Hey gangola

Not much to say tonight (as always it seems) I have yet another quiz tomorrow this one in Personality theories and at this point I'm not prepared... I've not finished even reading the second chapter... I'll have it read and gone over though before I go into class... I'm very pleased with my Father because He is just affirming in me that this IS my destiny... it just keeps lining up... that and the fact that I KNOW that I can't continue in my current job indefinitely... I know that I'm learning and growing in it.. however I'm not doing what I really desire to do and that is counsel the specific population of people I desire too... I want to see people on the road to healthy marriages, healthy mental states, healthy families... and ... this job just ain't it... but I am there for a purpose and I will finish my course.

I am trying to get a better grip on my lacking areas and some days I do okay and others ... EGH! so... I just know that I won't beat myself up... I'm trying and I know that I can do better and with God's help and my honesty to Him and Him knowing the desire of my heart... I REFUSE to allow the enemy to come in and condemn me! I want you all to hear me because I read your posts in places around here and we slip up... not even sin.. I'm not talking about sin... I'm talking about not doing all that you know you should daily.. kwim? and yet we begin to feel unworthy and allow the devil to beat us up! Stop that! That fool has NO power over you and is telling you that you aren't worthy! Don't listen to him.. he's going to hell, what does he know! Know this.. Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,... (Jude 1:24)

Made a commitment or promise to God that you're... slacking in... dust yourself off... repent to Him for not honoring your commitment and forge ahead! We serve a loving, forgiving, all knowing, Faithful God! I shall continue to bless His name! I shall continue to lift Him up, I shall continue to magnify His name! I shall continue... I shall continue... I shall continue!

Father,

This day I come to you on behalf of my brothers and sisters and myself. I pray Father that you will help us to honor the commitments that we made to you. Help us to live and die unto you. help us to seek you in every area of our lives. Help us to seek you first. Help us to do your will, your will is what we want for our lives and we surrender our will unto you. Have YOUR way IN us Jesus... Use us for your glory! Teach us to pray, fast, study and die to this flesh daily and Lord if we should stumble please forgive us. Thank you Father for lifting us up and catching us before we fall and hit the ground. Thank you for teaching us how to minister your word to others. Thank you for teaching us how to die to this flesh. Thank you for guiding us in our daily lives. Thank you for being our Father, our Daddy, our God, our Savior, our Friend. Thank you for being the great I Am. Thank you Father for your many blessing that you bestow upon us each day. Thank you for your sacrifice. Thank you. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.

Hello Land O' Fam

Just randomness...

I hope all is well in each of your worlds this evening. I've had such a relaxing day that I don't even know how to take it... I needed to study which I haven't done yet ... truthfully speaking I don't really feel like using my brain today... I uploaded the photo's that I took of my girlfriend the bride a couple weeks ago that I told you about.. if you want to see the pictures they are HERE. They are proofs but if you do the slide show you can see them pretty well... since it's work I made them low res so that folks don't try to steal my pic's... I'm not worrying about her doing it but others that she may have looking may feel why order...

So today... I woke up when I felt like it and then didn't move... I just laid there... probably for at least another hour... no tv no radio no nothin... just peace and quiet. Then I turned on the TV and watched my shows that I'd taped... my Godmother called (mine not MommaV.. that's my brother's GM). I talked to her for a bit and that got me up out of the bed... because the only thing I'd gotten up to do was get a bowl of cereal. So I got up came to the computer played a few games of spider listened to Kiara "Kiki" Sheard & Fred Hammond and then I got the pictures proofed and uploaded. My mom came in and I went to go sit with her a while. She's been hurting real bad, the doctor told her that she has a herniated (sp?) disk and gave her bunches and bunches of pills that didn't really do much... I told her to go see a Chiropractor because the doctor's only option was a shot in her neck ... turns out she can't see a chiro due to insurance issues but she can see a acupuncturist (???) and/or a physical therapist... the acupuncturist must be a doctor though... hard to find so she has an appointment with a physical therapist Monday.

