Life

In the past four days, I have been to two funerals. One was a 92 1/2 year old cousin. The other was a 46 year old friend. Life has meaning. Each life counts.

Live life with purpose. Don't take others for granted. Try to be kind to those who are with you. Share your life with others.

May the Spirit of the Lord guide our day. May we value one another. May we appreciate what others do for us.

Amen.

Questions of What? When...

What to say when ask some thing you don't what to share?
Be quiet? Say no comments...

When those who are not in you life as much, why are others wanting to know things when something in life throws a curve?

Are they meddling? Or are they sincere? What's the motive?

Why don't some people speak at time? But when something comes up they come into your life asking questions as though you were best of friends?

LIFE Changes

Today, I heard some news that has not been made public yet. I am waiting for the news announced. In seasons of life we have to go on with life.

Life has changes. We must change in life when they come. We should keep on going when we did not what to do next.

May the Lord give us wisdom to do what we don't know what to do. May we see changes as a new level in live. May what we do have meaning and purpose.

Last Sunday of April

I had a wonderful day today. I declare that it's a brand new beginning for me. Some of the old things have passed away, new things have come forth.

I have been sensing a change throughout this April month. Every April is different for me since the past eight years. April is the month of changes and moving on in life.

Indeed this April is A Brand New Year for me. The cycle of seven has been completed. Now this 8Th year has a new beginning for me. I have had some changes inside of me.

There were some changes that came that I did not see coming. I have been adjusting to those changes. I had made some decisions to keep on keeping on.

I am not letting these changes shake me. I believe that God is with me. I am thankful that God has rescued me from myself.

There were some things that I was doing that was "infecting" my relationship with Him. Infecting might not be the right word. Or should I say...this was leading me down the wrong path.

I was going in a way that I should not have been going. I have to use better judgements in the future. I have learned my lesson.

I have withdrawn from that pursue. I am being quiet and at rest in the Lord. I was blinded by whatever that was. I was not aware of what was going on.

I have repented of my doings. I believe that God has forgiven me. I am walking in the new light of things. I am still on the road with Jesus.

I have to get use to the changes. I don't want to return to where I was headed. It's a shame at times to see where I was headed. But I need not to dwell on that.

I am forgiven. God is for me. GOD is with me. God is on my side.

I am thankful that God will never leave me. I am thankful that God will not forsake me. I am thankful that I am valuable to God.

May the Holy Spirit continue to guide my path into where GOD wants me to go. Lead me on Holy Spirit. Help me to do what God wants me to do. Not my will but Your will be done LORD.

Changes In Blogging

I have been thinking about how to blog for a season. I thought about taking Fridays off from my computer. I fast on Fridays. One of my spiritual disciplines.

I thought to have a complete fast on my computer on Fridays. I am always wanting to get on my computer. It is something that I enjoy doing.

Then again I am seeking God for some things in my life. I decided to discipline myself on Fridays on my computer to seek God on some matters concerning me.

Yesterday was the first time I had not been on my computer in such a long time. I cannot remember when the last Friday that I have missed. I wanted to post yesterday.

Friday the 25Th was a special day. Why did not post on my special day? I had some business to talk to God about. I was serious.

I sense that I do need some changes in blogging. I have posted over 860 blogs on my main blog site in about eighteen months. I am not including this blog site.

I plan to post in advance on my main blog site. I have a daily special day section that I have. So I will post them a day ahead of time.

May the Lord guide us to blog. May we good to share with our viewers. May we be creative in our doings.

A Month Here

It has been a month since I came to this blogger.com. I did not realized it til yesterday. I post this blog on Saturday.

What a month of blogging. I still don't know what to post on this site. I don't want to copy from my main blog.

I was not on my computer on the 25th of April.

Moving On Along

It has been a long week. On Tuesday, I did not know what day it was. I had to think. I lost track of the days.

I am back on track. I am a bit tried. I have not been sleeping. The storms or some thing has been keeping me up at nights.

This week has been a blessings. I will have the strength to continue. I need to go to bed earlier. I need my rest.

May I laid down in peace and sleep.

A Hail Storm

We had an hail storm today. I did not know what was going on. I was on my computer when I heard some noses.

I thought that it was thundering. I had a time getting off my computer. Things were so slow while I was on it. Maybe the storm was doing it.

I made it off my computer and went into kitchen and heard something hitting the roof. So I went to look out the window.

As I was pulling back the curtain, I said Oh Lord Jesus! Or was it Oh my Lord. But anyway, the streets were filled with water. It looked like we were in a mini flood.

The hail was coming down so fast it looked like snow on the grass. As I was looking on our porch, I saw the hail bouncing off the ground.

