About Me

My photo
Every day I pray and battle with my mission to start pleasing God and stop satisfying myself and appeasing others. Defeats in this battle have cost me a lot, where prayers, praise and God’s Word have brought some miraculous victories. It is not because my daddy is a preacher or because I was always in church, that I see God not as a casualty but a necessity. However, at 23 my experiences and understanding that IT MAY NOT BE EASY TO DO THE RIGHT THING BUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF DOING THE WRONG THINGS ARE TOO HARD TO DEAL WITH, have brought the Sunday school lessons, the sermons, and the prayers into perspective. Being perfect is unpractical but being young and saved is not! I've done a whole lot of something for nothing. But after meeting Jesus Christ I decided I would give anything to have Him as my Everything!

Wait, Trust and Get Prepared

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY!!!


Psalm 27:14 Wait for the Lord; Be strong, and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.
James 2:20 ...faith without works is dead


No one likes to wait and many grow weary and weak while waiting. 


However, the wait period is very essential  and takes a lot of strength. The wait period  should be seen as an opportunity to get ourselves together.  Most likely we will never experience a day where money is raining from the sky, our dream car will be parked in front of our house with a bow, the bill collectors will say forget your balance, the CEO will call you and saying he has a job for you without you ever filling out an application or having an interview, etc.  So, don't waste your waiting time by just hoping and expecting without working. 




I pray that your strength is renewed while you wait for your circumstances to be transformed, promises to be kept and favor of others to be shown.  Ashlee
