Daughter of a King

Daughter of a King What did you just say? Oh, that’s what you think of me? I almost fell into that pack of lies. But contrary to what you think or say, let me explain to you just who I am….. I am a daughter of a King, the King of Kings, My Daddy!!   My Daddy tells me I am a new creation; redeemed, called, clothe in righteousness, an heir, no longer dead, made alive, no longer lost, found, no longer blind, the veil removed, no longer bound, unchained, free, Holy and blameless, forgiven, but most of all I am LOVED!   I could listen and believe what you say, and some of it might even have a slight bit of truth (my pass), but my Daddy doesn’t punish me for sins that Jesus already paid for in full. Besides, I much rather hear what my Daddy has to say. He speaks Truth!   I could go on and on about what my Daddy says about me but I think you get it. I know I do!   I know I AM A DAUGHTER of a KING!! Satan can deter our minds, distract us, accus...

In The Valley

  I once heard a wise woman say, "a relationship with Christ is built in the valley and not on the mountain top", I truly believe this. It is here that the Lord walks with you, and here where He begins to prune you for what's next. I didn't truly understand this until a few weeks back when I was going through something in my life. Right there in the valley I stood thinking I was all alone, when indeed I wasn't . Psalm 91:1(NLT) "Those who live in the shelter of the MOST HIGH will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty." Well I can truly say I wasn't living in that shelter. I was so focused on my circumstances I couldn't see my own two feet. I thought I was strong enough to carry/ handle my circumstances!! HAHAHAHA boy was I ever wrong! I needed to give my burdens to Jesus, let Him have it. Matthew 11:28(CEB) "Come to me, all you who are struggling hard and carrying heavy load, and I will give you rest." For a couple weeks during th...

Unleash The Book!

A few days ago my Pastor Perry Noble released his debut book Unleash! MAN!!! This book helped me take a look at my own life, and  I had to ask myself, why in the world was I living a "normal" life. I was living my life by going through the days trying to figure it out. This statement floored me when I read it, "It's completely possible to live with a purpose rather than stumbling through our days trying to figure it out." Wow! I thought for a long time I was just suppose to sit and wait on God to drop it on me, whatever "IT" was. I am/ was that person sitting there enduring life, but I wasn't embracing it. After reading Unleash! I know God has called me to embrace this life. I was created on purpose, with a purpose, and for a purpose. But more than anything, I now believe/ know that God wants to do more in my life than I can imagine!!! My life is His and I surrender to His will.  So if you haven't bought this book to read, I would STRONGLY s...

New Years Resolutions

Why do we set resolution? Good question, I've been wondering this for years now. Is it just what we do, a tradition, or something to keep our focus for a little while? Well, the past two years I have not set a New Years Resolution. Why? I have figured out that I can start a lot of things, but I never seem to quite finish them, or finish well for that matter. Most of my life I've stated in making resolutions, that I wanted to loose weight, start saving money, read the whole Bible, stop cussing, and travel to name a few. Well I can tell you that over the years I have done very little of these things. (Loose weight, hahahahaha; more like gained, start saving money; more like HUH, WHAT, read the whole Bible; more like I'll read the New Testament, stop cussing; more like I'm still working on it, and travel more, well I've been a couple of places.) The Bible says in Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind....

Recieving Compliments

To give someone a compliment is nice, But what really gets me going is when you give a compliment and they don't except it or put themselves down. For instance (true story) conversation with a pregnant woman... Wow, you look Amazing, Beautiful, you got the whole pregnant glow and all!! Really, well I feel like a beached whale, with all this weight I've gained, I can't fit anything! Oh! OK, I thought that's what you're supposed to do when you become pregnant, right?  I want a baby and I'm happy, but not the weight gain, feeling miserable, and unlike myself. OK this is where I wanted to just blow up and go off!! I didn't of course, you know with all the pregnant hormones I felt it was best not to say a word (if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all, Right!). I walked away with this thought (or thoughts). First, you have been blessed to carry life inside of you, A Miracle!!! A lot of women would love, and have died to be in your positio...

Reflections

Hey world!  Well I'm back, yea I know its been a long time, like 2 months, but hey like I said in my very first blog, I write when, what, & how I want to. So There!! LOL!! Well as I sit here I am reflecting on the many blessing that the Lord has given me, and I'm in COMPLETE AWE!!! But today my main reflection has been about Kenya & the many things I learned, saw, experienced, & received while I was over there. I kept a daily journal of my feelings and the things we did, but today for some reason Kenya is just tugging on my heart. I always thought/knew I would think about it from time to time, but I never thought I would have this unexplainable thing churning inside. I can not for the life of me put into words about how I feel, but to sit back and reflect on what God has shown me is truly AMAZING! One of my Kenya teammates said this in a debriefing meeting, "Everything has a time & a place, and when God revels to us the plan/plans He has for us and why He s...

1st blog post ever!!!

Well, this is my first blog EVER. I never thought I would want to blog, but so far it's OK. I really don't know what to say or type for that matter, but i know it will come to me in a matter of time, I just have to get use to writing/ typing my thoughts. The question I'm asking myself right now is do I write everyday, just once a week, or just whenever? I chose... just whenever!! My blog, my thoughts, and my way! Ha! Yes, I think I like the sound of that a little to much!! So, now.....hmmmm.......oh well maybe Ill have something tomorrow, or just whenever!!!!
