Embark on this Humble Journey with me...


- HE desires that we forgive our accuser Seventy Times Seven
- It is my goal to use this blog as a way to release and break those chains that bind us when we turn away from FORGIVENESS...
- It is my true desire to be an ear, a friend, and a comforter as we begin this journey towards Liberty!
- I do not pretend to be an authority on anything... simply a vessel for HIS work...
- Just like this blog... I am a work in process... I am not perfect, just a student open to the absolution that awaits me... HE is busy refining me... and oh, it hurts sometimes...
- I thank you for sharing your pain, your disappointments, and most importantly -- your victories... because, as I have experienced somewhere along the line... when I have been down - there has always been someone to lift me up...
- As children of the one true King - "I know that I know" that it is HIS desire for us to walk in that Liberty that HE sacrificed for us so long ago... it is HIS promise to us...
- Know that I treasure the time and vulnerability it takes for you to share with me... feel free to open up... again, thank you...

Isn't HE Humorous? My GOD is an AWESOME God!!!

I have to tell you...

Yesterday I was writing some notes down & these are the notes that I wrote to myself:

Tomorrow I am: to walk with Purpose in every one of my steps... running towards my goal....

& I get my Email forwarded to my cell phone & this morning I wake up to this on my Email:

1 Corinthians 9:26 So I run straight to the goal with purpose in every step. I am not like a boxer who misses his punches. (NLT)

Meditation: Today make a goal to do something that will bring a smile to God's face. Write it down on your "To-do" list -- and then do it. What are some of your goals for your family? What are some of your work goals? What are your spiritual goals?

HE knows just what we need.......... in every aspect.. even before I give life to it in my thoughts or vocabulary.. with HIS help, of course... '-)

I just wanted to share that.......... I was overcome - because even in the silence HE is talking to me - even when I feel like nothing has changed... HE's working........ I know that I know - that soon my Breakthrough will come!! It's on the other side & I will continue to push through... P.U.S.H (Pray Until Something Happens)

God Bless..................... my fellow buddies...

Grandest Investment!!!

I was reading this the other day & I thought I would share it with you,


- When I was young and free my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the world. As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country. But it, too, seemed immovable. As I grew in my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it. And now as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realized: If I had only changed my self first, then by example would I have changed my family. From their inspiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country and, who knows, I may have even changed my world.
- An Anglican Bishop in the 11th Century

As I read these words - it reaffirmed what I'm doing in my life these days.. I encourage you to invest in the people in your life & instead of asking.. "What can this person do for me?" - ask that person - "What can I do for you?"

It'll be your greatest Investment... trust me!!!

I Got Luv For You!!!

As the Season Changes...


Wow! It has been quite some time since I have sat down to put fingers to keyboard :)

Much has changed & as I change - so will this blog...

For those of you resistant to change............ deal with it! ~ just kidding ;)

In the past fews months old love has gone & new love has rushed in taking over me... so much so that I have abandoned much... leaving me with some love handles - so to speak... Got to take the good with the bad, right?

So much has happened in these last few months... while I was out kissing frogs - my prince was waiting on me... thank God he was patient. So, with that being said - I or shall I say my ex ended the madness between us - whew! While I was busy getting my groove back - along came G (we shall refer to him this way since it's much easier - for now, at least).

It all started out as friends... so, lovely this way... I had not tried this way before so this was all new & exciting to me. As the glorious days went by - our friendship and understanding of each other grew. As it grew - I started to encounter new beings of myself... I hope this makes sense. I encountered different sides of me... sides of me that I did not know existed... I started to laugh more (again - remember, I had been on a roller coaster prior to this) I started to open up and think of things in a more revealing way. Wow! such Freedom! I felt all flushed with fever ~ like wild horses were running through me... such elation! I now know that this is what my Savior desires for me... to be truly joyful! I truly believe he put G in my life for this reason... I know that HE uses people or situations in our life to reach us... G has been one of those instruments.

I wish to expound on this... however, the grumblings down below beckon me to the kitchen... be back soon, my friends...

Aceptación de dios...

Sólo quería escribir una nota breve, por ahora ...

Todos los días me despierto - Estoy muy agradecida ...

Estoy muy agradecida por las posibilidades que tengo - que hacerlo todo de nuevo o una forma diferente ... Al mirar alrededor - También estoy consciente de todas las fragilidades ... parece que muchos de nosotros estamos buscando y buscando --- y que no han encontrado la paz ... esto es lo que creo que todos realmente buscan - incluso cuando no sabemos de nosotros mismos ...

Me desperté hoy y sé que que la paz debe ser buscada segundo por segundo, minuto a minuto, hora por hora... Hoy estoy en mi camino!

Estoy agradecida de que Dios me acepta y que mi nivel no es el hombre ... aquí es donde comienza mi paz.

Gracias Señor por aceptarme como soy y por siempre siendo fiele - incluso cuando no estoy ...

Acceptance From God

I just wanted to write a quick note for now...

Everyday I wake up - I am so grateful...

I am so grateful for the chances that I am given to do it all over again or a different way... As I look around - I am also mindful of everyone's fragilities... it seems that so many of us are searching and searching --- and have not found that peace... this is what I believe we ALL really search for - even when we do not know it ourselves...

I woke up today and I know that that peace must be sought after on a second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour basis...  I am on my way! 

I am grateful that God accepts me and that my standard is not man... this is where my peace begins.

Thank you Lord for accepting me and always being faithful - even when I am not...

Am I Ready to Forgive Myself? ...

- Ok, let me start off by saying that i'm happy to write these words to you tonight...

- As I begin this journey on forgiveness ---- I'm reminded that my unforgiveness is towards someone very special in my life & in order to move on... I must accept them... totally...
- The person who I have refused forgiveness to - is myself!
- I have come to the crushing blow... that I live with this anger towards myself & that I haven't been able to go forward ----- because somewhere in the back of my head I feel as if I don't deserve it... behaving like this has cost me alot...
- Today I made a conscious decision to forgive another, besides myself... Because I want to keep this real - I will not speak in riddles... I will let you know - who, "I have not forgiven"
- It is my mother, I'm sorry to say, that sometimes, I don't even think of her... I have pushed her sooo far away - I just wanted to forget and then not really forget, because she is mother & I do love her...
- I'm realizing & I say realizing because I'm slowly taking baby steps towards my freedom, what I'm feeling right now is that somewhere deep inside of me - I harbor anger and resentment towards my mother... everytime she said this, I thought to myself... "no, I do not" and I would tell her the same thing... I really didn't see it, however, it is slowly being revealed to me - like when a doctor removes the bandages that covered up nasty scars & then the uncovering is something so liberating and marvelous... I'm starting to feel this way in respects towards facing my "my unforgiveness"


...to be continued
