Describe Yourself:
My Testomony !!!!
Let's see I wanted to write a few lines to tell you a little more about me,, And few wonderful things God has done for me in my life. During the most pimative years of my life between newborn and five my life was a disater,, I was being raised by several different people who just did not seem to care, My bilogical mother at the time I was only 2 weeks old traded me to a circus family for $25.00 and a monkey,, now this is very true,, I have often wandered what ever happened to the monkey,,,lol,,, She told me in later years she used the money for gas that night,,, I was relocated with the circus to Waco Texas and stayed with them until I was 5 years old, the FBI found me and returned me back home to Mississippi,,my biological mom had reported me as a missing child once she sobered up,,,, She was able to keep me and my siblings until I was about 6 years old,,, and had us in ruts, between bars, sleeping in cars, under bridges, where ever we could hang our heads, I remember her putting us in dumpsters and eating out of them even sleeping in them,,, Can you imagine ,, As a parent I could not comprehend doing such,,, We saw fighting, My bilogical father pulling a gun trying to kill our mother,,, Finally the state stepped in and at the age of 6 The Lord gave me the most loving and God fearing parents any child could have, My dad was and still is a minister in a little town called Brandon,Mississippi, My mother is one of the most precious people I have ever came across in my life,,My parents had been on the adoption list for a while when one day my dad got up he said and had to finish the sewage system because God showed him a vision of a little girl about 5 or 6 with green eyes and beautiful blonde hair,, Later that day the phone rang and they left to come meet me,,,, Oh what a merical what a blessing,,,,So that is how I was blessed with my loving family,,,, At the age of 10, I received the batisim of the Holy Ghost in Houston,Texas at a minister's convention,,, I still remember that like yesterday,,,, Although as so a rebelus child many times I drifted away from the Lord and went my own way to spread those wings and flew but as I sit here today and think of what I have gone thru and where I have been and where I am in the Lord today I am so thankful and I remember one thing my wonderful parents always said ,,,, If you raise a child up in the way the should be they will always come back,,, I am so thankful I did,,, I have a wonderful sister I love with all my heart her name is Elyce ,,sis I miss you so much,,,,I have a dear brother Rob that I love very much,, I am a loving aunt to three neices and one nephew and another one on the way,,,, I am about to be a grandmother for the first time ,, I am really excited for that,,,, My children have really been a blessing to me in my life and a major inspiration to me,,,I am very proud of each and everyone of them in how they have become young adults,,,God has always been there for me even in my lowest point in life or at my worst rebelious point,,,, He never gave up on me not even when I would have given up on myself,, God is so good , so merciful, so understanding and so forgiving He is my all in all My life my joy He is the reason I breath and I thank him for all he has blessed me with,,, there are just so many blessing's I can't even start to list them all,,,,,,, JESUS IS WHAT HAS MADE ME WHO I AM,,,THANK YOU LORD SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!!!

On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:
Other christian friends and to fellowship and help spread the word of God !!!!Below are a few things that have inspired me in my walk with God and I wanted to share them with you I hope you enjoy them !!!!
_______________________________________
Thank the Lord for you blessings
Begin the thank and praise the Lord for your miracle. Not because by thanking him you can somehow earn it or persuade him to give it to you... It's not a begging kind of praise, but a relaxed and joyful expression of gratitude for how good He is to you.
"Be careful (or anxious) for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Philippians 4:6
_________________________________________
Dont be afraid Jesus is there for you !!!
"And he (Jesus) said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased." Matthew 14:29-32
_______________________________________
Know that God loves you !!!
"What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for me all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? ... For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus my Lord." Romans 8:31-32 & vs.38-39

Expect your prayers to be answered !!!!