So then my young (17 yr old) cousin came by... we talked about her broken heart (and how it got that way) she had a boyfriend and they were really diggin' each other (that's young talk for they really liked each other ) He broke up with her because he said that she didn't have time for him... and she didn't. She told him that she had to focus on school and she was working and after school or work she had to study so not a lot of dating time and though he could come over she felt that she was sweaty and needed a shower so don't come and then she was tired so they couldn't talk on the phone for hours every night... he got frustrated and broke up with her. Now he won't talk to her and she doesn't understand why he's mad at her. They each think that the other has no "reason" to be mad... she cried while we were talking and its been three months and I told her that I know its frustrating crying over a boyfriend that broke up with you 3 months ago... mad at yourself for STILL thinking about him... trust me ... we continue on forever... i'm 32 and a certain man is STILL on my mind why hasn't he called ... oh wait this isn't about me... so I told her that all boys are stupid and that she didn't make a mistake but neither did he... they each just made choices on their priorities... and that each choice we make in life has a consequence. I explained to her that she needed a like-minded boyfriend... one who is into his studies and busy with extra-curricular activities because he'll understand what its like to just be busy and like someone but have ... priorities. I mean lets face it... he probably doesn't have people at home making him think about his future over his feelings... who knows... I explained his side to her and why he's hurt and that's why he's not speaking to her... I told her he had a girl he was diggin and he called her and she was always busy... never had time for him.. not tonight, not tonight... not tonight... well when?? He thought to himself and his boys probably told him... forget that girl you don't need her... and he agreed... because what he want at this time... his priority is sit in the face of the girl he likes and just be with her... that's not your priority... I told her that there will be a lot more "Eric's" ... she was encouraged...

Meanwhile... my phone STILL hasn't rang Patience is a virtue... I got enough virtue... I want a dang man!

GIVE ME THAT MAN'S NAME AND NUMBER!

Just kidding. I'll leave it to you and to God.

I feel for you, though. I have always hated those days. There's something good about the comfort of an existing, committed relationship ... but then, there's something good about the passion and uncertainty of a new relationship. I think, personally, the best thing about a new and uncertain relationship is the kiss.

okay... so OMG... I don't even know where to begin... so I'll just state it cause hey.. that's what I do...

I hung out after church today kicking back with my girl (pastor's sis) my Godbrother (pastors's son) and a few others and here and there and eventually my pastor and 1st lady for a while... just hanging and talking... BB (Big Bro) was talking to me about MisterMan.... 1st a preface of something I don't believe I shared... before MisterMan came into the picture my girlfriend who's been totally talking to God on high lately told me that my husband is near and that I need to pray more... I need to pray. Okay got it. Then that whole thing with MisterMan's comments the day of the photo shoot before the old biddies began their drama when he stated his wife had to be a "praying woman." I go visit a friends church the other week and they had a guest minister that side tracked talking about prayer... Fast forward to today and BB was preaching this morning in the early morning service and what did he preach about... yep... Prayer.. spcifically 'The Best Prayer'... he had 4 principles in 'The Best Prayer' and the conditions... about necessity, your relationship, can't remember one and that finally delay is not denial. He spoke about Daniel when he prayed and angel told him the Lord dispersed me on the 1st day but he was caught up in the heavelies fighting against the enemy that didn't want to let him pass... as he preached the end of that message tears were rolling... It was like God was speaking directly to me... He was like Daniel prayed for 7 days, then 14, but it wasn't until the 21st day something happened... Everything happens in God's time and its on time... so no matter how many days, weeks, months I pray just keep praying... PUSH - Pray Until Something Happens.

Okay.. I got that... I hear you LOUD and clear Lord... don't give up and stop because I "see" nothing... keep praying because I haven't "heard" anything either... got it... So I get home later in the afternoon... fix me some food and call my cousin in HotLanta (Atlanta) and while talking to her my dad comes in with company... 2 ladies from his church. I've met her before... very nice lady. I don't know if anyone will remember her but I had a run in with her before when I was engaged and she started telling me different accurate stuff as it related to me and my then fiance. So anyway... we're having a general round about discussion on God and ministry etc.. she told me that I was beautiful, simply glowing and what was different... so I told her about my current events... that I'm in school and working in social services... she asked me about my playwriting and all... we were just talking... well I brought up an example that involved me talking about MisterMan but I simply said I have this friend blah blah blah and made my comment.

Slicky she said hmmm... I'll comment to that and then I'm backing up. She began to tell me how I liked him and how that its good that we're starting off friends building a solid foundation. That he had a very hard stressful year last year, that he's super busy now... that I need to pray for him... on and on and on... I was like... ummm.. I said he's just my new friend at this point that I haven't heard from... and she was like um hm... yeah... so she went on talking about me as his wife and what its going to take and how much time I'm really going to be spending in prayer and on and on and so many other things... and all I could think was ... GOD are you SERIOUS! The lady... she's deep... she begins to tell me that he's what I prayed for and why she made that statement... then she was telling me about the statements that I've made to God in what I want out of my married relationship regarding ministry... and that right now he is hiding etc but don't worry about that because I'm going to pray him through ... again I say.... God are you KIDDING me!