I have never seen anythings like this before. I watch on to this happening for about 10 or 15 minutes. It was so strange.

I thought about recording what was going on. But I did not want to miss out on what my eyes were witnessing. It was amazing.

I saw the water pushing the trash down the streets. The water was so strong, it pushed small rocks into the streets. There were leaves there as well.

I thought the we were going to have a thunderstorm. Rain was in the forecast. But Hail! I was surprised.

May the Lord guide us through the surprises that come our way. May see be more prepared for the storms ahead. May we see the good of what we go through.

New Day Begins

It is a new day. I have been writing answers to questions on my other weblog. I have about 10 more questions to do by my next Tuesday's goal.

I have a clearer mind set now. Ever since I went on that spiritual retreat last week. I can think a little bit better. Some things don't bother me as much.

I do believe that I am in a new season. In a new sphere so to speak. There is a newness about what I am doing.

I don't have much trouble in what to blog. There are ideas that come to me. I jot some of them down. Later, I try to develop what I wrote down.

May that Spirit of the LORD guide me in what I should do with is weblog.

Changed Other Blog User Name

It is official. I changed my user name on my main weblog. I was iffy iffy to change it. But I thought about it for a while. I took a step of faith.

I am on a new road. I have a brand new beginning. There are things with the old username that will disappear from my thoughts.

May God use changes in our lives to bring more into our lives. May we grow and change in the changes that come. May God direct our ways as we go about our days.

Sunday, April 20, 2008

New Level

I sense that I am at a new level in my walk with God. I am going to change me username on my main blog site next Monday.

I want a change. I am at a new level. I sense a change is needed.

May God guide us in what season that we are in. May we see that change is good for us. May we change with the changes.

On A New Road

I am looking forward to what's ahead. I sense that I am on a new road. There has been something in the spirit.

I don't know what it is. I just have a new attitude about some things. There is peace. Peace that is flowing. It is bringing me restoration.

Friday night Church was AWESOME. I felt the presence of the LORD very strongly. God is moving in our midst as we continue to gather together.

My spiritual retreat has been great. I am learning new things. I am being refreshed and renewed in my thinking. I sense a difference.

May the Lord continue allow us to see new things. May we know to take spiritual retreats. May we come up higher in our spiritual walk with God.

My Computer

When the rain comes at times, I have trouble getting on my computer. I have to check the weather. I post daily on my main blog.

I have not missed too many days blogging on that blog. There was a time when I changed my server. I missed days. Also when we had the BIG Ice STORM of 2007.

I like being on my computer. Recently I have been disciplining myself to how long to be on my computer. I am learning to do other things in a new way.

May the LORD continues to guide my days. May I learn to do some more new things as I am in disciplining my way. May each day be a new beginning for me.

Retreat Continues

I am learning some new things while on my retreat. My mind has been opened. There is peace coming to me.

It is how I have been speaking and thinking about some thing. I need to change my attitude. I need to be speaking blessings over my life each and every day.

I am off to a new season. Life is too short to be letting pass by. I need to be more disciplined in my daily life.

Change ain't change until you change.
So by the grace and mercy God,
May He help me change how I have been doing things.
May I continue on my spiritual retreat.
May I be restored and refreshed.

Spiritual Retreat

I am on my retreat. I have been reading Become A Better You By Pastor Joel Osteen. I has been a challenge for me to read this book.

There are about 377 pages. I have been getting a lot out of this book. There are things that I knew about but did not take in consideration the affect on what words can do to us.

Even the things that are past down from us in our family bloodline. This book has ministered to me. My eyes have opened up.

I thank God that I was in this season to read this book. I believe that I was lead to read this book. I have come up higher in my thinking.

May I continue to read more books. May the Spirit of the Lord guide me to which books to read. May what I read transform my thinking.

In A Different Sphere

I was in the Upper Room last Friday evening. The Upper Room is a Prayer and Worship Chapel at Word of Life Church. I was spending some time there.

I was reading and praying while my stay there. Meanwhile I had some thoughts come to me. The word sphere and jurisdiction came to me.

I have been thinking about it. There is a region that each of us live in. The world what we communicate with people. We have our jurisdictions and boundaries.

We can only communicate with those who are willing to speak and bring feedback to us. We cannot go beyond our boundaries in conversation. We can offend others.

I have to think on this. We have disagreements with people. Perhaps that is way some back off from speaking to one another. We have our own sphere.

Our sphere is were we are in our world. The people the contacts and so forth. Those who are in our day to day life. If we get off of our sphere with those who cross over into ours there could not some things that will not work.

Some are friendly and some come and go. They are just passing by on their way to where they are going. We encounter many people in our lives. Some are for a season.

