As I journey through life I’ve picked up lessons along the way. I’ve learned a lot from the people I’ve met, from what I’ve read, and from my own experiences as a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a friend, a woman and a child of God.
Here are 40 things I have learned in life. I have learned that…
1. the saying Let Go and Let God is really true. When God tells us to rest in Him, He means it. Sometimes we just need to sit and do NOTHING
2. giving is indeed better than receiving. There is more joy in giving than receving
3. a nice reddish lipstick can do the trick.
4. to hear from God, you really need to take time to listen.
5. God keeps His promises, and He doesn’t lie.
6. the perfect accessories can brighten any outfit.
7. life is a classroom.
8. wearing high heels with a toddler in tow is a recipe for disaster.
9. to whom much is given, much is required – with great blessing comes greater responsibility
10. the words “please don’t tell anyone, this is just between the two of us” is most often just a cliche’ and is not even taken seriously by most people. every gossip starts with this opening line.
11. God’s mercies are new every morning.
12. nothing in this world can give us contentment.

18. the grass always seems greener on the other side, but once you’re there, you realize your original side of grass was not bad at all.
19. we need to live within our means.
20. it is not a wise idea to drink frappucino at 6:30 pm onwards. it kept me up all night.
