Dreamin' Tornados

Thank you God,

Thank you for taking and providing for me. Thank you for the covering over my childrn that are now adults .. guide their paths and when they stray, Lord, chasten their hearts and have them remember the right path. Selah

Last nite God you gave me a dream: Thank you DreamMoods.com

I was standing in an upstair bathroom in front of a camod that set under a small, high placed window ... the kind where you can only see the sky ..

To the left of me in the corner, next to the camode was a sink ... the old fashion kind ... white porcelin, attached to the wall with the exposed pipes descending underneath into the wall .... medicine cabinet above with the chrome trim ...

On the same wall as the sink was the footed tub ... white ... no shower .... no curtain.

Someone else standing beside me ... can't see him .. dark shadowy

Behind me ... my mom

We're all facing the window .... Watching the largest ass tornado coming straight for us ... the swirling dusk as it approaches is blocking our sight ...

We're realizing that it right here ... right now ... in front of us

I drop to the floor ... screaming ... get down!

I can feel the suction of the wind ...

I can hear the rook shaking and rattling to break apart

The funnel demanding that it come with its passing wind

I wedge myself under the pipes of the sink tightly. I feel that I am in a safe place, but unsure if my mom remains exposed.

I hear my mom yell

I don't feel in daylight so I thinking we didn't lose the roof and she's still with me

But I woke up ...

God, I asking ... if you're telling me that its nearing her time, please not now!

Please wait until my son can see her again! Please ... I will make arrangement for her to go home to visit with him, but please not now.

In Jesus name, I love you always
Yo

FEMA Settlement Conference Today

Oh God,

I understand that today may not be the resolve that I hope. The waters may get rough today. Your message through Joel reminds me to stay on the path.

Thank you for Ralph, Father God. Keep him on task and don't allow him to be distracted from the course. I pray that he is the instrument you have sent forth to assist me with this storm.

Lord, watch over 44 while he's doing what soldiers do.

Stop by and see Sean and keep a healing hand on him

Of course, watch and protect my sons and daughter. I love them as life and breath.

I love you Lord, God, most of all. You are with me always.

Love you much and thank you as always,
Yo

When You’re in Deep

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“They saw the works of the Lord, his wonderful deeds in the deep”

(Psalm 107:24, NIV)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

The scripture says is Psalm 107:23, “They that go down to the sea and do business in deep waters, they will see the wonders of God.” Friend, you and I were created to do business in deep waters. In other words, we’re not supposed to have little dreams or little plans. We are supposed to have big dreams. We are supposed to go out into the deep things God has for us. But understand, when you’re out there in the deep waters, you can’t touch the ground. You can’t see the shoreline, and at times, it can get a little rocky. You may not always see how things are going to work out. But, the scripture tells us that deep calls to deep. In other words, God is the one who has called you to the deep waters. He is with you, and He knows there are deep things on the inside of you. Remember, in deep waters, you are not alone. God is with you, and He’s causing those deep things inside of you to come forth. If you feel like you are out in the deep today, if you feel like you are overwhelmed, remember, you are in the right place and God is with you. You will see His wonderful deeds in the deep, and you will fulfill the plan He has in store for you.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father in heaven, I surrender every area of my life to You. I hunger for every single thing You have in store for me. I choose to trust You out in the deep waters knowing that You have good things in store for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Walk Through

Walk Through TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me...” (Psalm 23:4, NKJV) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria Have you ever gone through something and felt like it was the valley of the shadow of death? During the tough times, it’s easy to get discouraged. But I love what it says in today’s verse, “though I walk through...” No matter what you are facing today, know this: you are not alone, and you are just walking through. You don’t have to stop and live in the tough times! They are only temporary. I encourage you today; don’t allow fear to paralyze you in the middle of “the valley of the shadow of death.” Remember, God is with you. He is walking beside you. He is strengthening you. He is making a way of escape for you. He is lining up people and situations to bring you out of that tough place into a place of strength and victory. Today, don’t give up! Press on and walk through! Start to get a vision of your life on the other side. See yourself more loving, more faithful, stronger and more blessed than ever before. As you keep moving forward and walking through, you will get to the other side and walk in the victory God has prepared for you! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Heavenly Father, thank You for Your faithfulness in my life. Thank You for walking with me even in the hard times. I trust that You are taking me through my circumstances to a place of victory and strength in Jesus’ name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen

Securing Insecurities

Good Evening God,

The other nite I went on a nite out without him ... right now he's working out-of-town and was unavailable for me to escape to while Ree had her birthday get-together.

