We often look for excuses when things don’t go our way, shifting the blame onto others instead of taking responsibility for our own choices. But excuses only grow stronger the more we feed them. This same pattern shows up when it comes to doing what’s right—we stay silent, waiting for someone else to step forward, rather than holding ourselves accountable. “What’s your excuse now?” is a challenge to stop hiding behind hesitation and a sense of true comfort in our own skin.

Joyce Meyer Conference, Columbia, SC - April 10, 2015!

Change to Transform - "Change can initially be frightening but eventually refreshing." Yes, there is a blessing in the process. Be more excited about where you are than be discouraged about how far you are. If we keep the faith and go through Jesus Christ, our converter to His Father, we will be a lot better off. I enjoyed seeing and hearing Joyce at the conference.

Thoughts for Holy Week!
Praise, Jeers, Denial, Silence, Death and Return!
One moment Christ is being praised at his entrance to the city and there is celebration.
Fast forward, He is jeered and an innocent life traded for a murderer’s. His closest
confidante denies him. Christ answers his accusers with silence, is crucified
and returns!
How many times have we all been through these dramas?
We might not have physically died but we lost what we had due to some wrongful
accusations and hit rock bottom. Some of
us, by the grace of God and His divine destiny for us, came back.
Let us all take some time to reflect on what happened during the days before Resurrection Day!

Bring Your Burdens to God!
Last
week was like being in a sandstorm. My environment seemed to change each moment
of the day. From good news to sadness, discouraging to encouraging and all
other mixed emotions.Each day had its own theme. Each time I took my hand out
of God’s I was being swept away by the powerful wind of anxiety. I do not know
how many times I wept, but I knew what it was about. And during those times, I
kept praising and thanking God for His mercy. Living is not easy but life could
still be a lot worse to us. We all go through something, good and bad and we
get through it. We are here to see another day and we should rejoice and be
glad in it. When the dust started settling and I thought I was falling, God
held me up. I am still standing and I announce publicly thank you Lord! He
never left me. Even though I am still in a storm, I can see in front of me. The walk by faith and not by sight is taking some time to get used to but I will. I
am learning not to get distracted from taking my eyes off the Lord by looking
at the stormy waters. I am learning to reach out my hand for His even when
things seem alright. I constantly remind myself how many times God has saved me
with miracles and mercy. By His grace I make it through the storms. I have a
mission and His Will be done. It has already been rewarding.

Rest In Peace!
The world lost Leonard Nimoy (The original Star Trek's Dr. Spock) and Anthony Mason (Former New York Knicks Basketball Power Player). Spock, 83, died of
complications from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at his Bel-Air
home. Anthony Mason, 48, died of a massive heart attack. There were many
others this past week that was known to someone. God grant them all peace.
