Becoming A Woman Of Excellence


A woman of excellence
Is what I long to be
Filled with your godly wisdom
So it is part of me

A woman of integrity
No matter what I face
Standing up for righteousness
And for your saving grace

A woman of destiny
Living out your plan
Knowing where you’d have me walk
Being guided by your hand

A woman of promise
Standing on your word
Holding on to all the truths
While carrying out your work

A woman of compassion
For the ones in the dark
Those that do not know your love
And have darkness in their hearts

A woman that will never
Compromise the faith
With what the world may offer
But will keep the narrow way

A woman who loves Jesus
And will only follow Him
Gladly to give up the world
So His light can shine within

Lord this is my earnest prayer
As a daughter by your grace
Grow in me these qualities
As I walk with you in faith

Where I belong




Sometimes I'm saddened by the choices I've made
So many tears I have cried
Got what I wanted but the dream seemed to fade
Still feeling unsatisfied

But You saved me
Forgave me
How You've shown
You'd never leave me all alone
Oh, Lord

Every time I lose my place
The beauty of Your grace
Shines a light so I can see
Every time I lose my way
You make it all O.K.
I feel You're love surrounding me
You are here calming my fears
You lead me back with Your sweet song
You're where I belong

You're always there to guide me through my mistakes
You've never once left my side
The way You pick me up each time my heart breaks
The way You always stood by

I'd feel You
You'd move right through my heart
We never really were apart
Oh, Lord

Every time I lose my place
The beauty of Your grace
Shines a light so I can see
Every time I lose my way
You make it all O.K.
I feel You're love surrounding me
You are here calming my fears
You lead me back with Your sweet song
You're where I belong

I will always put my faith in You
'Cause I know You understand
I will try my best to follow You
'Cause I know You've got a plan

Just to have You in my life
Is far more than enough
You are everywhere around me now
I can feel Your precious love

All the wonders of Your ways
I'm constantly amazed
How You make me safe and sound

It's the way You lift me up
You've given me so much
Only You would never let me down

You are here calming my fears
You lead me back with Your sweet song
You're where I belong

Girl look at you

Girl, just look at you, with your pretty self. You are so beautiful! Not only are you beautiful, but you have the nerve to be talented and gifted by God. Hold your head up Girl and know that you are loved and appreciated.

Don’t give the enemy any place to cause you to have low self-esteem or doubt. You are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made. This is your year to decree it and speak it! This is the year of new beginnings. So get your step on Girl, because God is faithful to perform all that He has promised to you! Be confident in Him and His word. The words you speak from your mouth determine your outcome. Why not speak good and positive things over your life Girl? You are not defeated but rather you are more than a conqueror.

You have been through a lot in your life and look at you now, just as pretty and as strong as ever! Oh, how blessed you are. Look what God has done and look where He has brought you from. Begin to bless God and praise Him for all that He has done, and for making you so beautiful! He had you in His precious hands all the time. Your life is orchestrated by Him. He knows you and what is best for you. Believe that He has even greater things in store for you and your family. Girl, get over the silly stuff and grab hold of faith. Seek God as never before. Sure, times are hard, but God is Good! Learn to love who He has made you to be. There is no one like YOU. –

Enjoy the Love of Jesus and Enjoy Life!

ONLY GOD




I am just sitting here looking out my sliding glass doors. The Lord’s beauty just overwhelmed me and my thought was ONLY GOD. The sky is clear blue, and the trees are very still and beautiful. The birds are chirping; the sun is not out; this morning is so peaceful. Just to see God’s creation is so wonderful! ONLY GOD!

I began thinking how only God could have brought me through this last illness. ONLY GOD! ONLY GOD! ONLY GOD! A year ago, I could not even get out of bed or a chair. My muscles had totally collapsed, and my mind was so confused trying to deal with the new problems. My faith had not wavered, but I was having a difficult time accepting the immobility that besieged my body. ONLY GOD!

Satan was at his post, working very hard trying to put my faith done. As I lay in bed one evening, he began attacking me saying, “Where is your God? You are alone and cannot get out of bed. Where is he?”
I did not know what to do. I was hysterical. Satan was laughing and asked, “Where is the God you serve?”

Immediately, I realized that Satan was at his prime job of trying to make me deny God and follow him. I was totally embarrassed. The thoughts had caused me to become disoriented. I rebuked Satan, dried my tears, and looked up to God. My thoughts turned to Jesus, my Savior, because I knew He was the only one that could pull me through these tumultuous times. ONLY GOD! ONLY GOD!

While sitting here, I am reminded of GOD’S AMAZING GRACE. I see His GRACE working with me everyday. Only God could have pulled me through this illness. I did not have to do anything, but be still and know HE IS GOD. I can get out of bed and a chair by my own volition. ONLY GOD! I can walk better and have more mobility than I have had in the last months. ONLY GOD! Everyday I am getting stronger and stronger. My face, hands, body, and skin are like new! ONLY GOD! God is still molding this body into a vessel to be used for Him. I am astonished at GOD’S AMAZING GRACE!
