Obedience is better than sacrifice!

1Samuel 15:22
“Has the Lord as great a delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As in obedience to the voice of The Lord?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
And to heed [is better] than the fat of rams.

My son has been struggling in school since he has started Kindergarten on August 23. It was hard for me because he was having a hard time. Anytime my children are down or feeling anykind of way I feel it as well. It hurts to be honest if they're feeling anything but happy! I started getting irritated and so on about even the showing of less compassion from the staff at his school. I blamed them and God put it in my heart to look at myself​. Once I did that the Holy Spirit came to me to start a water only fast. I begin to start and give up and not be  obedient. I've been praying and praying. Also, I've been meditatating and reading the word of God. Well I decided to start a water fast today and been praying more and more than I ever have for not just my son,but other things as well. Upon picking my son up from school today, this day was the best day he has had "so far" meaning there are more to come. I am trusting God for my son's breakthrough! By me being obedient and fasting I have already seen the hand of God MOVE! Trust God and remember obedience is better than sacrifice!

Don't worry!

Matthew 6:31 So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' There are many things I have worried about especially being a mother and wife. Things such as worrying about how this or that will get paid and even what will we eat? Now that I have whole heartly cast my cares on God I have truly felt the presence of him. Also, I can truly say I know what the peace that surpasses all understanding feels like! I have literally said over and over I surrendered"certain" things and really didn't in reality. Now that I have surrendered EVERYTHING over to God my father it feels GREAT!....Just a few days ago our food started to get very low to the point all I cared about is making sure my husband and kids ate because at this time I was fasting from any food. May I add GOD is so faithful! When you earnestly seek him you will find him!! My husband checked his ebt card which he hasn't gotten food benefits for

God has the final say so...

Jeremiah 29:11 NIV For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord , “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. I have experienced many test that turned into testimonies. To be honest while going through these tests it didn't feel good at all. While one of my biggest accomplishments I did was graduate high school in May 2006. I also went to technical college in Louisiana and completed a course to receive my CNA certificate. At this point it seemed as though I was on a roll on my way to being a adult. Along with being an adult I had to start going to routine Check-ups for example pap smear"It's a Woman thang" and etc. What I thought to be only a routine check up turned into shocking news. Towards the end of 2006 beginning of 2007 my Gyneocologist spoke with my mom and myself about my papsmear results. He then told us I had what was called HPV( Human Papillomavirus).I then panicked and he told me the breakdown of this vir
