The Special Times

It's always worth it to take time for your family! I have recently learned with such a busy schedule how truly important it is to make time for family! Corban & I had a mommy/buddy day on Friday & Saturday! It was so refreshing!! I love my boys & my husband & I will work twice as hard everyday to make time for just us! Enjoy your week!

Words...

Say what you mean and mean what you say! Do what you intend and intend what you do! I am constantly amazed at the world and it's power to mold a person! We are all given the opportunity to have God mold our life and he has all the power, but we do not always lean on him when we should. Sometimes we use the excuse "I had to get it off my chest" or "I just needed someone to talk to" or "that's just me, you'll get use to it"..... These are the times we should talk to God before anyone. God will check your spirit & it will ensure you don't say or write anything you may later regret. It's not worth it to have these excuses if it truly hurts someone or in any way negatively affects their spirit.  I for one have learned more in the past 5 years than in my entire life. You may receive forgiveness for something but you can never erase the damage it does. Why do we risk hurting someone or altering their relationship with not only us but God?...

Blessings

Faith Tabernacle started reading Luke 6:38 every service before we receive the offering sometime in 2011. For those of you not familiar with this scripture it says; "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. (Luke 6:38 KJV)" What a verse & what a promise that God has given us! He daily blesses me yet I find myself complaining & feeling stressed! I know we all do it but the next time you find yourself stressed or complaining of all you don't have, think of all that you do have & start with thanking him for another day of life! Today I opened my Georgia Power Bill & went to get my checkbook when I noticed the stub showed my amount due was "$0.00" so me being a bit negative (yes I know you've never been there) :) I called & the representative says "yes ma...

A NEW Look For A NEW Me

So, I was recently blogging only about my boys but about 6 months ago My husband & I started to transition into a new chapter of our life! I thought how awesome would it be if I used my blog to not only share my boys with you, but share my entire life which is very fast paced (thank goodness for mobile blogger)!! I will be continuously updating as I'm in the building stages of this new blog page. I hope I can have many followers & reach your heart with my words.  Last year was a crazy whirlwind in my life. My 4 year old started pre k & a month later we had a new baby boy... Logan who proves to be more & more like his daddy (hyper) every day! Then in November my husband who was serving as the District Youth Secretary & Pastoral Assistant to his Grandfather at Faith Tabernacle United Pentecostal Church, told me we would be voted on as Pastor of the church! My husbands grandfather (Dr. J.A. Patterson) began Faith Tabernacle Church in Conyers 31 years ago so y...
