Growth has it's pains

Have you ever seen someone so anointed that you would often times say..."Man! I want to be like so and so",  Well this isn't a revelation for me, but for some of you who have said that and maybe even are modeling your ministry or life in general off of someone that you admire...You have no idea what they have gone through to get to where they are!  I have experienced a new level of anointing and I tell you, it's lonely and people misunderstand you a lot.  I see things so much more spiritually than before and so there are things that totally vexes my spirit, but others around me don't see what I see and wonder why I'm not laughing or why I am not in  the conversations.  It's because I am waiting on what I need to do next for God. I don't want my life to be filled with meaningless carnal filters, but I am on a mission to see souls delivered.  This past Sunday Bishop said to check your temperature...are you hot or cold or just lukewarm?  I want to be hot!  Everyday I want to be at a consistent temperature, it has it's pains, it's rainy days, but God's Grace breaks through the clouds and gives me strength to stand. Growth has it's pains, but I'd rather have a temperature than to be walking around cold-dead or lukewarm-sick.  I'll take the pains...The bible says if I suffer with him, I'll reign with him.  I encourage you to keep growing, that's what we are supposed to do.  The bible says "from glory to glory", so lets grow together!

Catching up!

Hey everyone! My how I've missed my blog page!  I am sorry I haven't put a single post on here in May, but I was taking my last class before graduating and I needed total concentration on the task at hand.  Not that ministry ever stopped as those of you know me and were either at the small group back in May or at Church service on Sunday.  I am still about my Father's business and I have finished class with an A and I an now done with school completely!  How about all this rain!  WOW! It is scary to see so much devastation going on from the weather, my heart and prayers go out to all who have been  affected.  One more sign that let's us know that Jesus will be coming for his church and I don't know about you, but I don't want to be all lip service, but I  want my walk to stand before me when Jesus comes back.  I will post the next Nuggets of Faith small group meeting time and place shortly, but I just wanted to say I'VE MISSED YOU!...

A changed life

I just finished up studying with my husband, who was preparing to teach the Sunday School lesson.  The lesson subject is "Living a changed life".  It was coming out of Romans 6:1-13 and 22,23.  But I wanted to read the chapters leading up to chapter 6, so as I was going throught he chapters, two verses that stood out to me were from Chapter 1: 16-17.  Paul declares "I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith. Just as it is written, "The righteous will live by faith." This scripture spoke to me, we as believers and followers of Christ, should never be ashamed of such a powerful gospel.  This gospel holds the power for us to be saved.  But this is only true to those that have faith in the gospel of grace.  Grace is Gods power to help us to live a righteous life, i...
