I'm EXPECTING

Romans 8:23 (MSG)

22-25All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it's not only around us; it's within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We're also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.

The Lord knows what he has placed on the inside of us, and around US.  The closer we find ourselves to GOD the more He is enlarging US to become who and what he has predestined US to be.  Whatever we experience in life is only propelling US to GREATNESS!  So while we are yet waiting to become more enlarged with more of GOD...Let's remember to PRAISE & WORSHIP the most high GOD! 

There is a joy in expecting GOD to do something through US that has never been done before...

There is a joy in expecting GOD to move through US...

There is a joy in expecting GOD to take US to another level in HIM...

There is a joy in expecting GOD to launch US to places we'd never imagine...

I'm Expecting....Oh Yesssss, How about you?

HIDING PLACE...

Nahum 1:7

“God is good, a hiding place in tough times.  He recognizes and welcomes anyone looking for help,

No matter how desperate the trouble.” (The Message)

Life, has a lot going on...there are ups and downs, happy times and sad times, exciting moments and quiet moments! Life is just Life. We can not change the plan God has for our life. We can not change what God has and will allow us to go through. We can not change who and what God has said we shall be...We have to take our portion that God has given to us and Live LIFE to the fullest on GOD's agenda. We have to be sure that whatever we do that we find our hiding place in GOD. 

The scripture above says "God is good, a hiding place in tough times." WOW, its awesome to know that in our tough times "GOD is good".   The best part though is that He is our hiding place...our place of PEACE, where we can be renewed and restored!  So, if in our tough time He is our hiding place...He is yet still our hiding place in GOOD times as well.  Hmmmm, so in good/bad/ugly/cute times - He is our HIDING PLACE!

God is waiting on US to seek/ask for His help...We are never alone - for GOD is always there!

Be Encouraged!

HAPPY

“The minute I said, "I'm slipping, I'm falling," your love, God, took hold and held me fast.  When I was upset and beside myself, you calmed me down and cheered me up..” - Psalm 94:18-19*

"I'm happy from the inside out, and from the outside in, I'm firmly formed.

You canceled my ticket to hell— that's not my destination!" - Psalm 16:9-10*

"I live and breathe God; if things aren't going well, hear this and be happy:" - Psalm 34:2*

The choice is yours my friend...
The Ball is in your court now...
Only you can decide...
It's up to you...

A few weeks ago, I made the statement that regardless of what's going in my LIFE. I choose to be Happy! I am not about sweating the things that I have no control over!  God has designed a GREAT plan for my life. Thing is I been waiting for the GREATNESS to happen...but to be honest I had to want the GREATNESS! So my way of thinking has changed. I have decided to choose to be HAPPY with every thing...RAIN, SNOW, SLEET, HAIL, SUNNY or CLOUDY! I am going to be HAPPY!!!! UP, DOWN, SICK, HEALTHY, BROKE, RICH...ETC!!!  I choose to smile more and frown less. 

WOW, and guess what?  I have been having some of the BEST days of my entire life just because I changed my outlook on the GREATNESS/HAPPINESS that GOD has for me! I don't have to wait to be GREAT...shoot GOD already put that in ME!!!! #BOOM BAM POW!

So, I encourage you to LET GO, FORGIVE, BREATHE and BE HAPPY! repeat until you are HAPPY inside and out! SMILE...like the CAMERA's are recording you...YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS smile my friend!

(i'm smiling right now)

Love you and I declare that you shall be HAPPY from this day forward!

WAITING

Psalm 27:13-14 (KJV)

13I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

14Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

It seems, every where we go we have to wait. We wait in line, at the gas pump, at the bank, at the salon and at the doctors office...etc! Most of the time while waiting at these places we seem to become frustrated and inpatient.  This world has become so fast-paced that we don't want to wait for anything...or anyone!

While when we are waiting on the Lord things are totally different! This waiting is not one that makes us inpatient...this waiting does not leave us frustrated! Waiting on the Lord, brings a PEACE of MIND. Waiting on the Lord bring JOY unSPEAKABLE. Waiting on the Lord brings us to our PLACE of FREEDOM! While we are in our WAITING...the best thing to do is to Praise our God! the best thing to do is to find ourselves busy working in the KINGdom of God! Realizing that when we Praise our God...he begins to move on our behalf in ways that we could never imagine.

