Faith to Endure

Hello beautiful people! So the holiday weekend is over and it’s back to business as usual. I can’t believe it’s almost 2010! It’s amazing to see time fly right before our very eyes. It seems like yesterday that I was graduating from high school, with the whole world as my oyster. It appears as though every year passes by a little faster than the one before. For the good book says, “for we were born only yesterday and know nothing, and our days on earth are but a shadow." (Job 8:9).

As I sat down at the computer this morning and sought God about the topic of choice for today, I heard, “Have the faith to endure.” There are so many challenges and trials that have come and will continue to come our way. Although, we must always trust and believe that the Lord will bring us out as long as we keep the faith and faint not. In the moments that I feel weak or compromised in my spirit I have to go back to Isaiah 40:31, “but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”

Yes, I know from experience, that sometimes having the faith to endure is easier said than done. This is when you have to step out of the “normal routine” and seek God and the things of God like never before. Sometimes you may have to seek the prayers of the intercessors. Sometimes you may have to fast and go before His throne with a sincere heart. Sometimes you have to shut out the things of this world and just spend time with Him and in His presence. Turn off the television, the radio, the phone, and all of the other distractions and bask in the presence of the Lord.

I am going to start off the last month of this year seeking God in a whole new way and on a whole new level. I must have the faith to endure so that I can fulfill Gods good and perfect will for my life. It’s time out for falling victim to the tricks of the enemy and time in for falling in line with the will of the Lord! Let’s make this last month of the year count and watch the blessing of 2010 engulf us!

Holiday Jewlery Specials

I just wanted to take a few moments to tell you about great holiday jewlery specials. For those of you that are looking to buy great quality, high-end jewlery this holiday season look no more! Check out the John Hardy Jewlery Collection by clicking on... "John Hardy ". They have the whole family covered, including something for the kiddies as well.

To share a little information about John Hardy and his collection...

John Hardy is the original Green Designer, creating "sustainable luxury" since 1989. Him and his wife Cynthia work side by side creating an international luxury brand of designer jewelry. Now you all know that I am a lover of both "going green" and family businesses and this is a great combination of both!

In 1997, John and Cynthia acquired a hectare of land at the edge of some rice fields not far from their home in central Bali, for a workshop for their rapidly expanding business. The Hardys were concerned about converting food-producing land, so the design studio and workshop campus is also an organic farm, complete with livestock—cows, goats, poultry, rabbits—and fish ponds. The paths are paved with river stones and lined with tall sugar cane. Heirloom Bali rice grows in paddy fields outside the glass walls of the design center. The food grown here is used to provide the employees (over 700 people) with a healthy lunch. The buildings a low-impact structures built of natural local materials such as bamboo, thatch, adobe, and river stones.

I love the opportunity to support a green business and a family owned business all at the same time!

Feature Friday

Congratulations, you made it through another week in the life of a Saved M.O.M.! Here at Savedmom.com we take time out on Fridays to feature Saved M.O.M.’s . There are so many wonderful mothers that don’t get the recognition they deserve. I am proud to say that this week’s Feature Friday is dedicated to Janyne E. Collins. She currently resides in Kennesaw, GA. Janyne is a mother and a passionate woman of God whom has dedicated her life to helping single mothers.

Janyne received salvation at the age of 21. She recalled, “I was 21 yrs. old and pregnant with my son. My son’s Godmother, my best friend, invited me to study the bible. Five months later I made Jesus Lord of my life.” When asked what being a Saved M.O.M. means to her Janyne explained, “…I am the mother and the father. My son looks to me to be the very best. He counts on me to be an example to him. He counts on me to teach him responsibility. He counts on me to teach him how to love unconditionally. He counts on me to be the God fearing, God loving woman that God calls me to be. He depends on me to support him through his achievements. He depends on me to love him through his mistakes. He counts on me to praise him, to encourage him, to discipline him and love him through it all. Being saved and a single mom means that I need to be all that I can be to help him grow and be a great awesome man for GOD!”

