There has been times in my past that I have carried grudges, pain and hurt so close to my heart, that I was unable to function. When I look back at those days I cringe at the thought of how much time and energy I wasted not allowing myself to FORGIVE. When I gave my life to Christ I made it a priority to RELEASE ALL THE PAIN I carried for all those years. During my prayer times I realized that if I was to ever have a REAL ANOINTING, that I would have to mend all areas of FORGIVENESS in my life.   It started with myself. I wanted everyone to know that when you take the time and forgive someone that has caused you PAIN, it frees you and it gives you PEACE OF MIND. You can then slowly begin to transcend your hurt and get to a place in your heart and mind where the hurt is no longer HOLDING YOU BACK. Fill your days with joy and let the anger and frustrations go so that you can live the life that is meant for you. My prayer for everyone who comes...

ME AND MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER LYRIC COMBING MY DAUGHTER LYRICS HAIR HAS BECOME A LESSON OF LOVE ~ ORIGINALLY POSTED AUGUST 2011 ~ I Remember the day our little Lyric was born, She looked up at me and let out the loudest scream I have ever heard...WOW, I DID NOT KNOW she would still be screaming 15 years later. The very FIRST TIME I COMBED MY DAUGHTER'S HAIR I thought, this is going to be a breeze. I mean I use to comb my dolls hair, How hard could it really be? My daughter Lyric has very kinky thick hair. Little did I know with each passing year her hair would grow and develop into a life of its own.(smile) Every morning I would use A spray bottle with water, then I would move on to the detangler, then I would start my daily workout of combing through her thick hair. I would always try to be as gentle as I possibly could... Then the screams. Remember when I told you she screamed as a baby..Well, these were the kind of screams that made my heart ache. ...

                THIS IS A PICTURE OF MY SON ELIJAH IN 1992 I REMEMBER THE DAY THAT MY SON ELIJAH WAS BORN. I REMEMBER IT SO CLEARLY THAT  I CAN STILL SMELL HIS SWEET SKIN AS THE NURSE HANDED HIM TO ME. THAT WAS ALMOST 20 YEARS AGO AND I STILL FEEL THAT SAME JOY IN MY HEART FOR MY BABY BOY. I HAVE TO REMIND MYSELF THAT HE IS NO LONGER A BABY BUT IS NOW BECOMING A MAN. ME AND MY SON ELIJAH IN FLORIDA I AM THE MOTHER OF 3 KIDS. I HAVE 1 DAUGHTER AND 2 BOYS AND MY 20 YEAR OLD SON ELIJAH IS BECOMING A YOUNG MAN.. AS HIS MOM I HAVE A CRUCIAL ROLE IN PREPARING HIM TO BE THE MAN THAT GOD WANTS HIM TO BE.  I NEVER UNDERESTIMATE MY INFLUENCE IN HIS LIFE. I AM HIS MOTHER AND HIS TEACHER... IT IS MY JOB AS HIS MOTHER, TO TEACH HIM HOW TO MAKE SMART CHOICES... I HAVE TO KEEP TELLING HIM JUST HOW WONDERFUL HE IS SO THAT HE KNOWS IT, FEELS IT AND IS AWARE OF MY LOVE. BEING...

ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PRESENT?   I am first to admit that living in the past was something I did on a regular. I was stuck and did not know how to move forward...Now in my life I am TRULY BLESSED... I am blessed because I no longer dwell in the past. thank you Father for quieting me and my negativity, so that I could hear your plan for me.   So grateful for God and his timing...God gives us permission to forget our past and equips us with the understanding to live in our present.   ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PRESENT?    I will never forget the things which I have gone through, those events have shaped me into who I am today. I have NO REGRETS today! If you remember, King David had many regrets. His past was full of sins and secrets, but he discovered the awesomeness of God’s Love!   So when your past tries to haunt you, tries to surface and take you back to that dark place, simply introduce all your troubles to Jesus.   STAY...

DOES IT SEEM AS IF NOTHING IS GOING IN YOUR FAVOR! Know that you are never alone, and that God is fully aware of every trial, issue, and tragedy you face. The battle was never yours in the first place...It’s the Lord’s, and it’s already won. Just keep on praying....Prayer keeps you aware of the loving arms of our Lord and cuts a path to victory...YES VICTORY.. Prayer is so simple and so powerful…            BREATHE......     ...
