Welcome to Olivia's Daughter....a blog that I created in March 2010 to document my blessed journey of healing. Since I began this blog, my mother has gone home to be with the Lord along with my son, Chris Reshaud Jordan, who was murdered in October 2009. After these two devastating events, I felt forsaken by God. I cried out to the Lord seeking my purpose in life. Throughout this experience, I had to make the choice to surrender to a life of worthlessness or to live my life to the fullest, a life filled with abundance and love.


God has strengthened me. I am seeking Him daily and and working to live in His will which is leading me to my purpose and passion. I think of Chris and Olivia constantly, but I have turned this over to God. I want God to use me as his vessel giving Him the glory.

Hump Day !

Hump Day ! Good Day ! Just Another Day that the Lord has blessed me. Just another day that the Lord has blessed me. Boy did my mom love that old hymn. I know now why she loved and appreciated this hymn. The Lord blesses me and keeps me from losing it. I ask him daily to give me peace and to keep my anxiety down. I know I suffer with depression and anxiety as my mother did. I know when I take care of God’s temple I feel so much better and so alive. I am blessed that the Lord blesses and gives us new mercies every day. It feels so good to know God loves me for who I am. I have tons and tons of paperwork to process. I will get it done, no doubt. I ask that the Lord give me what I need to do it and do it with a caring spirit. Our department is down a worker and so we are all taking on more assessments. My supervisor has done two already this week. We are trying to keep the beds full which helps the agency survive financially. Today is my off day from workout, it is my day to let my muscles relax. During our workout yesterday, we got DOWN. Camille work it out !!!!!!!!! Again we had so much energy. I modified the routine to the best of my ability. When I feel like giving up I ask God for strength and I get through. Cardio is so exciting, ab work is much needed, so I do it. Today’s weather is wonderful, it makes me appreciate God even more. I was actually able to wear my sunglasses J I continue to experiment with self improvement things to help boost my self esteem. Eating: Breakfast: orange, coffee/creamer Lunch: Progresso Traditional Barley Soup (160 calories). Lunch was delicious and warm.
