A CALL FOR PRAYER

Please join me in prayer for ALL the victims of the recent earth quakes and natural disasters shaking our world.
Our brothers and sisters are killed in vast numbers daily in less than one minute. This is really a wake up to all.. let our focus be LOVE and let us pray....
Amen.

Welcome back!!


HELLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Phew! Having got that off my chest I apologise for going AWOL on ya'll but things both big and silly have caused me to be distracted. Donnie Mcclurkin sang it best when he said "we fall down, but we get up.. we fall down but we get up... for a saint is just a sinner who fell down and got up"
So I will like to co-title this post "Get back up again"
Back in February, I lost my job unexpectedly thanks to the dwindling economy, mass foreclosures and eratic stock market my company decided that they could do without me. Hey, I am a firm believer in the statement (wherever it stems from) "everything happens for a reason". It may seem like a trivial thing to some however an idle man can slowly become the devils workshop/mantlepiece.

6 weeks of back and forth interviews in a city where over 60,000 people at minimum were layed off means that there are about 60people to one position (more candidates than jobs) so with all that being said, I was positive for the most part but there were days where I was discouraged and my eyes welled up with tears my mind was running rampant "God, will I get kicked out of my apartment" "How am I going to pay my bills" "how long will this linger" "oh my I can't be homeless". But little did I know HE was working it out for my good. God was behind the scenes.I had the full support of praying sisters and brothers and the word kept me going.

My Remedy was praise:

Praise is what I do
When I want to be close to You,
I lift my hands in praise.
Praise is who I am,
I will praise Him while I can.
I'll bless Him at all times

I vow to praise You
Through the good and the bad.
I'll praise You,
Whether happy or sad.
I'll praise You
(this is my testimony)
In all that I go through,
(somebody said why)
Because praise is what I do,
Cause I owe it all to You.


IT took taking the focus off myself and giving God praise anyhow to make me feel better. It lifts the burden when we release it to him in praise. Now I am no robot and it maybe a hard pill to chew sometimes but CAST YOUR CARES UNTO HIM FOR HE CARES FOR YOU. 6weeks later I got a better job with better pay!

Praise Him folks!!! praiseeeeeeeeeeeeeee him! Sometimes God tests our endurance and I'll be damned if I let a job curse my salvation! The job can go but I am on my way to victory. It doesnt matter what blows your GOD (JEHOVAH) is bigger than that. Get back up again, get back up again GET BACK UP AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

LOVE YA'LL
Saved and Sancitied, Holy ghost filled and fire baptized!
