Good MOrning

Good Morning Lord. Thank you for your blessings. You have waken me up today and given me life one more day. Lord  I thank you for loving me so much. I love you.When I open my lips I want to rejoice in the Lord always. I commit myself to being  a good teacher. A Godly Teacher, someone who undergirds the children with truth, faith and love. I will not judge or criticize, but speak excellent and princely things concerning them. I will open my lips and positive, uplifting things will come out of it today. Its a half a day today for the students. The staff is invited to lunch at Old Country Buffett. My father calls that place, feeding at the trough. Lots of food, just not that good. Its a free lunch and good incentive to come to school. . I will be leaving today at exactly 2:45. I want to come home get a little rest and get out by 5pm so I am there when the doors open. That's my goal anyway. Thank you for bring such good, talented, people to our church. You are a man who wants to uplift and educate his people. Thank you Lord for a minister of the word who is qualified and annointed. I hope your day goes well today. I hope all things work in harmony and your concerns and interests are met with immediate answers. Have a wonderfully blessed day today. I love you.

Good Morning

Good Morning Father God. Thank you for giving me the breathe that I breath and the air that I fill my lungs to that that breath. My cup runneth over today. Lord, I am your child and you said if I prayed to you in secret you would reward me openly. My desire is to walk in love but I am constantly sabotaging my own efforts and failing in my relationship. I know that without faith it is impossible to please God. My desire is to come closer to you, I believe that you are a rewarder to those who earnestly seek you. Show me to me. Show me my brokenness.Expose ist. Make all things visible. Father forgive me for I cannot change my self but I am willing to change and walk in the wisdom that comes from heaven. Father God I know that words are powerful and I know that there is power of life and death in the tongue. Forgive me for cursing and speaking badly of anything. Lord I want to speak blessings. Lord I am only human and I strive to keep this flesh in check. My heart overflows with a good nature and I want to do good. I want to communicate with a very special person. I want to improve my communication skills so that I am able to push through the discomfort and know that God will work with us, leading us out of our own self-developed defense mechanisms and into a place of victory. That's where I want to be Lord, and I believe we are able to do just that. Improve my communication skills.

Hi cutie, have a blessedly wonderful day today. I dreamed I was preparing breakfast for you in a sexy negligee, will that dream come true?

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Thank you for your blessings today. Thank you for waking me up and starting me on my way. I embrace your spirit in my life. Your presence is important to me. I will not go without you Lord. Thank you so much for the treasures that you give me in my life. I come before you with an attitude of gratitude. What ever happens in my life I will trust in the Lord to guide me and direct me. I am not perfect but I will continue to strive towards God and away from the devil.

good mOrning to you too. I am of course running late. I will have a chance to work on the computer this evening. I get to come home after after school. We are preparing to study flight and I was happy to see the book at the museum about the Tuskgee Airman who went to Mexico. I bought the book and I hope it will accompany my lesson plan. When my children go to D.C. they will see the actual Wilbur and Orville plane. We also will watch the movie here. That was a wonderful exhibit. Thank you again for bringing such rich culture and knowledge in our lives. We are lead by a man who wants us to learn, live and act. You are a true blessing to us. I thank God everyday for allowing me to be a part of your life in whatever manner that I am. Have a blessed day today and I will look forward to seeing you on Friday.

God Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for today. Today is such a wonderful blessing. Thank you Lord for giving me the opportunity to love you. Loving you means sticking through the good times and the bad times. Staying in it no matter what. Stick to it for God's sake.But remember to be joyful and loving. Count it all as joy. I'm just happy to be here to count anything. Lord I have joy in my heart because I am believing you for a miracle. I'm not receiving the report of the devil and his demons. I see nothing but good things happening to us. There may be some darkness but I will continue to count it all as goodness. God loves me and I love him. The obstacles we face are minor compared to some. This too shall pass.

Good Morning Sweetheart. You have a busy day ahead of you. My cup runneth over when I think about the goodness of God. I know that there's more to life than this for me. I also know that if this is the extent of it then I can be happy with that too. I just try to keep an attitude of gratitude. If it had not been for the Lord on my side....where would I be today. I'm running late, computer problems that havent been completely fixed, but I just grateful to have a computer at all.

Be blessed today and have a wonderful day. I will continue to I Love You.

Dreams

Dreams don't always come true. If they did I'd have won the lottery a million times over and I don't even play it anymore.

