HOLY FRIDAY!

In the Old Testament, it was prophesied “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole”. Isaiah 53:5 AMP


No one has greater love [no one has shown stronger affection] than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends. John 13:15 AMP

Today is a day to reflect and fully understand why Jesus died on the cross for all of us. However, within those three days, things were going on in the spiritual world that we read about in the word, but have no knowledge of how powerful His love was and still is for us (who believe) to conquer Heaven and Hell so you have protection from Satan to live a life filled with good health, a loving family, a home that is protected from the storms nature brings, and favor and blessings everywhere you go!


Pastor Creflo Dollar was speaking on how we are saved by Grace and there is nothing we can do to earn it or give it back ~ it’s free. He gave a member of his congregation a gift she was not expecting. She looked at him in surprise and he walked away. She sat there in amazement and Pastor Dollar asked her to open it up. She did and still had a puzzled look on her face! He said,”I know you are wondering why I gave you that gift and I also know you don’t have anything to give back to me”. She shook her head no and Pastor Dollar went on to the podium and said, “I just demonstrated “Grace”. It’s a free gift that you are not able to repay!



On Easter Sunday I pray many of you are filled with Thanksgiving and Love for our Savior! Why? Because He loved you first!

Appetizer # 6 - Dreams

Appetizer #6 Dreams - Images in the mind For years, I would have the same dream of entering a beautiful mansion and I could remember being awestruck of how beautiful it was. I would marvel at the quality of its craftsmanship.  I would slowly walk down the beautiful marble staircase into the basement.  Once I got to the bottom of the stairs, there was this black door that had a little window on it. Imagine going into a dungeon and the only way anyone could see out was through this peep hole and vice versa.  When I went to open the door, an evil spirit would come near me and I would wake up immediately! As I mentioned this dream went on for years, until I realized that it was the devil. As soon as I confronted him that he will no longer allow me to live in fear of God's blessings and that he had no power over me either, the dream stopped immediately. I know that my ways are not God's ways and my thoughts are not God's thoughts, but to live a life filled with God's ...

It's Dusty in Here!

Yes ma’am----It’s time to clean house! Nope not that kind of house cleaning~ I’m talking about the junk we fill our minds with - - - such as:  worry, doubt, fear, anger, hate, resentment, unforgiveness, selfishness, hurtful words, lust, and irresponsibility! Whew Wee, with all of that dust and dirt in there, I don’t think I’ll be able to have a relaxing visit with you. Maybe, I’ll come back another day, however; don’t hesitate to ask for help! I’d be glad to assist you. Just let me know in what area you need help with. I won’t stand over you or force you do all of the cleaning in one day – It’ll probably take a while; as you can see it’s accumulated quite a mess? Just an FYI ~ dirt and dust settles deep in cracks and crevices; so don’t lose the enthusiasm! I have the perfect tool to help also! My number one tool is the Word! Girl, I use it faithfully, and believe me, it CLEANS HOUSE! You can use it for everything: c leaning worry, cleaning doubt, cleaning fear and s...

Appetizer # 2 -Mental Attitude ~ a state of feeling or mind about a person or situation WOW! I know that I have had some bad attitudes in situations that were not necessary to even entertain. I can recall one of my many times I developed an attitude before I allowed myself a good attitude about going to a community dance in my hometown. I just knew it was going to be boring and the people that were going to be there, I had nothing in common with (or I thought),  many of them there were not my age; and I did not have anything nice to wear, I needed to make sure my children were sleep first, and on and on and on - -  "Geez" I kept coming up with excuse, after excuse, after excuse!! My negative attitude about going to this dance could have kept me - - -- well, what many of us pass up - - - it's called "living"; IF, I would not have regrouped and decided to go anyway.  I found a babysitter, obviously found something to wear with a pair of my many fabulous sho...