I will have to come back to this blog

New Beginnings: Set Ahead

I have been sensing new beginnings. I don't know what is a head for me. But I believe that the Lord is with me.

In time of change, I have to go with change. I have been cleaning up some these past weeks. I have been finding things that I did not know that I had.

There are some things that I have missed place. I know where it is now. It takes times to clean and rearrange things.

On my new beginning, my thoughts have changed. There are new ways of doing things new. I am having to change how I do some things. I have to get use to that.

In life there are things that come along that I have to rethink about. Things that need to be dealt with. I am making changes in what is needed the best way that I can.

Journey in life is a challenge. Without the help of the Holy Spirit , I don't know what I would be doing. I thank God that I have Him as a guide.

May the Lord guide my every day. May I see the good of what is set before me. May God bless those who I come in contact with. Amen.

Gifts From Birthday

I thought to record what I received from my birthday. I got 7 cards. One had 10 dollars in it. Another had a scarf.

I had a birthday dinner on the 8Th. A birthday breakfast on the 10Th of April. Other items that I received were a candle, pen, hand wash, note pad with pen, envelope paper set for writing, a journal, some jewelry, perfume.

This a good combination. I am thankful what I received. There was a friend Today in church that ask me how did my birthday go. I told her that I survived. She wish me a Happy New Year.

I will conclude my speaking of my birthday for the year. I believe that I will have one more birthday card coming in the mail in May. There is a ministry that sends me a card every year. However it is about a month last. Well, it is the thought that counts.

Another year is being birth in me.
May I bring what is in me outwardly for the glory of God.

Saturday, April 12, 2008

A Decision

I have made that decision on not to announce my birthdays in the future on my other blog sites or to the people who are around me. It is too much to deal with. I think that the least that people know about some of my personal life may be for the better.

I will quietly celebrate my birthday with those in my circle of friends. As the day draws near, I plan on not mentioning my B-Day to anyone. Some of my friends and family members will remember. That will be a blessing.

So, I will not be as disappointed in the future.
May the peace of God be with me.
May I see the value in the blessing from each day as they come.
May I explore life in a new way.
May I see all that God has for me as I continue to journey in this life.
Amen!

The Weekend

I plan to turn off my computer by 6:30 am for a season. Fasting computer on Fridays for a while. I plan to get back on during the afternoon on Saturday. I plan to fast some other things as well.

I want to have a peaceful Friday each week for a season. This will be a challenge for me. I have done this before. There are benefits in doing so.

Friday Fast, may I experience more of God. May may journey be an adventure that I have not been on. May I discipline myself to what I need to do.

Rethinking Some Things

I am in a new season. Some things have changed. I need to rethink some of the things that I have been doing.

Am I on the right path? What Am I needing to do NOW? What? Keep believing.

Yeah, when things come suddenly, there seems to be a shock. There are some things that take on new meaning. What should you do?

Keep believing that God will guide you. He will never leave you are forsake you. People may forsake you. But God will never forsake you are leave you.

Those words are so comforting to hear. God will never leave me nor forsake me. God is so GREAT.

So I am on a new road. What is ahead of me? Will I guess I am going to have to keep moving to see what is ahead of me.

I will keep believing that I am on the right road. If not God will show me which way to turn. What way not to go. And which way is for me.

This week have been a lesson for me. Indeed a learning experience. I have seen some things that I have not seen before.

It is like I am alone. But I am not. I am on this journey with wonder of what is next. I am keeping my focus on Jesus. He is there with me whether I sense Him or not.

Rethinking some things will take some time. I need to clear my head of some things. I have to have a good attitude in what to do next.

Father God,
Forgive me of wrong thinking. And for the things that I should not be doing. Help me forgive myself of things that should not be. Guide me on the path that is before me.

Lord,
You are my Shepherd. Teach me Your ways. Guide me all of my day. Lead me in the way that I should go. I thank You that You will never forsake me.

I pray that I will find the way that is there for me to follow. I thank You for this week and what is to follow. I thank You, Father God for this LIFE in Jesus' name Amen.

Celebration Continues

One of my friends sung Happy Belated Birthday to me this morning. We went to Solomon's Porch. My birthday breakfast included; A Cinnamon Roll and Orange Juice. I thank God for my friend.

I am still receiving Happy Belated Greetings as well. Two brothers called yesterday. One had a dream about our mother. My brother ask his wife, Is today April the 8Th? She said yes. Who's birthday is it?

Then another brother called. He asked how did my birthday go? I said, OK! I have been preparing myself for more belated birthday greeting this weekend as well.

It is more special to here Happy Birthday on the actually day. My celebration continues. April is a month of New Beginnings for me.

Brand New Things are birth in the month of April.

