This is a poem I wrote to hang in the house.

Bless This House

Lord Bless this house you have provided
And let your presence be known
Guide our foot steps and direct our path
So that your love will be shown

Help us remember as we look around
You are Jehovah Jirah our provider
You are Jehovah M'Kaddesh
Our redeemer and sanctifier

Touch every person in this house
So they may know who you are
Your grace, mercy and love
Will reach them from far

Let your spirit dwell in this place
let no-one leave the way they came
Touch their hearts and renew their mind
We praise you, hallowed be thy name

Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I've had test after test. Did good on 2, not so good on 1 and still don't know about the 4th. I won't find out until next Tuesday. I wish I could find out today when I go to class.

GOD is good.

I am so glad today is Friday. I did pretty good on my first test in college. After being out of college for 6 years its kinda scary. But Prayer helps you through those things.

Sometimes I wish I was a stay at home wife. I get tired of getting up and coming to work. I think its worse now that I am in school. I have to come in at 6am to make up my hours for going to school. I am not trying to complain I'm just letting out my feelings.

I just wish I could get my business off the ground so I could work for myself. I am going back to school to get my accounting degree. I don't plan on working as a CPA for anyone but myself. Dealing with other peoples money is too stressful. However I have this strong desire to teach. At this point I felt like GOD wanted me to go for accounting so when our business starts up I will know about the money side of things but lately I have this strong desire to teach. So now I am confused. I don't want to go out of the will of GOD. I don't know if its just my feelings about teaching or is GOD trying to tell me something. I will have to pray about this.

Its wierd going to school and working. So much of my time is spent studying I feel like I haven't had anytime with my husband. I don't like that. He starts school Thursday. He attends a christian college. They have a lot of rules. They require students to attend certain events. I know that will take more time away from us.

Tonight I will spend time with my husband.

I still feel this burning desire that I need to be doing something in the ministry. I still haven't heard from GOD on what that is. I will be patient. I do not want to do anything out of his will.

Whats up with blogger. I look at someone's link on my site and then hit the back button and the links I had disappeared. I have to log off and log back on to see them.

This weekend was good but went by too fast. We (my husband and me)babysat our nephew. He is 2, will be 3 in October. He is the cutest little thing.

GOD is good. I forgot to write about the second car we are getting. We have only had one car since we have been married (Jan 99). Thats a long time to have 1 car. Now that we are both in school and I am working we have to have 2 cars. GOD worked it out and we are buying my mother in laws car that she doesn't drive anymore. It needs transmisson work but thats ok. I am fixing to call the repair shop and ask if they are done. They have had it since last Wednesday.

GOD is awesome.

I keep asking about marketing but I should have said advertising. If anyone is familar with this please let me know. I am very interested in promoting my website. Thanks
Its Friday I only have one class today. I have been coming to work at 6 am to make up the hours I am missing for school. I will have to get use to this. It has been 6 years since I was in college WOW. I could have my BA and MA already. But this is the plan GOD has for my life.

I am trying not to let being to busy with school and these crazy hours working interfer with my time with GOD. I am trying to remain focused. I thank GOD for this wonderful oppurtunity.

I plan on getting some rest this weekend and do some homework. How exciting is that? Ooh I can't wait.

It's Monday. I had my first class at 12pm today another one at 4:15. I was so nervous I thought I was going to be sick. When I was in Junior college we had desks like in high school. This college is much bigger and they have lecture halls where they hold classes. In junior college classes weren't that big. There were a lot of people in my class today. I am majoring in accounting. I did not think I would have to get up infront of a class and speak ever again unless I became a teacher but I do. My first class we have to give a presentation with 4 complete strangers. I did not get the gift of gab so it's hard for me to hold a conversation unless I've known someone for a while. I'm glad we have to talk about class stuff.

It is soo hot here I think were almost to 100 degrees.

I have this burning sensation when I think about our ministry. We currently aren't ministering anywhere but I feel like GOD wants us to do something. I don't know what. I have been praying and asking him what it is we need to do. I don't want to do anything that is not in his will. I will continue to pray until I hear from him.

I am still looking for help with marketing my website if anyone knows anybody working in that area.

Friday, August 15, 2003

The past two weeks I have been in training. My boss is teaching me the stuff he does. Numbers, numbers and more numbers. Writing journal entries to reclassify, accruing payroll, inventory, work in process. I hope I can remember all of this. I took a lot of notes.

Monday I start school. I still can't believe I'm going back.

Does anyone know anything about marketing or signing up for search engines. I am really wanting to get my website out there and promote it. Please email me my tagboard is not working.

Not much else going on here. Still madly in love with my wonderful husband. I thank GOD for him.

I have 2 weeks until school starts. I am going back to get my Bachelors degree. I am 26 years old and am starting to feel intimitated that I will be in class with a bunch of people under the age of 22. I have always had a problem with low self esteem. GOD is breaking that though. I will need your prayers I always feel like the younger girls are making fun of me. I am in no way a savy dresser. If the out fit didn't come together I usually won't get it. I'm not good at picking out clothes.

