“Strength and splendor are her garments; and she rejoices in time to come. She shall open her mouth with wisdom and on her tongue is the Torah of loving-commitment” Prov. 31:25-26

… this is GOALS! The prayer of my heart and aspiration on the daily. I do fall short many times (all do), but working towards this keeps me focused on my Father and His desire for me to be grounded in Him.

Hi, I’m Nora Gomez. I spend my time with my kids and husband learning the Scriptures and living a life committed to being living sacrifices for the King (hopefully the kind that don’t try to constantly jump off the altar).

In education for over a decade now, I became a full-time home educator in 2019. I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology, Master of Arts in Human Services Counseling – Marriage and Family Therapy, and am currently working on a Doctor of Education in Community Care and Counseling – Traumatology with a dissertation on postpartum stress.

Sometimes I have a need to write things down. If you sometimes have a need to read some things then hopefully you enjoy the blog posts below. Let me know if you do!

Shalom!
