Please bare with me everyone, I got back from Lexington and caught a nasty lil bug.  I am bouncing back now and hopefully will be back to 100%.  I am preparing for the next discussion group March 1st.  I have had a request to set up skype, so if anyone else would like to join in, please let me know.  We are going to talk about Fear. look up some scriptures that talk about fear and we'll discuss them.  Think about how much of a roll fear plays in your life and how it has helped you or harmed you.  Is there a such thing as "good fear" and "bad fear".  This is a discussion group and we will look at scriptures to help us and guide us as we reach new levels in our spirituality.  I encourage you to invite someone to the group the more people we have the greater reward we will gain from learning and teaching each other. God Bless

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 bro...

Finished "Purpose Driven Life", Yes, we did it! With everything happening, I have an even greater desire to live out my purpose on this earth. All glory to God!

Random So I started out with good intentions to workout this morning...and ended up working on my blog. Well now I can update my blog from my phone! Lol

Wow! I was talking to one of my lil sis' this morning.  She was telling me about how proud of me she was.  I giggled and said "what do you mean?"  She began to explain to me how I have grown in my relationships and in my personality.  It was confirmation to me because I understood exactly what she was saying.  I before I used to act like someone who did not know how to love and accept others fully.  I was very short and always reserved. Always seemed busy and didn't talk to others about their situations. But I have been going through a love transformation in the past year. Through discovering Jesus' love for me I am now truly able to love others fully and walk in confidence in who I am. I see people differently, I want to speak life into their situations and I don't have to let fear stop me.  I am loving the person that God is shaping me to be.   My fellow Blogger Naima has a great saying she put...