My husband is on his way home. Thank GOD. I miss him so much. He is such a wonderful man of GOD. Do you ever think about the stuff GOD does for you and it makes you tingle inside. Thats how I feel when I think about my husband. GOD truly blessed me when he put us together. I'll give you a sneek peek at something I wrote for him.

What I realized when you were gone.

I LOVE YOU more than I did the day you left.
I don't want to be away form you for that long - EVER AGAIN
Your value has increased 100%
I feel your change in me
I hate sleeping in an empty bed
But most importantly GOD showed me that our love for him and each other
will only get stronger, you are a man after GODs own heart, we will always
have each other when no one else understands us, GOD will always be there
for us, he has transformed our old conformed minds and restored us back to him.

Check out my new Forsale on the side under blue rose images. I have things I will be putting on my website forsale. If anyone wants to buy anything and pay by check or money order email me.
There are so many things GOD is working on in me. I don't know if I can keep up. He is awesome. I love him so much. I can't begin to explain how good he has been to me.

I am going to my moms this weekend. I will be a long trip by myself. I will post next week.

My husband left this morning for Atlanta. Him and a friend are driving. I will miss him. I won't see him until Monday. Well my friend at work wanted to take me and another friend out to lunch for our birthdays which was really sweet. So I said I will drive. We walk out side and I look at my vehicle and it is leaning. I knew then I had a flat. I tell you my husband and I have more flats than anyone I know. There is a guy at my job that is great about helping people so he said he would change it. Well it turned out my valve stem (the thing the air goes in) was broke. He took it and had it fixed. It didn't cost anything. God is good. Tires are @ $150 to $200 for our SUV. Thats a lot of money.

Does anyone have any family that they are really close to but can't really be around them because they don't respect the GOD in you. We have family members that smoke and curse around us but I think if they were around a preacher they wouldn't do that. I can't understand why they don't have the same respect for us. Just wondering.

GOD is changing our lives so much. I really have to pay attention to what he tells me.

Monday, July 28, 2003

My husband and I went to my moms this weekend. It was fun. We didn't do much because it was soo hot. My husband is getting ready to go to Manpower (TD Jakes conference) with his friend. So I am going to my moms while he is gone. I hope this day goes by fast at work. It seems to always drag by. I really wanted to go to Juanita Bynums conference but I am doing a lot of training at my job so I couldn't make it. What a crazy week it will be.

Wednesday, July 23, 2003

My husband sent me roses today. That is so sweet. He is wonderful. Not just for sending me roses but just being such a GOD fearing man. GOD has truly transformed us both. If we would not have gotten saved we wouldn't be together but GOD has a purpose for our lives. I thank him for sending me my husband.

GOD is Awesome. Yesterday I was feeling a little down. I felt like my husband and I had not spent a lot of time together lately. So I'm trying to think of stuff to do when I get home because Monday nights he goes to play Basketball. When I get home he tells me hes not going because GOD told him to stay home with me. Wow. That was exactly what I wanted. I asked GOD to show him and he did. I have a lot on my mind I just need to process it before I write about it so I'll be back later.

Monday, July 21, 2003

Sorry I haven't posted. I don't know whats wrong with me lately. I have been so moody. Maybe its my new BC that I am on. Not much going on. I am going back to shcool in August to get my bachelors in Accounting. I plan on owning my own business so I want to know how to run a company. I am learning a lot with my current job. They are great. They are letting me take classes and make up my time for work.

Well Wednesday is my Birthday. I'm not telling that so I get a bunch of Happy B-Days only to share that they are so different as I get older. I remember when I was younger I mean like middle school and high school thinking I can't wait til I'm older. I wonder why we wish our life away so much. I'll only be 26 but the time has flown by. I remember high school like it was yesterday.

I am listening to TD Jakes at work right now. It is so great to be able to listen on the internet. With all of the stuff that goes on around here you need to be able to focus on GOD and listening while I work really helps.

My husband and I discussed not watching TV anymore. Well we will still watch sports and stuff like trading spaces. Things that don't have cursing or sex scenes or talking about other people. We want to tune into GOD more than tune into the TV. We want a close and personal relationship with him. One that requires more prayer and worship and time just for him. I think I will add a link on my web page so I can share some stories about the goodness of GOD. I will start working on it tonight.

I hope all is well with everyone. God Bless

Wow I didn't realize I have not posted in so long. Well last Thursday was my husbands grandmothers funeral. Everything went well. Friday we had a cook out for the 4th. There were so many people in our house I don't think I want to do that again. I sleep a long time on Saturday. I watched Jeepers Creepers what a wierd movie. Sunday we played taboo with my husbands cousin and a friend. It is a fun game. I thought I had a lot more work to catch up on but I kept busy all day yesterday and got most of it done.

My birthday is in a few weeks. I don't know if I'm happy or sad time is going by so fast. I remember being in high school like it was yesterday, its been 8 years.