You know I just couldnt let that go with out a comment. You probably wont get married because you would never be home and your wife would leave you. Very interesting correlation. I see it as your wife needing to be with you while you are traveling so that you two are spending more time together. Maybe she's a little needy on the attention but if you are at least in the same city there's a good chance you will spend some time together. The reality is that we just don't know and the fear of you leaving me is just as prevalent. I can't even imagine how we can get past any hurdles. I know its possible though. All things are possible. First its velcro wedding dresses, now its I'll never get married. One step forward, two steps backward. What a dance we do together. God only knows where this is leading. I truly believe there is purpose in this relationship. Have a good night, I believe in us whatever the outcome may be.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. I stay hopeful and faithful . I  thank you for todya. I am renewed and refreshed inb the Lord. I have learned to praise you inspite of all my mess. I have learned that you are the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost. My most important weapon is praise Lord. I will not be the victim of satan and his two legged demons. I will fight for the good fight of faith. My healing comes with the reassurrance that what God says will come to pass. Any habits, doubt, negative thinking will not be a part of my daily routine. I will fight for deliverance. I am not giving in or giving up. All things are possible...with God. I will walk by faith and not by sight. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. I am the child of the living God. Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only! I worship and serve only the Lord, My God. The Father, The Son and The Hopy Ghost. I have to renew my faith daily. Hourly and keep the faith continually. He is worthy to be praised.

Good Morning to you tooo.

Its the beginning of a new week. I missed you yesterday. You must have been at the fire engine. Good things are in store for  us. When I thnik positive about us I feel good about it. Keep  a  positive attitude, keep the faith and we will be successful. Have a blessed day today and be a blessing to someone special. If you are traveling today, traveling mercies for you and everyone involved with you. Have a safe day. You are loved very much. And you're cute too.

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for all of your blessings this day. Thank you for a restful night sleep. My travels yesterday went very weel Lord. Thank you for your protection. Thank yo for giving me the mind and body to have endurance and patience for the things I have to do. Father God, I thank you for Christ, thank you for the body of Christ. Through the body of Christ we are invigorated and strengthened. Had you not sent him we would not be closer to you. Thank you for you r blessings Lord.

Good Morning to you too. How are you doing today. I keep having this dream (twice now). I have volunteered to work in the rectory garden during the summer and you are coming in from somewhere,  while I am on my hands and knees in the garden, you don't see me. You are talking to someone and asked them if I was there that day. They say they didnt know and you say something hurtful about me. I dont even know what you said but I sat up and then just left. Its weird. I want to stop having it thats why Im telling you about it. Disclosure is important to healing. I couldnt even tell you what you said. Why didnt I just say something right then? I dont know. But I dont want to have that dream again tonight.

I pray that today is a good day. I look forward to being in the house of the Lord. Im also going out to eat afterwards so thats always nice. Have a blessed day today and be a blessing to someone very special today.

Good News

I had been dreading the call to Dell but I finally made it today. Good News. Its not a board failure. Its another stupid virus. I am really upset about a virus since I have all this virus protection and I still keep getting viruses. I purchased a one year support warranty. My system is not as old as I thought it was. It was delivered in January of 2003. Its only three years old. I paid 240.19 for the opportunity to have four serious support help and constant questions and answers. Lets see if this will elivate some of my computers woes. Its just a big problem. I had been prepared to hear something worse and it was good news. So I am repairing the operating system. This is going to take about an hour and a half. They will call me back to finish installing the drivers. The problem with viruses is that you lose the stuff you had on there before the virus. I have to begin saving more on disk, because I lose my lesson plans, my grade book, my stuff. But for all of my complaints I will have my computer back and its not as bad as I thought it would be. Hallelujuh (misspelled badly!) Thank you Jesus for not making it as bad as it could have been. Glory, Glory, Glory.

Now I have to get ready so I can get my license. Have a blessed day.

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for such a beautiful day. My heart's desire is to please you Lord. Remember me and your promises to me. Thank you for waking me up today Lord. I continue to seek you r will in my life everyday.

Hi Honey!

I know I'm late but at least I am here. After today the computer will be gone. I'm driving her back to Urbana today. I have to first get my license. It expired yesterday. I had fun yesterday. When I walked in the room at school the children broke out singing happy birthday to you . It was nice, they are too loud. I left school and went to the ERC for the mentoring program orientation. That Dan Ryan is just a mess. I am going to start using my alternative route now so I won't forget and get caught up in some mess.I got home and we went out to dinner. Forty five minute wait. Can't do reservations. Food was OK. I had to send my steak back twice. Server had a good attitude. Food was hot when it came. The servers sang happy birthday to me too. My other daughter had to work but she joined us when she got off of work. All in all it was a good day.

Sometimes I wear eye makeup and sometimes I don't I never wear false eyelashes, that's just a little too much work for me. My extent of makeup is monday thru saturday, foundation and lip cover. On Sunday, I do my eyes and brow. MASCARA, PENCIL AND CONCEALER. Just wanted to get that out.

We took a picture on Thurs to publish in the Black Congratulatory Souviner Book. We took a full page ad out to congratulate my girl. Its me, my mom and my baby on the picture. I have my hand on my stomach. I wanted to take another one but we had to get it in by friday. Oh well, I'll live with my had being over my stomach.

I know that tomorrow I wont be able to talk to you in the morning. I pray that you know you will be thought about. You are very special to me and I want to make sure you remember that tomorrow morning as well. Tomorrow some church folks are taking me out to dinner at Pearl's, you're invited too.