Janyne currently stands on 1 Corinthians 13. She knows that through love and faith we will be led to do great things. Janyne wanted to leave our mothers with these words, “Be the best example you can be for your child.” She recently started Struggling Single Moms, Inc. to help meet the needs of single mothers. To get more information, learn about her community outreach or to donate to her ministry please visit www.helpstrugglingsinglemoms.com. Her first outreach event will be held this Sunday, November 22nd from 3-8 pm. It is the Single Mom's First Annual Thanksgiving Dinner. The dinner location is 6208 Memorial Dr Stone Mountain, GA 30038.

Thursday Prayer

It’s Thursday and you know what that means; today is our designated day of prayer. We will pray together today at 12 pm. If you are not able to physically make it to the prayer meeting location you can join us in spirit. We are continuing to pray for Cheree’s healing, faith and strength. We are praying that the Sullivan family has the favor of the Lord fall upon them like never before. We are also praying for all marriages. There has been such an attack on marriages lately and I would like for us to stand together and pray that spouses can come together and fulfill God’s purpose for His sacred and special marriage covenant. In addition, I am praying that millions of mothers will be touched by this ministry and great works will be done through this ministry. We will pray that God’s will is done in each of these situations. We will also continue to stand on our weekly prayer points listed below. It is so important that we stand together in prayer, “For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.” (Matthew 18:20).

Love should be the motivating force behind EVERYTHING that we do. Therefore, I also want to continue to pray that we operate in love at ALL times, especially when we don’t feel like it. For the word tells us, “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.” (1 Peter 4:8). The word also says, “My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.” (John 15:12). If we can just learn to love always, no matter what, things will always turn out well and happiness will be sure to follow.

Weekly prayer points are as follows…
We are praying that our family, friends and loved ones receive salvation and live lives that are submitted to the Lord.
We are praying that we maintain health and strength in the midst of it all.
We are praying that our children are always covered by the blood of Jesus and they make godly decisions and live submitted lives.
We are also standing with all the mothers attached to this ministry and mothers worldwide that God’s will be done in their lives.
Thank you for standing with us and lifting up the prayer requests that have been laid before us. Remember to thank Him in advance. God bless you!

Interruption

Good morning to each and every one of you! Today I am interrupting our regularly scheduled blog post. We will resume Word Wednesday as scheduled on next week.

I am currently volunteering with Future Foundation for their Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner Program. There are so many families here in Georgia that go without food everyday. As a matter of fact, Georgia is one of the top eleven states in prevalence of food insecurity in America. We all know that Thanksgiving is a time that we look forward to for fellowship and breaking bread with our friends and family. Well, for some families this is not their reality. Along with so many other charitable and non-profit organizations, Future Foundation takes time out during the holiday season to prepare and deliver meals to families in need.

I would like to raise enough money to provide meals to several of these families and I need your help. The Lord has commissioned us to help our fellow man in times of need and lack. “'If one of your countrymen becomes poor and is unable to support himself among you, help him as you would an alien or a temporary resident, so he can continue to live among you.” (Leviticus 25:35). If you will stand with me in this effort and are wiling to donate to this cause please send me an email at info@savedmom.com, to make payment arrangements. Our deadline for donations is Monday, November 23rd and no amount is too small. For we all know what Jesus did with 2 fish and 5 loaves of bread; he fed five thousand (Mathew 14: 13-21)!

If you would like to learn more about Future Foundation and what they are doing you can visit their website at www.future-foundation.com. Thanks for your continued support! Saved M.O.M. has so much to do and this is only the beginning. May the grace of God keep you, the love of God enfold you, and the power of God protect you!

Something in the Atmosphere

I pray that each and every one of you had something awesome happen to you over the weekend! As I sit here at the computer, there are so many thoughts going through my mind. I sense that there is a shifting about to take place in the atmosphere for some reason. Does anyone else feel the same?

