Life Is About To Begin

July 25, 2025 - I accepted a new job at Chili's 
July 27, 2025 - I gave my 2 week notice
July 30, 2025 - I went to my orientation and was not given my new schedule. I was told they would call me the next day.
August 3, 2025 - I still  have not heard from them.

I know what most are saying. "Well, why didn't you call them?" My most honest answer, "God is calling me to more."

I worry about working Holidays and not being with my family. I worry about driving in snow and ice when Winter comes. (I live in SC. It happened last year).  I worry about flexibility with my crafts and jewelry selling. I worry about not having the time to go to church, and help with a new church project. 

I have a plan, God's plan. He talks to me a lot when I'm sleeping. Maybe that's because it's when I'm most quiet. 

Here's what I dreamed of TWICE the last 2 nights. A purple yogurt parfait. Random, but not random to My God.


I prayed on my knees last night for the first time in my 45, almost 46 years of existence. He's guiding me and I have an overwhelming peace.

Will it be scary? Yes.
Nerve wracking? Yes.
Naysayers? Yes.

But God

He's bigger than all creation. This is my belief. I'm not here to judge what everyone else believes. Everyone is welcomed in my life. I love you all no matter what. This is a no judgements zone.

A Questionable Journey?

Why do some people, maybe it's most people, question everything they do before/while they are doing it? If we believe that God has placed us on this path for a purpose, then why are we questioning the journey? Proverbs 3:5 NIV [5] Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; Bible app I'm not gonna lie, I struggle with this, a lot, throughout my life.  My original dream....to be a Police Officer. That's all I ever wanted growing up. I had the opportunity 3 times, and, due to circumstances,  I never followed through. Somehow I now have a new dream.  Books, Crafts, and Coffee Another one coming to light is  Brooke's Treasure Chest  on eBay. I absolutely love thrifting. I can't wait to see what treasures I can find. This goes back to the question - Why do some people, maybe it's most people, question everything they do before/while they are doing it?  What are your thoughts and insights? I'd love to know. -Brooke

God's Story

I recently heard a news report on the radio that there are certain type of employees within the job world. There was one that struck my right in the gut.  I am working one job, and always looking for the next best thing. I'm tired of not being paid what I'm worth. I know that the owners want their business to make money, and they can only afford to pay what they can. I understand that. I'm just tired of no being able to afford general needs like food. I know everyone has something to say about this. I just didn't think at almost 46 years old I would be where I'm at. Granted,  I didn't think I'd have 2 divorces under my belt, too. During my second marriage, and then my divorce, I thought I lost my faith in God. I was angry at God for a long time, but I still talked to him. He has definitely shown up these last 2 years, and I still need to sit and listen. God really loves to knock me around with a 2x4. Photo from Graham Baird I'm al...
