I am officially a published Author

I  know it has been a minute, but it appears that God's timing has come to past.  I am so happy to announce that I completed my first book "Against All Odds" and it was published by Covenant Books this past November.  Those of you who know me, know that I have been trying to write this book for years.  I realized that I was allowing fear to keep me from accomplishing what God had called me to do.  Fear is a powerful state of mind and it is amazing how much fear keeps us from changing the world, our communities and our families.

It took some coaching and counseling to get me through the book writing process and a lot of encouragement and discipline.  So many of us set lofty goals or have such big dreams about things we want to accomplish, but how many of us truly count up the cost (i.e sacrifice) of what it will take to make that dream a reality.  You may have to sacrifice time from family.  You will have to say no to things that you want to do, so that you can dedicate time to your goal(s). Moreover,  you will need a lot, I mean a lot of prayer.  It also helps to know that you are doing what God wants you to do, because He will equip you and empower you to accomplish your calling.  One tool that helped me out tremendously was the S.M.A.R.T goals tool.   I will have to add a link to the S.M.A.R.T goals tool for you.  It feels really great to have accomplished this goal  that was given to me by God.  I pray that you all will enjoy the book and let me know how it affected you.

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...
