God doesn’t give you the people you want,
He gives you the people you NEED….
To help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be.
Do you believe this?
January 25th, 2010Cleaning House
January 24th, 2010Last Week I threw out worrying, it was getting old and in the way.
It kept me from being me; I couldn’t do things God’s way.
I threw out a book on MY PAST
(Didn’t have time to read it anyway).
Replaced it with NEW GOALS, started reading it today.
I threw out hate and bad memories,
(Remember how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too, threw out the one from long ago.
Brought in some new books too, called I CAN, I WILL, and I MUST.
Threw out I might, I think and I ought.
WOW, you should’ve seen the dust.
I ran across an OLD FRIEND, I hadn’t talked to in a while.
His name is GOD the Father, and I really like His style.
He helped me to do some cleaning and added some things Himself.
Like PRAYER, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE,
Yes… I placed them right on the shelf.
I picked up this special thing and placed it at the front door..
I FOUND IT- it’s called PEACE.. Nothing gets me down anymore.
Yes, I’ve got my house looking nice.
Looks good around the place.
For things like Worry and Trouble there just isn’t any space.
It’s good to do a little house cleaning,
Get rid of the things on the shelf.
It sure makes things brighter; maybe you should TRY IT YOURSELF..
BE BLESSED AND BE A BLESSING TO SOMEONE ELSE!!!!
May the Lord open the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing that
you will not have room enough to receive it all.
May the Lord bless you exceedingly abundantly above all you could ever
hope for.
Take 60 seconds & Bless someone!
The Sweet By and By
January 5th, 2010When I heard country music superstar Sara Evans had written a book,I rolled my eyes – seriously.I’m just being honest here.I know she’s an amazing singer but I didn’t think she could write.I’m glad to report back to you that not only can she write but The Sweet By and By,her collaboration with Rachel Hauck is a surprisingly entertaining page turner.
The book has a solid theme and it is well written.I can say for certain its one of those books you will read in one sitting because once you start,you wont want to put it down until the very last page.Will the book win any literature awards?No…and I doubt thats what Sara Evans was aiming for when she worked on The Sweet By and By but for a first time author,Sara Evans did a really good job and hopefully this is just the beginning of many more great stories to come.
Obstacles Welcome
December 29th, 2009If there is one thing I learned from reading Ralph De la Vega’s Obstacles Welcome: How to Turn Adversity into Advantage in Business and in Life, its the fact that sacrifice is a necessity in order for one to achieve any type of success.
To achieve true greatness,one must combine sacrifice and a tightly focused vision.Ralph De la Vega emphasizes the importance of having a plan and discipline to follow through with the said plan.Let’s face it,most of us are excellent at making plans. Execution however is a whole different beast mainly because following through means encountering obstacles and frankly most of us would much rather avoid obstacles than deal with them head on.
This is where Obstacles Welcome comes in.Ralph De la Vega encourages us to look for the opportunities in each obstacles as oppossed to just throwing up our hands in defeat.
Obstacles Welcome is a well written book that wont make a you a million bucks richer (nor does it promise too by the way) but it will certainly change the way you view and deal with obstacles.
I wish
December 15th, 2009I wish I could go back to my first year in college and apologise to my first real boyfriend.
I thought about him today and I realised for the first time how good I had it back then.
This person loved me truly,deeply,unconditionally but I was much too young to appreciate it.
Now that I’m all grown up and back on the dating scene,I find myself reminiscing about that time of my life.
I find myself comparing every man I date to him and somehow they all fall short.
I know I shouldn’t compare them but its inevitable.
I should be grateful to him.
He taught me what a good relationship is.
He taught me how a man treats a woman he actually loves.
I was just too young,too stupid,too immature,too childish to appreciate it.
I wish I could apologise to him today.
I wish I could say I finally get it.
I wish I could say thank you to him.
But mostly,I wish I could just tell him how truly sorry I am for everything I did back then.
I wish I could take it all back because he didn’t deserve it.
I hope he’s happy wherever he is.
He deserves happiness.
Chuck Wicks Rocks
December 7th, 2009I won tickets to see Chuck Wicks live at the SEC Fan Fare in GA thanks to Dr.Pepper and yes,he is yummy in person and he actually rocks.I thought it was cute that he performed Brad Paisley’s “Wrapped Around” and I’m totally crushing on one of his guitarists–I won’t say which one but he’s hot!Here are some pics of Chuck Wicks performing live at the event.
I too had an affair with Tiger Woods
December 5th, 2009Tiger Woods is officially having the worst week ever.
About 8 women (at the time of writing this post) have come out of the woods claiming to have had some kind of affair with him.
It all seems sexual,not emotional to Tiger Woods anyway.
I didn’t know Tiger Woods had it in him but apparently home boy’s got his cheating game going on!This just goes to show you really can’t judge a book by its cover.
If all the women’s allegations are to be believed,Tiger Woods really is a tiger,in bed that is.
And why is it that pretty much all of these women are either waitresses or hostesses?
See mom,I knew I wasted all that money on college tuition,I should have just become a waitress.
Thanks mom for ruining my chances of becoming the 9th Tiger Woods mistress.