It seems as though there is something great on the horizon, if we can just hold on a little while longer. It’s time for us to start doing things on a level that we haven’t before. Let’s elevate our minds, our spirits, our bodies, and our hearts. My pastor has been speaking on the following phrase for a few weeks now… “When is the last time you did something for the first time?” You see, the magnitude of this question didn’t hit me until about 30 seconds ago. So, I am seriously asking myself, “Shonte’, when is the last time you did something for the first time?” Now, I don’t mean something simple, like preparing a meal that you never cooked before, but something that can really make a difference in your life or in the lives of those around you.

Life is too short for us to just sit back and let life happen to us, how about we happen to the lives around us? God has planted something special on the inside of each and every one of us. We all have something great to offer. That special gift or talent that you have is there to bring glory to God and His Kingdom. How are you using your gifts and talents? Although, our gifts are different, they are all from the same spirit. For the word explains, “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men.” (1 Corinthians 12:4-6).

I am making a decision to start off everyday asking myself, “Self, what can I do for the first time today?” In other words, I want to think of new ways to please God and be a blessing to those around me. It’s time to elevate ourselves like never before. It’s time to reach higher, think better and make a mark that can’t be erased!

If you are not able to physically make it to the prayer meeting location you can join us in spirit. We have received a few prayer requests for this week. We are continuing to pray for Cheree whom has been diagnosed with advanced stages of breast cancer, we will pray for her healing, faith and strength. We are praying for Elise and the prayer requests that she submitted on this morning. We are praying for Tiffany and the prayer requests that she submitted this afternoon. In addition, I am praying that millions of mothers will be touched by this ministry and great works will be done through this ministry.

Word Wednesday

Today is officially “Word Wednesday” otherwise known as “Hump Day.” We’ve made it half way through yet another week on the wonderful, exciting and bumpy road of motherhood. Therefore, some of us are looking for some encouraging words to make it through the rest of the week with Joy and Peace. At night before my son goes to bed, in addition to reading bible stories, I read him a passage out of Prayers That Avail Much, First Blessings for Your Child by Germaine Copeland. Mommies we have to keep our children prayed up and constantly put Gods Word in their hearts.

Monday’s passage read, “Precious one, you are most blessed. Wherever you walk, God’s Word will guide you; whenever you rest, it will guard you.” As children of The Most High God, we are so blessed to have His Word to lead and guide us. Whenever we feel lost or confused we can always find comfort in knowing that the Holy Bible has all of the answers.

It’s amazing that most of us find time for EVERYTHING else except for time to spend in His Word. When I say time, I am not talking about 5 or 10 minutes, I mean really spending time reading, studying and meditating on His Word until it becomes apart of us. I am certainly guilty of not always putting in the Word time that I should. I can definitely tell when I haven’t been in my Word the way that I should by how I feel. When things start to go a little haywire in my life I know that it’s time to get back on track with my Word life. For we find completeness in God’s Word, “But if anyone obeys His Word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him:” (1 John 2:5).

It’s time to take our Word life to another level if we truly want to grow as Christian’s and walk in a higher level of anointing and power. Maybe that means less time in front of the television, less time on the phone, less time going out and/or less time on Facebook. Let’s be true examples of what God has appointed us to be. Let’s guide our children by reading, studying and meditating on God’s Word with them. Let’s make a better effort today to take our lives to the next level in every way possible!

Birthday Blessings

Here we are again blessed with another Monday that’s sure to be filled with love, happiness and awesomeness!!! I had such a wonderful weekend celebrating my sons’ birthday. I missed you all on Thursday and Friday, but we all know how hectic it can be planning an event in addition to all of our other duties and obligations.

Last week I sat back and wondered how in the world the party grew to 50 people so quickly. I started to spaz out for a few moments, then I pulled myself up by the bootstraps, rolled my sleeves up and went to work. The party was amazing and it seems as though everyone enjoyed the fellowship, fun and food. I know I surely did! This morning I am reflecting on how much of a blessing it is to have so many wonderful people surrounding and supporting us. I don’t know that I could have pulled it off without the help of my amazing friends and family.

