The Big Lie Brought Me Into The Truth And Gave Me Something Worth Living For!


They say "You ain't leavin unless it's in a body bag".
Look here partner, I came in a body bag, I'm still wearing that thing and making it look good!
I'm about to explode with excitement!
When I think about where I came from and how far God has brought me to today!
Mercy!
He had a plan for me!
He wanted me to live and not die!
He brought me up out of that place, hell if you will, because it sure wasn't heaven there.
Its been stirring in me all day!
He had a plan for my life!
Amen somebody!
I didn't even know I was going to meet Him, I just knew I had to go.
I saw a couple of pastor's posts today where they posted the place where their lives changed forever, where they finally met God and understood what it all meant.
He brought me out the streets.
He gave me a new name!
He gave me a purpose I never would've seen coming!
He gave me dreams bigger than anyone will ever believe come true, but you best believe those bad boys are going to come true and greater things than these will I do.
My Daddy owns everything and it's His good pleasure to do for me, so you just stay tuned and see what the Lord has done.
I'm going places!  I'm building a legacy!  I'm attracting great wealth and influence every moment of every day and there's gonna come a day when I get to walk in the fullness of my calling.
I'm planning book signings, painting exhibits, groups, teams, churches, conferences, businesses and things so grand I cry every time I think about them.
My grandchildren are going to walk into ministry because Nanny did it.  My children are going to prosper and shake their heads at the things they see their mother do.
My husband is going to stand back in amazement knowing it was true when I said it!
The bible says a man's gift will make room for him and bring him into the presence of kings and great men.
I tell my daughter in law all the time, you know me, but wait until you see what God is about to let me do.
Wait until you see all these dreams you've been hearing me talk about come true.
I'm going to sell out conferences because people are hurting and need someone to come along and remind them who they are and in those cities we're going to go into the streets and search for people to feed while we're there.
I saw a movie this past week with my girlfriends and the entire time I sat in that theater I cried and saw me on that movie screen, I saw my life unfolding for others to see, I saw my dreams coming into existence.  It wasn't even a sad movie y'all!  God kept saying to me, "that's you girl, you can do that, I know you want it, I'm going to give it to you."  I couldn't even talk when I left, tears still streaming down my cheeks.
  I want to further the kingdom!  
Somebody better tell Joyce Meyer my name because she and I need to get together and talk about some things!
Lover's Lane has only just begun and I'm already restless for so much more.
I am that girl!
I am God's willing vessel!
I am a voice for the kingdom!  I am completely sold out for Jesus and I don't care what you tell me I'm gonna change the world!
That girl that came out the streets, broken, strung out, used up and without hope is no more.
He brought out of the valley of the shadow of death and I didn't even have the good sense to be scared while I was down there.
I'm not satisfied!
I want more!
To do more, see more, be more and say more!
All for Jesus!
All for his people!
All for the kingdom!

The Excitement and Predictions of the future

Image
When I leave Alabama, I will not have a job and I never plan to get another. I'm putting my husband in the rightful position he should have had all along, protector and provider. I'm not above waiting tables two or three times a week, because I enjoy it and it's a vehicle for connections, but it's not a priority. Working and generating income are two entirely separate things.  I will be generating income daily. I have a skill that is marketable where I'm going. I'm trusting the universe to take care of me, I'm staying in my vibration of abundance and if it's not fun I really don't want to do it. I have a stock pile of paintings, am painting as we speak and now have a specific audience in mind.  I have plenty of makeup to sell and that will bring me other connections. I'm so excited for this new movement of energy in my life! There is an incubation period of time that has to lapse before we can get there from here, but we will...

What's Different?

What's different you may ask. I'm different, he's different, this time is different. There's so many re-runs that happen when dealing with addiction, people we love who are addicted and our own issues during the process, we sometimes get caught in the loop of the happenings. We have a lot of water under the bridge, when I say a lot of water, I mean seventeen years of water. A lot has happened, hurt, disappointment, panic, anxiety, you name it its happened. This time is different. Why? We are making it different. This time is a new time, something new is happening and we are treating it that way. This time we've both made a decision together as to what helps us progress forward together.  It's not me or him, it's us together. Will the same things happen? I don't know. I'm not living in fear of them. We're discussing what's best for the team, for the future. He's different, beat down, broken in some wa...

That One Call Changes Everything

Image
Man oh man this love thing is something serious! A picture is worth a thousand words right?  This picture has reeled me in time and time again. Anyone who knows me knows the story of Antoine and me.  We've been together and apart for seventeen years.  We met in the streets, both of us addicted to crack. Seventeen years of prison sentences, jail time, street time and then there's the precious good times, few and far between.  We've had a couple of Thanksgiving's together, a couple of birthdays together and two or three Christmas's.  We've had one anniversary together that I can remember.  Seventeen years. He's been struggling that entire time, doing stupid stuff, hurting me, hurting himself and his mother. I've only seen him once since he left almost two years ago and that time was frightening and sad. I've taken calls and I've not taken calls.  I've been nice and I've been mean.  I've been hurt and I've been dis...
