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!

Diamonds, there was a young person a part of her church's youth group and she shared that she wanted a job in a strip club. "The strip club," they asked? "Yes, the strip club. There is a job opening as a cook and while I'm there I want to share the gospel with the strippers," she explained to her youth group. Well, her youth leader, along with her youth group carpooled to the strip club and prayed over the building in the dead of winter. They then proceeded by writing her work sc hedule down after she got the job and when she was scheduled to work, they each agreed to pray. After the young person ministered to the other young women in the strip club and introduced them to Jesus Christ, they responded by coming into the church, giving their lives to Christ and made the decision to change occupations. What an awesome testimony of God's love, light, and grace being dispensed into the world! May this testimony encourage someone to follow God's ...

Looking the Part can be so far off!!

Diamonds, many people are looking the part, but they are falling apart and their hearts are far off . The truth can also be said of ourselves if we are not honest with who we are and how we are living apart from how we look on the outside but God sees the heart. God has a way of distinguishing the real from the fake. Try the spirit by the Spirit the Bible says.(1 John 4:1-5) The Bible also says that you may those who are His by their fruit. (Matthew 7:15-23) We can't get oranges from an apple tree or lemons from a grape vine. It is the same way with those that may look the part but they have no love for their neighbors. They don't trust in the Word of God. In fact, they live contrary to the Word. And for anyone that does not confess Jesus as Lord, they do not, will not, cannot without the presence of the Holy Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:3) The Holy Spirit seals every believer, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possess...

"Beautiful Scars" I met a woman today while running errands with my daughters and she was staring at the scars on my face. She said, "Excuse me, please forgive me for staring at your face but if you don't mind me saying this, I must say even with all your scars, you are a beautiful woman. I mean really beautiful. God really preserved your facial features; I mean your eyes, your nose, and those lips--you truly have an amazing smile." I couldn't help but share my story after  she asked how I sustained the burns which have become my beauty marks. She was in awe of God and agreed if it had not been for Him, I would never have made it out alive. She encouraged me to continue to share my testimony because now more than ever people need to know that God is real, is still a miracle worker, and He still saves. I shared with this angel that I promised the Lord years ago that I will no longer be ashamed of my scars or sharing my testimony; therefore, whenever any...
