Good Morning

Good Morning Lord.

"My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry." James 1:19

 

So today I will listen carefully. I will heed the words that come out of my mouth. I will count to ten before I become angry if at all.

I pray that God will clear my mind and help me to focus on His word. The word of the Lord. Lord I ask you to help me become a better listener and doer of your Word. Help Me to be a better listener.

I have to get the apartment ready, meet the workers over there and try to beat the storm for today.

Be blessed today and be a blessing to someone.

Good Night

I am taking a couple of mental health days to manage some business. The area science fair was this week and with the Saturday school in full swing I am exhausted. I have been managing the building, I have one for sure renter and one maybe renter. Tomorrow we go out and have it cleaned really good. I'm going to an allergist tomorrow. I have been putting it off and today I finally took the time to call and make an appt. They will see me tomorrow. I made a dermatologist appt too for Monday. I am seeing an optometrist on Friday for new glasses. I am getting myself together. Healthwise anyway. I want the physical and mental to be in good condition. Things can change in an instant. I want to be ready for God's will in my life. I want to prepare and show that I believe and am really ready.

I'm tired so I will say good night. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone special. I love you.

My God, My God

My God, My God. Why has thou forsaken me? Why are yo so far from me? I pray but receive no answer, but then realize the answer I receive is the one I am ignoring. I pry for you  to tell me what to say, not what I want to say but what you would like for me to say. The first thing you do is tell me to prepare for marriage. Teach me how to prepare for that Lord. Teach me to not be a hindrance to my future spouse. Teach me your ways of being and doing so that I will be healthy and whole. When I think that you are not there I find myself believing that you have been there all the time.

You've been faithful, faithful to me...

Teach me how to use the principles and practices of the bible to save myself a lot of trouble and pain.. Help me to work hard on myself so that when you are ready, I am ready also.

Then you tell me to remember the crucifixion of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ.

Matthew 27. Another time that we have felt God was absent in a time when he was needed badly. But even though we cant understand the reasons why at that time, we know that God was still there. It was necessary for Jesus to go through the social condemnation from the very people he was trying to save.

He's been faithful, faithful to me...

Lord let me not bow down to the social pressures around me. Let your tender mercies and your loving arms of protection guide me where I need to be. Let me hear your commands and your voice in my life. Let me say your words, not mine but yours. Let me be used by you Lord.

I love you. Have a blessed day today. Be safe.

Date Night

Hello Darling

I am speaking that which is to be.

My laptop table has come apart. I suppose I shouldn't complain. I have had it for ten years. Long before I began using it as a laptop table. I still have the top that I can use separately.

I want you to know that I didn't miss that barb about my always being late to stuff and expecting to get a seat up front. I try my best to get there as soon as I can. I cant help it if I have to make sure daddy has his food and medicine, baby is fed, changed and clean. I generally will be late anyway so they just make me later. I have made some very positive efforts to be on time. I probably wont get the ticket I want because they will go on sale at an impossible time. I just cant leave the people that I have to care for in any old state just because I have to get to church.

I have heard of love but I only know about caring for others.

I cared for my brother when children made fun of him because he was different and someone threw a brick and hit him in the head. I cared for him when the nun continuously smacked him in the head because he didn't do what she said.

I cared for my mom when she remained drunk for most of my formative years.

I cared for my husband when his fellow marines dropped him on the doorsteps, literally, drunk and passed out.

I cared for my children, when the judge took them away from me for the summer because he told the judge I was trying to take them away from him. I cared enough to bargain with him to reduce the amount of back child support he had to pay me if he gave me full custody, and he did.

I cared for my grandfather for nine years when we returned to Chicago and were able to stay with him while I took card of a declining, sick., elderly man who wasn't very nice to be around. His own family, my father and aunt and uncle relied on me to do everything for him.

I cared for my mother enough to purchase a home to make sure she had some where to live in her elderly years because she had no retirement or any one else to care for her. Even though she treats me like shit and always reminds me that she doesn't like me.

I cared for my brother when he had a heart attach and couldn't work the same. His financial contributions are minimum but none the less he lives and eats just like everyone else.

I cared for my father when he got sick. He is now my charge. Preparing his food, medicine, washing clothes, managing the apartment building, the finances, everything. Its my responsibility because I brought him here, I imposed on everyone with this need of his.

Last but not least I care for my daughters and grandson. That's where love does come in. I receive it and I give it freely to them. Life isn't easy but it is what it is. So I know about taking care of people through sickness and in health. I'm there. If love is taking care of someone, then that me. But I think there is more to love than just taking care of someone and I want to find that love.

