Changing Clothes

Now that my coaching career is over, I can re-focus my attention to what really matters--WRITING is my true passion.
First things first though--changing my clothes. For the longest time, I've been cloaked with a spirit of heaviness. I've been smothered by financial changes, workplace drama, family matters, and personal insecurities. The last eighteen months has only been a transitional period and change is never easy. I'm changing~my world is changing too. So either I change or get pummelled along the way.
I am removing the cloak of heaviness to adorn the garment of praise. This is how it should be done...

Feels Like Another One...

I remember this time 2009, I was running around trying to find a doctor, a lawyer, and a new car. This year, 2010, I start it off with the flu. Will the end justify the means? It will if God is up in through...
Most times when you are going through your go-through, you never stop to realize that this is all a pruning process. A stage for you to grow whichever way you choose. Just keep in mind, if you do not learn the lesson the first time, you will ultimately have to go through the lesson again~until you get the story right.
So learn the lesson while you are in class. That way you do not have to repeat the lesson and miss time going forward because you are going around. Yep, the beginning of 2010 feels like another one--one more process to becoming the woman God wants. Step-by-step and Glory-By-Glory!!! That is how He does His thing.
Just remember when you are going through hell, make sure you keep going...

New Year's Priorities

I still cannot believe 2009 is gone and 2010 is here. Where did the year go? I know it's time I can never get back. Because of that fact, I know I need to make some changes.
There were several meaningful events for me in 2009, good and bad. With the onset of 2010, I have decided to have 2010 priorities--not resolutions. Resolutions seems so final, whereas priorities feel more flexible. Priorities change. Resolutions need to be resolved--like a permanent situation. Priorities...can change and usually do.
As we grow and become better than we were yesterday, we would hope that our values and beliefs change with us. And they should. So instead of having resolutions that make us feel like failures when they are not resolved, let's have priorities which will change as we do. Won't you join me?

Does God read blogs?

I was just wondering---have you and God ever had this conversation...

US: Sometimes, I feel like giving up. I feel like my best just ain't good enough. Lord, if you hear me, I'm calling You. I mean, do You see? Do You even care all about what I am going through.

That's when He says...

The Lord: One more day. Just take one more step. I'm preparing you for Myself. I'm getting you ready. When you cannot hear my voice or think I am not speaking to you, please just trust my plan. I am the Lord. I am YOUR Lord. I see you, and yes, I understand. Every trial, every burden, every problem, every situation, every issue---I see what you are going through. You are my child and I love you. I see you. And yes, I understand.

Just wanted to make sure I was not alone in this faith fight. Even Smokie Norful wrote a song about it and I listen to it when I need to be reminded: HE KNOWS...
