Simple Prayer
There is something special about simple prayers. Some people think that in order for a prayer to be effective it must be long and rich with words. I believe that a simple prayer is very effective and powerful.
As soon as we get up, we thank God for such a blessing to be alive another day and be able to make a difference in someone. We send the kids to school with a prayer of protection and for them to have a good focus and learn new things. We bless our food before we eat, we pray before going to bed. This are some of the times we (or people) pray during the day. Prayer is pretty much a conversation with God. Even though He knows it all, He likes to hear then coming us.
My simple prayer today is; “God, thank you for giving me another day of life and be able to make better choices than I did yesterday. Thank you for caring for my girls and Mr. You always bring them back home safely and for that I am very thankful. Please, help me be a better listener and hear you when you are teaching me. Help me see better so that I can be aware of the things you show, specially those things that you don’t like about my character. Use me to reach out to those that need to hear from you or see you through me. I want to be able to make a difference.”This prayer is simple, but for me it is much more than that, it is full of emotion and power. You see, I am normally a shy person and I would not normally approach people for a conversation. I have pushed myself to do it, but it doesn’t come naturally. The moment that I see myself being fluent with someone and feeling comfortable about a conversation, it’s because God is in control. Those moments fills my heart with rejoice, because His plans are taking control, not mines.
Some people say the opposite. They believe that I am outgoing and cheerful. I am, but I guess that it will depend on where I am and who’s the crowd. But, my first tenancy is to shy away.
I am very thankful for this blog and the opportunity it brings me to reach out and introduce you to a simple prayer. Simplicity is also about our prayers and what those words mean for us. Words full of life. Simple prayer is not about knowing the entire bible and have bible verses memorized, simple prayer is a conversation you want to have with God. When you sit and tell Him about your day, (the good things and the bad things).

A piece of cake
This weekend was a non stopping party. We were invited to three birthday celebrations. We had a blast, no doubt about that, but we are exhausted. And the amount of sweets and pieces of cake that we ate was insane. So worth it! (more…) -
Fall {Animal Print} Handbag
Fall is in the air!
I love all the seasons, the reason for it is that they all show a marked difference on the environment. The surroundings are physically changing and the climate changes too. I just love change. That can be one of the reasons why I love fashion so much. I love the fact that fashion changes with the seasons.
I made a bag months ago that I haven’t added to the shop yet. Before I add an item, I test a sample for a while and show it off to see peoples reaction. If they complement the bag or not. If the bag goes with the season we are in or not. That is the case of this particular bag, that I ended up calling Grace Hobo Bag in Leopard. A must have for fall, if I may say so myself!
Handbags must me pretty in designs and simple in usage. The more items you add to the design the heavier it is. Most women won’t buy a bag if it is heavy on its own. Imagine how much more it will weight with your personal items inside the bag?This particular bag, the Grace Hobo bag, is made with a beautiful soft leopard fabric with a stunning black suede fabric to complement and also work as a contrast. It is light in weight, but also sturdy, it holds its shape beautifully.
If you are loving this beautiful leopard hobo bag and can see yourself (or anyone you know) using it on special occasion or daily; leave me a comment below. Also, stay in touch for an update on the shop and when this beautiful animal print Grace Hobo bag will be available.
