The Word says all have sinned and fallen short of the love of God. No perfection in no one. The trust we are to have truly in God is the faith that as we "die daily" in our walk with Christ, He will judge us no more according to our sin.

I had to accept the reality that I know God's love comes with NO repentance, and in knowing that, I was confident from the day I received Christ as my Saviour and Lord of my life that regardless to what I do, He will not leave me.

When I was first born again, I remember I ran so hard toward the Lord, my child thought we had moved into the church. We were there every time the door opened. She had no way of knowing that her mommy was dying inside. I needed something I had never had before. Husbank, child, family, friends, material things, all that stuff I had. Still inside I was literally dying. Women are so emotional, we have a lot of "hats" we have to wear. Wife, mother, nuturer, source of life. The vessel He chose was not by mistake. In my walk with Christ, I have left myself open for anyone who would like to take a look.

Really in a nut shell I was successfully living a life of "confusion". Did not know who I was, or where I was going. Just doing stuff. Life. Empty.

God doesn't sit around reminding us of our past unless it is a source of edification. A testimony.

Armor is needed as a faithful, heart full, written in you Christian.

The scariest thing for me was when I realized after I was saved that my cross was still there. I thought my sinful desires, and lustful thoughts would just go away.

Funny how we keep misunderstanding the length of time to God is so different. "A day is a thousand years, and a thousand years are as a day" It hasn't taken me as long as I thought to get it. Freedom from people is very important when you are truly desiring a closer relationship with the Father. Regardless to what your pastor, or your mother may say. It has to be between you and him, initially.

Only you know your cross, what you have to bring to that alter. Folk don't know, and church folk definitely don't get it. I have some very interesting conversations with church members, and have had to just say "wow" afterwards. If I was not a tough person, I would be crumbled by the things I heard.

You don't know my yoke!

"These are truly the last days", that is what my one of dearest friend say. All I know is if I didn't have my faith, I would be caught up emotionally in this world. I left it a long time ago, it doesn't come inside. No in my prayer life, not in my faith walk. I can not allow that, therefore to me, I believe when comments are made, not let it get to you.

The Word is constantly revealing itself. The word abomination. Does anyone know how many times it is used in the Bible? From Genesis to Revelation.

Over 250 times. From the subject of sexual sins, to how a woman should set herself away when she is on her menstraul, to lying. On and on we could go with that one word and its vast subject matters.

I asked Creflo Dollar why preachers always use homosexuality as the prime example in the pulpit, to say that that is the greatest sin. He looked at me, and said he never thought about it like that before, and for that ignorance he apoligized for himself and every other minister that had ever said that. It that was not necessary for him to apoligize, that wasn't why I asked him. I really wanted to see his reaction. Honestly, I personally, believe he has a phobia like most people when it comes to gay people. Not really knowing it. Pretty much.

This world is going too fast for the kid! My daughter is grown, and she is a good girl. I am glad I did what I did when I drug her with me to church all those times. :) She saw her mother come to life. It was during that 'rebirth'" period that my art career began.