That's been my world.

The Affairs Of Life

Lord I ask to be filled with your Godly wisdom. In the name of Jesus I receive skill and instruction to discern and comprehend the words of understanding and insight.I pray for instruction in wise dealings and discipline of the wise thoughtfulness, righteousness, justice, and integrity.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. We havent been down this road together in a while.Early, early morning worship. What seems to be the topic of discussion in my prayers, overcoming a feeling of rejection. Rejection seems to create an identity crisis. When who you are in the world is given an opportunity to have the self destructive tapes erased that have played in your mind or been stored for a long time comes into contact with God-thoughts and God's opinions about you, the rejection doesnt seem to matter as much.

God saw me and approved of me in my mother's womb. (Psalm 139:13-16) God gave me survival tools that I would need to battle this world.

Life for me has never been a crystal stair. This is one of the first poems that I memorized as a child. It spoke to me in my situation then and it speaks to me now.

Mother to Son by Langston Hughes

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor --
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now --
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

 

I find that the struggle is always there. Future rejection may hurt, but it will only be for a season (1Peter 1:6)

I'se still climbin'

Victory over my feelings of rejection come through prayer in faith and love.

Father God there is cause and effect in every thing we do. When things hapen to us that we just have to cry out to Jesus for, you know the reason. When we are our own worst enemy, you know the reason. Cause and Effect. Something happened to us long ago and we dont want to remember it now. We know we have to though to move on. Isnt that what everyone says. Face the past, to move to your new future. Butwe dont face it alone. We walk with Jesus. I approach your throne with grace and confidence Lord. I ask you to forgive my sins, and I pray to receive your mercy, I expect your healing grace to dispel the rejection I feel.

Newton's Three Law's of Motion

Law One

An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

This law is often called
"the law of inertia".

or

This means that there is a natural tendency of objects to keep on doing what they're doing. All objects resist changes in their state of motion. In the absence of an unbalanced force, an object in motion will maintain this state of motion.

Second Law

Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass (of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed (to accelerate the object).

or

Everyone unconsiously knows the Second Law. Everyone knows that heavier objects require more force to move the same distance as lighter objects.

Third Law

For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action.

or

This means that for every force there is a reaction force that is equal in size, but opposite in direction. That is to say that whenever an object pushes another object it gets pushed back in the opposite direction equally hard.

(thanks to Rice University)

S to begin to use the Laws of Motion as a metaphor on my life and my relationship with God I have to say that Law One is my ability to keep doing the same thing and to keep getting the same results until that unbalanced force is introduced. That push to go farther, see more, do more, and the balance is disturbed. Law two certainly lets me know that the object that is blocking me is huge, it requires more force. The third that there is a reaction to the push. So Lord I end now, I'm moving forward with force and I know that the reaction will be equal in strength but in the opposite direction. I will set my heart on Jesus. I will keep purpose in my mind, body and soul and I fight to the end to receive your justice and mercy. I am not interested in any of my goals if they fall contrary to God's goals. I want nothing in life but to please God.

I'm Sorry Lord

I'm Sorry Lord.

I pray that Jesus will be an intercessor for me and stand in the gap for my transgressions.

I got frustrated and needed to just get it out. I need a change.

I know I am responsible for everything that I said and did or didn't do. Its all on me.

I just ask God for forgiveness and know that I am continually on my search for the right to stand before him and possibly hear well done good and faithful daughter.

What Do You See?

What do you see when you look at me?

Lord what do I see when I look at me?

Am I doing my best?

Am I following the rules? AM I BREAKING THE RIGHT RULES?

Am I able to do God's will? Is this for me? God's will? What is it?

Why do I want to give up?

Why do I think that this is not for me?

What are my reservations in the matter?

It seems so much more sterile than I want it to be. Its more distant than I want it to be.

Everybody is in this relationship. That's a good thing. I THINK, MAYBE, MAYBE NOT. I WAS ASKED DO I REALLY WANT THIS AND I SAID YES.HOW CAN YOU REALLY WANT SOMETHING AND NOT WORK TOWARDS GETTING IT.

 AM I WORKING TOWARDS GETTING WHAT I WANT.

 IS WHAT I WANT WHAT GOD WANTS?

