Candlelight Vigil for Tori Stafford...
WOW! it was such a sad and somber night...at Victoria Park we had a candlelight vigil for Tori Stafford. It was good..the band, singing and for all those who came out. I lead in prayer and God was good...as always! thank-you Jesus! An awesome woman in the community heard about the story and decided to put this rally together and she did amazing! Lord, just bless her and her family for having the heart to do this...Amen.
As for the prayer...the Lord moved some to tears and it was sad...praying and trusting that soon, there will be a breakthrough in this and Tori will be found and there will be some closure....
I was able to meet Tori's parents and that was difficult. I didn't have any words and really? what can one say? it was hard..but I was able to pass on my book and that's all I could do..well of course...continuing to pray...so to those I urge...continue to pray for Tori and her parents....
well...tonight is fireworks at Royal View Pentecostal Church so we're excited for that...so see you later, continue to look to Jesus...and have a blessed day...

the father's love.....
A story I was reminded of this morning and thought I would share it with anyone who's listening...it will bless your heart because it brought tears to my eyes again, especialy now because of the occasion..." Mother's Day "..and the fathers love for us...
excerpt from " the Desire of Ages ..E.G. White"
...So great was His love for the world, that He covenanted to give His only- begotten Son," that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16
Lucifer has said, " I will exalt my throne above the stars of God...I will be like the Most High." Isa. 14:13,14. But Christ, " being in the form of God, counted it not a thing to be grasped to be on an equality with God, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men." Phil. 2:6,7
This was a voluntary sacrifice. Jesus might have remained at the Father's side. He might have retained the glory of heaven, and the homage of the angels. But He chose to give back the scepter into the Father's hands, and to step down from the throne of the universe, that He might bring light to the benighted, and life to the perishing.
Nearly two thousand years ago, a voice of mysterious import was heard in heaven, from the throne of God, " Lo, I come." " Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body hast Thou prepared Me...Lo, I come to do Your will, O God" Heb. 10: 5-7.
In these words is announced the fulfillment of the purpose that had been hidden from eternal ages. Christ was about to visit our world, and to become incarnate. He says, " A body Hast Thou prepared Me." Had He appeared with the glory that was His with the father before the world was, we could not endured the light of His presence. That we might behold it and not be destroyed, the manifestation of His glory was shrouded. His divinity was veiled with humanity- the invisible glory in the visible human form........
I was so blessed by this today...His love for us....sent to redeem us...coming as a servant to reveal God both to men and to angels.
Excerpt..
He was the Word of God,- God's thought made audible, "that the love wherewith Thou hast loved Me may be in them, and I in them."
God is love and to be consumed with His all consuming love, we must draw near and continually abide in Him...so this all consuming love can flow from us unto other's
...and we need this ..relationships, marriages, families are lost because we can't say.." I love you" or we don't show it simply because of the pride that keeps our heart....
It so hard to humble ourselves and tell the one's we love...we love them or to do something nice for them...yet the heart of Christ is saying "Yes, love one another"..
We need more of Jesus!...we need Him now...I thank the Lord for His love for me...if He had not come for me...I know I wouldn't be here...I wouldn't have this opportunity to be with my children for " Mother's Day"
So all of you and those who have lost relationships with anyone, father, mother, spouse....go and make things right today...life is too short and we will be held accountable for that which we knew to do right and didn't do....
To all you mothers who are listening..." Happy Mother's day" and to my friends and family...I love you all sooooooooo much!!!

A little rough tonite....
This morning was awesome and the first thing out of my mouth today was " Jesus" I love it when I have mornings like this...His presence this morning was so sweet and I love Him so much....He comforted my heart this morning cause He knew my evening was going to be a little hard....
I found myself so terribly lonesome for family...my Kukom who has gone home to be with the Lord...my mom and my dad....
I know I will see them again real soon and just got to press in and push through....
It seems for sometime...I've neglected my precious time with the Lord and for this I'm sorry for...I talk with Him daily but started to let things go...like spending time in the Word and not much prayer...and now I'm feeling run down!
" Lord...forgive me..." but it happens and just got to humble myself before Him and praise Him....and that's all He desires of us....
I would ask this of you...please remember to keep my family and me in your prayers....this would be great....and pray that my book gets into the right hands...for greater distribution....I know the Lord is working something glorious out and great and I have to continue to hold on to this vision...and to anyone who is feeling discouraged...keep going! it may seems that no one else can see your vision...but if the Lord has given it to you...it will come to pass....I am blown away by His goodness and He never fails to amaze me...I keep this blog going for those who need encouragement and also for myself....something to look back at...I've always kept a journal and shared my heart...it's always helped and I will continue to do so...if it encourages anyone else, then awesome! I will continue....God is good.... and I will continue to network...I've met some amazing people this way...and it's all been good...and very interesting to say the least...
A word that blessed my heart today....
Zephaniah 3: 17
Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, and the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, and there be no herd in the stalls-
Yet! I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation
The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer's feet, and He will make me walk on my high hills
Yes...Hallelujah!...the love we must have for the Lord must be real...because even when things don't go right and when things go terribly wrong...we shall rejoice no matter the circumstances in our way....nothing can seperate us from Him and we must stand and declare His goodness...He will see us through....and the best part is looking back and seeing how He kept you and seeing this new growth in Him...it's amazing....just keep going! this time here is only temporary...rejoice cause we are going on to a better place.....Love the Lord with all your heart today and He shall direct your feet....
goodnight friends,......

Well my friends, luv you much...press in and push through and remember those days, the hard days, remember you are not alone...and the Lord is with you at every moment...sometimes we fail to remember and not seek His face...but He's there and if you seek Him with all your heart...you will find Him....