The scripture above reminds us to WAIT ON THE LORD! Even in this waiting process the good thing to know is GOD is strengthening US...that means he is going to give me what i need to handle what i been WAITING for! YES YES YES...he is an AMAZING GOD!

I'm WAITING...now how about that???





I STILL BELIEVE

Every day things happen, that change the course of our daily routine. People change, Jobs change, Money change, your health changes. However, GOD is still the same GOD - all powerful and all knowing! I still believe that very thing that God has promised me! I can not be side tracked by my current life circumstances. I can not be side tracked by what people say about me or to me. I have to keep my FOCUS on the one that made the PROMISE to me.

I still believe that my whole family shall be SAVED!
I still believe that my body shall be HEALED!
I still believe that my life shall GLORIFY GOD!
I still believe that I shall LIVE and not DIE!
I still believe that I am who GOD says I AM!
I still believe that I am ABOVE and not BENEATH!
I still believe that GOD loves me UNCONDITIONALLY!

My friend whatever God has said to you....Do you still BELIEVE?

Think back on every promised made...even the ones that have already come to past and Thank HIM for what is to come....I STILL BELIEVE!

Love Ya!

Bless the Lord...

Psalm 145



1I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
2Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
3Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

Bless the Lord, O my soul...and all that is within me...Bless his HOLY Name.

As long as the Lord breaths his breathe into me...I shall Praise his Holy name.
I have come to realize that...

It does not matter if I feel good or if i feel bad...The Lord is worthy to be praised
It does not matter if I am rich or if I am poor...The Lord is worthy to be praised
It does not matter if I have friends or if I have none....The Lord is worthy to be praised
It does not matter if I am sick or if I am well...The Lord is worthy to be praised

When we praise it moves God...Praise places us right in his face! As the saying goes - "When praises go UP the blessing come DOWN" 

I feel a Praise Break right now...God is working on my behalf!

SHALL WE PRAISE THE LORD!

Good, Good, Good

I am reminded of a Great song, and I share a portion of it with you today.
"For my Good" by LaShun Pace

Things I've gone through in life, I thought was too hard for me to bear

The enemy tried sometime to make me feel just like God did not care

But I remember reading in God's Word where He said He wouldn't put more on me than I could bear. Yes, Jesus cares and all that I've endured was only for my good.

Now I know it was for my good, but for His Glory

For my good, yes it was,but His Glory

For my good, all that I've endured, but God gets the Glory.

In all that we have to endure there is a Purpose and God's Plan is what is best for Us.  While working tonight, I experienced a Family dealing with letting go(death)  - - while talking with a family member they told me many Great stories of the life that has been lived by the one crossing over.  I had a chance to share with them that Life has been lived! Enjoyed! and prayed that they accept what God is allowing...

I said that to say this, God has granted us...space...His Space! We are not here to stay, but the best thing we can do is LIVE life to the fullest.  LIVE a life that GOD will get all His GLORY!  We don't always understand, but God never asked us to!  He did tell us to TRUST him with all our HEART...

So, when we really fall back and look at the whole picture...because we TRUST GOD -

its all GOOD GOOD GOOD!

God knows ME!

Job 23:10-11 (The Message)


 "But he knows where I am and what I've done.
He can cross-examine me all he wants, and I'll pass the test with honors.

I've followed him closely, my feet in his footprints, not once swerving from his way.

I've obeyed every word he's spoken, and not just obeyed his advice—I've treasured it."


WOW, God knows ~ that's it and That's ALL.  It's time now that we make sure we know Him. Too many times people get caught up issues/problems that have nothing to do with them personally because they want to be NOISY! But I am so glad, God is the only one that can cross-examine me! He is the only one that can Judge me! We are not perfect, YET we are striving for PERFECTION! The closer we get to God, the better off we shall be. Come on, move closer to HIM! Closer, Closer, Closer!

So glad that in spite of God knowing all about us and all our faults! He has still decided to use US to advance the KINGDOM of GOD! So let's TREASURE what He has given to US and Enjoy the RIDE!
Are you coming along?