IS IT BETTER FOR HIM TO BE THERE THAN IT IS FOR ME TO BE WITH HIM? WILL HE ACCOMPLISH MORE WITHOUT ME? IS IT BETTER FOR HIM TO STAY THERE AND CONTINUE THE FIGHT FROM THAT ARENA? I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT HE WOULD CONTINUE THE FIGHT FROM WHATEVER ARENA HE IS IN.

GOD I THINK I'M MAD AT YOU. YOU CAN HANDLE MY ANGER BUT CAN I HANDLE BEING ANGRY WITH YOU? I DONT LIKE BEING ANGRY WITH YOU? i NEED TO GET IT OFF MY CHEST AND MOVE ON. I DONT WANT TO BE ANGRY WITH YOU GOD BUT I AM.

 MY ANGER IS TO SAY TO YOU WHY DO YOU ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN? DON'T YOU SEE THE PAIN THAT IS CAUSED. WHY DO YOU LET THIS HAPPEN?

 IS THIS WHAT IS SUPPOSE TO HAPPEN? I DOUBT IT.

 WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? SHOULDN'T I BE ABLE TO ASK HIM A SIMPLE QUESTION? SHOULDN'T I INVITE HIM TO DINNER?  DONT I HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE IN THE COMPANY OF A MAN WHO LIKES ME? MUST I BE ALONE? AM I CHOOSING TO BE ALONE, IF SO THEN I WANT TO STOP CHOOSING TO BE ALONE.

WHAT'S THE STOPPER? LET'S GO OVER SOME OF THE THINGS THAT HAVE MADE ME QUESTION OR DELAY. LET'S BRAINSTORM...ANYTHING AT ALL THAT HAS BRISTLED ME IN THE PAST......

NO THANK YOU FOR PRESENTS OR CARD.

NEVER RETURNS MY PHONE CALLS

THERE'S NO RESPONSE TO MY JOURNAL OR EMAILS

TOO MANY WOMEN

THERE IS NO RESPONSE TO ME EXCEPT THROUGH SERMONS AND BIBLE STUDY. ITS VERY ONE WAY. WHAT DOES HE WANT, A BIG OUTBURST IN CHURCH OR BIBLE STUDY. A BIG DEMONSTRATIVE SHOWING. SOME KIND OF HUGE RESPONSE? SOME KIND OF RESPONSE IN GENERAL?

HE LEAVES THIS RELATIONSHIP UP TO ME TO MAKE IT WORK OR HAPPEN.IF I DON'T DO SOMETHING IT WONT HAPPEN. WHY IS EVERYTHING ON ME AS FAR AS COMMUNICATION AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

HE SAYS THINGS THAT ARE MEAN SOMETIMES HE HURTS MY FEEINGS.

 WILL I BE TOO SENSITIVE FOR HIM? IF HE HURTS MY FEELINGS ENOUGH I WONT WANT HIM. HE CAN BE MEAN SOMETIMES, BUT WHO ISN'T SOMETIMES. HE CARES, HE SHOWS THAT IN BIG WAYS. CAN HE HANDLE SHOWING HE CARES IN LITTLE WAYS?

WILL WE ARGUE A LOT? WILL IT BECOME A CONSTANT BATTLE?

WHAT MUST HE THINK OF ME NOW?

HOW CAN I TRANSITION FROM NOT TALKING TO TALKING AND STILL FEEL RESPECTED.

HE MUST THINK I'M WEAK.

HE THINKS, HE THINKS, HELL, I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE THINKS AND HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT I THINK. ITS ALL IN MY HEAD. ITS JUST MY IMAGINATION. RUNNING AWAY WITH ME.

THIS IS ALL JUST TALK RIGHT NOW.

 I HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING TO HIM NOW AND I HAVE TO CHOSE WISELY.

NOT REALLY. I'M MAD AT YOU GOD, I'M MAD THAT I AM IN THIS SITUATION.I'M MAD AT GOD FOR PUTTING ME IN THIS SITUATION.

I'M MAD. I'M BLAMING GOD AND I'M MAD.

I TYPED THIS AND THOUGHT I WOULD ERASE IT AND TYPE SOMETHING NICE AND CUTE I JUST WANTED TO GET MY FEELINGS OUT, WHAT EVER IT WAS JUST CLEAR THE AIR. THATS WHAT THIS WAS SUPPOSE TO BE FOR ME. SOMETHING TO CLEAR THE AIR, CLEAR MY MIND AND GET RID OF SOME THOUGHTS THAT WERE CLOUDING MY MIND.

