Praise the Lord Saints of God!!!!
I hope everyone is doing well. It's pretty much the same old, same old with me. I am still hanging on to my faith in Jesus Christ. I look back at my life and see the many times where Jesus carried me through my trials and hardships. The trials and hardships are still present, but they are less tense now. I am a little worried/concerned about my finances. It seems as if the price of everything is rising. I can definatley tell by looking at my bank account this morning. I know there are areas where I need to be a little more conservative such as eating out everyday. I decided that I am going to the grocery and stock up on food. I plan to cook more to cut down on my expenses. God gives us wisdom about things. He gave me a few suggestions on ways to cut my expenses.
Hopefully, within a next couple of months I will be able to get a raise on my job. My spring semester classes will be ending soon. So far I have A averages. I am hoping and praying that the Lord will help me to be able to pay for my summer classes. All in all the Lord is good.
PS---- Please pray for my mother. She received a negative report from the doctor. I won't go into detail with you all just yet. As usual the enemy tries to make you think the worst of the worst. BUT he is a LIAR!!!!

Praise the Lord!!!
Just checking in with you guys. I hope all is well with everyone. I am feeling a wee bit discouraged today. Things just aren't happening quickly enough. I know that patience/longsuffering is one of the fruit of the spirit. I know this fruit needs to be developed in my life. Waiting upon God can really, really test your faith. But I know God will give me the ability to wait upon Him.
I am disgusted about the latest news today. A man having a baby. This is utterly disgusting and I am sure God is not pleased. In my opinion this "man" is a woman no matter how many surgeries "he" has had. This "he " is no different than a heteorsexual woman giving birth to a child. Imagine how this child maybe confused when he/she gets older. People have defied the Living God with this garbage. All I can do is pray that they repent and turn from their wicked ways. Keep this nation/world in prayer.

Praise the Lord!!!!
Today I ran into a young man who used to live in my neighborhood when I was about 14yrs. old. The young man and my brothers were great friends. This particular young man used to live a wild crazy lifestlye. When I saw him today he told me that he had given his life to the Lord. He is now married and has kids. He told me that Jesus is the only way to go and that accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior is the best decision he ever made. Needless, to say I was amazed at how God saved this young man. It really encouraged me to hear him talking about serving and loving the Lord. This just lets me know that no one is beyond God's reach no matter what former lifestyle they once lived. The Lord forgives all of our sins and remembers them no more.
Psalm 32:1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven whose sin is covered.

Praise the Lord!!
I don't know where to begin. I just found out this week that my prayer partner and friend has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I was really in a state of shock. I am saddened by the news. But I know God is going to take care of her. I just want to be there to support, pray, and encourage her. Also my mother will get the results of her test on next week. My mother is worried sick. I told her to try to calm down and trust the Lord. I know I have to be strong in the Lord so that I can be strong for my mother and my friend.
The burdens I have been facing lately seem to back to back. I had a good crying episode on Thurs. The "why me, Lord?" cry. I am reminded of the Lord's Words" in the world ye shall have tribulation but be of good cheer I have overcome the world". Troubles, problems, and trials are inevitable. If you don't have problems, I want to know what planet are you living on. Anyways please pray for my friend and my mother.

Praise the Lord!!!
My spring semester classes have finally ended. I passed both classes successfully. The time and money were definately worth the sacrifice. My friend will start her chemo soon. She seems to be in good spirits. She is trusting God for healing and restoration of her body. I plan to do all I can to help her through this trying time. Also please pray for my niece. She had another ministroke on Sunday. She was looking forward to going to church, but instead she spent the day in the hospital. She has already had 2 major brain surgeries. Please pray that God will touch her body and cause her to regain use of her left arm and leg.
Pray for me as well. I am going thru another bout of depression. Pray that the Lord will sustain me and cause me to have peace and joy in the midst of my trials.

Praise the Lord!!!!
Well this morning I heard the words "get rid of it". I know this must have come from the Lord. It was like these words popped out of thin air. Well, anyway I have been having a bad attitude towards someone. I have been asking God to help me change my attitude towards this person. I even find myself talking bad about this person. I need the Lord's help to help me to be able to like this person and to speak well of this person. This just lets me know that I have a long way to go. God is not through with me yet.

Praise the Lord!!!
I am still holding on to my faith in the Lord. I recently spoke to my friend who has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. She will be starting her chemo treaments soon. Thank God the cancer hasn't spread to any other part of her body. She seems to be doing fine. She and I are praying for a miracle that all of the cancer cells will be destroyed. We both know that God is more than able to perfrom a mighty miracle. Please pray for her that God will strengthen and heal her body. It's always helpful to read in the Bible all of the mighty healing miracles the Lord performed. My favorite instance is found in Matthew 8:1-4. I can actually visualize this scene in my head. God was more than willing to heal this leper who may have been treated like an outcast because of his disease.
Also pray for me. I am so confused about my life. I know what I want out of life, but I am not sure what it is that God wants to do with my life. My goals seem so far from my reach. I know a confused mind is not of the Lord. Pray that the Lord will give me clarity and direction concerning my life.
