April Story

April StoryIt didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. I was slow, unproductive, tired, and overwhelmed in everything and seemed to be disconnected with God. God was silent! I found myself in a faith crisis, shaking if I have enough strength to physically and...

Slow n sure

Salamat—thank youWe are grateful to God for each one of you for investing in our family and ministry all through this time. Your trust and generosity brought our work this far. We want to say  thank you! These words are not enough for how blessed we are to each one of...

Invitation

InvitationI had compromised this week the invitations of His heart. I felt the busyness, the deadlines and the disruptions. I lost the attachment- the divine care, the longing for HIs nearness was strong. Here I am today, sitting down, knowing that I have house chores...

Wrap Up

Wrap Up "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It...

Reset

RESET- The overnight staff retreat in Moalboal last month brought the needed reset. Communing with nature—just being calm and quiet releases all toxins  accumulated with work, city life and recent spiritual warfare. Grounding ourselves back reconnects us to our...

Celebrate

48!It feels good—so good to be 48!   Last month's spiral of emotions was replaced by a month of celebration. I decided to listen to my body and my emotions and be more aware of their needs. I chose joy and celebrated the small victories, defeats, frustrations, and...

Vulnerable

Vulnerable September came with a spiral of emotions—health, car problems, ministry transitions, and unprocessed grief. Circumstances beyond my control overwhelmed my heart and mind. I became vulnerable, which meant being honest, real, and transparent. I stopped...

God’s Unlimited Capacity

God's Unlimited CapacityPsalm 23:1 "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." I have been stuck lately in this cycle of lack. The self-sufficient self always comes from finding ways to fill it on my own. Sometimes taking control of everything. As I am finding time...

About Us

 

My adventure as a single parent started seven(7) years ago. It was not a choice, but it happened just like that. Losing my husband and father of my children was the most painful journey that I took. I am doing this page to inspire, encourage, and pray for those single parents out there who are thriving to become better parents. I hear you.

For me, being a parent is a journey of the heart that requires a lot of intentionality and teachable moments. This page will tell you all the ups and downs of becoming a purposeful parent for this generation. I want to be honest and real about the struggles I face every day. As a small family, we want our homes to be a place of security, growth, and belongingness.

 

  “The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out.” -Proverbs 20:5-
