Living by Faith

Living by faith is not as easy as we think, and for the most part we forget that when we are going through some tough time, we need to trust in God more and be patient. My natural man wants to scream , yell, shout and insult the entire world for making my life harder than it should be, but my Spiritual man reminds me that I need to relax and trust in God. It reminds me to lay all my troubles, aches and sorrows in his hands and step back and let him do his will. I know so much easier said than done, but I can tell you that it took me 8 years of working like a dog , and an injury to finally let go of my grip on my own self  and finally allow God to take control of everything. I can now say that I am finally living by Faith, I have never been so not in control of things as I am now. And I can't do anything except Trust and have Faith that God will see me through. So I hope you learn from my experience, don't allow yourself to be like me and wait until the last minute to let God have full control of your life. It can save you a ton of pain.

Also know that when it rains it pours.. this week I had an important commitment with God that I needed to keep, well I am convinced that a true blessing is headed my way because everything that could happen and go wrong did. First my phone decided to die on me and started to do weird things with the screen, then as if I didn't need them my glasses mysteriously cracked in half,  then my Dr. request for 2 test were denied by the insurance company and I had the worst, neck shoulder arm pain ever and today I am sick with a horrible cold. So as you can see when it rains it pours, but I believe in JESUS and he will help me through this. I know that I will be healed soon, a Blessing s coming my way and my life will be transformed and all the Honor and Glory will go to the Lord.

Father I surrender my life, my will, my health, my hopes and my dreams into your hands and I ask you in the name of your son Jesus that you help me overcome these obstacles that are in my way and give me Justice and Victory over my oppressors,  Amen!!

Thank You GOD for one more Birthday !!

PS..I found tis cute bear on line he is not mine, I just love him

Hello every one Yeah!! today is My B-day and I am unfortunately at work with a Flu and with some major pain on my neck/ back and shoulders, but I am grateful that I have one more day in this life that God has been so kind enough to lend me. Last night I did my Thank You prayer and I asked the Lord for guidance. I am also Happy to say that I know what I will study next, I am not going to say what my decision is, I will wait for a better time to share with all of you, But As a b-day gift I asked Jesus to help me achieve my Purpose and my Dreams. And to use me to help others achieve theirs.

 I called my Twin and I wished her a Happy birthday she is also sick with the Flu I think I gave it to her ( by the way in case you did not read my previous entry my twin is my now 6 year old Niece, we are born on the same day " so in her 5 year old brain .. that means we are twins.. =D.

I have been blessed with many Happy Birthdays and I am so Thankful for the loved ones in my life that remembered.. I don't know what My boyfriend has in stored, I did say I wanted to go to Disneyland.. but I am not feeling good so I don't think I have the energy to do that. And as far as my Wish list.. this is the first year that I didn't have a list of stuff.. I was more concerned with God guiding me into my right path that I kinda focused my energy into asking the Lord for that type of blessing.
 =(... maybe that means I am growing up and maturing.

At work my Friends decorated my area with happy birthdays decorations and we cut a huge chocolate Cake . Yum Yum.. and then we hit Shakeys for a not so healthy but oh so good Lunch =D.

Anyways I hope you are all in good health and I pray that God blesses all my loved ones. my nephews and my Family and me with Love, Health Prosperity and Happiness. For my wish I wish blessings for all of us who need them and may God give us many many more years to grow in his presence.

xoxoxo and Thank You

Good Friday!!!

Blessings to all of you on this Good Friday..   I  am enjoying my days off.. did not do what I had planned to .. due to a Person changing their  mind, but Still managed to enjoy myself.. I was able to go to church and participate on some of our Activities.

 

Wednesday Washing of the Feet.. will post Pix  later.

Thursday.. Family blessing 

and Good Friday .. participating of the breaking of bread

still have Easter Sunday to go.

I am sitting typing this.. ironically because my Little nephew( who just turned 8 ) was on line and mistakenly attempted to clean my Mac monitor with a paper that had Gum on it.. so YES!!! I had one of those OMG!! moments.. but I managed to clean it.. I am just writing this to kill time so that he understands the magnitude of his transgression ( if i clean it fast he would think it was not a big deal)  He must learn to be responsible and consequences.. 

Also since I did not go out of Town ... for my mini vacation.. I used some of the Money on the MAc Counter ( mini haul).. will post pictures, this weekend.

Going to eat dinners.. My mom made the best fish ever... Yum  Blessings to all 

Lovely Sunday..with JC

I have missed my quiet time with JC.. ( Jesus Christ) my Lord and savior. Life has been taking too much of my time.. and I hate it.. I miss going to church and as weird as that may sound.. I am proud to say That I LOVE GOD and I love GOING TO CHURCH. I was missing my fuel.. i was spiritually running on empty.. when I don't make time for me and Jesus  I feel like Kitty Litter so I decided that even if I am not able to go to church during the week as much as I want to I can still be in communion with him. One way is by writing on my Blog.. see I have so much to be grateful to him that I can spend hours speaking about him... but I don't and I remember that when God manifests his Power in your life you need to tell about it so that others can learn from your experience.

Today I went to the late service which starts at 9:30 am.. yes we have an earlier one at 7am , but I was tired.. so I slept in , But it was not my doing.. I have realized that when ever i do that I receive such a blessing when I go alone to the 9 am service. 

Today was a day just like that I felt like the message was exactly what I needed to hear  and I had me time with the Lord. I was able to tell him how much I need him in my life and ask him to keep me safe to guide my life and to teach me how to be obedient to him, I received from him the certainty that I am not alone and that he will be there with me. That I only need to believe and seek him and he will be there to help me. I have so many plans for my life and today I placed them all in Jesus altar and I asked him to guide me to my future to bless my path and my decisions.. I am planning on getting married, something that my mother does not quite accept, but I trust that God will be with me and that he will protect me and keep me safe. 

I prayed and asked him to allow my mother to be more accepting and I asked for wisdom and strength to make my own decisions and not my mothers, I love her and respect her but she can not choose who I marry.. yes you heard that correct if it was up to my mother she would arrange a marriage for me, actually I think she had, but my brother took care of that for me... by simply saying to the person that I no longer lived at home.

Anyways I am glad I went to church today.. almost missed service because the time changed on me and second  I was tired.. but I was glad I didn't ..

May you all have a Blessed week and may you all know that the Lord in Heaven Loves all of us, all we have to do is humble ourselves and call upon him.

XOXO

Happy Belated New Years!!!

I have been quite busy these last months.. as I mentioned earlier we have a blast giving the Knapp sacs to the kids who needed them, And I really  loved this years , I met some really nice kids who unfortunately are going through some tough times. But I believe in a Powerful God and he will rescue them.

we delivered the Gifts on a very cold and windy Day and that brought on my Cold . Had it since the week of Christmas and it stayed with me till today. I am bundled up in bed dying with a horrible cough.

So I had been in bed trying to rest, For New years I went to  New Years service at my Church. we started and 10:30 pm and at the stroke of midnight we end and start the year with a prayer and in the presence of the lord. Wonderful experience , even though I felt like kitty litter I made sure not to miss it. What made it extra special was my family and the addition of my Niece(4yrs) and Nephew(7yrs). They were sitting all bundled up in their baby blankets singing away.

So even if it's late I want to wish you a Happy and very Blessed New Years!!!!

may this be the season for your harvest and may it be plentiful. may all your dreams and hopes be realized and mat the road to your destination be guided and secure.

XOXO and blessings in all your 2010 plans.
