2011 Men and Women Conference Lexington,KY

So we are here at the Conference here in Downtown Lexington, KY.  I must say that I was looking forward to this conference.  So many years of going to conferences and national meetings, it was a hard press to do so, but through the development of relationships, each year becomes more and more joyous.  This year has been a wonderful blessing.  I have developed really great friendships and have seen my single friends find love.  It is so awesome to see history unfold with the ones you hold dear to your heart.  On top of that, when the preached word came forth by Elder Hollis, it uplifted my spirit, and catapulted me to another level of accountability in Christ, "not on my watch"!  Then a reminder that we need to let go of the past, stop living in hurt and shame, stop rehearsing the situation, but get over it and be made whole, because "After this"  comes my breakthrough, comes my next level, comes my abundant life.  Whew! The men's day brought the word to us and that was awesome.  Min. Erica McNeal exhorted the people and commanded us to trade our sorrow, grief, mourning and pain for a garment of praise. Some of us are weighed down by too much baggage, too much stuff!  We can't praise him like we need to.  Take off your baggage...It's time to give it to Jesus.

Certainly, as I have always said when I take time out for God...It was a great stewardship of my time, money and resources to have been apart of history and to experience the love and fellowship of my brothers and sisters in Christ.  I look forward to hearing good reports on everyone that I have talked to this weekend.
Until next blog!

All I have to Give

There is nothing that I could give to God except the one thing that he desires and that Is my life. Everyday I am reminded of how pitiful I am without Him in my life.  So many times I feel like what is the use, Lord I feel so inadequate to do your will, but all along he gave me everything I needed to give him my all.  I am his workmanship and he is marveling over what he put in me.  The problem is me,  I realize that the one thing that I have to give to God is my life.  It is all that I have to give, It is all you have to give, so give it all to him, heart, mind body and soul!  I have nothing else to bring to the table but that of the one thing he granted me and that is life.  My prayer is that we all realize that we are his workmanship,  we once were lost, without order and our lives were Godless, but he loved us so much that he adopted us into His royal family that we too have the opportunity to have fellowship with God, that we to have the...

Today I read the prayer of Jabez 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 and also watched Jentezen Franklin I just got back from a much deserved 2 week vacation and I am so glad to have a home to come back to! I have had moments of re-evaluation through out this trip and I must confess that I have come away with more "to dos" than  "have dones" on this trip.  I certainly have a lot of work to do, but the one thing that I know is it's going to take a lot of faith.  More faith than I realized.  And to top it all off, the first sermon that I hear when I come back is on the prayer of Jabez.  Just reading the prayer made me feel unworthy.  I know God wants to bless me, but I feel unworthy to ask him. I know that he will open up doors for me to travel and deliver his word, I just don't know how, and I feel awkward asking him to bless me and enlarger my territory,  I am not looking to be rich and famous, I just want to influence peoples lives through my testimony, and the wo...

You are Not Alone ...As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you.                                                                                                                          Joshua 1:5 Joshua was charged with bringing God's people into the promise land after his predecessor Moses and all the Generation before them had passed. Joshua was with Moses during the 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, he was with Moses through battles and triumphs, through failures and progress.  However, he wasn't in the position Moses was in as the leader. But now, it was Joshua's turn to lead the people of God, I can't imagine the stress h...