Went to the Beau Rivage.... never been there before. Halfway thru the evening, began to wonder why am I here???? The band was okay ... the crowd was single women or couples all over 50 looking closer to 60. ... Old heads ... with old lines ....

Should have just gone to my mom's but I did want an evening out. Haven't been out since 44 took me to the Hard Rock. This nite wasn't like that since 44 wasn't with me. Called it in early.

I came to the conclusion that I do want to share the evenings out with him ... the nite was empty.

Felt alot better as soon as the journey began towards home, my bed and in between my sheets.

I miss 44 and look forward to his return.

I need to find a hobby. Something to occupy my time and interest.

Lord, I pray for widening of territory. Use me in an area where I may be needed.

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Many people today don’t realize that the reason they’re not happy, the reason they’re not enjoying life is simply because they’ve trained their minds in the wrong direction. They’ve trained their minds to worry. They’ve trained their minds to complain. They’ve trained their minds to see the negative. But just as you can form these negative mindsets, you can retrain your mind according to the Word of God and form godly mindsets. I believe one of the main keys to retraining your mind and developing a positive attitude is by learning to stay grateful. When you stay grateful, you are focusing on what’s right rather than what’s wrong. The seed of the Word takes root in the good ground of your heart. This doesn’t happen automatically, you have to discipline yourself. You have to make a conscious effort every single day until a good habit is formed. Remember, when you live with an attitude of praise and thanksgiving, you are shielding yourself from the attacks of the enemy. The seeds of discouragement cannot take root in a grateful heart. Neither can bitterness, envy or strife. So today, retrain your mind and be empowered with His strength to overcome in every area of your life!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father in heaven, today I surrender my thoughts and mind to You. Help me retrain my thoughts so that they are in line with Your Word. I choose to have an attitude of faith and expectancy and thank You for empowering me to live the life You have for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Romantic Dinner for Two

The Truth - If I Am to be a Reflection of Him

Dear God,

I hope you in enjoy both of the links ....

Love always,
Yo

"The Truth"

Let me tell you why I love him

Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly cause
his light it shines so bright I wouldn't lie

I remember the very first day that I saw him
I found myself immediately intrigued by him
Its almost like I knew this man from another life
Like back then maybe I was his husband and maybe he was my wife
And even, the things I don't like about him are fine with me
Because its not hard for me to understand him because he's so much like me
And its truly my pleasure to share his company
And I know that it's God's gift to breathe the air he breathes


How can the same man that makes me so mad
-do you know what he did
Turn right around and kiss me so soft
-girl do you know what he did
If he ever left me, I wouldn't even be sad, no
Cause there's a blessing in every lesson
And I'm glad that I knew him at all

I love the way he speaks
I love the way he thinks
I love the way he treats his mama
I love that gap in between his teeth
I love him in every way that a woman can love a man from personal to universal but most of all its unconditional

-you know what I'm talking about-
Thats the way I feel
-and I always will-

There ain't no substitute for the truth
either it is or isnt
cause he is the truth
you see the truth it, needs no proof
either it is or it isnt
Cause he is the truth
Now you know the truth by the way it feels
and if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly
cause he is yes he is
I wonder does he know

Brown Skin lyrics (click)

Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin

I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:

Where are your people from? Maybe Mississippi or an Island

Apparently your skin has been kissed by the sun
You make me want a Hershey's kiss, your licorice

Every time I see your lips, it makes me think of honey-coated chocolate
Your kisses are worth more than gold to me
I'll be your almond joy, you'll be my sugar daddy

Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and then:oh hey:

Every time you come around, something magnetic pulls me and I cant get out
Disoriented, I cant tell my up from down
All I know is that I wanna lay you down

Every time I let you in, abracadabra magic happens as we swim
(From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/i/india.Arie-lyrics/brown-skin-lyrics.html)
Higher and higher finally we reach heaven
Come back to earth and then we do it all again
Yeah:..

Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin

I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:

Skin so brown, lips so round

Baby how can I be down?
Beautiful mahogany, you make me feel like a queen

Tell me what's that thing you do that makes me wanna get next to you, yeah

Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin

I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and then:oh hey:

Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin

I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:
