The Process of a Diligent Deliverer




Keeping faith in God because when everything around you seems like its unable He is able - word for thought

Mark 11:22

Have faith in God,” Jesus answered.

Ode to Homeskillet

Thank you for that talk in particular. After I got off the phone with you I just sat down and praised God. It was one of those moments. I know there is a reason why I'm at this point in my life. I've never doubted what God has instore for me but sometimes I doubt myself. I guess I'm so ambitious for success in my life that it scares me sometimes. Crazy part is, why am I worrying about something that is already in the making but I'm too caught up in the now moment I cant even realize how my life is being affected. Its already been noted deep in my brain that He has major plans for me and thats why I'm working on my "demands, always wanting everything right now" but I comprehend that you cannot get anywhere without putting forth effort. I was given certain skills for a reason and who knows where its going to take me but I'm really learning to live for day and not worry about tomorrow. Btwn my pride and self-doubt these two will kill me and thats where I begin to stress myself and freak out. Its funny because I always read old sayings how you are your worst enemy......but I dont want that for myself. This has been on my heart for a little while and my biggest fear was to speak up and ask for advice. The fear of weakness wouldnt allow me to openly express myself to you, but I didnt care anymore. I have a great life...yes I'm blessed beyond measure so why am I worrying about nonsense. It meant alot to me thank you, love you goodnight

Wake Up CALL!

Morgan: ummm yea well I was gonna tell you I was watching Joyce Meyer on TV on Sunday and she spoke about obedience.
Sent at 10:25 AM on Tuesday


Morgan: Just might be something good for you to hear, but she was making a point on the fact that obedience is not about living a boring lifestyle, but its about setting yourself free.
So for example... adam and eve...

Morgan: so they had access to all the trees in the garden, but there was that one tree that was off limits. Of course human nature pulls us toward the things that we "cant have" or tempts us do things that we "shouldn't do" according to God's word, but we have the choice to decide between life and death/happiness and sorrow. So adam and eve were naked, which equated to their freedom. But after they ate from the bad tree, and became disobedient, they realized they were naked, and essentially lost their freedom to enjoy life the way God wanted them to.

Morgan: So I think when we chose to be obedient we get much more out of life than we would otherwise. And God set certain "rules" to protect us, give us freedom, and guarantee us a fulfilling lifestyle. That's what obedience is all about, but we have to choose it. God is not going to choose it for us. The power to live in freedom and be happy remains with us.

Morgan: So I thought that was powerful, because its like God is pleading for us to choose life through him. Everything else equates to captivity and unhappiness.
me: it really does
everytime I go outside my boundaries everything crumbles and then I am running back to God
i need to stop doing that

Morgan: Yea, I think you deserve a lot more than you are experiencing (especially with them boys), but I think if you stay obedient, God is going to take care of you because He knows exactly what you need and want.

me: i know I deserve more than whats already around me
Sent at 10:46 AM on Tuesday


Morgan: Yea and I think you have a lot of offer, but you have to protect what you have and don't let these "boys" break you down piece by piece
me: i need to stop picking up old toys

Morgan: like you are strong and mature, all they're gonna do is hold you back
yea lol
a lot to*

Morgan: Just know your worth and stay obedient. God has your back, as long as you choose life!
Sent at 10:49 AM on Tuesday


Morgan: well, He will always have ur back, no matter what, but I'm sure you'll be blessed abundantly if you stay obedient

me: morgano I wanna be BLESSED!!!!!

Morgan: lol you are blessed!
and you will continue to be!

me: whenever I shift my ALL of my focus back to God it amazes how my life improves so much

Morgan: girl yes!!!

All This Talk



Photography: Kendra Harris http://photogblog.tumblr.com/

Within the past year those around me have started a new chapter in their life. The beautiful union between a man and a woman better known as marriage. Whether its the engagement period or the actual wedding itself, tears of joy are flowing down my eyes. I'm excited for those around me because they have found their better half and now declared unto Him, to start this new chapter together as ONE. But as for me, I haven't found that ONE, or better said "He hasn't found ME." I always think to myself that God is really working for the best of my interest. My cousin told me a saying her mother always told her and now I'm starting to really open up and listen "allow the man to fall in love with you before you fall in love with him, you as a woman can always fall in love but for a man to fall in love with you first is a undeniable love" With all this said I know marriage will happen for me down the line and I can't wait to see who this guy is but until then I will enjoy my singleness. I do have love for one guy in particular and its a love like no other. There is something about him that makes my heart flutter just to hear his voice. Just having him in my life........ I'm at lost for words. Honestly I cannot sit here and say each and everything about him but I do know that he's been a great blessing into my life. Never thought I would love another man again, but I'm allowing my heart to open up. Who knows where I'll end up but until then I'll enjoy the ride!

RT @chikaLota_: RT @pngwolo: (10) Your singleness is a gift of God to be cherished and to be used for his glory!

Challenge Yourself





Nothing is impossible. Nothing is too hard. Nothing can defeat you if you allow it.



"I can do everything through him who gives me strength" @brob_thagreat "bio"

I love this man for his constant presence in my life.
