My Husband, Son, and I had our first and hopefully last encounter with COVID-19. It brought us even closer together and God brought us through once again. Here's our story.

The Simply Sef PodcastThe Simply Sef Podcast - Season 3, Episode #4 - "Stop All That Lyin'"We all know what lying is. We know how it feels when we're lied on, and lied to. What about when WE lie?

The Simply Sef PodcastThe Simply Sef Podcast - Season 3, Episode #3 - "An Unselfish Love"Check your love. Check how you love. Check to make sure that you truly know what pure love is. God showed me how my prayers for my Husband weren't as pure as I thought they were because my love needed refining. I pray that my realization helps someone to examine themselves so that God gets the glory from their expression of love.
For Scripture reference, see 1 Corinthians 13:1-8 (AMP).

The explanation of the “control-alt-delete” action is: “The key combination in Windows that enables a user to terminate an unresponsive application. When all three keys are pressed at the same time, the Task Manager utility, which displays all open apps, can be selected from a menu. The Task Manager enables the user to shut down the computer.” If the action or goal is unresponsive, start it over and try again. No you are NOT a failure!!!! I dare you to get up and try it again :)
