Don’t Discount Your Past
When I look back at my life so far, what I have gone through, what I have done and where I have been I just have to say thank you God!

By Myself… I Could Not Even Get Out of The Parking Lot! (Part 1 of 2)
“In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.” – Proverbs 3:6 Amplified “Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall.” – Proverbs 16:18 Amplified July 2nd 2013 Last week I took my road test for the first time in Texas and failed. I had become crippled by the spirit of fear. When I went to take the test I was not sure about my performance of one particular driving maneuver. That lack of confidence paralyzed me so that I was not able to get out of the DPS (Department of Public Safety / Department of Motor Vehicle)…

It’s Your Time by Joel Osteen (In Progress Book Review)
This post is for my fellow bookworms. My current book of focus is by Joel Osteen and is entitled “It’s Your Time – Activate Your Faith, Achieve Your Dream, and Increase in God’s Favor”. I originally purchased the book shortly after it came out in 2009. Pastor Joel’s ministry is one of the ones I follow and receive regular communications from. His simple yet profound message of “Hope and Faith” resonates with my Spirit and so I have been following him and his wife Victoria since I first heard of them through my pastors, Dr. Creflo A. and Taffi L. Dollar. I am currently only a third of the way…

I fail forward… Never backwards. Every experience has a moral/lesson attached to it.
What is an excuse? My pastor regularly uses this quote “Excuses are the nails used to build a house of failure.” ~Don Wilder and Bill Rechin I took my driver’s road test today and failed. I could use the excuse that it was raining cats and dogs here in New York. Or the fact that the other student scheduled with me was talkative and nervous and overly excitable. Or that my DMV inspector decided to take a break just as we were preparing for our test. I could actually use any of those excuses however they would not be pointing the finger to who really was at fault …me. Spiritually,…

What a Life Changing Experience… My First Visit to Linda
Hello Ladies! I just had to share this… highly personal experience with you. Before preparing for my wedding, I had never thought of going to get professionally fitted for a bra. I thought I was still the measurements I was when I first went bra shopping as a teenager with my older sister/cousin. I thought when I began to see marking on my shoulders; it just meant I needed to replace my bra, not that it was poorly fitted. Or even with weight gains or losses my bra size had not changed so much. I was so wrong! Last month, I went wedding dress shopping. At the bridal shop, I…

I’m tired of this mess
“I’m tired of this mess” … Have you ever caught yourself saying that or thinking it as you were working on something or with someone else? Have you ever prayed for patience just before the mess began and wondered why what little patience you had to begin with was being tested? Newsflash… You asked for the mess…ahem I mean the test. How do you think patience is gained? A muscle only shows definition when it has been developed… So are the godly attributes that make up good character. Just pass the test… you asked for the mess and your proctor the Holy Spirit is with you. John 16:33 MSG 31-33Jesus answered…

Lessons from Iniquity …Bring Deliverance to a Broken Generation
Exodus 34:9 (Amplified Bible) 9And he said, If now I have found favor and loving-kindness in Your sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray You, go in the midst of us, although it is a stiff-necked people, and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for Your inheritance. Did you know a generational curse can be broken and become a generational lesson…? How? If it is received by a teachable heart, humble spirit, which is also willing to make sacrifices and make, changes by faith for the better. The other day as I was entering my apartment building I was confronted with something that I had wished I…

A Week After Valentine’s Day
Just a week ago today was Valentine’s Day and I am still basking in the love and affection shown by my Coach. There is something to be said about simplicity. When you practice loving someone everyday it doesn’t take much to impress them. Flowers die, teddy bears gather dust, but words of encouragement, sentiment that feel as real as a longing embrace and as sweet as a butterfly kiss across your cheek… are priceless!