BUT NOW THAT I HAVE REACHED THIS POINT AND NOTHING HAS REALLY CHANGED OR COME CLEAR TO ME

I THINK I HAVE REACHE A PLATEAU. I KNOW IM FED UP. I THINK ILL JUST HIT THE SEND BUTTON. WHAT DIFFERENCE WILL IT MAKE, YOU'LL JUST SAY SOMETHING ABOUT IT IN BIBLE STUDY AND LIFE WILL GO ON. LIFE WILL GO ON. WHAT WILL BE WILL BE.

Perserverance

Father God  I believe that you have heard my groanings. I believe that you have heard my prayers. I believe that I will live to see your promises fulfilled in my lifetime. In this moment and time of discouragement, disappointment, and anger I still chose to believe that your word is true. You have delivered me from the past and I know you can take care of my present and future. I will keep faith in God. I will exercise my will and desire to really do what I want, what I desire to do, what I say I want to do.

Be blessed tonight and stay warm.

Date Night


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


So the movie for tonight is Legend of the Fall. I just love Brad Pitt in this movie.


I had a chance to see Andy Roddick lose a very close match.


After I watch Legends I will watch Monk at 8pm the maybe The Thomas Crown Affair.


Tomorrow is Saturday School and I have to be there early.


No baby tonight and I miss him;/ I miss his mommy too.


We must have Godly wisdom in the affairs of life. We must challenge the norm and be ready for a difference of opinion. I ask in Godly wisdom to be faithful and filled with God's knowledge. I discern and comprehend the words of understanding and insight. Prudence, knowledge, discretion and discernment are given to me. Wisdom will keep, defend and protect me.


I love you, I love you, I love you. God  knows I love you. Do you know I love you? Hear my heart. I love you, I love you, I love you.


James 1:5 (New International Reader's Version)


 5 If any of you need wisdom, ask God for it. He will give it to you. God gives freely to everyone. He doesn't find fault.

Preparing Myself for God's Dream and Promise for Myself

I asked God tonight. Tonight I sat quiet, I meditated and I pondered. It was all about you. What do I have to do to get to you. I don't want to wait till you are dead or gone. I want to get to you now. I went to my prayer book that has always been faithful in guiding me on subjects and what does it come to for me tonight..preparing for marriage.. How can I prepare for marriage when I have this stopper in my life. This blockage. I have to wonder if this is for me. Is this really a blockage. Can I will it away. Are these my days right now. Lead me to where you want me to be. Teach me your ways. Show me how to be responsible. Teach me about boundaries. Teach me about love. Help me to speak the truth.   I pray that I am able to follow God"s desire. Rules and Laws, they are made to be broken. I want to please God.

Ephesians 4:15 (The Message)

 14-16 No prolonged infancies among us, please. We'll not tolerate babes in the woods, small children who are an easy mark for impostors. God wants us to grow up, to know the whole truth and tell it in love—like Christ in everything. We take our lead from Christ, who is the source of everything we do. He keeps us in step with each other. His very breath and blood flow through us, nourishing us so that we will grow up healthy in God, robust in love.

My Stopper

Hello Darling

Today was long. I started off this morning watching some of the Australian Open. I love tennis. I watch all the grand slams. Time is a big factor in this one.

I have been working on my stopper. I asked God to help me identify it. I picked up one of your CDs to listen in the car this morning and I just happened to pick up one where you talk about disappointment. How it can stump you. How it can just send you down, but if God knows your heart and I believe God does, then the mistakes that I have made aren't as important. What is the problem. Have I found the problem>I think there is more work to be done. I will will this to be done. I have nothing on my list of things to do but this,. Its too important. Its necessary. I will will this to happen. I will pray more, concentrate on it more. I will give it my undivided attention. I need this to happen.

Today was my dad's birthday. I was gone all day with work and class but I still brought him a cake and his favorite fried food. Chicken.  I gave him a couple pairs of flannel pajamas, he love it.

My little man leaves tomorrow. They will be gone for 10 days. Of course I will miss him but right now its looking pretty good that I will have a break.

How was your day today? Did you do anything exciting?

Be blessed tonight and be a blessing.

Water

I would love to be able to just turn it off. Find the stopper and make it stop.

I need more of you. I need this to work.I need to figure his out and make this work.

Good Night, Be Blessed and Be a Blessing.

