Diamonds,
Appreciate where you are in your journey.  Sometimes we can think to ourselves that there are other things going on that is more exciting or we might even say to ourselves that, "I wish I could be doing something other than what I am doing" especially when we are bogged down with a lot of work.

It's all going to pay off in the end and don't worry about the others in the race.  They are busy running to win and to accomplish their dreams and goals and you must do the same.

Don't get discouraged and don't give up.  Hang on in there.  If you begin to think about what you would be throwing away by giving up, I hope it encourages you to hold on a little while longer.

And before you say, "I just wish it was over already," just think about all the lessons you would have missed and the stretching to become stronger that you would have forfeited by forgoing the journey.

Get more organized, plan a little better, cut out some things that may hinder you from being more efficient, and be honest with yourself about what you can and cannot do because there will always be something to do but as long as you commit to what God has given you to do, then that is more than enough!

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,"  đŸ‘„ 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
