The Reflection of Neediness: Upside Down

 



In 2015 my life turned Upside Down.  I thought I was on my way to the brightest chapter of my life only to find myself slowly stepping back into time.  I couldn't blame anyone even if I wanted to for the direction my life had taken.  Every piece of my present life was my doing or undoing.  The good and the bad were my manifestations.  The unfortunate part of it all is I forgot to thank God for where I was then until I got to where I am now.  Gratitude shifts mountains.

Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
                                                                                        1 Thessalonians 5:16-18


Gratitude for the "now" brings a brighter tomorrow for sure - so I've learned very very well.

The night my mother died I was so tired for her I literally almost  thanked God for letting her sleep. She had suffered enough, not just during her bout with cancer but during her life.  Surely mom had many good days, even some great days but never, in my opinion, had her heart truly smiled.  Therefore, I spent most of my life trying to give her heart something to smile about even up to the night she took her last breath.  I realized after her death, only God has that kind of power.  Nevertheless, I tried up til the night she took her last breath.  I love you mommy.

Writing this book was a true revelation from God.  It all came to me while watching a movie I vowed never to watch.  I will not mention the title cause I am pretty certain if it touched you like it touched me, you'll know exactly what the movie is.  Any who, God spoke to me through this movie.  Yes indeed!  

How amazing.

In the Beginning

Along with many other organizations and establishments, the first edition of Today's Lady Chaplain, is paying homage to all those extraordinary women who served their communities in the role as "chaplain". During the last 40 years, female chaplains have overcome differences in their pursuit of equality. Therefore, it gives me great honor to accept my call and join the ranks alongside these wonderful spirit filled women ... and men. July 19, 2019 I officially began walking in my call as chaplain. Although the map of who, what, when, where, and how has not been made quite clear to me at this time, I do know that my "why" is truly quite clear. I am a firm believer though, that if I take one step, God will definitely take two. So, in the words of Eddie Kendricks of the Mighty Temptations, I am going to keep on truckin' baby. I'm truly excited to see where this chapter of my life will lead. Oh what fabulousness awaits! W

Abundance Prayer - The Prayer of Daniel

Hear oh God my prayers, Look in favor at my pain. Hear and act.  Don't delay for I bear your name. Today when you get an opportunity, turn your attention to a prayer of Daniel - a hero of the Old Testament. If your life was severely disrupted when you were a child, you can sympathize with Daniel.  His young life turned lousy when he was taken into captivity by the Babylonians and dragged away from his homeland. Although he was a captive, through his faithfulness to God, he rose to become the highest-level government official.  Daniel had such a great reputation that he remained in power even when his captors were defeated and the government changed.  Daniel never forgot about wanting to go home. He ultimate manifested (with God) everything he believed God for. The Prophecy Read Daniel 9:1-2 . Let's figure a minute here. If Daniel was taken captive by the Babylonians and he is looking at a 70 year prophecy, about how old is he? (Our lesso

Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone ; I will make him an help meet for him. Really and truly I could stop writing here because if you'd just take a moment to ponder on every word I stated and let it all sink in, I truly think you would be thoroughly convinced that having someone to love and to love you is a given.  That person has already been given!  All we have to do is accept it.  If your desire is to have that special someone then so it is.  God gave us the abilit
