Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J“ January 20, 2023 “Actions Speak LOUDER than Words,” Just as the body is dead without breath, so also faith is dead without good works… James 2:26 The phrase ‘actions speak louder than words’. It carries a powerful message about the importance of living out your beliefs and taking action rather than always talking about them. Actions truly demonstrate commitment, courage, and progress. It is by taking action, you can show yourself and other people

By: Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J November 18, 2022 As we approach the holiday season, my mind began to focus on the awesomeness of life. Life is simply a miracle that we as humans can barely understand or comprehend the intricate details of. How is it we go to sleep at night and wake up in the morning, most times without an alarm clock or someone waking us? This is something I ponder regularly. If you have never wondered about this yourself, I bet you will contemplate it now.

October 21, 2022 Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J “ John 16:33… “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” How do you find peace amid the chaos and confusion of the heart, mind, soul, and world? If you're going to live in peace, it's not going to happen by accident! Every day, we have opportunities to get upset or to be offended. LIFE happens, people get on your nerves, unexpect

Writer: Jacqueline B. ~Jackie “Lady J” Miller September 16. 2022 Growing up in a family of 4, mostly with a single mother (because my step-father was in and out) we weren’t rich, not even close. We lived in a 3 bedroom, 1.5-bathroom townhouse in East Baltimore, County. We didn’t have a basement, nor a backyard. However, we had a swimming pool and a tennis court. Don’t get too excited for me. We shared it with every other family in the development we lived in. Because of the a

Writer: Jacqueline B. ~Jackie “Lady J” Miller August 19, 2022 Have you ever wondered if that reflection you see daily in the mirror is your actual image? When you think about it, the concept is confusing isn’t it? Try this, put on your favorite t-shirt and go to the mirror. Did you notice the graphics on your t-shirt are in a reversed pattern? The reflection you see is not the same as what you see when you are looking directly at the shirt. It means that it’s not your actual

Written by: Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J” July 15, 2022 With all that has been going on over the past few years, many of us have “fallen down” in so many areas, including life, business and even spiritually. Moving Through the Ups and Downs of Life can be difficult, and sometimes we simply want to give up. I don’t know about you, but I have had times when I fell flat on my face after giving all I had. What I felt like was my very best effort and yet I still hit rock bottom. W

May 20, 2022 Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J “Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue… Proverbs 31:26 When we think of the month of May, most of us think of Mother’s Day. It seems like the two words are synonymous, although they mean two different things. Without a doubt though when I think of May, I think of Mom. She was my first teacher, best friend, cook, careta

Jacqueline B. ~Jackie “Lady J” Miller April 15, 2022 TODAY is Good Friday…. Members of many Christian denominations observe Good Friday with fasting and services. It serves as a reminder of Jesus's sacrificial death on the cross. The Sacrifice that was made to save humankind so that a world dying because of sin could live because of the SACRIFICE. What are you willing to SACRIFICE so that your dreams, goals, and aspirations can live and prosper? The word sacrifice can sometim

Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J March 18, 2022 With it being Women’s History Month, I want to remind you that there is nothing you can’t do. YOU GOT THIS even when life’s distractions cause you to lose focus. You are a QUEEN in control of your own destiny. Life is Full of Distractions Have you ever noticed that when you have your mind set on doing something intentional, purposeful, essential, productive and needed, that something will get in the way? Things and people will come

Jacqueline B. Miller “Lady J “ February 18, 2022 I believe that pain, in its many forms, will show up to let us know there is brokenness within. To show the healing needs that have to take place before we can go any farther on our personal journey through life. Imagine leading a life that was full and busy, starting at three am every morning and ending most nights at ten or eleven pm. I’d get up at three a.m. to prepare breakfast, coffee and lunch for my husband, that drove 1

By Jackie (Lady J) Miller January 21, 2022 I encourage you to read this scripture and really take it in. It’s very poetic, yet it reveals a TRUTH that we all must face. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 ...a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; A time of war, and a time of peace. Have you ever thought, I can’t get over this feeling of “I can’t let go”? If I hold on, no matte
