. Marriage is about toughing it out through the bad times and celebrating the good. Just like the vows we take before God.
We've made our way through a lot of darkness together and still danced in the light afterward. I've painted and written and creatively progressed so much since knowing him.
Maybe I didn't let him know how much I truly appreciated him and how much I was motivated to better myself because of the love he showed me when I was young. When I needed love the most.
He was there. He wasn't just words or a ghost or a shadow, he was real, every day, present, and accounted for.
We've grown older together, and he is my best friend.
Despite the "rocky phase" we've recently gone through in our personal lives and our marriage, we can still look at each other at the end of the day, face-to-face, and choose to be okay.
Because true love does that stuff. Marriage does that stuff. Best friends do that stuff. Real life does that stuff. Courage does that stuff.
The rest is best left unsaid and undone.

“And the Lord said, “If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.” —Luke 17:6 (ESV)
“You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.” —Matthew 17:20 (NLT)
“Who is like you, Lord God Almighty? You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.” —Psalm 89:8 (NIV)
“Look, God is mighty and doesn’t reject anyone; he is mighty in strength and mind.” —Job 36:5 (CEB)
“Who is the King of glory? The Lord, strong and mighty; the Lord, invincible in battle.” —Psalm 24:8 (NLT)
“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.” —Zephaniah 3:17 (ESV)
“On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God. All the glory, praises and honor be to the Heavenly Father in Jesus’ precious and mighty name!” —Psalm 62:7 (ESV)
God can take faith the size of a mustard seed and do great miracles with it. Mountain-moving faith does not need to be big, because God is big!
Friend, no matter the size you think your faith is, it is more than enough for God to work with - because God is mighty, all-powerful and so great. “You do not need a GREAT faith, but faith in a GREAT God” (J. Hudson Taylor). If you have faith in God, He will do what you can't do in your own strength. Our God is MIGHTY! Amen! 🙌

Good Morning!☀️
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Matthew 17:20
Repeatedly, Jesus let people who came to him know that they would receive according to their faith. He often chided his disciples for their little faith. His words about the mustard seed are often misquoted, referring to the size of the mustard seed only, when in fact Jesus is talking about its growth from a small sees into a big tree. If faith the size of a mustard seed was sufficient, Jesus never would have chided his disciples about their little faith.
Developing, deepening, growing faith can accomplish anything. Faith that is maturing and growing larger by the day can move mountains, both literal and figurative. Nothing is impossible when your faith is strong and vibrant, without even a hint of doubt.
Unbelief is a dream stealer and a dream killer if allowed to grow. Even Jesus could not do much in his hometown because of the unbelief of the people. Do not let doubt drown your dreams. Dare to have maturing, growing faith.
According to your faith, be it unto you!

How to Grow Mustard Seed Faith
Make plans to grow your faith in the new year and watch the miracles begin to happen!
For faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 This post may contain affiliate links where I am paid a small commission from purchases through the link. We exhibit faith many times in our everyday life.  When we sit in a chair, we have faith that the chair will hold us up. When we step on an airplane, we trust this fuel-powered tube and an…

Oftentimes, it just, takes, a little faith, it’s, a walk, not a run, because, if you, run, you will, miss, the way, every time.
I have seen, many, great runners, run off, the cliff, because, they, weren’t, paying, attention.
Find the pace, and you, will, succeed, every, time.

Taking the Faith Plunge
I know that most of my blog followers are “faith” people. Those are the folks who have read about faith, practiced faith, built their faith up and have seen the merits of exercising faith. Everything God wants to do in our lives, He does so based on faith. And, btw, if you aren’t a “faith” person, I’d be thrilled to help you become one! Since a little girl, I heard Jesus’ words: “If you have…

I can’t help but fear
When I don’t hear your voice
Hypocrite, I know what I am
Every imperfection,
forever seeking your mercy.
Yet you were there,
When the water was calling my name,
Pulling me from the pew
To sinking into a swimming pool on a chilly Sunday morning
Hands clapping, smiling, cheering.
You were there, renewing my soul
Born again.
And on my loneliest nights
As I scream and cry for your comfort,
There you are.
I didn’t mean to fall to my knees, Truly
It just happened when your presence came upon me in the most
Unmistakable way
Erasing the doubts I hid from my own eyes.
Forgive me, it’s still growing
My faith, like the mustard seed you told me about
So long ago.

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” - 2 Corinthians 12:9
“Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind, for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.” - Psalm 107:8-9
This may lose me some followers, it may gain me some, either way I’m tired of being lukewarm in my faith and not proclaiming the goodness of my God. I will keep posting my usual nerdy stuff, but I also want to start bringing in some more works to shine His light.
