The bucket list in my head
It's almost the end of the first quarter of 2013 and it's time to write and share goals with my readers, so I can be accountable. No more excuses. 

 Sure, my life turned up-side-down during the last quarter of 2012, but that's history. On to get important things done because there are things that matter to me...and here they are:

  1. I will finish that first manuscript for my first book
  2. I will return to my lay ministry 
  3. I will restore and revive personal relationships that matter
  4. I will work on learning how to surrender to what matters to God.
I do have a few bucket list things I'd like to do this year:

  1. I'd like to finish several books I've started reading
  2. I'd like to organize my bedroom to make it my sanctuary
  3. I'd like to make my doctor happy by working out five days a week for 45 minutes...not sure if I commit but I will do my best

What's on your plate for 2013? It's the perfect time to rethink what is important. After all, we're not guaranteed tomorrow.

My Divine Devotions: The test really is simple

-
December 20, 2010 Psalm 139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my thoughts. What would it look like if we humbled ourselves before God and asked him to look deep into our heart? What does your family heart look like? How does the heart you show to your spouse, kids and family look? How’s your heart when it comes to your coworkers, neighbors and the maid who sweeps the floors where you work or study? The only test that counts is the one conducted by God. On a scale of one to 10, where do your thoughts rank? And, are you using God’s criteria or your own? The test really is simple: Love God with all your heart and love others as yourself. God’s grading system is simple: Either we pass or fail. Look deep into my heart, God, and find out everything I am thinking.

Why I write this blog

-
Family and friends, My entire reason for maintaining this Journey blog is to inspire you to seek God (Matthew 28:19-20) and to read the Scriptures for yourself so that your soul might live on in eternity in His glorious presence (Revelation 21:11).  I've experienced His powerful presence here, right now on earth. This is why I'm passionate! But I'm overwhelmed just thinking of His future fully-revealed glory!  I can't wait! Love, Blanca

The 3 best days of my life - so far. Based on Acts 17:27

October 19, 2013 Acts 17:27 - Living Bible (TLB) “His purpose in all of this is that they should seek after God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him—though he is not far from any one of us. Since I read a wonderful  post  on Maria Shriver’s blog, this post has been swirling in my brain. While cleaning treasures from my closet this morning, I found one of my many journals.  At that time, I had experienced the second happiest day of my life. Before I write about those days, I must tell you what I know for sure now. May 2, 2006  is the best day of my life. Period. There will be no other better day while I am living on Earth because on that day,  I saw the hand of God  and my life changed forever.  It was an unexpected supernatural occurrence. God wanted to get my attention.  He did.  Life has never been more exciting, joyful, painful and meaningful. I can blog about the milestones of my life, but there is no more significant milestone for me than