One thing that has been on my mind all week is "You say you love me and you won't even talk to me." Are we improving on that at all? Does God hear my cries? Are we working together? Can we work it out?

Today is a busy day for me so I will end now and pray for safe travels throughout my day for you and me. Pray for a sound mind to make clear decisions. Pray for the answers to my problems to become crystal clear. I pray that you have success today in every endeavour. With much love and peace. Be blessed and be a real blessing to someone to day. I love you.

Good Morning

Good Morning My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Good Morning Father God and Good Morning My Love.

Yes today is a day to be very thankful and joyful. I am rejoicing that the Lord has seen fit to give me one more day. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Today is the day that the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. Today is my birthday!!! I am celebrating the fact that 48 years ago the Lord said this one can breathe, and I have been doing that ever since. Sometimes it was rough but sometimes it was fun. Thank you Father God for your blessings. Thank You for giving me life. Thank you to all the people who have affected me throughout my life and allowed me to mature into the woman that I am today. Today I am just grateful for being alive. I don't like to make a big deal out of my birthday, I usually won't tell anyone and just go about my business as usual. But today my family wants to take me out. I'm excited about that. Dinner at Red Lobster, one of our favorites. Today I will just relax and enjoy the day. Its Friday. I pray that you have a blessed day today and be a blessing to someone special today. Today will be a good day.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Thank you for today. I am happy to be able to get up this morning , even though I still have sinus problems and I am not in the best of health, but I can still praise you Lord. You are worthy to be praised. Lord I pray to abide in your word. You are the vine and I am the branch living in you. With you my world is awesome. No matter what it may look like in the physical. Without you I am lost, no matter what it may look like in the physical either. Without you Lord I do not want to go. I strive to live in you Lord, united with you and continuing to have you in my heart. You loved me before I loved myself. You assure me that if I keep walking towards you, you'll keep loving me and walking with me. You will never leave me nor forsake me. If I keep your commandments and do this joyfully , I will be able to delight in the full measure of your love, joy and overflowing abundance. I just plan to keep on seeking you Lord, and striving for a closer relationship.

Good Morning to you sweetie. How's your week been? Isn't life wonderful! Sometimes when you think the worst is about to happen, something good happens. Nothing really good has happened yet but I feel it about to happen. Attitude is everything. I'm expecting something good to happen.

I'm running late, I'm happy to have this laptop to enter a message this morning. I guess I'll have to call Dell tonight. This is the first time I will talk to them about my problem. I'm praying for good news, but I am also praying for the truth. Let it be a knowledgable person on the other end. Be blessed today honey, and try to be a blessing to someone.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Glory to your name Lord because you are worthy to be praised. Thank you for all of your blessings. Thank you for loving me and making a wayout of no way. My soul longs to please you Lord,

Morningto you too. Do nt get too excited. Im using my daughter's laptop. I picxked her up Monday night from union station. She's on spring break this week. I am just doing whatever I can to keep going on. I'm just standing firm. I know that all things work together for good for them that love the Lord and will rely on the Lord, and will have faith in the Lord.Praise is my weapon and I will continually praise the Lord. My day is full. Testing at school, new teachers network meeting in the afternoon, and the meeting at church. Three straight days of late night is exhausting me. I look forward to Thursday already. Thurs I still have after school. Friday is the day. No afer school or anything.

Well the best thing is I get to tell you I love you. Treasure the moments when I can do that. Be blessed and have a wonderful day beating down the devil.

Good Morning

Good Morning. Thank You Lord for giving me options. Thank you Lord for waking me up this morning and allowing me to dress myself, to fix my lunch and to get out of the house to vote. Not only did I vote this morning but I also got to work on time. Is that not an awesome God or what. Glory to your name Father God.

This morning on my ride in I listened to your sermon on Unity Sunday for February. When in exile, sometimes you cant say the words but your heart has a song. Your mind cant come up with the right thing to say. You know you are going through some very bad times, you want to be encouraged but sometimes you are just sitting on the side of the road, under a broom tree wondering why me. You probably didnt say that but some of that is what I took from it today. Be blessed. Gotta go.

Good Afternoon

Finally!!

Well, my home computer is acting up again. I tried to use it Saturday afternoon and it wouldnt get off of the windows screen. I continued to restart and do all kinds of stuff to no avail. On Sunday I asked someone at church who knows about computers what might be wrond. I was told the message I had "board failure" could mean that the logic board or mother board has crashed. I just don't want to believe that. The computer is only four years old. My father bought it for me for Christmas. I know it came from the factory I put the order in myself. This is just crazy. Its a Dell, which is suppose to be a good brand. Of course my service warranty expired last year so I have to pay 100 dollars to talk to them about the problem. I wish it would clear up like it did the last time it had a virus. I was told this isnt a virus. It could have been some dust, climate change or just any or stupid dumb thing that computers do when they just stop working. But I'm not calling my computer stupid or dumb, I love my computer and I want it to work for me. Its a very good computer. Anyway, that extra expense is not budgeted until later this week. Know telling what they will tell me is the real problem. The guy at church said if it said board failure I would have to get a new computer! That's just ridiculous! This computer isn't even that old. I think it can be repaired and I plan to do just that. Even if its a few hundred, I will sacrafice for that, but a new computer, OH NO.

