The Empty Capsule

By -
So this morning as I was making my post workout/breakfast smoothie, I dropped one of the empty capsules on the floor.  Let me back up.....instead of swallowing the capsules of the different supplements I take, I open them up and add them to my smoothies.  I learned this from hubby.  This is better because the ingredients are immediately ingested.  Have you ever dropped a capsule in a small amount of liquid?  What was the result?  okay well that's not the reason for this blog....

 So as I said, I dropped the capsule on the floor.  I stood there looking for it but couldn't see where it fell.  It wasn't until I crouched down low to the ground did I find it hidden in the corner.  As I was picking it up to put it in the trash, God told me that's what we have to do.  A lot of us have a surface knowledge but God wants us to get lower and go deeper to find the treasures that He has for us.  By treasures I mean the wisdom, joy, peace, healing, deliverance, and so much more. 

 Sure I could have left the capsule on the floor until later when I swept the floor.  But going that extra step, making that extra effort to inconvenience myself (sore from working out), to bend down and find what was not visible from a higher position was worth the revelation that God gave me.

 Today I challenge you to go the extra step.  Instead of "just smiling" at someone, tell them God bless you or Jesus loves you. If someone asks you to pray for them, do it right then (if you are able to).  Go the extra mile and watch God blow your mind.

 Hugs and Love

Wrestlemania....

This last week I was kind of in a funk…not funky lol but just feeling blah.   I let the cares of my world get to me. I had to fall asleep listening to music because my mind would not slow down long enough for me to fall asleep.   Yesterday evening I found myself sitting in my room in the dark with the door closed….just…didn’t even know what I was thinking…… I got up this morning and said my prayer as I got ready for work….it was a tough morning because Nazir seemed EXTRA cranky. Surprisingly, I didn’t let that get to me. As I drove to work I had Pastor Lloyd Pulley tuned in on my radio.   But I really wasn’t listening.   All of a sudden something hit me…….no not a car thankfully. The Holy Spirit hit me.   He was like “child of God what are you doing?”   He didn’t need to say much more after that.   I was like you right.   I began to encourage myself.   I began to speak against this funk and call it out of me.   I told the enemy he needs to shut up, go somewhere and be seated.   He’

Not Just visitation.........

By -
So this morning while I was praying....I asked God to never let me leave His presence. I don't just want visitation but i want habitation.  I asked Him how do I do this. He asked me what does Psalm 34:1 say? I said it says: I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. He said well you know that I inhabit the praises of my people (according to Psalm 22:3). I said yes Lord.  Then He responded live Psalm 34:1. If you continually praise me, I will inhabit your praise.The word continually means without cessation or intermission; unceasingly; always. The word inhabit means to live or dwell in (a place), as people; to exist or be situated within; dwell in.  When we always have a praise of thanks giving for God, He will dwell within us....Many times we complain that we don't feel God's presence. Are you praising Him?  Are you blessing His name?  Praise is not something you do on Sunday morning "when the beat drops". You ca

It's Time 4 Transparency

By -
God dropped this into my spirit several months ago.  A friend was asking me what she should name her twitter account. It was for women who were victorious over a life in the entertainment industry. The purpose of the account was for a group of women to share their testimonies in hopes that women who are currently in the entertainment would be delivered.  Immediately the name Time4Transparency came to me. I tried to get a message to her with the name but I was having trouble sending it.  A few minutes later, she told me she created the account cuz she came up with the name. I kinda was sad cuz I liked the name God told me. Later that day I heard God whisper to me: it was meant for you. It all started when I published my first book Summer of 2010. It took 6 years but I unbeknownst to me, began my time 4 transparency.  Although I shared a lot of my testimony, there was a lot more I was holding back.  Now I know if you read my book, you are probably like oh gosh...what more could have h
