You know it’s been crazy these last couple of months in our world today. Happy New Year by the way! It’s definitely been a while. My darling Uncle Simuel passed on January 2, 2017 and that just took a toll on me. He was my biggest fan and greatest supporter. It’s because of him, I have to be excellent in everything I do. I’m better now and excited to share my views.
As I was saying, it’s been crazy these last couple of months. The world has been uneasy and I haven’t heard of so many people passing away back to back in my immediate circle. I’m like wow! Ok God! You got my attention! He showed me that life is too short and when we have the opportunity to make change then we need to do it.
I’ve spent most of my time back in New Orleans and was on the nonstop go with planning the funeral, the repast, reviewing my uncle’s things and cleaning out his apartment back in Houston. December and January were like omg this is how we end and begin a year? Huh God? I was overwhelmed and was searching for his never-ending strength.
I had to take a step back and look at all the blessings in the midst of all the drama and grief. There was some significant ones at that. It’s like so much was going on at one time. Smack left, hit right… when this happens I encourage you to just stop. Look at all He has already done and where He has brought you! Our God is great and He will and has never failed! Let Him work out things how He intended it. As long as you do your part, God will do the rest.
As I mentioned, I haven’t been home, in Los Angeles, CA to attend my wonderful church on this side of heaven, One Church LA. I know I could live stream but my tasks at hand would not allow. I went to church on yesterday and PT, that’s what we call Pastor Touré Roberts, really enlightened me on some things, as he always do. Lol
Since Trump has been nominated in office, now officially inaugurated, there has been nonstop riots, protests, a lot of chaos and a strong disconnect in our country. I am concerned with the polarization of America because a kingdom divided itself cannot stand.
The enemy comes to distract. The whole thing has been a distraction. We have to know that we are spirit filled believers and everything will be alright! Are you so distracted that you forgot who you are? We can’t be full of faith and full of anxiety. The power of change comes from within.
Needless to say, the year of 2017, is the Year of Alignment. Trust in God to supply what we need to serve where He has called us. Do we? Do we trust God to supply our needs? Let’s have faith that He will give us what we need to carry out His work. God has the final say in every situation.
7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.
-Matthew 7:7-8
