Perspective

This time of uncertainty that we are in has some of us deep in the dumps. I am one of them. I had to analyze the areas of my life in which I was not happy and apply what the word says! I encourage you in this season to write down the different areas in your life in which you think differently from the Lord. I am sharing my own personal areas as well as some of the things the Lord says about  them. I pray this will encourage you to uncover your own truths.  Marriage   Terrible Perspective ——-> When will it happen? Do I really want to wait? Perhaps if it doesn’t I will find other means to get what I’ve always wanted  God’s Perspective ———->   ‭‭Romans‬ ‭6:12‬ ‭NLT‬‬ .....

There are a couple of things that I have found work well for me and keep me sane during this new normal. Here is a break down of my week+helpful tips to get you through yours. Note..Now that we are in quarantine, try not to let this change much. If you are still working from home, get up, get dressed and treat your day like normal. Sub the gym for an at home workout, and you are good to go!  Monday-----> Grocery shopping day!  I am usually super drained from the weekend's church activities and so the only thing I have energy for is getting food for the week.

Well I plan to share all things that make me Beverly. My faith, food, culture, interests and what I am doing currently in this thing called life. Son Grandes is the soul of what I aim for everyday. Some days I succeed and some days I fail. Oh right. The backstory. Well, Son Grandes was born out of a need for shoes during my first year in Nicaragua.
