Dear Diary: Opportunities




Well Lord, I asked for a door to be opened and your did just that. At first I was a bit sceptical about this new job position seeing how it's only 2days a week, and 4 hours a day, but there is so much potential there God, and I am so grateful. It has been and still is a long road that I have to travel, but I have always been the type to take the road less traveled by.


I used to think that if a thing doesn't happen when I wanted it to or in the way I wanted it to, that God had forgotten about me or my requests. Now I realize that God's Delay is not a Denial. I have learned to have so much gratitude for the small things, so that when the BIG things manifest I will know how to govern...lol!


As I talked with my good friend Traci the other day and she told me how much of an inspiration I was to her, I began to cry. Most times I feel like I am a pitiful example of Strength, Courage and Wisdom and my friends are fools for thinking I lead by example. But that is not the case. She spoke of how I have displayed more Strength in the past year and 3 months of being unemployed then ever before. How I have displayed so much Courage in speaking the truth about my situation when asked then ever before. And how I have displayed so much Wisdom in dealing the with my situation then ever before. So maybe she is right. Maybe I do have all these qualities and more. I am finding out more and more about myself daily and it has and is taking me though a lot of emotions, but I thank you Lord for making me shine like a Diamond!

Your friend Traci must have really laid it upon you, in order for you to cry. I know what you mean - sometimes I don't feel that I'm the pillar of strength. That's when someone always seems to notify me of the difference I've made in their lives.

I pray so much that at times I feel my faith sway. Thanks for making me feel like there is a light at the end of God's prayer tunnel.

@Don
This why we as the indiviual God chose to be the light and the pillar must walk in a way everyday that is edifying(chk spelling) to God and His word...we never know who's watching (wink)

Lifestyles Conversation...Take 1(Clack!)

Okay so while me and a few of my co~workers were in the breakroom early this morning, I began to tell them about this board game I bought. In this game there is a part where you have to tell the truth about whatever the next player ask you...it's sort of like "Truth or Dare"... but with a twist...and it's for grown folks...okayyyyy! Well One of the cards you can play is called "Lunch with the girls!" and it has several different open~ended questions on it. For instance one card might say: How do you... and then you have to fill in the blank...with whatever comes to your mind first, but it has to be something real true and honest. Well we played a bit of it during our break and let me tell you...them folks I work with are NASTY YA'LL! *LOL* They had me rolling...but it was all in good fun. I decided to do one and post it. Now I won't tag anyone to do one of their own, but I will encourage you to. It's a fun way of revealing just a little bi

Been So Long Current mood: Moody Category:  Life Wow, I haven't written a blog in forever and a day. I almost forgot completely that I had a blog, that is until the very reason I started this blog in the first place - showed me once again; how much I need to start writing again. Let's see, so much has happened since I last posted, and I have to admit - I really wish most of it never happened at all. As much as I appreciate 2012, I'm extra glad I will never have to see it or relive a single moment of it! Ups and downs can not even begin to discribe the emotional rollercoaster I was forced to endure. Heart-ache, loniness, pain, lies, hurt, sickness, debit, curses, stress, confussion, missunderstandings, no pay, failure...oh boy did I fail a lot! I don't think there are enough words in the dictionary to discribe my distaste for 2012. Now don't get me all the way wrong, there were a lot of good times as well. Way at the top of my list, would be my Mother'
