Father God, I lift up every mother suffering from post partum depression to you this morning. Many of us are celebrating Mother's Day this weekend, but there are some mom's or expectant moms that wishes they weren't pregnant because of this mental health condition.
Usually, mothers experience the "baby blues" which lasts up to 2wks (irritabilty, restlessness, crying, etc.); however with post partum depression, the symptoms lasts longer, moms contemplate suicide, hurting their child and have the inability to care for their baby(ies). I ask that you heal them dear Lord right where they are and please remove this dark cloud out from up over their heads.
Please shine your light in their direction that their affect becomes brighter so that they may be able to bond joyfully with their child/children. May their spouse, or baby's dad be supportive but when they are not due to their unwillingness, or lack of understanding, please send these mothers the extra pair of nonjudgmental, compassionate, empathetic, and loving hands that will treat them with tender loving care until their change comes in the mighty name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
☎📝If you or someone you know is suffering from post partum depression, please speak with your primary health care provider, pastor, etc. for a referral to a therapist and/or a post partum new mother's group in your area. There is nothing to be ashamed of when there are those who specialize in this type of work and would love to help you through this difficult time.
God Bless!

Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season. The lenten season is observed to better appreciate the death, and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. In addition, Ash Wednesday has another significant meaning for me. It was on this day, Ash Wednesday that the Lord brought me out of my induced coma in 2000, March 8th to be exact. Prior to that, I could only recall seeing my brother the night of the fire  in January who accompanied me in the ambulance while being transported to what was then called UMDNJ in Newark, NJ. On that Ash Wednesday, I can remember seeing both my grandmother and my mommy sitting in my hospital room. Grandma holding a can of Pepsi, and mommy doing something with my feet, lol. Probably clipping my toe nails. There is also that taste of chicken broth or soup I will never forget fed to me intravenously along with other fluids to sustain me while I was in a coma. Its been 16 years from t

Diamonds,  your focus should never be to rub elbows with those in power, but to humbly serve in the capacity He has called you! Watch beloved, in due season, God will exalt you to places and positions that you thought was dependent on others! However, there is some truth to this.....the right Person in fact, is the one who called you to your position of purpose in first place--Jesus! Keep your eyes and your undivided attention on Him! If He said it, believe it! You can ALWAYS take God at His word! #BeKneeDeepInService #GodWillRewardYourFaithfulness #HeWillPlaceYouInThePresenceOfKings #StayInThePresenceofGod

#REMEMBER

On the eve of the 18th Anniversary of the campus fire at Seton Hall University (1/19/00), the Lord woke me up early this morning with thoughts of my late beautiful mother, aka "Red,"  👄 Doris Marlene King-Christmas. She left this earth serving and caring for both my sick grandmother as well as myself (2002). On the day of her aneurysm, we were preparing for another surgery related to the fire but she held her head high while fighting back her own tears, held my hand and to get my mind off of surgery, she asked me to cook a packet of oodles of noodles (LOL) for her. That woman was determined for me to regain my activities of daily living because little did I know, I would one day have a family to care of for myself by the grace of God. I could not have made it this far without the Lord using her to begin the process of healing. She kept a song in her heart, and a step in her foot (picturing her dancing like David did minus the clothes falling off (LOL). I would have been l