I wondered how youwould handle not having a message. I just kept praying all Sunday morning, Lord let him know I'm not mad or having an attitude about anything. Lord let him know that I love him. I'm sorry I had to leave early but I had my brother's car and I wanted to make sure I got it back on time. I knew if I was at church early I could see you sooner. I miss not talking to you in the morning. I do look forward to knowing that you will have a message from me every morning. I have to hurry and get that computer fixed. Of course I get to talk to you at school, which is where I am now. I just don't believe how many problems I have with my computer. Its like once this became a true link for us, we couldn't get a break. If it wasnt a virus, then the network was down, now board failure. This is crazy. My computer should not be having this kind of problem. I know computers older than my computer and they dont have board failure. Ok well enough, I have to get ready for class tonight.Be blessed and know that I love you.

Good MOrning

Good Morning Lrod. Thank you for waking me up today, even if I do have the flu/cold. It has not changed the fact that you are worthy to be praised. I will praise you in the morning, noon and evening. I praise your holy name God. You are worthy to be praised. Thank you for letting me know that sometimes my body needs to heal and rest. Sometimes I need to reflect on my health to stay healthy. Sometimes I need to slow dow and just rest. Thank you Lord for getting my attention. This is not something that will bring me away from you. I love you Lord and I don't say you want me to be sick or anything like that. I need to take better care of myself and also know that no matter what you do when you are around hundreds of children everyday you are bound to get some of the colds, sniffles and general stuff that htey constantly have. Lord I love you and I wouldnt miss an opportunity to spend more time with you. Today, I rest and recouperate. Tomorrow I will be great. I can't miss next week, we are testing.

Good Morning to you too. I saw your picture yesterday. One of my students brought in a flyer for one of the alderman candidates and as she was showing me our school and some of the students with one of the girls from destiny's child, there you were in a picture with some other folks on that side of town. I shouted Oh look, they didnt know who you were. I didnt tell them anything else. I dont want to be worshipping one day and there one of them is, talking bout "HI". Leave me alone. I won't tell them where I worship. Not because I'm ashamed of it or myself but because I just dont want them bothering me. They want to know where I shop at, where I live, what do I do for fun. I tell them some things and some things I keep to myself. My worship is not for them. I'm probably mad at them right now because one of them aor most of them probably gave me this cold. Yesterday, I forgot the cap and gown fitting was happening, I set up the date, and I am in charge of the graduation stuff, they probably dumped that on me because I was new. One teacher has the trip, one has the luncheon, and I have the ceremony and all that is attached to it. The man came, I was not expecting him so I was upset, I was not feeling good as it is, up and down the three flights of stairs about six times to get the three classes down for fitting. I was exhausted. The good thing is Friday is educational game day in my class. We play synonmyms bingo, outburst jr., trival pursuit, etc. This is one way to increase vocabulary and common knowledge. It also gives them sportmanship skills. Most of them never play board games of any type. Anyway it was not instruction, instruction, instruction. When school was over I came home, took some nyquil and went to bed. I didnt get up again until 3am. I have vitamin c, vitamin b, vapor rub, tea, kleenex, chicken noodle soup and a big comfy pillow and blanket. Thats pretty much the items I will need for today. Have a blessed day and I wll see you tomorrow. I might be back later. Remember God can do wonders with our heart if we give him all the pieces to work with.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Today is a blessing from you. Thank you for today. Lord I have nothing but the utmost respect for you. I know this is just my flesh and I will not succumb to that. My sinuses are not at their best today, I'm tired from waking a little too early and not being able to go back to sleep but I will continue on with my day. I look forward to today, I'm energized aobut today, I'm happy that I have today to do something good for you Lord.

Good morning to you too, dear. I left my glasses in the car so I can't read much this morning but I can still praise the Lord. I don't think I'll be at the concert tonight. My heart will be praying for the success of the event. I did make a contribution and purchase a ticket though.I'm hoping to feel better as the day goes on . I know I'll have a chance to see you and that's something to treasure. Let me see how I feel at the end of the day. I may go home and take a nap or something and then come back out. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone today.

Thursday, March 16, 2006

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for your saving grace and tender mercy. Thank you for waking me today. Thank you for allowing me to have another chance to get it right. You love me Lord. You love me. That alone keeps me going another day, to know that you love me with all my mistakes.Thank you Lord for your blessings. Father God you have been my rock, never changing, never faltering, never leaving, you have been with me through it all.

