Overeating



Have you ever eaten so much food that you felt like you were going to be sick? Have you ever felt like if you just threw-up a little that you would feel better?


Sounds pretty nasty doesn't it?


That food sure looks delicious and you just get hungry by smelling it. It looks soooo good!!! After eating a variety of different sweets (cause you HAVE TO try them all).....you tell yourself "just one more bite".

AND THEN YOU REALIZE.....I've bit off WAY MORE THAN 
I CAN CHEW!!!  


I'm a stay-at-home-wife-and-mom-pursing-God's-will-for-my-life-obeying-Him-every-step-of-the-way-working-on-the-vision-for-SCIH.


My children are grown and live their own lives. I do own a cat & dog who are as childish as children and I also own a husband. He takes some time but he's pretty laid-back and always so supportive! I LOVES HIM! And we own some property that needs cared for as well.


I AM HOME most every day. Now, to SOME this may sound FABULOUS..."Oh the things I could do if I were home." Ummmhmmmm..that's what I thought. It seems I've learned A LOT while working (OR TRYING TO) work at/from home.



Volunteering for different things is GREAT! I encourage you to do that. BUT if you are not following the Holy Spirit, then those tasks that 
you were thinking would be all fun and wonderful, turn into stressful, burn-out, tiring, adventures.


When you put an over abundance of food on your plate, it's called HUN-GARY. When you partake of everything EVEN IF YOUR FULL, 
it's called STU-PIDITY! lol 


I've felt sick to my stomach because I've eaten (or taken on) too much  (WITHOUT the leading of the HOLY SPIRIT!)


When you are doing something God tells you to do, then you will have grace to do that task. I promise you, if you don't have grace for something, then you may want to pray about it because it won't always be wonderful! I'm not saying that you "shouldn't" help people out or sometimes, you just need to do what your heart is telling you to do at that moment. But if you put yourself in a situation that is long term, the results of that may not be and end well.


Once you start doing what the will of God is for YOUR life, and start giving up the small tasks that may take up your time, then GOD WILL BLESS YOU!



In the last couple of months, I've taken on more than I can chew. I work and I work and I work and I even work at working trying to get everything done but guess what? It still needs work. It's not like a task that needs to be finished and then you won't see it anymore. I seem to get involved with  continuing projects that take on more time then I have time to give to it. 
If you are not sure about projects that you are wanting to begin ask the Holy Spirit. He is your guide. He will lead you into all truth! 

And if He doesn't give the A-OK, then DON'T say Hey Okay!!!! If you do, you will end up being tired, frustrated, & stressed. (Let's just be truthful now). 


I'm not saying that I didn't speak the Word over my situation, BUT I CREATED MY SITUATION and had to PURGE (to cause evacuation from) and get hungry again for the vision for SCIH. It's not that I lost vision or direction. I just put it last before everything else. BUT I'm learning that I CAN SAY NO! AND SO CAN YOU! 


Even if you have gotten yourself in a messy situation, GOD CAN PUT YOU ABOVE THAT SITUATION!! 


My friend once went to Jamaica and a tour guide told her "Don't worry, not problem, just situation!" I will never forget that...because situations can be changed in a blink of an eye.


I urge you to find the will of God for YOUR LIFE and DO IT!  You don't have to partake of everyone's food - just to try!! You will end up too full and feeling bloated! 


EAT FROM the MASTER'S TABLE and be FILLED with the GOODNESS OF GOD!


THIS YEAR IS AN AWESOME YEAR for SCIH! I expect GOOD THINGS and it's TIME TO SEE those good things come to pass.


I WILL ONLY EAT THE GOOD OF THE LAND and MAKE WISE CHOICES!!!  Choices that are spirit-led and I'm going to be spirit-fed so that I am able to fulfill the call of God on my life and because of that, GOD WILL BE SMILING!!!

Standing STRONG

  Observing social media posts (and my own incident recently) - THUS THE REASON for this post! 😁 I've found majority of people who post are pitiful, selfish, weak little cry babies when it comes to different situations!   It's times we let our hair down and tell it like it is!!! It helps people when we are REAL about our self and different situations! We ALL have issues, even if you think that you do.I ASSURE YOU, you do!   AND THE bad part about it is SATAN KNOWS! He may see it better than YOU SEE IT! BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS, once we see and realize it, then we can make adjustments and move on!   I hate talking about myself....ESPECIALLY about issues that I encounter.......my here goes...so bare with me. It's not about the success of dieting, because we can ALL be successful at something....BUT the knowledge of the root of the issue!   So, all my teenage years through adult life I've never really liked how I've looked! I've always felt fatter t

Mom Memories

It's amazing just how much you REALLY need your mom!  Your mom is always the one that you go to for every day questions, maybe cooking questions, maybe just needing knowledge about an issue. Whatever the case, it's awesome just to call your mom and say hello!  After mom (Bonnie Moore a/k/a Dear Grace) moved to Heaven last October, there's many emotions I've had to deal with. You think you're okay and then out-of-the-blue, something jars your memory and there goes the tears. You often catch yourself wanting to give her a call. My mom was a strong woman. I don't ever recall her being ill many times in her life. When she was sick, she would jump right back in the path of life and get busy. She was always helping other people, whether it was cooking meals, feeding their cats, taking them to the Dr, whatever it was, she was joyful in all she did. Mom would find humor in the small things. She was really a hoot! She loved to go to Branson and en

Football Games and the United States of America

I was at a football game recently and it was so exciting seeing all the fans dressed up in their favorite gear to cheer on their team.  Outside the stadium were tailgaters grilling up their best barbeque and playing games to pass the time away. After all, it was 5 hours till the gates opened. Funny how fast time flies when you keep yourself busy doing things that you love. Once the doors were open, fans would walk a ways to even make it to the stadium. But that's okay because everyone was excited and ready for the big game. It was enjoyable seeing some fans with some wild get-ups. They certainly go all out for the game! Fans were packing in the huge stadium, everyone was wearing the same colors, however, only a few that decided to try to pack in the same stadium, took their chances and put on their team colors and were there to support their "the other" team. It's very interesting listening to the people around you. They yell at the referee's most
