30 years today with Mr. Jones ❤️

Two simple, down-to-earth high school homies who chose better or worse—and baby, we got both early. At our reception he had an appendix rupture, went straight into surgery, and there we were… newlyweds, on disability, me 7 months pregnant with our second daughter. Bills didn’t stop—but God covered us.

Fast forward… now we share glasses 🤓, fall asleep early 😂, still love good vibes, good music, and holding on to good times. We’ve lost parents, carried 4 heaven babies, and now sit grateful with a family of 10.

Here’s what 30 years taught me:

• Don’t dismiss your role—God can use your love story to minister to others.
• You don’t have to prove your love for God by looking like everyone else.
• Get wise, real counsel—not just theories, but people living this thing out.
• Conflict will come—heal it or you’ll keep meeting it again.
• Whether you started on food stamps or six figures—vision + mindset matter more.
• Play your roles based on strengths, not ego. Stay open to growth and correction—that’s where respect lives.

Ladies & fellas—we both grow at different levels. Honor that. Build together. Laugh often. Love hard. And don’t forget to LIVE.

We’re still here, still choosing each other… and still having fun doing it 💃🏾

“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.” — 1 Peter 4:8

Happy 30th Anniversary to us 🥂

I just came to drop a little praise report… but y’all know I don’t do “little” 😅

So boom… my retired boss randomly texts me like, “come to this church event.”
No flyer. No details. Just vibes.

I go… minding my business… trying to grow in my Word…
Whole time the message lines ALL the way up with what God already been speaking to me in Book of Isaiah.

I’m sitting there like…
“Okay God… I see You 👀”

Then they do the altar call… for growth, healing, marriages…
Mind you… this is my 30-year anniversary weekend.

So now I’m like…
“Alright… this getting a lil personal Lord…” 😩😂

I go up… not for hype… just for real prayer.

This man (super humble, no extra energy)… makes his way through a WHOLE crowd…
comes right to me… touches my head…

BABYYYY when I tell you I felt the Holy Spirit STRONG…
not emotional… not dramatic… just… REAL.

And starts speaking over my life about my FAMILY…
things I’ve been praying in PRIVATE.

No way he knew.
No way.

Meanwhile… my friend secretly recording the whole thing like a ninja 🥷🏽😂
God said “you gone have receipts for this one.”

BUT WAIT… here go the part that took me OUT 😭

While we all up there praising…
a little baby girl (like 5 or 6) in her mama arms reaches her hand out to me…

Like “hold my hand.”

And I did 🥹

Y’all… something about that moment hit DEEP.
Because it reminded me of the promise I made to God about my grandson.

Like… “okay Lord, I hear You… I’m covering the babies different now.”

Then the praise leader gets up talking about his OWN 5-year-old giving their life to Christ…

I’m like…
“Alright God… you just stacking confirmations at this point 😭”

AND get this… the speaker almost didn’t even come because his wife is about to have a baby ANY DAY now…

So the fact he even showed up??
Divine.

The fact he made it through that crowd to me??
Divine.

The fact the word matched EXACTLY what God already told me??
DIVINE.

Now here’s the funny part 😂
I didn’t even know who he was at the time… just knew he was ANOINTED.

Come to find out later…
it was Derek Carr 😭

And listen… I don’t know nothing about football like that…
just know in my house I’m required to like the Raiders because my husband not having it no other way 🏴‍☠️😂

But see… that’s how God will do it…
He’ll send who He wants, however He wants… and you won’t even be caught up in titles… just the POWER.

I left FULL.

Woke up this morning…
new therapy client inquiry in my email.

God said:
“I’m not just touching your spirit… I’m touching your LIFE.”

Listen…

I don’t care how random it looks…
when God is moving… He will line things up so specifically it’ll scare you a little 😅

All I know is this:

I’m covering my family DIFFERENT.
I’m showing up DIFFERENT.
And I’m trusting God at a WHOLE new level.

That’s it. That’s the post.

Okay bye before I start crying again 😭🙌🏾

Birthday Countdown: Stepping into 54

Isaiah 54 is about restoration after pain. It speaks to anyone who has felt broken, carried shame, or walked through loss and hardship. The message is clear: your next season will be bigger, stronger, and more stable than your past.

God is calling me to expand, even if I don’t feel ready. To make room for what’s coming, even if my current situation doesn’t reflect it yet.

The shame from my past is being removed. What once defined me no longer has authority over my future.

God’s love is steady. Even in seasons where it felt like He was distant, I was never abandoned.

I am being established in peace. This is not a survival season. This is a season of stability, clarity, and covering.

What rises against me will not win. Opposition may come, but it will not have the final say in my life.

This chapter reminds me that I am not just healing, I am being prepared for expansion. My future will not look like my past.

Life application:

Where is God asking you to expand, even though you still feel like you are recovering?
