Ambition Cont'd

It's been a week of trials, however, I am determined to overcome them. I had a severe reaction to something (Only God knows what) that myself nor the doctors were able to figure out what caused my face to swell beyong recognition. After I finished the meds, which took about two weeks; I developed a severe sore throat in which I could not even swallow-------after a few home remedies, I thought it would go away, but NOT! A severe cold developed that is now FINALLY going away. At the moment just a few coughs and sniffles remain! :)  It feels good to FEEL GOOD! I tell you the devil is busy, but not lasting!




Whereas, I can still find the good in life, get back on track and be "Ambitious" about promoting women. Several wonderful events will be coming ladies so please check back often. With God's help, there is going to be:

A concert
A benefit event to raise money and encourage viewers and the attendees of the event to donate tampons, pads, or anything that women in Ethiopia could use for their menstruation cycle (more will be posted that will give you information of the event and about the women).
Craft conference that will involve talented women of all ages,  and ethnic backgrounds.

Hope everyone has a Glorious week!

God Bless you all and look forward to sharing with you what God is doing in our ministry!

Do You REALLY Know?

I was in JC Penney a few years ago just browsing and this woman passed me calling a little girl who was in the shoe section to come on, she was ready to leave. The little girl quickly grabbed a specific pair of shoes and walked over to her, pleading for the shoes. Well being social, I commented they were very cute shoes and would look good on her. The Grandmother proceeded with, “She has more than enough shoes at home and although they are cute, we are not buying them”. The little girl begged for a short while and realized she was not going to win this battle, so the shoes went back to the shoe department. As the little girl was leaving, her Grandmother began telling me how she provides for the child quite often and her daughter (the child's Mother) do not have a good relationship. She badly berated her daughter to the point I said in my mind, “God should I pray for this woman”; because from listening to her story, I felt the relationship could not continue is this manner, an...

# 7 Objectives (n) - something your working towards Increase! ---Hmmm! Increase in what? I'm not sure what you mean by increase! Increase in finances maybe ~ or increase in knowledge ~ or perhaps you mean increase in healthy friendships!  All of these are attainable; however, they are not accomplished without work on our part to obtain them ~ and keep them. Maybe you want to increase your household! Uh Oh! (Big Smile) ~ VUALA ~ here's your baby! Wow that would be wonderful if it worked out that way, but we know better huh?  How many of you have really sat down with a goal in mind and established a step by step plan to reach that goal? I have never done that, I have always flown by the seat of my pants and they would always work out! NOW? It's not that easy. I have had to think things through more, pray about them and believe they will happen!  What I mean by that is, I became independent of Christ (sure of my own works), instead of dependent (leaning totally ...

# 8 Self-Respect (n) - proper pride; dignity Oh yes, I did not do well in Business Law. To be honest, I could have cared less about court cases, what the law says about landlord rights, tenant rights, labor law rights, etc. After all, I had a home, a full time job (that at the time, I had no intention of leaving), and I was married with children. I decided to go back to college after the kids were school age, to better my life and theirs~so I thought! I was working third shift, 40 hours a week; and juggling Motherhood and being a wife. Well - all of that together did not mix well at all!  Of course I was tired. In between classes, I would go to the student lounge and sleep ~ there was also times I would doze while driving their and back home. One day while driving home, I was so sleepy, I just could not keep my eyes open. However, when I did realize I had fallen asleep,  I was heading towards the median on a four lane highway. You talk about being scared straight. I kn...