Good Morning sweetheart. Did you have a good night's slee? How are you feeling today? We didnt get any snow last night. I was expecting an ugly commute this morning. Maybe it will come this afternoon. Well I will have to get ready now. We have a pep rally for the ISAT testing which begins next week. Blessings to you today. Be a true blessing to someone else today. Much Love and Affection to you.

Wednesday, March 15, 2006

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord.Thank you for your blessings. I am here another day to do your will and work on your commands.  Lord, I know that my mind is filled with many things. I wonder what to do. I cant comment on certain things right now, I'm just not sure what's going on so I leave that up to you. I don't understand everything but I do know that I have to trust you. Trust is always an issue. I trust you Lord. not just say it but mean it. As I sit here Lord, my mind troubled, I wondered what to say. It was quiet and then I heard the birds sing. I wondered why do the birds sing. Early in the morning the birds are singing. Its cold out there today, but the birds are singing. But when I heard them sing, it lifted my spirits. They don't have any of the worries and concerns of my life, but yet they sing. Their life is more precarious and dangerous than mine, but yet they sing. Hearing their voices can lift me out of my self pity wondering what's going to happen to me and my problems. Maybe thats why they sing. To give someone the smallest of lifts to just push them to say "OK, I can make it through whatever, one more day, there are solutions to your problems and if its not resolved today, It can be solved in the future, believe it and receive it."

Hi

My home computer is having problems again. I wrote and entry and it didn't post. I don't know what's going on with that.

I was very happy to be in the baptism class. I'm glad I finally decided to do it. I had thought about it last year, that's when I went to the Saturday Vigil. I am glad to know that you are teaching the class, that makes it so much more special to me. I am there to solidify a relationship with God that began as an infant. I didnt choose the baptism then, my parents did, but now this is a conscious choice by me to accept the command and the will of God in my life. I look forward to this journey. I like the interactive nature where we get to ask questions and you answer them. It does keep us involved.

Well, today we had our visit from the big boss. He was in and out of my room in about a minute. He startled me. I forgot what I was saying to the children. Everything went well I guess.

Well I'm going toget ready to leave. I wanted to check to see if the entry this morning posted and it didn't. I will have to try something different. Be blessed.

Monday, March 13, 2006

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. My journal entries are not entering. Lord I will not be deterred. Virus Scans, Privacy Walls, AdWare, all of this will help to protect but the ultimate protector is you Lord.

I have tried this twice this mornng. My time is running out. I have to get ready.Have a blessed day and remember to work in love. Be truthful and honest with yourself and others. Get to the core of the matter. With much love and kindness. Have a blessed day.

Purpose

HI

You were a man on fire with a purpose today. How do these children get these guns in the first place? Where do they come from?  Why are they using them on each other and killing innocent children?

What a spirutual time we had today. Trust in the Lord with all your heart. It will get better. Hope allows me to believe that in all situations. I think I'm going to try and see if I can get into the baptism classes. I meant to sigh up and I let it slip by me. I have to sign up for the museum too. I have my ticket for Friday and for Maya Angelou.I will watch the website for further details this week. I will trust in the Lord and lean not to my own understanding.

Be blessed and know that you are loved.

Good MOrning

I know this week  might have been challenging as all weeks are. I pray that you are feeling better. I pray that the headaches are gone, alleviated, reduced.

Good MOrning

Good Morning Lord. Thank you for waking me up today. Thank you for your persistence in seeing that I still have more to do so you need me. I am so pleased to know that we are working together. My goal is to do your will. I strive to do that daily.

Good MOrning, I am tired because I woke at 2:30 and didnt get back to sleep until 5 am. I watched a really stupid movie too. I finally turned off the tv and just laid there. I am so glad this is the last Saturday. Yeah. My spiritual well is deep today. I will have to draw from the very bottom. I can do it. I can make it. Its going to be all right.

Have a blessed day today. How are you feeling today? Are you better, worse, the same? What's on the agenda today.

I have to call for the museum thing today for sure.

Be blessed and have a blessed day.Remember that you are loved very much.

Date NIght

Hi Honey

That sounds so sweet. Its nice to give you such a sweet greeting. Its so nice to be done with the week. Yes I have Saturday to work, but not all day and not eighth graders. I have 5th and 6th graders. But enough about school, this is a date.

How was your day today? I want to know about you. I want to know what makes you happy and what makes you sad. What kinds of things do you think about. What kinds of things excite you. Do you collect anything? Do you care about any hobbies or sports. I know you have a passion for your garden. What are you thinking about doing with it this year. What are your passions. Are you excited about anything. Do you look forward to anything. I just wonder what makes your day.

For me today was a good day. I have incorporated game day on Friday. This is our first official day and we have spent three days trying to just understand the sportsmanship of game playing. Today went well. I played games witht he students. Educational games but still games. These kids need to loosen up. I said nothing about work.

I am watching starz on demand. I just started Pleasantville. I like this movie because of its direct and subtle notations related to racism and relationships. Watch it if you get a chance.

I am so excited that I will be reading on Easter i just dont know what to do. I will practice and practice and practice so that I am at my best.

