One Thing I know For Sure

Today I would like to share a personal experience, one of my 'God stories'. I believe that this experience has a message for all of us. This gave me absolute proof of the one thing that I positively know for sure, that God loves us all more than we can really ever know. The details of this is included in my book, My Extraordinary Walk, in Chapter 15, Extreme Love. This all started with a prayer. I had been feeling unloved by the people around me. I believed that it was

Be Intentional

To be intentional means to move or act in a deliberate manner. To do something on purpose. To make a conscious decision towards an intended goal. It means that the desired outcome was not achieved by accident, coincidence or chance. Being intentional requires that you knowingly consider the response to your actions. God is intentional. He is deliberate in His every action. And every time He responds to us it is for a designed purpose. With an expected and known reactio

Dear Candis

Dear Candis, You know how mommy always say that you should give people their flowers while they are alive. Well today, I would like to give you some flowers. I don't think that there is anything unsaid between us. I believe that you know exactly how I feel about you. And I believe that I know exactly how you feel about me. However there are some things that I would like to say to you publicly. You are the most kind, the most selfless, the most caring person that I know.

Yes to Your Way Lord

I am sure that none of us could ever imagine saying no to the Lord. But the truth is that we say no everyday. We say no when we live our lives as we see fit. We say no when we continue to live in our sin. And we say no when don't acknowledge Him daily. I think the Lord deserves more 'yeses' from all of us. He is better to us than any of us deserve. If we just say, yes Lord. Our lives would be better for it. He has plans for our lives. Plans for us to prosper and not

What Are Chapter Posts?

If you follow me on Facebook, you may have seen my recent 'chapter posts'. These are color coded posts with information from my book., My Extraordinary Walk. I made these to let you know what my book is about without giving you all the juicy details. I have only spoken publicly about one chapter. Which is chapter number 5, Nothing But The Blood, where I detail the process of how I received His Holy Spirit. There are 19 small, easy to read chapters in book, so there is a

Happy Anniversary

This week end marks a huge accomplishment in my life. As of May 18th 2018, me and my husband have been married for 16 years. That may not be much to some and it may seem like a life time to others. But for me it seems like no time at all. It seems like just yesterday that me, Jay and little Darius stood in front of Elder Webb reciting our vows. It wasn't planned but Darius stood right up front with us and looking back at the pictures I would not change a thing. Marriage

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all mother's everywhere. Especially my mother, Sharone Pace. I am so thankful to God that I still have her in my life, There is something special about a mother's love. She loves you because you are hers, just because you are a part of her. She loves you so much that she would risk her life to protect you. It's a very powerful love that creates a strong bond. We realize this but sometimes we take it for granted. We take it for granted because we t

Song Lyrics

You ever hear a song and be like, 'it's alright', then you listen to the words and you fall love with it. This has happened to me on more than one occasion. But there is this one song that really caught me off guard. It's a gospel song and I find myself singing my heart out every time I listen to it. It really speaks to my heart and my experience with the Lord. I feel like it expresses my love for Him and all He has done for me. First I want to says that I do not own any

The Importance of Prayer

What is prayer? The dictionary says that it is an earnest hope or wish. Personally I believe that prayer is so much more than that. Another definition I came across is, a solemn request for help or expression of thanks addressed to God or an object of worship. This definition is more in tune to what I think. But to put it more simply, prayer is our conversations with the Lord. It is beneficial for us to talk to God. It is one of the most significant things we can do as

The Unseen World Around Us, Ephesians 6:10-17

There are good and bad forces all around us. Guiding us and influencing our thoughts and actions. We need to be aware that there are things working together for our good but there are also things that work against us. For me it is all very black and white, good or evil, positive or negative, right or wrong. My outlook is that everything is either heavenly inspired or it is not. This world is full of distractions and I believe that anything that distracts you from God's pu

Conviction Before Repentance

In the world today there seems to be a lack of true repentance. Repentance means to turn away from sin, to change, to regret your misdeeds and wrong doings. There are many people who say they love God, that pay their tithes and offerings, who even hold positions in their church but continue to live a worldly lifestyle. I believe this is because they are not convicted for their sins. Maybe they do not realize that they are sinning or maybe they know and believe that everyth

Choose Me Lord

I find myself in a place where I just want to be used by the Lord. It doesn't matter when, where or how. I just want him to use me. I can imagine myself as a small child with my hand raised, jumping up and down, anxiously saying ooh, ooh, ooh Lord pick me, choose me, I'll do it. Not knowing what the task is or what it would require of me, just eager to do something for the Lord. This also makes me think of what it could've been like to be with the Lord before our lifetime

A God of My Own Understanding

I believe I first heard this term on YouTube. As I was listening to the testimony of a man who decided to get to know God for himself. This term spoke volumes to me because I did not know Him personally. I always went to the church house, to my pastor to other people to find out who God was. I had gone to church my whole life and yet I was still in a place of uncertainty, where I was not sure if I really knew Him at all. At this time, I knew what I had been told about Him

Why I Don't Like to Say That I'm Saved

When I hear others say that they are saved, I ponder just a bit because it sounds so complete and final. Like they have made it to the finish line, it sounds like they are safe and their job is done. It makes me think about the games that we played when we were little. Games like kick ball and baseball. When you made it back to the home plate you were safe and they couldn't get you out any more. That was the final destination and you could finally breathe a sigh of relie

Marriage is a Love That's Worth Fighting For

Every year me and my friends get together for a marriage retreat. This is a time that we seek to be closer to God, closer to our spouses and closer to each other. We all look forward to this annual event. For a chance to reconnect with friends, have fun and participate in daily bonding sessions. Where we not only bond with our spouses but with each other. And we always leave this retreat with our marriages strenthened in some way. For the last two years my friends have t

A Love That Surpasses All Understanding

For this title I am replacing the word peace with love because today I want to talk about God's love. I have been on this journey, my walk with Christ for just a little over two years. I have learned a lot. During this time God has revealed so much to me, things about myself and things about him. But the one thing that I learned that I am one hundred percent sure about is that God loves us, so very much. He loves us to a degree that I am not sure if I will ever fully be a

Because God Told Me To

It has been a continual prayer of mine for the Lord to present me with opportunities to speak about him. Since I found God, I have a passion to share of his love, his grace and mercy. Now when I was asking for these things I was only talking about speaking to someone whose path I may cross or a chance to speak to my friends and family about him. And I was always granted a moment to do just that. The thing about God is that, when he answers your prayers, he will not only g

This Will All be Over Soon

This is about a message I received yesterday morning. Now before I tell you what the message was I want to tell you what I prayed about the night before. Before I went to bed I talked to the Lord about a lot of things. But specifically I spoke to him about me being so distracted lately. Every since I finished my book, I have had so much on my mind Everything from posting videos, to managing a website, this blog, my job, my family. I just got a lot going on right now. S

...Not Now Lord Part 2

I don't want too sound cocky but I knew I was going to get the scholarship. The way the Lord had answered my prayers. He had given me exactly what I asked for. This had to work and it did. When I received the message from my publisher that I did indeed win a scholarship, I had yet another reason to give him praise. The essay I wrote was titled Why I Want To Be An Author.
