And the award goes to...

I have been stopped at so many places (restaurants, stores, post office, church and now the mail box) and asked what I was wearing.

Well now the secret is out.

I wear: FANTASY By BRITNEY SPEARS

Yes, Ladies, I wear and LOVE this!!!

I started wearing this when it came out and haven't stopped. I will go out of my way to try and find it. I used to save the bottles, I know it's a little weird, but I had gone through almost 20 bottles in a year and a half. Yes, that is crazy but I don't feel complete in my day with out a half dozen sprays. :)

So if you are looking for something new to wear then you need really need to check this out. You will not regret it.

BTW have I said this yet: I LOVE THIS PERFUME!! hahaha

Enjoy!

Can't believe...

I have been such a slacker on my blog these past few month. I have been just sooo busy.
Here is the run down for the past couple months.

January: Not really much happened. My eyes were opened to things that I needed to know about. 'Nuff said on that.

February: I walked away from my job to pursue my Children's line of clothing and my writing. God said it was time and the opportunity showed it's self and so I obeyed. I can't say that it has been easy but God has provided BIG time. gGp!!!

March: I turned 32! And I started working part time doing something I love! Admin and music. AND I have been just keeping busy!!!

Now onto April: Well this month has come and gone. I have been crazy busy just trying to keep it all together! Easter came up on us in a flash. Along with that came the Women's Conference at church. PLUS the LIVE VICKI YOHE recording of her new album "Somebody Worship" (which I was in the choir for). It was an amazing and powerful experience. GOD IS AWESOME!!! I will post when the cd is released. Y'all must go and get it!! And I got to meet some incredible people. (AY haha)

Okay that is enough about me!! Happy Reading!

But GOD....

For every night, there is day.
For every frown, there is a smile.
For every valley, there is a hill.
For every prayer, there is an answer!

Is there no end to your bad night?
Are you thinking that your frown will never be turned upside down?
Is your valley to big to get out of?
Are you still waiting on your prayer to be answered?

What have you done to change this?

There is only one solution:
TRUST IN THE LORD!
Put your trust in the One who created the heavens and the earth; the One who knows every hair on your head; the One who calls you His own; the One who will never leave you nor forsake you; the One who gave His life up so that you might live; the One we cry out to morning, noon and night; THE ONE.

The word Trust shows up in Psalms 60 times. Why is that? Because it is that important!

According to the dictionary Trust means:
1a : assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something
1b : one in which confidence is placed

2 : dependence on something future or contingent : hope

3a (1) : a charge or duty imposed in faith or confidence or as a condition of some relationship
(2) : something committed or entrusted to one to be used or cared for in the interest of another


I ask that you really consider placing your trust in something that will NOT FAIL you. Money will fail you, people will fail you, things will fail you BUT GOD won't fail you.
When things start getting rough just remember....BUT GOD!
"Money is tight...BUT GOD can do all things!"
"Joe left...BUT GOD will never leave you"
BUT GOD!!


Proverbs 3:4-6
Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,and he will make your paths straight.
Psalm 91:2
I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
Psalm 20:7
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
1 Chronicles 5:20b
He answered their prayers, because they trusted in him.

The Jonah syndrome

"You pry from my fingers everything that I hold dear,

just to make me yours, just to draw me near.

I don't want to let go. It's my comfort that I seek.

All that I know is God you want all of me". EDW

Are you holding onto things that God wants to take from you for your own good?

Will you let go?

Or will you be another Jonah??

It took Jonah being on a boat and being thrown over to realize that what God wanted from him he had to give. Jonah had to go to the people that had ridiculed HIS people for generations. It was a sacrifice for him. All God wanted was his obedience.

In the belly of the fish Jonah finally gives up and decides to do what God has called him to do.

"But I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving. That which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is from the Lord". Jonah 2:9

Are you a Jonah?

Take a moment and think about it. Then spend time reflecting on what God is doing in your life.
