What Were You Made For?

        One of the most amazing things in life for me is creating, Running around all day thinking of different ideas. I flood my husband's ears with stories of what I "should" be doing. On a daily basis. I tell him what my dreams are, I tell him what fun things I think we should do as a family. I babble on and on about different quests that God has me going into. Poor guy, I think that if he didn't love me as much as he does he would say SHUT IT WOMAN, NO MORE IDEAS FOR TODAY OKAY! And to think that I only share with him probably about half of what really goes on in my head!

             All of the sudden I got this idea that God was calling me to  "change the world". I know what you're thinking. CRAZY right. I know!!!  I've always thought that God wired me to some how become a famous actress and have all this fame and fortune. For many years of my life I enjoyed being on stage and persuing a career in acting/modeling/dancing/singing/being strawberry shortcake for Toys R Us. I actually got paid to be the very last one... see

             I wasn't lying!  After many failed attempts at a non-fulfilling quest for stardom, I called it quits and decided my life had to go elsewhere. Boy am I glad for that decision, for I was extremely blessed with an understanding husband and a freakin' cute ass daughter. Could I ask for more?! NO. However, I STILL had this weird burning desire in my belly that had me wondering, am I where I'm supposed to be and am I doing all that God has created me for? God has placed that fire burning inside of me for a reason. There is something I must do in this life, and God has equip me perfectly to execute it. But what is it!!?? . Those were some of my questions that I would ask myself so many days until one day I got the answer, or should I say I listened!

           My quest is none-the-less being a good example of what God's love can do for a person. I know now that in order for ME to change the world, I need to change for the better every single day. I have to share the love with anyone that will listen. I have to stop clinging on to what I "thought" my life would be and start embracing what my life IS and what I will do TODAY in order to help someone else. When I started thinking of others and not myself is when I knew that the reason God made me wanting to be on "stage" was so that I would do that in His glory and let all who will listen know how much he loves them and how cool it is to be enamored with Him.

           My life is no different than when I had all these questions about who I was. It's no different than when I questioned my purpose in life. The only thing that's changed is my focus to God and paying attention and following Him in what he NEEDS ME to do. Loving one person at a time. Being kind, loving, and respecting the people that are placed in my life.

         It feels great knowing that what I'm doing in my life is hopefully helping others find their place in the world and how to make the best of this life. Today take some time to be in a quiet place and just listen to what God wants YOU to do! Listen and if it's something good you can bet your toshie, it is really God speaking to you.  I hope you have a great day!

- Stay blessed and stay saucy! Oh and check out my Youtube channel HERE! It's full of crazy shenanigans and such. Let me know if there is something you'd like to read about, or some feed back about how these blogs are affecting you! I would love to know if these are really helping anyone..... 

Pornography

              Racy title eh? I know what you're thinking, nasty,right? Well aren't you a little curious why I would name a blog this word? Well, party it was to get your attention (and it worked didn't it!?) and partly it was because it has something to do with this week's blog. Go on if you dare....
             I follow a wonderful girl on Youtube that has a website dedicated to changing lives by providing fitness videos and diet tips. I found her about two months ago and ever since then I've been hooked. This gal is amazing and has the strongest body ever. She is a beautiful girl inside and out. Her videos are funny and provide you with the tools necessary to take your fitness goals to the next level with out having to leave your home.  Plus her workouts are super short and easy (NOT! THEY ARE THE TOUGHEST WORKOUTS I'VE EVER DONE!) but short for the most part, which is crucial for me since I'm a mommy on the go! Any who, I hope if she ever gets to read this blog she doesn't get offended. I actually think the world of her even though I've never met her. But here's why I named the blog the way I did. About a month ago I found out that my girl had been in the pornography industry a long time ago and automatically my view about her changed. I all of the sudden felt as if I didn't know her...... (Umm, funny thing is I DON'T really know her but you know what I mean) I was having a really hard time watching her work-out videos and thinking what drove her to do such thing. Here are two parallels at plane sight. She used to be in a taboo industry and now she's helping millions of people transform their lives. What a contrast!  I got to thinking about what makes me anyone to judge her. Here's the thing, if you or I had proof of every thing that we regret in our lives on the internet we would have no excuse to point any fingers at anyone about their mistakes. If anyone could just type in, Libier's mistakes on Google.com,  I would be screwed! The expression, don't point your finger at anyone because you have three pointing right back at ya' is so true to me right now!   I know all of my sins and all the things that I regret in my life and to even just think about them makes me cringe. Can you imagine if it was in plain view for the whole world to see? I would just want to curl up in a little ball and hide. Now,is that what "my friend" has done? NOPE! She is out there being a positive force for the whole world to see and to help people. She found her calling and she never looked back. Who am I to judge her or anyone else?! No one, that is. Why was I letting her past influence how I viewed her now, especially since she's even helping me so much by motivating me and providing me with workouts that have helped me get stronger!
 I think it's funny how our human nature works, I see someone who is doing something bad and I criticize them with out thinking and I can talk about other people's misfortunes like I know what I'm talking about, as if I have nothing in my skeleton closet. But God knows all. He does not see a difference in sin. He sees my sin of judging and being nasty towards others as sad as "my friend" being in porn. I know that's hard to comprehend, but it is true. My thoughts are that I need to quit being a Judgy McJudgerson and just leave that up to God (harder said than done, but it is my goal to be less judgmental). It's amazing the things we can do with God's strength.The changes that can manifest in our souls if we allow his holy presence to be in us and shine. My human nature is way to ugly for me, I know that I NEED God in my life to help me be a better person. And he does every time I let him, every single time!

