Happiness, Contentment, and Love all require self nurishment

About Me

I managed to update my profile, but it ate my about me :). I am a mother, retired nurse and Rev. w/ D.D. I have times when I need to sound off about the lack of respect given to people around the US esp the VETS and the massive amount of young men returning from yet another war.
I go by the nickname "Big Mama" because my shoulders, heart, and ears are big enough to listen, show compassion, and forgive with unconditional love. I do not hate, hold grudges, or gossip. I try as I might to follow the word of God, but at times I may stumble. The Lord is always there to help me up, brush me off, and set me again on the right path. Even in our worldly wisdom we know nothing and will never have the answers to all things.
Reminders for all.. Romans 3:23-24 . . . All have sinned; all fall short of Gods glorious standard. Yet now God in his gracious kindness declares us not guilty. He has done this through Christ Jesus, who has freed us by taking away our sins.
Because of our sinful nature, there are times when we all fall away from God. Yet once weve identified and confessed our sin, God is faithful to forgive us. There is no sin so great we cannot come back to God.
