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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 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

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. Sherry R Kirkland Book Camp Stanton Publishing House 10-8-2017 Why I Want to Be an Author The question

There is something about me being asleep that allows the Lord to communicate with me easier. Maybe it's because I 'm not distracted or because I'm more relaxed or maybe it's just because I'm more receptive. I really don't know how it works, I just know that it does. If you have read my book you know that I receive a lot of dreams. Outside of my daily walks, I frequently receive answers to my prayers through my dreams. On this particular day October 4, 2017 I received gui

I am sure you all have noticed by now the cover has changed since my first announcement. Don't get me wrong I really love the original cover but I know that I was trying to hide. From the very beginning I did not want to be on the cover at all. I have always been the type of person to avoid attention. I never wanted to be in the spotlight. I was perfectly okay with being the silent observer and keeping my thoughts and opinions to myself. Things are different now. I am

My Extraordinary Walk is my personal testimony. It is about me finding God and forging a personal relationship with Him. It is in Him that I found my passion and purpose for life. As I drew closer to him he drew closer to me and that's when my whole life has changed. I began to experience God, which is something that I never knew was even possible. For me getting to know God was easy. I did this through daily prayer, worship and reading his word. I never took a day off
