Is it possible to live in a resort of your own with all the strange amenities of time to think? In this place, deep meditation lavishes a moving revelation that transports my soul to eternity past.

Is it really true that I have so much freedom in this resort? I am living the best of both worlds, retired and single. This season lacks restraint to have an amazing time alone with my Maker.

My time resource is really astounding ! My house is a resort filled with the wonderful presence of God! The airy, clear and spacious place is an extravagant invitation to meditate on the goodness of the Lord.

I feel so fulfilled, so complete! There is a deep satisfaction in having finished my role as a daughter, as a wife and as a mother. Today, I am living my own and last role in this world.

We come into this world single and return single to the eternal world. No other relationship is forever. If death doesn’t end relationships, time definitely will. Some may think that children belong to the parents, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Four days before my firstborn died, the Lord told me, the children are His and He entrusts them to the parents so that they raise them in His image, and when He wants them, He takes them.

So now my children are adults and with their own families . My joy and full satisfaction is to see them leading a Godly life, responsible and independent citizens.

Without canvas or brush, I will try to paint my house borrowing the Words of our Lord in Matthew 7:25

In my 76 years on this earth, the rain of the death of my parents and my firstborn descended, the floods of the dissolution of my 41-year marriage came, the wind of the desolation of friends blew and whipped my house.

However, my house was hit hard, but never destroyed. My life is represented in this house. So now my house is stronger than ever, because it is founded on the rock.

This is the reason why I am living an extravagant season! You too can build your house on the rock and have a life full of contentment, despite the present anguish.

Please pray with me: Lord, forgive my sins and write my name in your book and save me as I receive Christ as my Savior. Thanks you Father. Amen.

This is my Story! What’s Yours?

The purpose of having children is not for them to love me, to take care of me, to meet my unmet needs, for me to live my frustrated life through them, forcing them to be what I was not able to be or do.

The original purpose is to fill the earth with the image of God. Specially as a mother, the greatest privilege is to teach the Word of God to our children, not only by words but by living it.

My mother taught me by words and by example. She gave me a palate for the Word of God!

The Word has formed me and shaped my inner being with strength to withstand all the storms of life threatening my very own existence.

That blessed Word, I was able to transmit to my children. And today I enjoy a family that lives only for God!

Because I was blessed with a mother that raised me with the Word of God as our daily bread, I am what I am today! My sister calls me “ the lady of iron”, but I very well know, that my visible strength is the Warrior hidden inside of me, His name is Jesus!

I thank God for my mother who gave herself to love and serve God and passed on that blessed legacy to us, her children.

Honoring my lovely mother, a five feet tall and one hundred feet tall in good works!

This is my Story! What’s Yours?

Pieces of threads that come off my heart from my daughter’s childhood. Going through a priceless old trunk, I came across this wonderful piece of art by my daughter.

My fourth grade daughter painted this clown, when she was 9 years old. Every child is different, even if born to the same mother and raised in the same home. My two sons were very sociable and outspoken, they were both very outgoing, just like dad!

But the princess of my heart was an introvert like her mom. And she was so attached to Mom, that to spend school hours apart from her, she needed Mom’s purple sweater.

That sweater was a sign of safety because she could smell mom’s fragrance. Other children did not know that for my daughter that sweater is invaluable. It represented that mom was constantly with her. My girl was comforted because as long as she had that sweater, mommy was with her!

Isn’t it wonderful that the Lord ascended to heaven, but He did not leave us orphans? He sent us the Holy Spirit to be with us and in us. And we can catch the fragrance of Jesus while we are in the school of life.

Others may not know why we cling so fiercely to the Word of God. It is that the Word teaches us that, the Holy Spirit is our guarantee that we belong to Jesus. And we are never alone, the fragrance of Him covers us all the time.

“I will not leave you fatherless. I will come to you.” (John 14:18 MEV).

You can ask Him to come to live inside of you and He will. Say: Lord Jesus, receive me as your child and fill me with your fragrance. Amen.