Im also excited about Sunday. Im planning on counting to ten when I hug you. Long enough for me to just count to ten. I can do this. Its not impossible for me. I have to call aoubt the museume thing and reserve my space.Im going to do that now.

Ok have a blessed evening and I am including my all time favorite picture. Named "An Evening For Two" That's what we have on date night. Be blessed and have a blessedly wonderful evening. Sleep well, enjoy your evening, know that I am thinking of you and wondering if you are safe and doing fine. I'm fine, I'm ok and I know that ultimately you are ok too. Love you and look forward to seeing you soon. There's a closeness that we cant deny. I wouldnt want to deny anything with you. I love you. Have a good evening, my love and be blessed.

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. You blessings, your love, your kindness, they all give me my strength. I don't know what to do with out you Lord. Lord I pray for your protection today for my family and friends. Thank you for loving us Lord. Thank you for caring.  Thank you for allowing me to have another day her on this beautiful earth.

Hi

Ok, I have been trying to get to this computer for an hour. I had an interesting day. First thing this morning I had a parent conference with the other eighth grade teachers and we found out that he was beating his mother up. I was so appalled.His mother is disabled and has a vision disability. She's almost blind. He was always polite and friendly with me. I really was surprised to hear that. We called the police on him. He was surprised that we would do that. I was just really taken aback. We were really upset with him today. After I took my class upstairs, he was suppose to come and get homework. I never saw him. When school was over, we had a half day today, no one checked to see if he had been taken home or left or anything. At 1pm the secretary noticed that he had never left the conference room. He just stayed there and slept all morning. I just don't know what to think. That just upsets me so much. His mother talks to him and tries to take care of him and his sister the best way she knows how. She is trying to keep them both because the state wants to take them due to her disability. I'm sure there is more to it than that but that's what she told us. To top it off, he is in my enrichment class. It just goes to show you that brains isn't everything. Well, I have gotten that off my chest. That was a real eye opener for me today.

Well, now I am going to end this. I hope you had a good day. I am really looking forward to this weekend. My last Saturday. Yeah!!! I know next Saturday I will not be leaving the house before noon. This Tuesday we are having the big boss visit so we are preparing for the ultimate visit.

Love is the ultimate message that  I want to leave you with. Be blessed and know that you are loved.

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for your blessing today. You have awaken me so I know I have something to do for you today. Lord I work for you today and everyday.

This is the second entry this morning. The first which was long and sweet just disappeared. Now I have to go to get ready so I can't rewrite everything. It went something like, not being prejudice against those that do things differently from myself. I want my gifts to the Lord to come up for a memorial offering. I want my actions and thoughts to have a spiritual purity where God is in my heart and my mind. There are no ulterior motives in my intentions and gifts. Walking into the light with Jesus.

You have a wonderful day today and be blessed.

Hi

I am watching the broadcast now on tape. I can't help but remember what my great grandmother used to say about people and that's never trus a man that talks out of the side of his mouth. Bishop Long talks out of the side of his mouth. It makes me suspect when I see that. I remember seeing him on tv once and he had on a body builder tee shirt and I thought that was inappropriate for a pastor. I'm going to watch the show now. I just wanted to say hello. HELLO.

Have a blessed evening and sleep well tonight.

Good MOrning

Good MOrning Lord. Thanks be to God this wonderful and beautiful morning. Thank you Lord for waking me up today. Thank you for the grace you have placed in my life. Thank you for loving me Lord. Tahnk you for your mercy. I know I didn't ahve to be here today but because I am I know that there is more for me to do today. More for me to get right in the Kingdom of God. Lord I do want to be disciplined when I ask for and receive your blessings. Thank you for your blessings. My God is an awesome God and when he blesses me it to is an awesome blessing. Thank you for allowing me to finish what I needed to do and still be sane afterwards. Lord I'm still working on me. Chafe me, prune me, refine me, and place me in the fire. I want to tested and pass that test.

Good MOrning sweetie. I only saw the last ten minutes of your discussion, but I did tape the 1am repeat so I can watch it this evening when I get home. Sorry I was called away from the journal. Now I have to get ready for today. Be blessed and be a true blessing to someone today. I have loved you with all my heart that is available for you to be a part of..

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for waking me up today Abba Father. Thank you for giving me insight into my worries and concerns Father God. Thank you for reminding me how you brought me through some mess before and you can bring me through this mess right now. Thank you for reminding me of my past and letting me know that my present is also able to be handled, managed and overcome. Thank you for loving me enough to even notice me Lord. Thank You Lord for caring. You know what the concerns of my heart are and you ease my mind in regards to them. You give me a new perspective on my situation. The same situation but just a new height to look at it from. Pick me up Daddy. Thank you for your blessings. I take no credit for any of it. If It had been left up to me I probably wouldn't even be here right now. Thank you for loving me Lord. I love you Lord. I love you.

