My life through this storm!!!

     My life through this storm is pretty blinding. I think of all the things that have transpired and I wonder how God could love me? A lot of people wonder how they could love God, or why they should love God. What arrogance we have! I imagine the day that I get to kneel before Jesus and pray that he kneels down over me and says...."I have been waiting." Oh what the overwhelming emotion of God' grace for me and the happiness he will grant me over this life will be like.

     We are all to be in the world but not of the world. But what does even mean? Is it possible to be in the world and simultaneously denying the world the power to rule over you? It's not easy! The world has a good way of distorting the truth; men are not taught to be caring and compassionate towards others. That wouldn't serve the world's purpose, we are supposed to grunt and kill stuff!!! Men are at war with the world and its lies! Every sitcom and magazine is nothing but a cruise missile aimed right at a man's heart. According to the world men are supposed to be the loser of the family and the scapegoat for family issues. I have spent my life lost in the storm trying to figure out what a real man looks and acts like. Is it the guy running around looking good getting all the ladies he can desire? Is a real man the tough guy that calls other men with disrespect? Are friends meant to be like the guys off “the Hangover" or the men off "Courageous"? True friends keep each other accountable; they have their eyes set on Jesus as a role model. Men don't have to eyeball every woman wearing tight pants to be men. Men are leaders, we are role models and show respect and exude Honor and integrity even when we are alone or among others who poke fun. We all fall and we all get up but only the foolish man thinks he never falls; only the fool thinks he answers to no one. We all answer to God and his will. If you don't think you will have to answer for the things you say and do then I pray for you and the life you live!!!


     Why do we fear love and its endless possibilities? Why do we walk through the storm alone?

Don't let the world decide your fate in this life, don't let the world be your lighthouse, let God bring you home and let his Grace cover you like a warm blanket....

The Secret to a Successful Cheat Day(Volume # 4) Good ole fashioned Donuts

Image
Yes I know it's been awhile since I have posted a cheat day. With the way life has been going lately I guess I have just gotten side tracked.      Yesterday me and my girls ventured to a lovely local bakery(Paul's) and got some Donuts. I love a good donut, and I love a good danish. I and not a big fan of Krispy Kreme or DD though. Where I come from the best donuts are the mom and pop fried and glazed donuts. I love a good ole' fashioned fried donut that does not come off some assembly line. I highly suggest that one day you venture out and do the same and hit up your favorite local donut shop!! I promise to get back on track the best I can this week enjoy the lovely weekend!!!

A little Humble pie anyone???

I had the recent experience of getting to work on a show that was produced by a local ministry. The event was quite a large one and had multiple facilities and big names. Now if you don’t know what I do for a living that is fine, but during an event like this I do the setups and a lot of backstage and behind the scenes.  Now for my own personal lifestyle choices I will have to say I didn’t expect to see the things I did on this event. I’ve always been scared of big churches and large events that use God as the vehicle. You can’t always trust the motives of those behind them and although I think a lot of the information being put out was good, I got to see sides of people I didn’t expect. The almighty dollar always seems to reign supreme to even the most spiritual.  Religion has a bad rap nowadays and there is usually a huge “BOO!!!” when all you hear are churches asking for money, etc. Then for many to see an event like this where a lot of unnecessary money is spent and you still hea
