Diamonds,
I walked into our den to work on an assignment and found a pair of my high-heeled shoes.  My oldest daughter usually wears them around the house playing dress-up, but I noticed she did something different.

She placed her shoes, on the inside of my shoes so she can walk better in the heels she desired to walk in and had her eyes set on.  Then it reminds me of God....

We place our feet in the heels of Him that orders our footsteps and direct our pathways.  He will prevent us from slipping and falling because our feet are placed firmly in the areas on the ground He has etched out for us and in the shoes we already own but will one day prepare us for the shoes we will be able to fit once we have matured in our walk with Him.

When we walk, like my daughter's shoes, they don't see a trace of her footprints, but that of the Father who is carrying her, leading her, and guiding her...

With God, you never know how far you will go but this one thing is for sure, with Him, you are never walking alone!

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 fr...

The Strength of God

"The Strength of God" Thank you Lord for the strength we have in You. Thank you God for the strength from day to day. We can rely on caffeine but eventually it runs out, we can rely on vegetables and vitamins to give us strength but my God, the strength we receive from You when we are weak nothing can n'er compare. The strength that comes from You can enable us to love when we are hated on, forgive when people mistreat us, show mercy even when it wasn't reciprocated, give even when we are down to our last dime, have joy in the face of sorrow, long-suffer with others that the world says we ought to give up on--the way you long-suffered with us. You give us the strength through faith to persevere and see what the end is going to be. You strengthen us for the journey when our knees start to shake and they feel like they are about to give out until we begin to pray and ask the Holy Spirit to strengthen us, to hold us up, to fill us up, to strengthen us for the journey. ...