I Love my neighbor! What about u?

Matt. 22:37-39
 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

 38This is the first and great commandment.

 39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

This morning I am in Love with my neighbors. I have been blessed and surrounded with lovely neighbors that Love me and I Love them so much. Thank God for the divine connection. It's awesome you can enjoy one another without no other motives involved. Just pure Love. Today is another day full of LOVE!

So Love on somebody! Smile at somebody! Hug somebody! What you do comes back to you ALL the time!

I Love my neighbors....as myself! Kiss Kiss until next time!

COMPLETE in HIM!

1 John 4:11-12 (New International Version, ©2010)


11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

So glad to know that I am a friend of God. So glad to know that I am Loved by HIM. So glad to know that the same LOVE He has for me I can have for another. Love is what makes the world go round. When the Love stops...we may as well stop living! Without LOVE we can not can not enjoy what God has given unto US.

Thing is we have to LOVE unconditionally just like GOD.  Yeah Yeah Yeah - i hear you! some people make it hard to Love them...but at the end of the Day - God is looking at how We Love as he has commanded us to in his Word. And when We LOVE as God has commanded....WE ARE COMPLETE! Complete in HIM! Ohhhhhh YESSSS

PES LOVES YOU!

Enjoy You

Sometimes it's just good to be Good to yourself! I had the pleasure today of getting out and enjoying time alone. I am enjoying the night lights and having a great time seeing all kinds of things.

I was just thinking how very important it is to know who you are. Now don't get me wrong it's good to be in the company of others that support and enhance who you are. But when you can smile and laugh alone --- whewwwww! What a time you will have.

Taking a deep breath and regrouping....thinking about a lot and deciding how I will execute them!

Enjoy you --- God only created one of you! Do the Best job you can at being you!

Until next time....ENJOY!

Hold On!

God will do just what HE said! HOLD on! BELIEVE God! TRUST God!



Just know that when you TRUST him he will use you to make the impossible happen! To many times we give up right at the place where GOD is about to turn things around in our life.

BELIEVE God and know that he has awesome things in store for you! He chose you for this time....so Hold on! Believe God! Trust God!

Isaiah 43:10
Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

God is in control...Believe that!

Have a GREAT day!

Grateful

"Gratefulness is flowing from this HEART" When you take the time to truly think about how good God has been...We can help but to be Grateful.  There are so many people that may be worst off or may be better off but at the end of the day, your ALIVE and Breathing...Whew, Thank God for His loving kindness and tender mercies!

Every morning God gives us new mercies. He gives us another chance at this thing called LIFE! He gives us another chance to LOVE...GOD is LOVE!  so instead of looking at what you don't have or instead of complaining....just be GRATEFUL!

at this very moment, I have placed about 10 patients in beds, that can not and will not be able to care for themselves. They have to depend on someone else to care for them. and i think, WOW we have full use of our hands, feet, limbs, minds, eyes....etc! yet still we dont tell God Thank You....Lets change our atomsphere right now - - - and tell the Lord THANK YOU!

I am Grateful! Are U???

Feel his Presence

2 Corinthians 3:17 - Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

There is no place that I would rather be, than in the very Presence of the most high God. I have come to realize that in His Presence things happen, situations change, Miracles are seen and felt. I sometimes wonder, if we could just push a little more into God! We would see a mighty move of His Glory! Liberty also means Freedom, and when you are Free it's a wonderful feeling...like walking on air, with no cares. I believe that's how God wants us to be...Free....of every worry, Free of every issue, Free of everything that would try to hinder us from Moving forward in God. So I dare you to get in His presence, all the way in! And feel His Glory surround you and in His Glory, He shall release Freedom to you! Let's go to our place of worship NOW!

VICTORY...

I got my Victory today! Bishop Dawson preached from Acts 28:1-8. Whew what a mighty God we serve. the word of God just met us TODAY.....

Shine on Me

Lord let you light shine so bright....that people can only see you through me! Use me to bring people to you and to help em understand who you are. I Love you Lord and I Love your people and what you have assigned to my hands. Shine on Me!
