A series of events, coming soon

He will do what he said he will do...

Today’s Scripture

“Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice” (Isaiah 41:10, AMP).

Where two or more gather in my name...I am in the presence

I have a mentor who is truly a man of God. When he speaks, he speaks from his heart: truth, liberating and moving. Today was a day that I will reflect on for the rest of my life. A day that I acknowledge as...a divine appointment. I always say to him that when he speaks, I can't help but to write away, each word landing, resonating such truth, words so profound. Today I took over two pages of notes...notes that I can refer back to at times I need a spiritual boost. to be cont....

His ways are not ours

It was recently that I watched come to pass the word that was spoken, presented in a vision. Roughly a year ago, I recall seeing a vision of connecting with this person for a greater purpose. One in which I was not clear of, but had much to do with Kingdom building. It was a peculiar vision, nonetheless I did not deny the reality of it coming to pass. Instead I held on to the notion accordingly to Hebrews 13:12 Equipt you in every good thing to do His will. "May this God of peace prepare you to do every good thing He wants," as stated in the word. "May He work in us through Jesus Christ to do what is pleasing to him."
I remind myself that his ways are not my ways. Knowing this I lean on the notion that he has a plan, not my plan Lord, but your be done. Know my will, but according to your will let it be done, let it manifest. I know this...

Changing the Pace of my life one step at a time

The last time I wrote was a few days before the Celebrating of Life for my dear friend, LaRessa. What a weekend it was - from beginning to the end, her vision was manifested and I was blessed to be apart of it.

It is January 2, 2009. A New Year, a chance to tackle some new goals as a special person recently shared.

A simple goal for me is to take every step toward Living my Life with purpose, loving passionately, loving God with passion, giving thanks, stopping the complaining -- sensitive to the spirit, walking in grace, at a focused pace, placing myself in the place to hear from the spirit, relaxed and ready to listen. Thank you Joyce Meyer for teaching me how to enjoy everyday life.

"But by fervent prayer let us seek to be filled with the Spirit, and to avoid whatever may grieve our gracious Comforter. All God's people have reason to sing for joy. Though we are not always singing, we should be always giving thanks; we should never want disposition for this duty, as we never want matter for it, through the whole course of our lives. Always, even in trials and afflictions, and for all things; being satisfied of their loving intent, and good tendency. God keeps believers from sinning against him, and engages them to submit one to another in all he has commanded, to promote his glory, and to fulfil their duties to each other."
- Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

Like Fire

I stand here today a new creature. But the most interesting part about this whole process is one needs time alone to channel and concentrate wholly. Like fire I am warmed by his love. Like fire I am purged from inequities. Though I feel alone, it is what I need most for God to shape me , mold me, guide me, focused and fine-tuned me. Fire is good and I like this fire.
