The Prayer of Jabez...

"And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, "Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!" So God granted him what he requested." 1 Chronicles 4:10

Women are so quick to beat the next one down instead of trying to hold her up. Before you wonder, what’s up with her?' ask yourself, 'What's up with me?' That woman could be your mother, mother-in-law, sister, aunt, stepmother, niece, grandmother, great-grandmother, neighbor, friend, co-worker, or… me.

Or have you made up in your mind that she is just messed up. Before you make this mistake, take a closer look. A woman who has endured the most unusual life is someone of wisdom, someone who has been chosen by God to go through things that have made her stronger.

Think of all the great women in the Bible: Ruth; Esther; The Woman with an issue of blood; and don’t forget Mary with her alabaster box, just to name a few…

Ruth chose to follow a better way. She pleaded with Naomi (her mother-in-law), “Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God." Thereby finding a Good and Godly man: Boaz. “May you be blessed of the Lord, my daughter. You have shown your last kindness to be better than the first by not going after young men, whether poor or rich. And now, my daughter, do not fear. I will do for you whatever you ask, for all my people in the city know that you are a woman of excellence. (Ruth 3:10, 11).

Esther was chosen by God to save her people from being genocided. “…and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this? Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish "(Esther 4:16)

The Woman with the issue of blood pressed through the crowds to receive her blessing: Matt 9: 20-22: “For she said within herself, if I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour."

Mary (Whom Washed Jesus' Feet with Her Hair) Luke 7:38-50 “And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet. My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment. Wherefore I say unto thee, her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace".  Her selfless act of Love and Adoration saved her soul.

Women are the carriers of life, not the channels of death. Let's build and encourage each other. Pass this on to all the women in your life.

“Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. PROVERBS 31:10

My Body is About Him

With only a spoken word, God created everything around us.
Just as an artist can`t not paint, and a runner can`t not run, He can`t not create.

From the pallet of the Ageless Artist came inimitable splendors. Look to the canyons to see the Creator`s splendor. Touch the flowers and see His delicacy. Listen to the thunder and hear His power.

His greatest work hadn`t been completed, until the 6th day.
One final masterpiece was needed before he would stop... Humanity.

Gaze on Humanity...the Zenith; and witness all three:
His Splendor, His Delicacy and His Power... and more!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ~`Marianne Williamson

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Your Heart Craves Love

You are attracted to obedience and warmth. In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved. You'd like for your lover to think you are stylish and alluring. You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please. Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something cherished and sacred. In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.

Thank you for stopping by my corner of the Planet!
I enjoy meeting new people and making new friends.