Good Morning

Father God help me to speak words of grace today to those that I come in contact with. Anoint my lips to speak excellent things about everyone. Give me the foresight to see the good in every situation today. When I open my lips today let the right thing come out of them. Help me to reach for the stars in my expectations of myself and others today. Let today be a day of appropriate discipline, and appropriat rewards for good behavior. Allow me to speak words that comfort, encourage, strengthen and honor. Anoint my lips with coals of fire from your alter so that I may keep watch at the door of my lips. Father God forgive me when my patience has come to an end. Forgive me when I cross the line and have said what I should not have said. Whatever comes my way today I consider it wholly joyful and I will understand that endurance and patience are part of everyday life occurrences. Father God you are my Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener and Standby. Lord you know my heart, search my heart hear the words that I do not speak, know the thoughts that are running through my head, give me wisdom so that I might show your glory in my life.

I had problems with the system yesterday and today but I perservered and today I am writing, so there.The obstacles come but I will keep fighting.

Trust Me

 

Could you please excuse me, forgive me, pardon me.

What the heck is wrong with me. I'm right in your face. I practiced, I was determined.

I said nothing.

Its not that you are who you are. I don't have the hierarchal fear. I can generally talk to anybody. You are a man and I don't put you on a pedestal. I don't take any of this for granted.

I think of this a a tumble down the rabbit hole. Will I fall down the hole? Its like that trust fall when someone stands behind you and you cross your arms, close your eyes and just fall back. Relax. I'm just struggling with the logistics of things. I am valuable. I am worth it. I pray that I get it together.

I have enrichment academy on Mondays and Tuesdays from 3-6pm. Wednesdays are now taken up with a science endorsement class for the next twelve weeks. This semester is over on the 25th. Grades are due. The good news is that Austin and his mom are leaving on Thursday for ten days in Idaho, so that means I will have two Thursdays, two Fridays and two Sundays free from babysitting. Yahoo!

Be blessed and be a blessing.

Microscope

 

Today was training again. I had hoped to attend the poetry session but I was just exhausted. I took a nap and didn't wake until 6:15 then I didn't have transportation until 7:30. I just decided that if I got there at 8:30 that it would be too late for the event if it was over at nine. But now I think about it, the time was probably ove at 10pm.  I have had a long week and I think its taking its toll on me right now.

I am your creation, Father and You created me  to be active in sharing my faith, so that I will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ. It is my prayer in Jesus' name that my conversation will always be full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that I may know how to answer everyone. I am content with my own reality in whatever state I am, so those around me can feel safe in my presence. I will speak truly, deal truly, and live truly, expressing the truth in love.

I deal in love only. I see you in love only. I speak to you in love only.

Be blessed tonight and be a blessing to someone special.

The Race

This presidential race will be very interesting.

I find lots of things about it interesting.

The fact that so many people turn out to see him, but fail to vote for him. He has become a showpiece. Come and see the new candidate. Some who would vote for him become lazy and don't show up. Some just want to say they were there and never had any intention of voting for him. Some say he has so many people there and I'll let them vote for him and he winds up....when it all plays out on the day without the necessary number of votes.

He needs his moment. His I'm mad and I'm not going to take it anymore. He cant cry but he's got to get people to make that commitment and actually go and vote. Also to vote for him. Record numbers are coming out but its not just for him. Lord I pray that he wins and wins big.

Hill and Bill are going to get tougher not nicer. They have hit the human factor.

He has got to stop putting on the show. If he charged admission, He'd be rich. Or lets just say richer. Well that's just my opinion. But he should learn from Kerry, He had all the support and still lost. He didn't get the votes and that's what counts. People have to get out and vote for him.

Well Good Night. 

Wednesday, January 9, 2008

Hi

How was your day today?

Did you have a good day today? I just feel like being comfortable with you right now. Sor of cozy and snuggly.

I just feel like sitting down and just relaxing with you and just curling up, watching tv, a movie, just relaxing. Nothing special.

I had training today so it was a good day for me. Tomorrow more training. Yeah. Saturday more training. Boo. But I can deal with it because of the two straight days away from the terror at school.

I need to get in the presence of God right now so its prayer time for me.

Have a blessed night and sleep well. Good night.

Hello Darling

Today has come and gone as an uneventful day. Lots of unnecessary drama from the children, but I think they were just happy to be back. I refused to be drawn into their drama. I kept my cool and kept my voice down. I might have had one or two instances where I almost lost it with them but overall I think I was pretty cool.

I have decided that when you get what you have prayed for and asked God for, when he does decide to give it to you then he will give you support and encouragement to be successful. He will guide you. I think the concern I have with this job is that there is little support.  So does that mean God doesn't want me here, maybe, maybe not. maybe my time is short here. Don't get too comfortable here. I think with marriage, God will help when it gets ordinary and mundane. You have a partner to talk to and comfort each other. You can keep the life in your marriage. Together, you can make it work.

