Zephaniah 3:17

Zephaniah 3:17 King James Version (KJV) 17The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. Came across this scripture today and thought I'd share it :) So thankful for God's power and strength to be an overcomer!

Our Engagment

So, I decided I'd try to tell the story of how it happened and post some pictures. March 29th, 2012... I came home from work and saw that Jeff has "sent me flowers" I told my parents I was like aww that's so sweet he sent me flowers again.. Lol. I eat dinner get ready for church and was ready a few minutes early so decided to just head over.. (still oblivious) I walked into the church and was about to go and tell a girl in our church something when I looked over and there sat Jeff. I was like wait what??? Why are you here???!!... He called me over got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.. While I kept saying you're kidding right? You're so full of it.... And he kept continually telling me no... I am actually serious! lol.. Anyway He gave me this beautiful watch after I finally agreed to marry him :) Why he had to do it right before church... I will never know! lol. How is any girl supposed to try to be spiritual after she just got engaged?!?!?!? :)

Me freaking out lol..

Ok.. I love him ;)

God is AMAZING!

I am just so excited about what God is doing in our church lately! God is bringing such unity in our church and just blessing us! I LOVE watching Bailey come to God! He is such a great kid :) WHOOOP God is gonna give us full victory and revival!

"Do not be afraid of them,” the Lord said to Joshua, “for I have given you victory over them. Not a single one of them will be able to stand up to you.”
Joshua 10:8

This verse just made me think about people who are struggling... God has given us victory, but he wants us to stand up against the enemy and fight. Pastor's message last night was SO right! We have to get forceful with the devil and come boldly before God and ask God tell God you want the victory NOW! And that you will not leave until you get that victory.

I love God so much! And LOVE my church! And I believe that God is going to give every person in our church victory!!

:)

Sisters


Wow... This really makes you take a step back and think...

I have 3 younger sisters, and I need to start being a better role model especially for my youngest sisters... They are watching everything I do. Not only my siblings, but also other young girls..

All of you older girls remember.. You have a younger girl watching your every move, so make good choices!

Verse of the day:
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Grandkid day!

Today was such an amazing day! First, we went to the church for outreach and a backslider that used to come to our church several years ago showed up with her 17 year old son and God's power came down and touched them both so strong! It was such a blessing to be able to see God's power moving in their lives! Then, we went on outreach and knocked some doors. Then, Me, Shaikell, Hadassah, Stephanie, & Shakota went with Mema to lunch and then we went second hand shopping. And then after all that, My mema made us dinner and we hung out in her house played some games and watched a bunch of videos of us kids when we were younger. It was such a fun day! I love my Mema and my sisters, brother, and cousin! Y'all are the greatest!
<3

Verse of the day:
1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
Psalms 23

Quote of the day:

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us."



My new favorite song!!!! <3 <3
