A Day To Pray - A Day To Refocus


"I Get On My Knees"
There are days when I feel the best of me is ready to begin
Then they're days when I feel i'm letting go and soaring on the wind
Cause i've learned in laughter or in pain how to survive

I get on my knees, I get on my knees
There I am before the love that changes me
See I don't know how but there's power when i'm on my knees

I can be in a crowd or by myself or almost anywhere
When I feel there's a need to talk with God, he is Emmanuel
When I close my eyes, no darkness there
There's only light

I get on my knees, I get on my knees
There I am before the love that changes me
See I don't know how but there's power in the blue skies, in the midnight
When i'm on my knees

There is a sweet presence I feel every time I hear this song. I was able to relate and let these words heal a broken place at a young age. Even now if I need to be reminded that I have a friend who will love at all times and never let me down... I can listen and know where to find Him. 

There are days we feel alone. There are days we feel broken. There are days we feel all hope is gone. 

There is never a day when this should define our outcome. 


No matter what you're going through, don't let it keep you down. Be encouraged that God has it all under control. The enemy comes against me just like the next person but I refuse to let it control me or who I want to be. Don't allow the actions, attitudes or responses from other people get you down or be the cause of negative change in you.
 We can't control someone else but we can control what we do. I am responsible for me and you are responsible for you! 

Learn to LOVE God more than anything else! He's the only one that will listen before getting defensive. Be there to comfort you after you turned your back on Him. Hold you tight instead of saying "I told you so". God is everything! He is more than I deserve and when I am alone... He is right by my side reminding me that I am worth more than rubies! 

Never let anyone make you feel inferior just because they are too tired to give their time!
 Don't allow your joy to be taken or your worth to be tarnished by someone else's distractions. 

Every time the devil tries to take away all that you've fought to build in your life... Get on your knees and remind him "I AM A CHILD OF THE KING"! 

I love you always for reading!! I write to inspire, encourage & hopefully assist you in making your life all that it was designed to be!

Fathomless Billows Of Love

On this day 12 years ago I lost my brother. I remember the sound of the voice on the other side of the phone telling us to come to the hospital. I remember being cold. I remember the sounds of the chaos around me. I remember the chair I sat in as I watched my mom try to be strong. I remember so many little details but mainly I remember the giant hole it left in my heart! Nothing can ever separate us from [God's]  love . ... I remember singing  Peace, peace, wonderful peace, Coming down from the Father above! Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray In fathomless billows of love! What does "Fathomless billows of love" even mean Fathomless means  something that can't be understood; a  billow  is like a cloud swelling because of a sudden surge. So...... as many times as I questioned God's presence, his love never failed. It comes in waves and blows into my soul in a way that I can't understand. It soothes just when I can't handle another blow. It embraces me when...

To Be A Pillar

It's easy to be weak but it's hard to be strong! What do you want your life to say about you? "The wise woman builds not only for herself but for those who follow along behind her." -Joy Haney You have to confidently know that God will fulfill every promise he has every made to you & trust that it will happen in his timing. It's when we get impatient and want it our way that we become weak and fall short. God has called each of us to be a servant in his kingdom and sometimes we get caught up and forget its not about me or you! Its always about the kingdom, you can't serve people and bring them to the kingdom without being a people person or without being about His business! If the world can't see Jesus in you and through you why would they want it? Sometimes by being still and silent you are standing tall & speaking loud! It is ignorant and careless to share every thought and opinion that we have. Think before you speak, blog, tweet or text!!...

The Young Minister's Wife, So Harshly Judged

A life lesson I had to learn the hard way was: IT'S OK TO SAY "NO" I am not backslid or a stuck up snob if I can't attend every Ladies Meeting and Youth Event in Georgia. At the stage of life I'm in, I have 2 small boys who need and deserve the majority of my time. Not to mention I am a Pastor's Wife/Music Director. They always come first and that sometimes means I have to decline an invitation.  It's unfortunate that it is said "She uses her kids as a crutch" or "She isn't in the altar praying for everyone, she's just in the back socializing" If you could really understand what a Ministers Wife with small children truly has to conquer in order to just be at an event we would give them gold stars and nothing but praise every chance we get.  I don't think we should walk on egg shells or take on more than we can handle because we are afraid of what everyone else thinks about us sitting with our children instea...
