Life is hard sometimes. But I've come to learn and believe that God will never give us more than we can bear. Through this blog, I'm going to share the "golden nuggets" of my family.

What are "golden nuggets," you ask? Well, I once had a discipler that would make me share something good or encouraging that God has shown me in His word or done for me during the week. Think of it as a treasure hunter sifting for gold from the sand.

As a teen, my life seemed to be filled with many troubles, but when I took the time to search for those golden nuggets, I came to realize that they weren't that hard to find.


If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored; If you remove unrighteousness far from your tent, and place your gold in the dust, and the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks, then the Almighty will be your gold and choice silver to you. For then you will delight in the Almighty, and lift up your face to God. You will pray to Him, and He will hear you; and you will pay your vows. You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways. When you are cast down, you will speak with confidence and the humble person He will save. He will deliver one who is not innocent, and he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands. Job 22:23-30

Happy Valentime's Day!

Amel and I actually celebrated Valentine's day yesterday. We've made it a tradition to celebrate the day before because the actual day is always busy. I really don't believe in this "holiday" because I think it should be Valentine's day everyday. Nonetheless, I still enjoy going out on this day. Since it was a Wednesday, we had limited time since the kids were at the building and their Buzzie Bee and GTC classes were going to be done at 9pm.

Anyway, we went to one of my favorite restaurants, Olive Garden. We had to take Zoey with us, which is fine because she's pretty easy going. Zoey is very sweet, but she eats more than Juliet and Ricky put together. As soon as the food came out, she started eating non-stop. I wish I had taken a picture of her belly after dinner, it gets so big!

I hope you all have a great day and are able to spend it with the one you love.
