I'm covered by The Blood You shed, as a sacrifice you gave freely YOUR Life to save mine, before you departed you called me Friend. Then the real Miracle was on the 3rd day Risen from the Grave; so that you'd defend me at the Throne sitting at the Right hand of Our Father. You eloquently said "It is Finished" The price has been paid. The Victory has been won, the sting of death won't come near me.
Living Water, it' quenches my thirst for Life and sustains my Salvation. The WORD said I can come before HIM with just a mention of my friend JESUS'CHRIST by name. With Gladness and Thanksgiving the words come from deep within way down inner me; the Soulish Realm. At anytime of the Day be it Prayer or Meditation.
Each dimension of Life reveals another level of Love and Growth for each Lesson Learned, as I aim for that Higher Ground, my living challenge is seeking an Eternal Existence a unrelenting state of Peace in the Ever After. I remain,
Faithful in Love, and to myself I stay true. A child of the MOST HIGH GOD....

"For God hath not given us the spirit of
fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind"
(2 Tim. 1:7)
Thought: Fear knocked at the door Faith answered. No one was there.
Many years ago I
listened as a friend of mine shared in a anonymous meeting he was very
articulate and said that prior to getting clean the one thing he feared most
was change, but being a man meant standing perpendicular before GOD and when he
had made a decision to turn his will and life over to the care of GOD that
replaced all of his fear. Then he said something that most people don't say in
those closed meetings instead using the term "God of my
understanding" or "Higher Power" he said the name of Jesus
Christ. The room was quiet as he spoke loudly and bold and later those
comments were made people refer to him as a spiritual giant he begged to differ
by responding to them by simply saying "I'm no spiritual giant but there
is a GIANT in my spirit."
That takes a lot of courage for anyone to admit to have any fears at all
publicly, but many of us do. We often become complacent or get comfortable with
our lives then don't realize that when we aren't challenging ourselves often we
become stale, stagnate, and we stunt our growth. It's like eating the same
thing for dinner every other day because it's routine quick and easy then on
Saturday you treat yourself to fast food at McDonald's at the same spot order
the same thing and every time it tastes good until one day it loses the appeal
and taste. Another analogy would be to wear the same hairstyle everyday for a
period of time never change the way you comb it even part your hair the same
place. The hair style that used to get compliments somehow
appears dull and played out.
Change comes often and people evolve just as quickly as the seasons change. We
work hard at perfecting a routine with our friends, lovers, or spouses only to
look up one day and find that they have drifted off in another direction and
many times instead of accepting the fact we either run or walk quickly in the
opposite direction because we lose the stamina to embrace them where they are
at and the same thing holds true when we experience changes in our lives a need
to shift gears or do something different to improve ourselves. We can also
shift into reverse gear and do some things that destroy our character and ruin
relationships.
But one thing that is
constant in change, if nothing changes, nothing changes. As the
saying goes where ever you go there you are. So you can't be afraid of what we
understand or don't understand in life or death, sometimes it has no
explanation. So many of us are never prepared financially, mentally, or spiritually
and the end result is devastation.
When we are young their is a feeling that we will live forever or are
invincible, can leap tall buildings in a single bound. As we mature and
experience life we get some hard knocks and realize that some of those buildings
just a tad to steep to leap across. That's when we become more practical in some
cases people just ignore the facts. Some die young or live miserably because
they foolishly believe they can trick life and end up the trick. Pay now or pay
later the bill is always in the mail and one day you have to pay. So if you
living in a comfort zone, maybe it's time to raise the bar a little, you can
always become better - strive for change. Remain teachable, humble, and
lovable. Don't be afraid to embrace change - because if you living a fruitful
life you can surely count on an eternal peace when you exit the building (your
body) a living temple.
We never know what God's plan is for us - remember that it's okay to make the
plans but you can never plan the outcome.
Faith and hope is your best weapon to
overcoming fear. Prayer is your insurance policy. Love is unconditional keep an
open heart and willing mind. Even when it seems like your down you might be
down but not out. Like my friend said look straight up stand perpendicular to
GOD. Fear not. As Human beings we fall short and have many shortcomings but GOD
has never failed or come up short. Fact we can count on the sunrise and sunset.
Fact we know that there is a moon and will always come out in a way shape or form.
We know that the seasons will change and we always prepare for those changes.
Just like us we go through many seasons in life, but If we can trust GOD to do
all of that, we can trust Him with our own changes that affect our lives today.
Just for today, we can hope for a tomorrow and plan ahead. But no matter how it
all turns out we embrace it with humility without beating our chest in vain
glory.
Our faith shows us
what we cannot see.
An idea begins with a thought and then is brought forward into reality. An
artist sees the painting in his mind before it ever touches the canvas. He
touches the canvas until what was inside of his mind sets before him and the
passion makes him more eager to bring it forth. Imagination is just an image in
our mind we decide when begin - to make it a reality. Most of us go to bed at
night convinced that surely they are waking up in the morning and that's okay
too. That's called having faith.
Faith without works is dead being alone - change should not be feared but
reverenced. It takes courage to color outside the lines step outside the box-
change is an inside job with you the individual and often has a ripple effect on
others. If Beyonce wakes up in the morning and decided to go short, blond,
and curly. Just by changing her mind she will influence females to go blonder,
short, and curly too because it looks so good on her, they are convinced that
look surely will look good on me too.
Change allows you the luxury of knowing who really is for you and whoever stays
around to see that person evolve til the end are the ones you come to love and
trust. These are the people who are not afraid to be honest with you right or
wrong, good or bad. They are your mirror, mirror on the wall. Always have one
friend that won't lie to you even when it hurts and you can be reciprocal in
love, spirits, and truth. Nine times out of ten this is the person you probably
have even taken for granted along the way. Embracing Change brings you face to
face with love, love of self, life, and GOD.
Celebrate Life Everyday! - because you're evolving into a better, wiser, and you represent success.

