A Daughter Of Heaven A SOLDIER 4 CHRIST

I am a soldier in the army of my God. The Lord Jesus Christ is my commanding officer. The Holy Bible is my code of conduct. Faith, prayer, and the Word are my weapons of warfare. I have been taught by the Holy Spirit, trained by experience, tried by adversity, and tested by fire.

I am a volunteer in this army, and I am enlisted for eternity. I will either retire in this army at the second coming or die in this army; but I will not get out, sell out, be talked out, or pushed out. I am faithful, reliable, capable, and dependable.

If my God needs me, I am there. If He needs me in the Sunday School to teach the children, work with the youth, help adults or just sit and learn, He can use me because I am there! I am a soldier.

I am not a baby. I do not need to be pampered, petted, primed up, pumped up, picked up, or pep talked. I am a soldier. No one has to call me, remind me, write me, visit me, entice me, or lure me. I am a soldier. I am not a wimp. I am in a place, saluting my King, obeying His Orders, Praising His name, and Building His Kingdom.

No one has to send me flowers, gifts, food, cards, candy or give me handouts. I do not need to be cuddled, cradled, cared for, or catered to. I am committed. I cannot have my feelings hurt bad enough to turn me around. I cannot be discouraged enough to turn me aside. I cannot lose enough to cause me to quit.

When Jesus called me into this army, I had nothing. If I end up with nothing I will still come out ahead. I will win. My God has and will continue to supply all of my needs. I am more than a conqueror. I will always triumph. I can do all this through Christ.

The devil cannot defeat me. People cannot disillusion me. Weather cannot weary me. Sickness cannot stop me. Battles cannot bruise me. Money cannot buy me. Governments cannot silence me and men cannot handle me.

I am a soldier. Even death cannot destroy me. For when my commander calls me from this battlefield he will promote me to captain and then allow me to rule with Him.

I am a soldier in the army and I'm marching claiming victory I will not give up, I will not turn around. I am a solder marching HEAVEN BOUND.. I am a daughter of heaven a soldier 4 Christ

HANDS

A basketball in my hands is worth about $19
A basketball in Michael Jordan's hands
is worth about $33 million
It depends whose hands it's in
A baseball in my hands is worth about $6
A baseball in Chicago White Sox's Mark Buehrle hands is a perfect game
It depends whose hands it's in
A tennis racket is useless in my hands
A tennis racket in Andre Agassi's hands
is worth millions
It depends whose hands it's in
A rod in my hands will keep away an angry dog
A rod in Moses' hands will part the mighty sea
It depends whose hands it's in
A slingshot in my hands is a kid's toy.
A slingshot in David's hand is a mighty weapon
It depends whose hands it's in
Two fish and 5 loaves of bread in my hands is a couple of fish sandwiches
Two fish and 5 loaves of bread in Jesus' hands will feed thousands
It depends whose hands it's in
Nails in my hands might produce a birdhouse.
Nails in Jesus Christ's hands will
Produce salvation for the entire world
It depends whose hands it's in
As you see it depends whose hands it's in.
So put your concerns, your worries, your fears, your hopes, your dreams, your families and your relationships in God's hands because...
It depends whose hands it's in

HOLY ABCS

Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold on to what you know
Imagine life without Universal Love
Joy would cease to be
Keep thanking ALL for EVERYTHING
Love imparts to thee
Move out of "Camp Complaining"
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with prayer
To "thank" is a command
Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky
We'll run the race with gratitude
Xalting God most high
Yes, there will be good times and yes some will be bad, but...
Zion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

HE STILL MOVES MOUNTAINS...

WOW what an amazing day today.. I cant even explain it I can only say that God still moves mountains.

I was invited to a new church today and gladly accepted the invitation!! The devil worked very hard and diligently to keep me from going he put so many obstacles in my way even up to the time I stepped foot in the church. WOW am I excited for what God has for me. For the devil to try his hardest to keep me away... Today my world and life was given confirmation peace and all doubt was removed from my heart. FAITH is what you HAVE to live by in order to push on to the next level.. I stepped out in faith last year and God taught me how to fly :) I cant imagine where I would be had I kept going in my will instead of the Lords... I can say that I have never felt such fullfillment then I do now... Thank you God for your faithfullness your loves and most importantly YOUR GRACE I'm forgiven and will never turn back... Like I was told today.. IT'S OVER!!

amen

Bitter and Broken? WHOLE?

