*****

John 15:13 No one shows greater love than when he lays down his life for his friends. (ISV)

I am madly in love with Jesus like never before. If you spent a large part of your life searching for love in all the wrong places, through all the wrong means and in all the wrong people, until you found out that it is only Jesus that could fill that void; you'd understand what I mean. I remember times in my life when I was literally down and out; I had nothing going for me. I failed out of physical therapy school, my longtime relationship crashed, I had no job, the people that I called friends disappeared, I barely had enough money to eat and pay my bills; but GOD! 

He was always there, cheering me on and comforting me. He reminded me of his love for me constantly. Even when I tried to fight it, he didn't let me go. Even when I tried to ignore him, he drew me closer. It was when I finally let my guards down and allowed him to be him and love me that I found a reason to keep living. It was in my time of surrender, that I discovered him and in turn discovered me. It was in this time that I discovered my purpose and it all made sense; there were some things that I had to grow through in order to fulfill destiny. There were also some things that I didn't have to subject myself to; but the good news is that he caused all things to work out for my good.

JESUS IS MY FIRST LOVE!

*If you have no idea what I am referring to, you're missing out! Jesus is knocking on the door of your heart; all you have to do is let him in [Click here].

If you have experience his love, why don't you just take some time to thank him for his love today!

Thanks for reading! God bless you!

With lots of love,

Stop Hiding! Shine!!!

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to all my new readers and welcome back to my consistent readers! Love you all!!!


While I was in the place of prayer, my heart cried out for a change in the world. It cried out for an end to: senseless crimes, destruction, violence, terrorism, the glorification of sexual immorality, the attempt to redefine marriage, identity crisis, incurable diseases, poverty, lack, etc.

As I prayed earnestly, the Lord began to speak to my heart. He told me that he has done his part, he told me that ball is in the court of his children, the members of his body. He reminded me that nothing catches him by surprise, he is the all-knowing God. That is why Jesus was able to utter "it is finish" on the cross. Furthermore, Jesus was risen from the dead to confirm our victory over the world.

He saw these days...the end times, from the very beginning, that it why is he called the alpha and omega. That is why he sent his Word to prepare and empower us...for this time. He sent his Word so that we would be aware of who is, who we are in him and what he intends to do through us.

These words dropped in my heart as I continued to pray:

Darkness is never the issue.

The issue is that the light refuses to shine.

Darkness represents death, Light represents life! 

God dealt with darkness in the beginning , when he uttered "Let there be LIGHT!" Darkness fled forever.  

So stop complaining about the darkness in the world, 

be the light of the world that you were created to be.

Light is greater darkness

Light carries power

Light effects changes

Light is the answer to the world's problems

We are that light 

Take your place

Arise and shine 

The body of Christ is God's light house

Created to stand out

Created to stand up

Created to rule and reign

Created to have dominion 

Follow the steps of Jesus

Show the world who your father is 

Walk in the consciousness that the enemy is under feet

Maintain your position, you are above only

Walk according to God's Will, in line with his Word

That's how to shine

The Word of God is the light of men

The Word lives in us, it is the sustenance of our life 

The Word is the source of all things 

Stop hiding

 Be bold as a lion

The glory of the Lord is your covering 

The glory makes the difference 

The glory is what qualifies you

Shine in that glory!

Reference scriptures: Isaiah 60; John 1:1-4; Matthew 5:13-16

I pray that you were blessed and encouraged by those words just as I much I was!

You're blessed!
