A Martha Moment

Nothing should take my time from the Lord. Not even doing Right!

The Monster!

"When you build a Religious Monster you have to feed it everyday and it eats money, and when you run out of money it eats you!" Russ Taff

Financial Tree

God has a financial tree with branches. As you are blessed plant back into the nurturing of the tree that it may grow in God's Kingdom. Don't be caught off the tree. Make sure your branch stays connected or it wll die. Be a blessing to the Kingdom, which blesses God, who blesses you, which you are blessed by being a blessing. What a Blessed Feeling! (whew)

Detox From Religion

Friday while walking with the Lord, He spoke to me and said "Detox from Religion".
So being a little slow - as the young people say "brand new" I had to look at both words to know exactly what they meant and here are the definitions...

Detox: cleansing, decontamination, depollution, purification, reclamation, cleaning, clearing

Religion: people’s beliefs and opinions concerning the existence, nature, and worship of a deity or deities, and divine involvement in the universe and human life

Well...
God doesn't desire a "Pharisee Religion Relationship" one that is dictated by people, but an Intimate Relationship where He is your God, Your Father, Your Daddy, the Lover of your soul, Your Guide, Your Provider, Your Protector, Your Motivator, Your Encourager, One who makes you smile and gives you belly-giggles. A relationship that is not rigid, but allows mistakes unto repentence and He will - not religion - show you what actually pleases Him!!! I'm learning God, more and more each day, how to love You!!! You Are Awesome!!!

In Sync with God's Job

A month ago (June 2008) I had a dream about myself. I was sitting in a wheelchair and I was an extremely large woman. I mean, I was filling an extra wide chair with flesh to spare. While I was chair bound I was having flashes of me coordinating cruises, conducting Praise & Worship workshops, singing bgv sessions, working in the church. My mind was just running of things to do for the Kingdom. I was literally out of breath while reminiscing in my chair. I questioned God, "Why is my mind so active on things to do, when it should know my body can't do anything? This is torture. Why isn't my mind in sync with my body?" The Lord spoke to me and simply said "It continues working because I wasn't finished with you yet. Your job was not over. But because you refused to take care of your body, you are not able to complete your job." The next day my niece came by and asked me to walk with her, hesitantly I was giving her an answer like "What? Who me?" but then I thought about the dream and immediately said "Where do we meet to start?!?! I've been walking ever since!

Hallelujah - it feels so good meeting God in the morning on the trail!

Wisdom!

In times of change,

the leaner inherits
the earth

while the learned
finds himself

beautifully
equipped

for a
world

that no longer
exists.

It's Me! Angie!

God is so faithful! As awesome as He is, it simply blows me away that He cares so much for us! I mean He cares in "High-Definition!" There are so many entries I will be making so stay tuned to find out what God is doing for me, in that you'll will be encouraged in knowing what He will do for you. Nothing has been too great or small! I'm going to let you into my world. As small as it is, it does prove His Sovereignty. Get ready, I'm a blogging!!!
