Novica's Nuggets of Faith

Hello Friends, It is so good to be able to come back on this page and express my thoughts and dreams.  This past year has had it's challenges.  The Women's group attendance slowly dwindled in the fall. I evaluated my approach and realize that there needs to be more creativity in my lessons,  and the onset of the frigid weather caused many to hold tight to their warm homes. So I suspended the meetings and good thing because we had THE worst winter ever! Subzero temperatures  dominated the winter season and almost record snow falls.  It was absolutely the craziest winter that I can recall.  Cabin fever was really setting in and during that time my husband and I decided to start making marriage vlogs.   We have 5 episodes so far and we have been having so much fun  making the videos and coming up with subjects.  So tune into our "Marriage Matters" episodes and let me know what you think.  If you have any ideas for an episode...

There is nothing that I could give to God except the one thing that he desires and that Is my life. Everyday I am reminded of how pitiful I am without Him in my life.  So many times I feel like what is the use, Lord I feel so inadequate to do your will, but all along he gave me everything I needed to give him my all.  I am his workmanship and he is marveling over what he put in me.  The problem is me,  I realize that the one thing that I have to give to God is my life.  It is all that I have to give, It is all you have to give, so give it all to him, heart, mind body and soul!  I have nothing else to bring to the table but that of the one thing he granted me and that is life.  My prayer is that we all realize that we are his workmanship,  we once were lost, without order and our lives were Godless, but he loved us so much that he adopted us into His royal family that we too have the opportunity to have fellowship with God, that we to have the...

It is really something how I end up coming  back to my blog each year only to post 1 or 2 blogs.  It is my determination to do more blogging and Videos, I am looking to get a better laptop and get to work.  I have a few engagements this year and I am also working on a manuscript that I hope to complete within the next year.  I solicit every one's prayers and ask that you follow me in this process as I go forth. upcoming events Feb 3, 2013   @ 3pm     Step into your Place Through Faith                                               Grace Family Worship Center                     ...

I truly believe that this year is going to be a year like no other, changes are already on the way and though the process seems quite scary, just like Joseph, no matter what comes in my life I am going to hold on to the vision that God has given me and my husband.  I realize that although certain things that happen in my life, never were truly made to keep me down, (although the devil meant it for evil) God has a plan for my life and everything that happened from now to my past has been a set up for my latter greatness, not for me to get the glory but for God to have all the glory.   Many people have so many ideas of what it means to be holy and righteous, but they forget about the relationship  they are supposed to have with Jesus and begin to live in their own traditions and mindset that totally excludes battered and imperfect people like you and I.  I no doubt feel that there are certain fruits that come from having a relationship with God (Galatians 5:19-...

Many people ask me what my hairstyle of choice is. If you have been with me from the beginning of my Natural hair journal which started June of 2010 then you would know that I absolutely love 2 strand twists. I love to spend 8 hours twisting my hair just so that I can have a couple of weeks of virtually maintenance free hair care. the 8 hours fly by with a couple of movies and of course I break in between to feed my belly, but it's relaxing to me and knowing that my hair is rewarding me for not assaulting it with the flatiron on a daily basis by growing healthy and strong is enough for me. So with that said I have compiled some pictures of my natural 2 strand twist journey in the last two years, enjoy!