I must take a few moments in this post to give special thanks to my hubby, my mother, my father, my dad, my mother-in-law, my grandmother, my sister and her best friend, my best friends Rasheedah and Christina, Simone, Hilary, cousin Brandon and all others that contributed in any way! Thanks guys for making this one of the best birthday parties ever! I thank God for the favor and blessings that I receive on a daily basis. I am a firm believer that we should always be willing to help our fellow man and do good unto all. For the word tells us, “Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.” (Galatians 6:10).

I am not taking the blessings of the support and love of my family and friends for granted. Instead I am going to take the acts of selflessness and kindness that they displayed over the weekend and pay it forward. Please join me in paying forward all the wonderful things that come your way and watch your life be blessed in a special way!

Word Wednesday

Today is officially “Word Wednesday” otherwise known as “Hump Day.” We’ve made it half way through yet another week on the wonderful, exciting and bumpy road of motherhood. Therefore, some of us are looking for some encouraging words to make it through the rest of the week with Joy and Peace. At night before my son goes to bed, in addition to reading bible stories, I read him a passage out of Prayers That Avail Much, First Blessings for Your Child by Germaine Copeland. Mommies we have to keep our children prayed up and constantly put Gods word in their hearts.

Monday’s passage read, “I ask our holy Father to guard you as you pursue His life that He conferred as a gift through Jesus. I thank Him for posting a night watch about you this evening.” I am so thankful that God sent Jesus so that we may have everlasting and abundant life. I realize that as a Christian mother it is my duty to make sure that my children understand that they were bought at a price. They must understand that we are living temples of the Holy Spirit and we belong to God. For the word tells us, “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price…” (1 Corinthians 6:20). On the day that I gave my life to the Lord I made a choice to live for God and to let His word direct my path. At that moment I made a decision to stop letting my flesh rule me and instead to let the Holy Spirit lead and guide me the rest of the way.

Salvation is truly serious business and it is not to be looked upon lightly. As parents we have to make every effort to teach our children the importance of salvation because there will come a point in time that they must willingly choose salvation for themselves. I wish that I could ask the Lord to give my son salvation for the rest of his life and that be the end of it, but it doesn’t work that way. We are born with free will and salvation is available to all of us, but we must ask for it. God never intended for us to suffer but to have abundant life. “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Thessalonians 5:9). So let's continue to rise above our fleshly ways and desires and let the Holy Spirit within us prevail in all that we do.

Who’s Watching

Good day to all! I am so thankful to see another beautiful day with my health and strength in tact. I am even more thankful to know that the Lord is keeping and covering my family. We have so much to praise Him for! I hope that each of you had a blessed, wonderful and fulfilling weekend.

On yesterday, I went to visit my mother and when I turned onto her street I saw my sister outside talking with some of her friends. They immediately ran to my car and started to compliment me on my outfit and volunteered to come help set up at my sons birthday party next weekend. I didn’t think much of it at the time, but this morning I thought to myself, “Those girls really do look up to me.”

This led me to think about all of the little and not so little eyes that are watching us on a daily basis. Not only are our children looking up to us, but we are role models and examples for so many other people and we don’t even realize it. That’s why it is so important that we “walk right” and live according to God’s plan and purpose everyday of our lives. “In Him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,” (Ephesians 1:11). I will be the first to say that I am not perfect, but I am definitely striving to be more like Jesus everyday. I do fall short at times, but I have to make every effort to be the example that God has called me to be.

Soon after getting married a friend and I were having a debate on the subject of Christians going to the club. I can’t speak for everyone, but I can certainly speak for myself in saying that the club is not a good atmosphere for me. I absolutely LOVE to dance and would love to go to the club with my husband just to dance with him all night, but that wouldn’t be very wise. The club is filled with so many sinful things such as; drugs, lust and alcohol. So how bright can my light really shine if I am in such a dark place? Also, you never know who’s watching you at any given moment. Let’s think about this for a minute… would it be very good witness for Saved M.O.M. to be gyrating in the club, even if it is on my husband? I think not.

No matter where you are or what you are doing, just remember that there are ALWAYS eyes watching you. What kind of example are you setting for those eyes to see? More importantly, God is always watching you, even when no one else is.
