don't know about anyone else, but I cannot believe the year 2012 has basically come and gone so quickly. Where did all the time go? As we ushered in the New Year, I embraced a winning attitude that proclaimed, "It SHALL be well in 2012." As such, I believed God for restoration and prosperity in every way. Now that the year is almost gone, I think now is an appropriate time to see how close we are to making the mark. Has this year been all that you wanted it to be? Did you receive your big breakthrough? Did things get better at all or are you still going in circles, facing the same problems that were there before? Find out what to do inside...
I once heard a preacher say, "You have to see it before you see it". What he was basically talking about was the importance of having a vision when pursuing any thing in your life. I personally think having a vision can't be underestimated. It is one of the foundational building blocks when creating the life you want and the life God has prepared for you. Read more inside...

I came across an interesting quote the other day that really made me think. It said, "The best way to prepare for life is to begin to live." How true! Unfortunately, far too many people cannot live life to its fullest because of their preoccupation with the stuff and things that make up the circumstances of life: challenges with finances, employment, relationships, emotions, and so much more. When we begin to feel this way, it is imperative that we remember who we are and whose we are. Read more inside...
There are occasions in our lives in which we feel we accomplish so much by getting accolades, promotions, and degrees for our self-assurance that what we "have" will sustain us and give us a sense of security. The word, INDEPENDENT, tells us that we can have it all and not depend on anyone to obtain it. However, if we know the God we serve, we will also know that the achievements that we obtained didn't just rest upon what we thought we could do on our own accord. Read more inside...
Having watched your share of fairy tale movies, it is certain that you may have heard the old adage, "Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?" Sounds familiar? Well, fairy tale or not, in real life, this is a viable question that we should ask ourselves when we look in the mirror at ourselves, both spiritually and naturally. In fact, when you look in the mirror, who do you see? Do you see a woman that is fearfully and wonderfully made? Or, do you see someone that you find fault with, wish you could change, or feel saddened by? Do you see a woman that is free to live and enjoy her life? Or, perhaps you see a woman that, just like the four boundaries of the mirror, you feel boxed in and that there is no way out. Read more inside...
Once again, I count it a privilege and an honor to share with you this month. You may recall that at the beginning of this year, I made a declaration of, "It shall be well in 2012." I meant that from the bottom of my heart. And although I am walking in total anticipation, I must tell you that I am in complete awe of what our Heavenly Father has already done for His children in the first quarter of the year. I have seen people receive a new lease on life through gainful employment, restored relationships and business breakthroughs. As for me personally, God has enlarged my territory in such a way that things that I've been in prayer about for years are now at my fingertips. How great is our God!
Scripture says weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5). And, unless you've done some deep heart wrenching weeping, you can never fully appreciate the joy that comes in the morning. The release in expecting new beginnings, new hope, fresh horizons, and newness of spirit is absolutely awesome! The glory is God's because it is him that restores, renews, refreshes, regenerates, and rejuvenates our spirits in its weakened state. It is He that answers our cry, and it is He that takes upon Himself to give us of Himself- His love, His peace, and His joy. Read more inside...
I heard an interesting fact about a certain fish called the Oscar fish. This particular fish when placed in the right environment has the ability to reach its potential size of 16 inches. However, if placed in a limited environment, such as a small fish tank, this fish will never grow to reach its full potential. After hearing this interesting fact it made me wonder: How many people have lived, died, and never reached their full potential because their tank was too small?