I have to try and finish my reports today.I pray that all is well with you today. I hope you are doing bible study tonight and havent already left. But if you have I will adjust to that too. If you are traveling today, be careful. Be mindful of your surroundings. I will hope to see you this evening. Have a blessed day and be a blessing to someone. I love you.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Thank You for another day. I spend time with you in the morning Lord knowing that you are Alpha and Omega. The beginning and the end of my existence. I can't do anything without consulting you first. I put you first in my life Lord. You know my heart and sometimes I have come to this journal when I have not consulted you first, or I have consulted you in a half hearted manner. I have also come to this journal after seeking and reading and praying for hours. My heart's desire is to please you Lord. I know that if I fall in line with your will and desire for me then I will have my heart's desires. Thank You Father God for loving me. I love you Lord. I love you. I will always put you first. I always make my first message to you Lord. Then I speak to him. You are number one Lord. The first and the last. The beginning and the end. My one true love. My world revolves around you Lord. I won't forget that either.

Good Morning to you too. Did you sleep well? Have you had breakfast yet? Is today the day you leave? Will you be at bible study? Questions again.  I have the day off due to Pulaski. I thank that general for what he did in the American Revolution, while thinking that certain people wanted to have some arbitrary caucasian's holiday to celebrate since we now had an african american holiday to celebrate in January.

Kingdom building. I've been wondering just what that panel discussion could be about. What exactly do you mean by kindom building here on earth. Many have tried and many have failed. What does it look like? What are the expectations of the leaders who bring us there? What do the followers who comeexpect from the leaders? How do you keep the distractions of the city from interfearring with your relationship with God. We can each come to God. How do we do that with sincere and mindful hearts and mind. How do we build the kingdom that reflects God? How do we ourselves reflect God?

Just some questions. Now I must go and prepare my five week progress reports. I have put them off all weekend. I started on them last night but couldnt finish them.

Have a blessedly wonderful day today and know that you are loved.

Date Night

I wish I had a good excuse for missing date night on Friday. Something dramatic and important but alas it was only that I was tired, got home around 4pm. Took a nap around 5:30 and just slept and was awaken by the phone. I talked for a bit and went back to sleep. That had been such a trying week with the program and rehersals and stuff.

I am wondering if God wants me to really say and believe that I could make it without you. Not that I am saying I want to, because I don't,  but if I have to will I chose to stay with God.  Will I chose God to be my number one, will I not be mad if he takes you away from me. I guess I can be mad, God can take my mad, but will I still love him? Will I still devote my life to pleasing Him? I pray that I do. What if he takes me from you? You cannot be greater than my love for God. My love for you must always take second place. I must take second place in your life. God is the ultimate master. I don't want to place you higher than God in my life. I will continue this journal no matter what. Whether together or not I will continue the journal. I will write about my relationship with God and pray that I continue to have a relationship. He will not share his throne with anyone. I am going to get this right. I hope you know that.I hope you really believe that because I will not give up. Next time I hug you I am going to count to ten. I am going to count, that will make me stop, stop, stop, stop. I alos want a new picture so I have to remember to bring my camera.

I'm glad that you are going to TBN. Not to be part of the parade of stars who attempt to entertain us with their brand of religion. I do like Duplantis. He is funny and I believe he is true.

Again, Sorry that I was available for our date on Friday. Can I have a rain check?

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Thank you for another day. I sit at your feet listening and learning. My heart's desire is to please you Lord. I don't understand everything but I will trust in you and lean not to my understanding. I thank you for your grace and mercy. My love, my love, my love.

Welcome. Welcome into my journal. I officially invite you here. You always make our time together very special. I want to embrace this journal and the relationship it has allowed to flourish. I went to a party yesterday. We got there around 4:30 and left around 8pm. I was tired and didnt want to stay out too late. It was fun. Some people mentioned that they had seen you recently and you were sick. You barely had a voice.  I was amazed that you are still battling with your cold/flu/sinus infection. Maybe this is a new something trying to bother you. Maybe the old one never left completely. Maybe getting you well has to be the first priority on your agenda. I pray for a speedy recovery and a complete recovery. Have you been have any headaches too? How do you feel today? I'm very concerned about you.

Well I look forward to seeing you, I look forward to connecting with you. I just haven't seen you for so long I miss you.

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank You for today. Thank you for such a wonderful time. I didn't go anywhere and I didn't do anything special, just talked to a friend. I am often amazed at the small interactions in our life that will give us that "AH HA" moment. That "wow" moment. I thank you Lord for continuing to show me your way. Guide me and keep me hungry for your love and direction. If you are not in it I don't want to be in it.

You just have to take a risk to trust God. You have to have a leap of faith and be like a child in your faith. Trusting God to know what's best for you and believing that no matter what may happen, God always wants you to win. 