I'm so tired. I'm not use to getting up at 5 anymore.Take care and be blessed. Good Night Sweetie.

Sunday, January 6, 2008

Beautiful Day

What a wonderful beginning.

 New Beginnings for 2008. I believe this is the year for new things to happen. I agree that God cant give us what we want immediately when we ask for it. We are not able to handle the responsibilities that come with what we want so immediate in the relationship. He has to build trust. He must let us build faith and trust. Trust in Him and trust each other. Our Triangle. HE, YOU, ME. Trust and faith.

The Christmas Story is very popular. I tried to get a copy today and they were all sold out. I like to listen in the car. I'll just have to listen on the computer.

I have set the on switch on my alarm clock. I've washed my clothes. I am in the almost right frame of mind for my day tomorrow. Life is good, Jesus loves me and its only six and a half hours. If the good Lord wakes me up then I will do what ever it is that He wants me to do that day. I will try to be more mindful of doing what the Lord wants me to do on a daily basis.

Good Night Darling, be blessed and be a blessing to someone.

Wiggle Room

We have been out and about today, visiting with my best friend. Her dad died in November and we have been constantly saying we are going to get together but havent. So this eek I made it a point to meet with two friends. One Friday, which was a great lunch. Then today, we always like to look and shop and talk.

I'm watching this show right now about a couple who decide to get married in South Africa. This is so interesting. That's one continent I have not been on. It's amazing. The story is very intriguing.

I'm excited about tomorrow. I have good expectations for my future. Dominate in 2008!

That is my mantra. My motto. My goals.

Be blessed this evening. Be a blessing to someone. Good Night.,

Stand for Change

What a good thing we have when change can occur unabated.

I am so happy that Obama was the winner. The press will do his advertising  now for the next few days. Save the campaign some money. We will see a change in this country. Its overdue.

I watched the PBS documentary about some Detroit third graders from 1968 who had a black teacher and they were 90 percent white, that taught them them meaning of Dr. King's dream. That really was a magical time. The men walked on the moon, cities rioted, people were ready for a change then and they are ready for a change now.

Now I am watching Obama's speech and I believe he can do it. I pray that he does it. I pray that he continues to keep people around him who are truly knowledgeable about the needs of the people. I pray that he quits smoking and eats a healthy diet. I don't want him to die like Harold Washington, due to bad health and a poor diet. I pray that his wife is going to see that he is healthy and that he gets the rest he needs. I pray that he realizes that he can be his biggest downfall now. Take care of himself. Live throughout the term. Value his health right now and in the future. Stop Smoking!

How are you today! Did you take care of yourself today? Are you trying to be respectful of your life expectancy? There are many people who need you and are willing to let you lead them to something better. Including me. Take care of yourself. That's all I have to say. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone.

Glorious Conquerors

What a day.

It is so cold outside.

I feel so much better about my accomplishments this day.

I am working on my resolution list and one of them was to get the building fully rented. I have one person ready to rent today. Yeah. I have to get two more apartments rented. My goal is to have the entire building occupied in 60 days. I should've have done this a long time ago.

"All glory is fleeting"

I cant rest on my laurel today.

I am working on creating bigger and greater expectations in my life., I have a goal and I want to achieve it.

Be blessed this evening and be a blessing to someone.

New Beginnings

DOMINATE in 2008!

I pray for humility. I pray to be able to humble myself and follow God's will for my life.

If I am here in this New Year then God has something for me to do. What is my calling? What am I suppose to do? How am I suppose to do it?

Humble me LORD. Don't let Pride keep me from you. Let me fulfill your desire Lord. Let this new year be a year of representing the Lord.  Help me to focus on what's important in your kingdom. Let me be successful in your kingdom. Let me do your will. Humble me to not do my will but your will Lord. Show me how to love.  Let me be refreshed and renewed. Give me the confidence that I need to love a man with a harem. Give me the strength to know that there is love for me and that I don't have to be crazy or needy. Give me the confidence I need to love him and believe that he loves me. I know Lord that you said that this is the one but in the natural it just doesn't seem to be. Lord you know me and what I need and what I am able to do. I walk by faith on this journey and continually want to stretch my self. I want to step out on faith and walk that path that you have laid before. I believe that you have more for me than I could ever dream of . I wonder if I have the courage, confidence and strength to take it. That is my prayer for this year. COURAGE, STRENGTH AND CONFIDENCE.