So... in talking to my BB this afternoon he was saying how he thinks he's very interested yet he's also busy and innocently things get pushed to the side as you continue to accomplish whatever is before you and that when he calls me to him its going to seem like we were just out a few days ago though its been weeks or months... then he said but don't dwell on it just do you... focus on what you need to and let it come... He agreed with me though I couldn't explain why I won't call him I just know that I can't/not released nor desire too... he agreed... so anyway... I'm going to continue doing me (as I previously stated) but all this is just... freakin me out a little because well ... HELLO I haven't heard from MisterMan but I've heard and been declared too by so many others with reasons on why MisterMan hasen't called INCLUDING by a person that knows absolutely NOTHING about the situation... and there are things she said she wasn't released to tell me Oy Vey!

Here's to being me...

I can't imagine what you're going through, but I do know one thing and you already said it.....be patient! It'll happen, but you've got to allow God to do what He needs in you and in him, so when the time comes, there won't be any hindrances to stand in yours and his way.

Well dear, you really have no choice! In these last days and times we have to pray....even when we don't feel like it...although I think you already know that....

Hey all...

Its mighty funny how God works... I have an update of course but its just another "funny" of God... so I take heed to the word that keeps coming to me to pray and to pray for him... not about "us" but pray for him... like a covering... So anyway I heed that and this morning I pray... I go about my daily duties... my job is very consuming with more than enough to do that my mind need not wander though I allow it time to on a regular basis... so anyway... I'd setteled within me that I'm going to "do me" and pray for him and continue on on my path... as I'd been doing. So I'm at work today in the office and my work cell phone rings... rather odd... One reason is simply that pretty much only co-workers have the number and they all know I'm in the office and my boss is on vacation... second... I can't imagine who it could be because I think I've given the number to my Godsis one day but I'd think that she's try the office 1st or my private cell... so perplexed I reach in the drawer and see a number that I don't recognize...

Now... you know how you know a number but since you're not looking at it in a "familiar setting" it doesn't ring a bell... had that same # popped up in my cell I'd have "recognized it" anyway... it was MommaV I don't even recall giving her that #... so I'm like what on earth are you doing calling this # and she was like I got so many #'s by your name I don't know what is what and I just picked one... okay... So she asks me if I've heard from him. I replied no... she's like... oh... and then she tells me that when she saw him on Sunday he apologized for not returning her call and that he's in a dilemma. Which he probably told her about... anyway... she was like I think he's going crazy... he keeps worrying about things that he can't do anything about. So I was saying to her well Momma maybe the place for you in his life is that of a guide... mother type figure as he no longer has a mother or father on this earth. Maybe that's why you have that place in his life ... he needs to be told by someone who's "been there, done that" not to waste time worrying over things out of his control etc.. so she's like yeah... maybe so... then she was like... he driving me nuts.. I laughed and said that's what your children do... we drive you nuts.. its hard being a parent, surrogate or otherwise. So then she tells me I asked him had he talked to you and he said "no I've been meaning to call her. I'm going to call her." So she was like I waited a day to see if would call yesterday before I called you.

So... that's that... he's wanting to call... but dealing with things that he has no control over... and me being the type person that does NOT do that... I can take that to God in prayer for him... Worry is a needless thing we waste time with... it causes stress and so much more... and in the end.. all the worrying does absolutely nothing to help in the situation. So... on the one hand I can see why on top of all that he already has on his plate... with the church, the family, etc... why he needs someone to just literally keep him in prayer... understanding also why he is constantly "attacked" by the enemy... he wants to take out anyone that is about soul saving... so... my mission is clear. I'm focused and the reason that I find it funny was though God owes me no explanation... he gives you little chinks of info to ... keep you on the path... a little light at a time.. just enough to see a few feet ahead but having to continually trust him.

My girlfriends have definite thoughts about his comment to... simple yet it says a lot (to them)... so we'll see... I'll pray for him because I feel I've been assigned to (at least for this present time) I can't speak for the future... because hey... "we know in part"... but whatever, if anything comes of this ... I'll be doing me... and doing as God has instructed. I also find it funny that the moment my "focus" lined back up with God's direction things were revealed... not necessarily what I (my flesh) was looking for... like a call from him... because in all actuality... though I still haven't heard from him directly... I feel this... complete peace about the entire thing... Resting simply in the phrase "What God has for me, it is for me."

Lastly, my 2 girlfriends were like... his statement though short was a positive one... when asked about you his reply wasn't "for what" or something like that... it was more... I've been thinking of calling... but I want to converse with her and not just contact her and I stay so busy, it seems, that I wouldn't have time to converse but simply to con
