Wine, Cigarettes, Rap Music, and the Love of God

Last updated on: October 26, 2013 at 9:14 pm By Leticia Adams

There are so many parts of my life that have changed since the day that I had my encounter with Jesus 5 years ago. First of all, I really should make it clear that I knew who Jesus was since I was 8 years old. The people at the First Baptist Church told me who He was. They told me all about how God loved me and I answered many altar calls in my time there. If I didn’t understand... Read more

Dear Lady with the Stupid Husband

Last updated on: October 11, 2013 at 9:32 pm By Leticia Adams

Dear Lady with the Stupid Husband First of all, let me say this, your husband has a say in how his children are raised and in how his damn wife speaks about him on the internet. I am a wife. I have a husband. I am sure you would look at my life and think that I’m some twit who can’t think for herself and that’s why I allow my husband to oppress me. Not to mention the Pope. (not...

It is Time to be Merciful and Kind; Like My Husband Is.

Last updated on: October 9, 2013 at 2:35 pm By Leticia Adams

I have been pulling my hair out for the last week trying to figure out how to change how I talk to my husband. We have fought a lot lately. I’m not going into details, but seriously, I was about to call an exorcist; still considering it. But yesterday I was at the end of my rope. As a Catholic, I am married for the rest of my life to this man, if that means living in different houses so... Read more

7 Quick Takes (Vol 8)

Last updated on: September 20, 2013 at 9:14 am By Leticia Adams

1. The good thing about being late to the 7 Quick Takes party is that I can read Jen’s list and cheat off of it. 2. That means that I can answer the question of what my personality theme song would be. I am an ENFP and my personality them song would be “Born Free” by Kid Rock. Yep, when I hear that song my soul sings “YES!”. The video is the BEST. 3. I’m listening to it right... Read more

Mary, My Mother

Last updated on: September 17, 2013 at 1:45 am By Leticia Adams

I grew up with a Catholic family. My mom and all of my aunts had statues and pictures of Mary everywhere. Even though I was not raised really understanding what Catholics believed about Mary or why, I was not ever really shocked by any of it. My mom had the biggest wooden Rosary that you ever saw hanging above her bed my whole life. I didn’t really get it and I had my misconceptions about the whole deal based on... Read more

I Am More Than My Facebook

Last updated on: September 13, 2013 at 6:49 pm By Leticia Adams

If you have followed my blog posts for the past week, or just know me, you will know that I have had a rough time lately. When I was going through RCIA the director who ran it told me that some people are “hard soil” and when God starts tilling it, it hurts. Our souls are like gardens and so we go through phases just like gardens do. There is a time to blossom, plant, grow, and till. God... Read more

Sin, Contrition, Repent, Mercy, Repeat

Last updated on: September 10, 2013 at 6:26 pm By Leticia Adams

There are times when I wonder why I ever listened to that little voice that said “Follow me”. No matter how much work I do or how hard I try there is always something that would be easier to deal with if I could light someone’s car on fire. Or bust out some windows with a baseball bat. I love Jesus, I know He is real and that He is alive. But man, He asks a lot from us. I... Read more
