Hey Readers;
I just watched a youtube clip of a kid who is being bullied for being gay. The kid is only 13. He's even attempted suicide several times. Bullying is so ridiculous. I was bullied from 1st - 5th grade. I remember the main girl who bullied me turned everyone against me for no reason. I do remember this same girl kissed me in 1st grade. I felt it wasn't right and told her so. Since then she started bullying me. If I did something better than her she would make me give whatever it was to her. Ex. One day during Arts and Craft we were painting. My picture looked so much better than hers and she knew it and so did everyone else. She told everyone not to talk to me and to just be downright mean and nasty to me if we didn't switch paintings. I didn't do it. I felt I did the work I deserved the credit for it. I eventually had a semi-fight with this girl. She hit me and I hit her back. After that she hated me even more but I was happy. So what if no one spoke to me or even ate lunch with me but my Godsister. I've seen this girl so years back and she only looked at me really strange. Can we say, "Grow Up!"
I have been considered the outsider for years after. I believe because of the horrible 1st years of school I encountered is probably the reason I locked myself into a box. Not literally. A reason for the social issues I have. I've never had many friends. I've had like 2 main friends at a given time. I mean even now I have 3 really good friends and thats it and includes my hubby.
Bullying needs to stop for real. It affects us in more ways than people know. Most kids bully because they are missing something or not getting enough of something from home. Please readers teach your children not to be a bully but more of a friend.
Thanks Readers

Never Forget
Hey Readers,
I have to get this off my chest...Always include God in whatever you do. Especially if He has given you the means or ideas to carryout your goal. If there is something that you want to do; it would get accomplished with His help. Don't lose focus and go out and do it on your own, so you can get the credit for it. God will cause you to endure many stumbling blocks until you get your mind right. Remember that our lives are not about us but about God. This world is not our home. Don't get entangled with the cares of this world. The bible says watch as well as pray. We His people are in this world but not apart. Many things may transpire in this world. We don't have to worry, because God takes care of His own.
1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the father, but is of the world.
We are in the world, but not apart of it.
Good nite!

No Condemnation
Afternoon Readers;
Romans 8:1 says, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit."
Romans 8:1 says, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit."
to express an unfavorable or adverse judgment on; indicate strong disapproval of; censure.
to judge or pronounce to be unfit for use or service: to condemn an old building.
Condemnation means the act of condemning.
According to the definition of condemnation, we know see that we who are in Christ will not be considered guilty. Jesus paid the price for us many, many, many years ago. That doesn't mean that we have the right to do whatever we want. As long as we stay in the will of God, who or what can find us at fault for anything. So when the enemy comes to us with negativity, we as the friends of God, have the power to SHUT IT DOWN!!!
Be Blessed!

Want to be one of God's Disciples?
Afternoon Readers;
Everyday is a day the Lord has made. We ought to rejoice and be glad in it. Give God praise in all you do!!!
As God's disciples, we must pick up our cross and follow Him. Yes life can get in the way. We should remember things we go through are only for God's glory. We have to get out of self, stay focus on the things of God, and get to God's work; whatever He has planned for our lives. If we take care of His business, He will take care of ours.
Be Blessed!!!

God's Grace and Mercies
Morning Readers;
This morning there were some things on my mind. I was thinking how I am happy that I am not God. If I was a lot of people would be messed up. It really bugs me to hear a person constantly complain. I mean everytime you talk to them they are complaining. Actually that is all they talk about. I mean can we talk about what's going on in the world for a change. I know you are thinking, "why does she deal with it." I use to ask myself the samething. I am learning that it's apart of my destiny, something that I need to conquer. Back to the topic, I was thinking about when the children of Israel would murmur against God. I can understand why He hates a murmuring spirit (complaining).
Looking back, while they were complaining, God was placing everything inorder for them. We may not know the future or whats in store for us, but understand that God has a plan for us and we must trust his plan. Remember His word says in Ecclesiastics 3:1, " To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heavens." Let us lose self and wait patiently on God. For He will reveal all.
Have A Blessed Day!!!

Multiple Emotions
Afternoon Readers;
Today I am experiencing many different emotions. Yesterday was Sept 11. The tenth year anniversary of the day America was brutally attacked by terriorist. It was a said day because many people lost their lives including resurers. A memorial was unveiled and open for the families of the lost. It sparked many emotions as they broadcasted it on t.v.; every channel and even memories from that day. My heart gooes out to everyone who was effected by this tragedy.
Serena lost the U.S open. It wou7ld have been nice for her to win seeing as though she was the only American left in the tournament, it was Sept. 11, and she overcame many obstacles to get there. Had she won it would have been her 4th U.S Open Championship. I felt pretty bad for her. On the bright side, NFL aired many games yesterday and my two fav. teams won; Da Bears (because I got to go with the home team), and the Eagles (Michael Vick has an amazing story...love it). They actually blew their opponents out. Too bad they are in the same division!
Now my 3rd year wedding anniversary isn't until tomorrow, but we have been receiving cards in the mail since last week. Today I got a beautiful bouqet of flowers by delivery with a card telling me my fav. restaurant wil be expecting me at 7:15 p.m. I am very excited. I guess this is enough fuel to get me on that exercise bike today and tomorrow. But we will see!

Chosen Vessel
Morning Readers;
Everyone has their own everyday issues. Everything isn't going to be peaches and cream. To whom much is given much is required. If we feel like too much is on us or we have too much to deal with; then guess what God feels that you can handle it. Now thats something to think about. No matter how much we encounter in this life or all at the same time, God believes we are strong enough to endure. That alone should give us strength to tackle it. In John 16:33 it says; "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." God has faith in us, but do we have faith in Him?
Be Blessed!!!