Greeting in the name of Jesus to all my Bro. and Sis. in Christ,
I pray that each and everyone of you are feeling well and having a blessed day,
First of all I would like to ask you smile for a few moments because God loves you so much,
I truely hope and pray that you will enjoy your visit and have a wonderful time in the Lord while your here ,
So now let's get to the word of God,
We are so truely blessed to have such a loving and merciful savior,
One of our number one reasons for living on this earth is to love God. It's simple...we confess our sins,
ask for His mercy,
and trust in Him for our salvation. Once you have received God's forgiveness you are ready to follow the Lord wherever He leads you.Let's take a moment and look in,
,
(1 JOHN 4:16) here we read "And we have known and believed the love that God hath for us. God is love and he who dwelleth in love,
dwelleth in God and God in him." Oh what a mighty love the Love of God is,
Just imagine his love shinning trough so everyone can see it,
how wonderful it is to have part of him that is so great,
As a precious sister in the Lord said on her profile as a example of this love,
Picture a giant dump truck full of love. There you are behind it. God lifts the bed until the love starts to slide. Slowly at first,
then down,
down,
down until you are hidden,
buried,
coverd in His love.GOD'S LOVE COVERS ALL THINGS IN YOUR LIFE... all secrets,
all hurts,
all pain. His Love Never Ends...,
,
(1 Corinthians 13:8) What a inspiration when I read that and so true it is God takes every care,
worry,
and problem we have,
All we have to do is give them to him,
Praise be to God!!!! We find as we read in ,
(John 3:16 )" For God so loved the world he gave his ONLY begotten son that whosoever believeth in him SHOULD NOT perish but have EVERLASTING LIFE" Wow,
I sit her as a mother of only one son I was blessed with and think if I had to could I sacriice my sweet loving son to save the world,
Oh what love he had for all of us,
I can't say I could,
So much hurt pain suffering,
and that is the same feelings the Lord had when he gave his the difference is He did we we as parents probably couldn't,
Just imagine all the love Oh how bountyful his love is so unconditional,
so pure,
Let's look at ,
(Acts 2:38) " Then Peter said unto them,
Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins,
and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost" Time is comming to a end We need to get our lives right ,
Time is so short If you haven't already turn your life over to God,
Accept him as your savior,
you will never regreat it I promise it will bring a peace to you that you can't imagine,

"Behold,
how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" ,
Psalm 133:1,

Colossians 3:15,
"Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee." ,
Psalm 84:4,
"Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart,
in the assembly of the upright,

We need to pray for our inner growth !!! ,
"For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.,
Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
That he would grant you,
according to the riches of his glory,
to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; (woman,
boy,
girl,
means our souls).,
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye,
being rooted and grounded in love,
May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth,
and length and depth,
and height;,
And to know the love of Christ,
which passeth knowledge,
that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.,
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask of think,
according to the power that worketh in us,
Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages,
world without end. Amen." ,
Ephesians chapter 3,
verses 14-21,
We must spiritually grow in our souls. We grow by reading his holy word,
spending time in prayer,
being faithful to our church home,
walking in Godly wisdom,
talking with Godly wisdom,
repenting when we need to,
being able to always forgive,
living a life that's acceptable to Jesus Christ. And being obedient to God's holy word. And by doing these things,
we will surely grow spiritually.,
And may you all be spiritually blessed!!!!!!!!!,
_______________________________________,
I have come to know that God can smooth my path,
calm the storms,
keep me and all I care about safe,
and even make my way simple when I ask him to carry the complexities of life for me. But these things don't just happen,
Not without prayer,
Prayer helps us live God's way and not our own. It lifts our eyes from the temporal to eternal and shows us what is really important,
It will give us the ability to distinguish the truth from a lie,
It will strengthen our faith and encourage us to believe for the impossible. It will inspire and enable us to become the obedient child of God we long to be and believe we can be...!!!,

Lord you have said in your word that whoever believes in you will have rivers of living water flowing from their heart,
,
(John 7:38) ,
I believe in you,
and I long for your living water to flow in and through me today and every day that I'm alive... I invite your Holy Spirit to fill me afresh right now. Just as a spring is constantly being renewed with fresh water so that it stays pure,
I ask you to renew me in the same way today,
I invite,
you Holy Spirit to pray through me,
Help me in my weakness,
Teach me things I don't know about you!!!,
__________________________________,
DO YOU HUNGER FOR THE GREATER SENSE OF THE LORDS PRESENCE IN YOUR LIFE?? ,
Do you desire to know God in a deeper way?,
The good news is that God wants you to long for his presence,
He wants you to find your fulfillment in him,
He wants you to walk closely with him,
He wants you to put all your hopes and dreams in his hands and look to him to meet all your needs,
When you do,
He will open the store house of blessings upon your life,
That's because these things are His will for you,
And All these things will happen,
but only when you commit to prayer..!!_______________________________________,
On my tenth birthday,
I received a necklace that consisted of a small glass ball hanging from a delicate gold chain,
Inside the ball was the tiniest mustard seed,
I thought at that time,
Why in the world did they bother putting a seed in there that was so small it could hardly be seen? It wasn't until later that I learned the significance of that necklace...See Jesus tells us that if we have faith the size of a mustard seed,
we have enough faith to move mountians,
God takes the tiniset bit of faith we have and makes it grow into something big when we act on it,
The Bible says that "God has dealt to each one a measure of faith",
(Romans 12:3) We already have some faith to start with!!! When we step out in the faith God increases our faith!!!!Praise be to God!!!
