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 word of God.  But anyways, I am soliciting all of your prayers as both my husband and I embark on an even more challenging journey in our lives, spiritually and professionally it's going to take all of God's power in us to get the job done!
love you all!

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...
