But, I …

That was me to my friend yesterday ENJOYING a piece of birthday cake at her house. As I sat down at the table to eat alone, I said let me see what God has to say to me through a kids’ devotional there. It was the perfect message, and I shared with my friend why: …

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT WAS A GOD WINK YESTERDAY?”
I asked my NEXT LEVEL friend today! I had debated whether to share with her a story about what happened to my mom and me on a trip when I was a little girl. I got the feeling from God to tell her about it. I explained that the moral I learned from the experience …

ARE YOU ENJOYING GOD?
“SMILE IN YOUR SOUL WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME (GOD).”That was my little message from Him a few minutes ago reading my meditation book. It’s actually what I’m learning to do more often, smile whenever I remember that His unseen Presence is ALWAYS with me. He has become “MY LOVE.” And I’m learning to RELAX …
THE PRAYER THAT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE:
God, I want a CLOSER walk with You. Amen. I think I said it back in 2010 or so, and to see how God has changed me from a sad, anxious, bitter, unforgiving, fretful, overweight, starving for love, crazy lady into a happy, loving, forgiving, peaceful and fearless warrior, has been nothing short of a …

“YOU’VE ALREADY BEGAN LEAVING YOUR LEGACY”
I said to this beautiful daughter, Ember, standing next to me. She was inaugurated recently as the FIRST head girl of a school that opened for the very FIRST time on her birthday, for the very FIRST year we relocated to Nigeria. My testimony is that God built this school especially for us, and I’m …

“I’M YOUR SLAVE…”
.., I work for food, shelter, and clothing!” I said to my hubby last night! Many years ago, I felt God saying to me if my marriage was to last, I needed to end all arguments about money. So, whatever, my hubby decides, I pretty much go along with him for peace sake. And believe …