I want to eliminate any wall that separates me from a healthy relationship which ultimately leads to God's extraordinary love and grace. I don't want to be in the shadows and indifferent to anything. I want to shout it from the mountain tops about my love. I don't want to be the mistress, I want to be the misses. I'mnot looking for a secret love. I want the whole world to see. I'm not looking for show either.  I want the truth to be the fire that burns our love. the passion that keeps us wanting each other. I want so much. But I know I don't want some secret love affair. I thought this journal was a secret affair, but If I trust God and lean not to my own understanding then I see it differently. I want a change to take place.

OK I have to get ready for school. Be blessed and have a big wonderful day today.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. I wake with you on my mind. I had a restless night and I am praying for a good day. I thank you Lord for today and the opportunity to try to do something right in it today. I woke up early and could have given the keys to my brother for them to fix my car at his garage, I thought he would remember to take my car and he didnt. Now I have to wait another day. I was awake but I didnt want to get out of bed. When I heard the garage door I thought he had remembered but he didnt. He drove his own car. He's go a lot of things on his mindleast of which is getting my car fixed. I was thankful that his mechanic was going to take a look at it. I'm upset with myself for not getting up and reminding him. It was 4am and I was half sleep.

Today is a day of reflection and restoration. I will go to school with a new attitude.

Have a blessed day and be a blessing to someone.

HI

HI

I have had a wonderful week and I am trying to keep that wonderfulness going.

I am watching one of my favorite movie actresses portrayed by Jeniffer Love Hewitt.

Its Audrey Hepburn. I love the movies of the fifties and sixties. The stars that embellish that era. Marilyn Monroe, Doris Day, Gary Cooper,  Cary Grant,  Sean Connery, Sidney Poitier, etc. I love the movies of this era. Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Ginger Rodgers, etc. I dont watch them all the time but something about those movies intrigue me. The fact that they attempt to emulate a perfect society is always intriguing. Segregation is evident and the simple plot of plain day to day existence continues to enthrall everyday man's existence.  We are all just trying to survive in this world.

My students told me I was not to talk ghetto to them. They seem to need me to be something they are not used to and someone who will continue to expect the extreme best of them no matter what. That really ehlped vaildate my efforts. I didn't want to seem stuffy or overbearing but when they wanted me to not bring it down to their level they told me they wanted more and could rise to the what ever was presented before them. I felt really good to hear that. I felt they were receptive of my efforts to educate them and to reach them at their level and bring them up to another level. They like me.  That's important to me. My efforts are not in vain.  I can go to sleep tonight knowing that my students want me to challenge them, to always introduce new words to them regularly and to keep them on the cutting edge of their education.

What a day. Have a good evening and be blessed. I love you.

 

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord, some things are just not worth getting upset over. The first entry was typed and it was good. I pressed save and nothing happened. My entire entry just disappeared.

Now for the important parts.

Trust in the Lord and lean not to my own understanding. I want to get rid of my indifference. I don't want to come across as lukewarm.

I want to have a solid, positive relationship that nurtures and keeps me feeling loved with out the material trappings.

What is it that I need to feel loved in this relationship. What is it that I feel is missing that keeps me in an indifferent state of behavior? Where do I go from here.

I listen for the Lord and hear his words. I follow his path and desires for my life. I listen for the opportunity to be in the ministry and to do the things that God wants me to do. Have a blessed day and remember that I do love you.

Now I see it did enter. Oh well, you have both now.

Good Morning

Good MOrning Lord. Thank you for today. Thank you for waking me up today. Thank you for your mercy and grace in my life. You heard my cries, you listened to me complain and still, you stayed. Lord help me to go down your path only. If you don't go with me I don't want to go. I need you to guide me and direct me and love me. Love me Lord when I make a mistake. Love me Lord when I do the wrong thing as well as the right thing. Let me honor you as my only critic. Lord let me lose my indifference. My indifference seems insurmountable. I know that with you all things are possible. I don't want to be lukewarm, nor do I want to be percieved as such. Help make it right Lord. I listen for your words and your guidance. I search for you. I wait for you. I am desperate for you Lord.

I concede that I don't know how to do it. I wish a magic wand could be waved and the perfect words, movements and attitude would come from me. I don't have that magic wand so I work with what I have. A desire and will do do better. To develop a closer relationship and determination that I will.

The how to's, the floor plan, the diagram is not coming to me. I have to trust in the Lord to guide me and to direct my path. Trust in the Lord and lean not to my own understanding.

Have a  very blessed day today and be a blessing to someone.

Good MOrning

Thank you Lord for waking me up today. Your grace and mercy abound in my life. There are so many thoughts going on in my mind right now. I have to focus on you Lord with a conscious effort. My day to day existence is incomplete if I don't have the Lord in it every day. Thank you for your grace and thank you for your mercy.

Today I begin a fast. I have decided to take away something I really like.

Yesterday had its ups and down but ultimately the program was a success. I went to my dad's afterwards and we talk for awhile. I gave him present too. It was a good time. I hadn't talked with him in a while and we enjoyed each others company.

Have a blessed day and remember that you are loved today by many people, especially me.
