Turning the Page - Faithfully, Fearlessly

Turning and trusting, I recall two years ago I hosted a women's conference entitled, Expect the Unexpected.  It was an amazing event.  I continue to trust God as He teaches me what that really means.  To me, I wanted to expect all things good, wonderful, perfect, peaceful.  However, I have come to realize that what seems terrible, painful, impossible to me may not necessarily be what God sees.  I learned that the trials of this life are blessings in disguise.  I have learned that God is not concerned about the flesh except that it is holding my precious soul.  It shouold not be in control of my actions, it should not be allowed to destroy my destiny.  So, as I continue turning the pages of this amazing life story, I come to page 30, chapter 2012, and I accept the unexpected.  I acknowledge What Is.  I am learning to have the courage to face the unfamiliar head-on.  Expecting the Unexpected, I did not realize where it would lead me, but here I am.  Trusting and Turning.  Here I am, at times I see the storm clouds rise over my head, I feel fear trying to grip my soul as I push and press towards the mark for the Prize....of the high calling.  I sing in the midnight hour as tears wet my pillow.  But, I am so encouraged, tears of thanksgiving for knowing that God is the Author and Finisher of my faith.  So, I inhale courage and blow out strength and I step out of the the place with which I have become so familiar.  I faithfully follow the Leader, who knows the way that I take.  After the trial, He promised I would be Gold.  Pure, untarnished, without blemish or imperfection, He said I would be gold.  The familiar place, I was quite comfortable there, the familiar place, I thought I would be there forever, but, that place was shaken, unexpectedly it was brought down and utterly destroyed.  In it's place will erect a new place, space for the woman I shall become.  I keep on turning, I keep on trusting.  I replace Fear-FULL with Fear-LESS and I turn.  I am excited about the Rest of the story.   I am determined to keep turning these pages, despite weapons forming, temptations chasing me, I will keep turning the page...everyday I will turn the page and the Author promised me that everyday He will RIGHT it, He will WRITE It.  I turn the page and with tenacity I face every fear.   I daily pray for strength and courage to keep turning the page no matter what it looks like.  Turn the page today and allow your destiny to unfold.  Don't be afraid, just trust and turn as the journey to your destiny continues.  Turn the page, fearlessly and faithfully, turn sister, turn brother, TURN THE PAGE.

Day TWO

Greetings my friends, today is the second day of the first month in the year of Fullness and Glory. So many incredible things happening, so many memories still fresh in our minds. Looking ahead with hope and looking back with appreciation and gratitude because "I survived", some things that happened in 2008 should have broken me, but, as Lady Brown shared,they just bent me a little. My quesiton is always.....What Glory shall come of this? and God says....when the Glory comes the trial will seem so small.....it can even stand in comparison.....so, today .....please be reminded,......Glory is coming, and then another trial, but this is the only way we can move and grow and complete our purpose....FROM GLORY TO GLORY....hang in there my sisters, You wil be so impressed when you see the finished product. Share your Journey with us...and help someone.....What is your Testimony for His Glory? What was your great trial of 2008.....Cause we have left all the mess behind as we cross...

2017 - Epiphany & Authenticity

Part- 1, Page 6, Chapter 2017 - Embracing M.E. (My Eve-Olution)!  We have a brand new scene in 2017. Navigating through the various landscapes, habitations, atmospheric pressures have all revealed for me a clear view of my authentic self.  Looking in the mirror and actually seeing, speaking my truth and actually hearing it, in the most raw form and not offering apologies for that truth.  Arriving at this place required me to leave skin, blood and sweat as a sacrifice on the altar that resulted in a life altered, scene changed, re-arranged and now sustained. Today, there is gratitude, on this day, when the world recognizes and acknowledges the manifestation of my soul's lover, I too appreciate my own epiphany, when I discovered the incredible power within, I chose and will continue to choose, from this day forth to use it to the fullest.  I am now living in that free place, liberated and substantiated,  making every decision and reflecting on every area of this ...

Time to Emerge--come out into view

My sister-friends (and others), welcome to Springtime. It is the twenty-second day of the third month in the year R&R(ReCover&ReStore). Today, the spirit of God reminded me that many beautiful things will Emerge , have emerged , from the fire. The end result of the fire will be an amazing truth that cannot be denied. The fiery trials...there are many, but to each his own. My fiery trial is not for you and yours is not for me. God has chosen us all for a unique and divine purpose. He must get a return on the investment He made in us. He invested so much love, talent, power, anointing in us...and His purpose for our lives must be, WILL be fulfilled. Through many dangers and Snares, through mountains high and valleys low, through increase and lack, God is determined that the best of me, the best of you will emerge . Our best self will come out of all of this "stuff of life". This journey is not without purpose. The fire has come, has gone and will come again....