Some Thoughts: On This Weblog

I have been thinking. On how I might be using this site. Maybe as a reflections site. There will be some things that I will not say on my others weblog.

It will be here that I can freely express my thoughts. Since not to many people know that I have this site, I will not have many comments. But there well be on lookers.

May be this is my private weblog. I will not know who is looking on. But this site is public to those who can get in.

My Journey Continues.

Newness of Some Things

It has been over 24 hours since my birthday. I made it to another year of wisdom. That is what I am seeing as my years go by.

There were some disappointments. Yeah, there were some who forgot. But there were some who sent their Belated Birthday Greetings. There may be more some Belated Greeting this weekend.

I have been aware of some things as life goes on. I am making adjustments. There are things that need to change. I need to go on with those changes.

Life can be a challenge. But challenges do come with life. That is how life is. We do need others in our lives to help us grow and change.

But God is the only one who can change us. We cannot even change ourselves. Let alone others trying to change us.

Life is beautiful in Him who created life though Jesus Christ.
May I and others learn to live life as God created life for us to live.
May we see the fullness of life with the eyes of faith.
May we be a blessing to those who are in our lives.

New Beginnings

I am off to new beginnings. I don't know where I am headed. But, I believe that the Lord is with me.

It has been a very long day. There were some who I thought would remember my birthday but, they did not. I have to get over that.

I need to have the attitude that those who will remember my birthday will. As for those who cannot or just plan forget, won't remember it. I need to learn to keep celebrating my birthdays.

I am planning on not making a BIG DEAL out of my birthdays in the future. It is so much of a disappointment. Especially when those who I thought would remember, don't. This brings a let down.

I am needing to change my focus for my future birthdays and other celebrations in life. I know that we should share our lives with others. But when our special days come and what we shared with others is forgotten, what is there to do?

Yes, we need to Forgiven them. Yes, we need to Forget about it. Yes we should move on with our lives.

I know this day is not over. But I will see by the end of this day who remembered my birthday. Those who really forgot, may say something on the next coming days. And for those who completely missed my birthday will let it go by as usual.

My Birthday Day!

I have been celebrating my birthday. I had a thought came to me. I thought that it was silly. But no one else will do it.

I sent myself 12 roses. I always wanted some roses on my birthday. So I acted on what I wanted.

It may have sounded silly to send myself some roses. But you know what? I enjoyed it.

Now one of my brothers wondering who sent them to me. I will let him keep wondering. The card reads: Happy Birthday To A Wonderful Gal Hope It's A Great One!!! Love, Guess Who!!!

It is the thought of receiving roses delivered to my door that make it special. I received those rose with all joy. The roses are all different colors. They look like a rainbow.

Day 98 And New Year's Eve

I have been counting down the hours til my birthday. I was actually born on a Monday the 98Th Day. That is today. But since this year is leap year, I have to wait one more day.

I have been having fun. I am excited. In five years things will be different. A lot of things being new.

I cannot imagine what it will be like.

New Year Coming

I am turning another year wisdom on Tuesday. Another year has passed by. Last year my day was on Easter Sunday.

I had a great time in church with my friends who know that it was my day. I thank God for my friends. They are have be a blessing to me.

New Adventure

Off into a new adventure. It has been a great day. Exploring new things as I am going along in life.

What shall I Do Next? God is so good to me. I have a lot to live for on my journey of transformation.

What To Blog On This Weblog?

I need to start to think what can I use this weblog for? Perhaps for reflections from my other Weblogs. Things that I will not post over at my other blogs.

I have not figured out how to combine this blog with my other main blog. I could do that but. HOW?

My journey of transformation in the season of changes continues.

Awarness

I have been visiting some of my friends web logs this week. There have been some that have not posted in a while. I left a comment on some of their sites.

In church we are on the King's HIGHWAY: On the Road of the COMMUNITY. I thought for the time that we are on this road to go and visit some of my friends in my blog community.

Most of them make little comments on my other site. Just a few faithful friends stop by to encourage and brighten my days. I am thankful for them.

God has blessed me with wonderful friends that care enough to come and visit my weblog. Not too many people know about this site that I have.

This one is more private than my other one. I have more to say on that site. I will use this site to reflect on some things.

This weblog will be different than my other 2. There is a different atmosphere here. Not to many people know me here. I will survive.

Faith Day '08

As I reflect back over April 1st, I call this day FAITH Day. Eight years ago my mother passed away. She is with the Lord.

My life changed that day. God gave me strength that day. I had faith that I did not know that I had. I had peace.

It has been eight years. I am still going strong. God is with me. I am growing in the LORD. When things come in life, changes come with it. Some things come by surprises. God brings us through the tough times in our lives. We have go to keep on keeping on.
