The door has been opened. It has been YEARS since I’ve “freely” spoken or taught before God’s people. In my younger years as Pastor’s/Minister’s wife I did a lot of speaking & teaching however as time moved forward, the church got bigger, his ministry increased & mine decreased & I was ok with that. I loved being in the background, he was the Pastor, Teacher, Preacher, Evangelist, Singer and I loved supporting & watching him minister but I always knew in my heart that God had more for me to do. I had become comfortable & complacent in my role behind the scenes as a Wife, Mother, First Lady, Employee, however while enjoying my life…I had lost focus on my purpose. (more about that in my book). Now it’s my time to take center stage in my own life, I’m the leading character in this stage play of life & God is the director, preparing a platform from which I am to tell my story about His love, healing & restoration power. The story of how God’s will allowed me to stripped & broken so that he can build my life on a new “solid” foundation in him. A story of hope so that others will See & Know that God is real. The story of a Life Altering test that has produced a Life Building Testimony. I know…many have gone through similar situations, but no one has gone through Mine & no one can tell “My Story” but Me!

So as I stated above…The Door has been opened. When I walked into the room in Griffin, Ga, I was nervous but I knew without a doubt this was a God ordained the moment. As I began to speak the nervousness was replaced by a familiar warmness that started on my hands, moved up my arms then to my face, it was God’s Anointing, something I had not felt in years & although I had Prayed, Prepared & Practiced, it was at that moment I Knew, I was walking in my Purpose. See, God told me a long time ago, his will for my life, even though I choose not to follow that path, his will never changed. We can either take the easy way or the hard way but God’s Will Shall Be Done!
As for me…It’s not my will but Thine Will Be Done. God has equipped & empowered me to be a encouragement and speak life into the lives of his people & that’s how I try to live my life. Now don’t get me wrong….it’s a struggle because there are so many things that “I” want to do (not necessarily in this order) like,
1: Finish My Book.
2: Launch My Ministry
3: Go Back to School
4: Focus on becoming Financially Stable & Self Sufficient.
5: Maintain a healthy relationship with my children.
6: Be a present & consistent factor in the lives of my grand-daughters.
7: Stay on my path of healthy eating & my Fitness regiment.
8: Enjoy some recreational time. (Traveling & Stepping)
9: Start dating so that I can have that special someone in my life that I can grow with.
And if it be God’s will, l shall have and accomplish them all but I must seek ye first the kingdom of God (his will) and his righteousness (his way); and all these things shall be added unto you (my desires) ~ Matt 6:33.