Jeremiah 32:19great are your purposes and mighty are your deeds. Your eyes are open to the ways of all mankind; you reward each person according to their conduct and as their deeds deserve.
Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall
But, once the clouds roll by the rain dries up, we've grown from the Storms of Life waterfalls.
Known as the Emerald Isle, Ireland is so green because it receives a lot of precipitation. Typical winter weather in Ireland is clouds and rain with the occasional sunny spell, also the Amazon Forest are examples the beautiful landscapes and the Tallest Trees.
As trees grow, they help stop climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the trees and soil, and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere. Trees provide many benefits to us, every day.
Without them we'd slowly die. Trees contribute to their environment by providing oxygen, improving air quality, climate amelioration, conserving water, preserving soil, and supporting wildlife. During the process of photosynthesis, trees take in carbon dioxide and produce the oxygen we breathe.
This is their "Purpose" to protecting all life on this Planet.
As humans, we have Purpose driven lives that most of us never realize, or those that do feel the burden of living it out day by day. Taking the bitter with the sweet we make plans with high expectations anticipating success or watching as our hands are tied powerless to do anything painful experiences. It's not coincidence. GOD has brought us into this World to fulfil his purpose once our purpose in this life has be served at the appointed time the journey ends. Our reward for staying "on purpose" is eternal life, a legacy that reflects our footprint on Earth in this life; full of faith, hope, and charity.
Colossians 1:16For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.
Pursue your highest calling by discovering your purpose. ... These 10 quotes from Bishop Jakes will inspire you to relentelessly pursue your purpose in life.
I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. (Ephesians 3:16-19)
Amen!

We are born and come into the world innocent naked hoping we get a great set of parents carnal being dealt a hand only to be met with a life uniquely designed for us aligned with a bigger plan in mind.
Momma seemed to understand set me on the right path during adolescence was a cakewalk, puberty I woke up misunderstood. Being the only girl, struggling to fit in outside their world.
So I grow, learning to communicate one word, then a thought, until I can stand alone with adulthood issues to problem solve without Mommas help.
Misunderstood
Given the values of a Queen to run any “Kingdome”, coached by many mentors who taught the laws of the sacred Golden rules attended Sunday school; participated in Tom Thumb weddings being prepared to become a wife to fear and love the Lord seeing me as “The Bride” walking hand hand down the aisle. Disillusioned, I misunderstood the facts of life.
Misunderstood..
Barbe & Ken dolls, Doo Wop songs, Temptations, Ojays, Luther, and the like, Main Ingredient kept me Spinning around with high expectations compromised more than once or twice.
Surviving humiliations
With my head held high, seeking my guidance headed east pass Jupiter for the only one who truly does get me, truly loves me exactly as I am.
He understands.
Before I began to compose this, suddenly, in my solitude I hear Smokey Norvel ministering from the radio then at once to my inner voice leaping inside to the song, “I Understand,” it seemed appropriate cause you can’t choose your family, not even your lifetime partner or that handful of friends; maybe?
Who may never get who you really are that sometimes take you for granted as you evolve onward towards a magnificient journey that God has laid out just for you to follow no explanation given we struggle for answers rarely do we understand. We end up growing in truth and love as we learn how to serve our fellow Man in one-way shape or form. Whether life feels routine somewhat self righteous with little or no major ups and downs. Give him Honour, and honour those who teach you,
Just remember GOD Understands, in his word he Proclaims, I AM God the only one who changes not, day in and day out. I call on and rely on Him Jehovah Jireh my Provider, Jehovah Nissi my banner, and El Shaddai Almighty GOD, the strength giver..
Who never sleeps nor slumbers
For I can’t satisfy my own soul, my plight is solo some days I don’t fathom why God moves in his ways I end the day in prayer , getting through the mine fields each day achieving the Victory seems astounding“Thank You Lord Yeah tho I walk through the valley of the Shadow of death”! At times being persecuted by the world when it doesn’t matter if I’m minding my own business or just standing firm when controversy twists and distorts the direction of life that causes fingers to point, loud whispers, or even laughs life maybe hard but it's fair!
My mind remembering that what don’t kill you sometimes criticism hard as it seem can make you strong. Don’t be like Lot’s wife it symbol, Old Testament “she turned into a pilar of salt, New Testament describes it as being sifted as wheat”
Don't Look Back!
When people leave you or forsake you let them go. In the book, Acts of Faith remember what Iyanla proclaimed that your purpose, my purpose and other people’s purpose are but for, “A reason, a season, or a lifetime.
Walk on, through the wind, walk on thru the rain; Cry out to Him to please take my hand.
In time all things do pass away. And forgive yourself for letting go don’t hold on because moving forward is part of God’s bigger plan. He knows the prequel to the sequel better than you or I even the part about how much you are uniquely a blessing to others and often…
"Never Look Back" Live life on life terms with little or no regrets Oh GOD Please don't let me be
Misunderstood!