She wants a white wedding, a knight in shining armor,
Willing to provide and protect from anything that comes to harm her
He is prince charming his presence is heart warming
Bright smile, nice shoes and he smell so good it’s alarming
He is manicured and manner able and manhood oozes of his pores
He is good to his mother, a gentleman one your grandmother would adore
He is strong and gentle, generous and hospitable speaks well he has it all its there
He understands your strength and womanhood so he handles you with care
And your criteria is non-negotiable he must meet all the above
Funny in her world she doesn’t have to be perfect but he does
But what I find to be a trip is how quick the script can flip
When chics chase a million dollar weddings but have a two dollar relationship
Am I lying? Don’t know why you’re so surprised to hear the truth
Pretty women put themselves in painful positions for the sake of being cute
Per that hair until it sizzles, girdle to pull the middle
Girl I saw the shoes & had to get them they fit tight, but really they’re just too little
Then she says I’ll get them stretched but getting them stretched is just a quick fix
You’d be better off if you simply bought shoes that fit
But you won’t put that much in your relationship; relationships would take a different direction
If I have to love you like Christ loved the church then love me like you love your shoe collection
But why would I be silly enough to think you’d find the right pair of shoes
When you’re not patient enough to wait on the right dude
And when he does come and its not the pretty picture you pictured some of you tell your future husband to run along
Because some pretty women think every time a guy says hello it’s a come on….
And I know some guys are dead wrong sisters the bottom line
Is that the quality of men has declined…but there still are good men
With a great work ethic willing to work at it, work for it, work toward it, work to it,
Problems rise mami no problem we’ll work threw it
I’ll work on it, work with it, I’ll work magic
Work on our future for better or worse we’ll work passed it
And after all that work one thing is for certain
I am a good man and I ain’t scared of working
But baby girl if you’re not ready to work you may not be ready to marry
Because the only place success comes before work is in the dictionary
They say when a man finds a wife he finds a good thing
But he cant find you because you are chasing fairytales and diamond rings
Unrealistic expectations, looking for validation
But there’ll be no happily ever after only disaster without God as a foundation
And stop comparing potential mates to your past men
If you miss that negro so much then go and be with him
You see marriage is forever but what looks pretty fades
But true inner beauty will sustain you all your days
But when you have such a shallow criteria for your soul-mate what that behavior displays
Is that pretty women can have the ugliest ways
Because its not about your physical attributes or your facial features
God don’t like ugly and he aint crazy bout pretty either…

Lost Love

I didn't give up on Love I just gave up on YOUR Love....

Your love required me to not love myself
Your love required me to hurt and cry
Your love was never there for me.. but there for everyone else

I couldn't handle what your love had to offer me...
it was the left overs of what you gave everyone else..

Your love sold me a dream... a dream of happiness but reality was broken promises
Your love wasn't love at all..
Your love hurt my kids...
Your love required late nights crying myself to sleep

I just couldn't do YOUR love anymore....

Coulda Been You

Damn, just found a photo of me and you
Just heard a tune we used to make love to
Them were the days when you were my baby
I thought my life was perfect
But you weren’t real with me
You made yourself suspect to the point I couldn’t trust you
You pissed me off everyday
All we did was argue
You was the issue
You stressed me out to the point I can’t breathe

And it’s sad to see so much has changed
It’s crazy
All I can say
Boy, it could’ve been you
It could’ve been you
It could’ve been you
It hurts to know
Cuz a part of me still cares, girl
It’s strange, (?) coulda been a better way
Boy, it could’ve been you
It could’ve been you
You know it should’ve been you
It’s too late, boy

It hits my stomach that you couldn’t treat me like a woman
And I bend over backwards
I don’t understand
You playing me
You claim to be with me
Soon as I fall asleep
You with another
I don’t get it
It’s like my love was never good enough
I wish I knew your intentions before
I swear to God
I wouldn’t push so hard
I would’ve seen it for what it was....
