Journey of a Conqueror: Brokenness to Beauty
Dad, thank you for these words of encouragement and these women whom you used to advance your plan. I thank you for their obedience to You. You know how I often times feel broken and rejected by society because of my different upbringing and my disability. Dad, please remind me that you are using me for a purpose. Remind me that you accept me even when others reject me. But most importantly, remind me to never reject others, and to accept them just as you have accepted me.

The sound of your voice
I wonder what your voice sounds like? Well, I kind of know what is
sounds like. Your voice is gentle, quiet, calm. Your voice is firm
and convicting. Your voice is deep, and it penetrates the soul, body,
and spirit. Your voice is filled with love. But you can be angry at
times to, but even than your voice remains the same. You are not
judgmental but you do judge righteously. You are not like men who can
judge incorrectly. You are not critical, you understand my strengths
and weaknesses. You are patient with me, your daughter, and I think is
so cool. There is none like you. Dad, help me to always remember your
goodness especially when I am dealing with the judging, criticizing
attitude of men, even my mother in the Lord, Na Tanya. She is only a
person, not God, not my Dad. I know that you can and will use her for
your purposes for me. But I am not going to be afraid of her, because
your word tells me not to fear any man. Whatever misunderstandings
exists between she and I, Dad I pray that You would help us resolve it
all, so that we can become better friends. I know that we need one
another. If we cannot get along here on earth for a little while, then
we are going to have a very difficult time in eternity. Show us both
how to be reconciled withone another in You, for You are the true and
living God of reconciliation. And show us what exactly we have to be
reconciled about because I am really clueless. Show us what is the
proper balance in our relationship. I know that there is much wisdom
in her, because of the life experiences that she has, but I feel that
does not make void my own life experiences.
Okay, so she is struggling with grief of loosing our relationship as
it used to be. But Dad, relationships change because people change. I
know that I am changing for the better, therefore, I pray that our
reelationship will change for the better. Help me Lord to respond to
her is a loving, mature manner, to respond your way not my way. But I
don't want us to just sweep our pain under the carpet because that
does not make any of it go away. Dad, I pray that You would amputate
the dead areas of our relationship, so that You can make it whole. I
desire that our relationship would bring you honor and glory, and
would be an example of Godly mother-daughter relationships.
I thank You for her in my life. I am better person because of her
presence in my life.
In jesus Name I pray, Amen.

I am going to Florida, yea!!!
Thank You for waking me up this morning, and on time. Please forgive
for masterbating. I need to stop that. Please help me and strengthen
in the regard, and continue to work on me that area, as in all areas.
Forgive me for my time card. I am not going to try and justify myself.
Thank You for the vanpool, again. Thank You for allowing me talk with
Hazel. I pray that I not allow this relationship to carry me away from
You, and that I am not tempted by him.
I know what Paul means by I see another law working in my members, in
my body. I do the things that I don't want to do. I pray that I would
yield my members to Your righteousness unto holiness.
I keep thinking about fellowship. Thank You for the fellowship that I
have with You through Jesus Christ. Thank You for calling me in that
fellowship with Him and for the communion of the Holy Spirit. Dad,
cleanse my mind and my thoughts. I pray that I not oversleep again, I
don't want to steal from You.
I praise You for the heart that Hazel has. I pray that he would harken
his ear to what You desire him to do, and what You have called him to
do for your glory. I know he is because he is going to have his
health checked out, and I know that I have prayed about that. I thank
You for both answered and unanswered prayer.
Wash him as You are washing me with Your word.
In Jesus name,
Amen

Christmas MPBC Fellowship
Wow, where to start. How thank You, thank You, thank You! That was so
awesome on Sunday. Dad, You are way awesome and cool. I think that I
was fully surrendered to Your will. Thanks for Liz and her artistry.
Thank You for the kiss from Rev. Carroll. You know my heart melted
when you did that. I know that kiss was frum You. Thank You for Tish
and how her presence ministered to me. Wow, there is so much strength
in my sister. I look forward to the day when she totally steps out in
You. What kind of woman will she be? Well, only You know that answer.
I thank You for Daphne. I pray for Renna, and that she would overcome
her social anxieties. I thank You for Parker and how he was keeping
time for me. I was starting to loose my confidence for a second,
You/he encourage me on. I thank You for Your Spirit and how He was
moving my hands. Okay, that was so cool. Now that I think of it, Your
spirit has been there whenever I would play--even when I was a child.
How is that possible?
I thank You for the Christmas fellowship. It was too funny.
I thank You for even the argument between my mother and I the day
before, even on my birthday. Okay, like, I know that was from the
enemy. She is not my enemy. I thank You for the conversation between
Hazel and I. I am so glad that he understand what is going on with
me. I pray that You would prosper him so that he can get gifts for
his daughters on Christmas Day--Laptops for both the girls, and the
Kendel fire for Tennne.
I pray that today I would continue to walk in You, to walk worthy of
that high calling in Christ. Help me to become the person that You
have designed me to be. Dad, I want to be a concert pianoist. I want
to proclaim and glorify Your name, Your Son, Jesus Christ. Yes, it is
going to take alot of work on my part but I am willing to do it. Yes,
my Mom wanted me to be a famous musician, well, and so do I now. I am
not going to worry about all of the attention, because I know that it
is You who will get that attention. Dad, I pray that I will surrender
to Your leading and guiding in this endeavor. I am so excited!!!!! To
You be the Glory, power, dominion, and honor! Let me not be tempted or
distracted from the mission for you have sent me.
In Jesus Name, Amen.

I am Your glory, thank You!
Thank you so much for providing for me, for providing a warmer way to
work today!! I am so glad that I was obedient yesterday in all things.
However, I now know that all things don't come from you though. So
let me know if this something you want me to pursue, and keep my eyes
opened what it is you want me to do. How do you want me to commute? As
I always may you be glorified know matter how I commute. I pray that
the gospel be preached through me in my life.
Keep your hand of protection upon Rachel. I pray that she would come
home, back to MPBC. I pray that her eyes would be opened. I pray for
the renewing of her mind, just as you have renewed mine own. I pray
that she would find the joy that you promise to all of us.
Please, help me to wake up without the use of coffee.
Thank You for the beauty that I know is in the world that You created.
It is because of sin that it is ugly. Thank You for your Son< jesus,
the light of the world.
I want to return to women's ministry for you and noone else. Forgive
me for despising this ministry. You don't despise none of your people.
Forgive me for even despising and hating myself. You don't despise or
hate/loathe me. In fact, it is the total opposite. You have nothing
but love for me and for women. You love the head and the body. The
body was created from the head. A woman is the glory of every man. And
Man is Your glory. Thank You for purging me of my sin. Thank You
making me everyday.
In Jesus Name, Amen.