Thanks for reading folks. Stay blessed and for heaven's sake.... stay saucy!!!

Horrible Day (With a side of salmon and a puppy!)

I seriously just had the most intense day. It was scary and super emotional! First things first. My mom needed me to pick up some medications her Dr. was going to have her try out, so I went to the afterhours clinic on Stockton Boulevard (already a little scared are ya? J.K. Stockton isn’t that scary). Maddy had JUST fallen asleep so I put her car seat in the stroller and strolled my booty up to the reception office at Dr. Fakerhy’s (um, imagine my mom saying this with her Mexican accent, I thought I had to wash her mouth with soap the first few times she was telling me her Dr.’s name) I got the meds and asked the receptionist if I could speak to the Dr. and as I was waiting a very large man walked in the office. He took a seat and just stared at the receptionist, within a few seconds of very creep-ly staring action he started screaming, yes I said SCREAMING at the top of his lungs, “Well, are you going to give me some salmon while I wait for this Dr. or what!?” Receptionist, “Ummm, we don’t sell any food here.” Very large man, “Sooo what am I supposed to do while I’m waiting here! Huh!? I’m starving! I need mental health help?!” Me “Ah, I don’t need to speak with the Dr. anymore” With the fastest I’ve ever moved Maddy’s stroller, ping, I was out the door! I was so scared for Maddy and my safety because the man followed me out. I kept praying for God to protect us and he totally did. Once I got into my car I was literally shaking. I don’t know why, but now that I’m writing this, it seems kind of silly and it’s making me giggle a little but I was legitimately scared when I was experiencing it! I have never been so shaky in my life. I think that having Maddy made me even more scared because if it had just been me I don’t think it would’ve been such a big deal.  

Second part of this intense and scary day: As I was driving home from dropping of my mom’s medicine, I was on the freeway and from really far away I could see the car in front of me slowing down, but I didn’t slow down enough. I had to pretty much slam on my breaks because before I could say Dr. Fakerhy the car in front of me was at a dead stop. But no one else on the freeway was. I then glanced at my review mirror and the car behind me was about to hit me, but he swerved very efficiently to the left and got us both out of harm’s way. Then the car in front of me speed off to the left and I was left with the most devastating picture ever. A run over puppy! I did not know what to do and all I kept thinking was poor puppy and oh God I do not want to cause a huge accident on the freeway. So I continued forward and went over the puppy because I was dead stopped and every other car to my right and my left was zipping by at 60mph! I didn’t hit the puppy, I just went over it but after looking back and seeing it one more time, I just lost it. Hysterical crying. I haven’t cried as much as I did today in a long while. I was so scared for so many lives and so sad for the poor little creature that had been run over. But Alas, life goes on. It just sucks that we have to experience such sad, scary or difficult days. The one positive thing I took out of it is that I cannot appreciate the really good days if I don’t learn from the crap ones. I am truly blessed in so many ways though! I know my blessings outweigh the “bad” experiences of today. I know that I have something great looking after me and protecting me from anything I cannot handle.  I feel so grateful to have God in my life every day, but especially in days such as today. I hope you all are having wonderful days!

Stay blessed, stay saucy!
