To all my friends and family
Do me a favor and stop pushing people away. Just b/c they are different or don't have money or nice things, it doesn't make them a bad person. We need to Love one another and show others that we care and we need to lead by example. I have seen christian being bashed on their beliefs and around the world people are being killed b/c they believe in Christ and the gospel. Yet here in America we tend to 4get to drop everything and follow him. I have seen many turn their backs on others b/c they just didn't understand.
I have seen people judge churches and the members b/c the members didn't follow the examples Jesus has set. The members tended to get a little judgmental and gave up on others b/c it hurt there way of life and interfered w/ there lifestyle. That they did something wrong and the gave up on them. Show me where Jesus did this!!! Being a Christian, being a follower of Christ is not easy.It is the hardest thing in the world to do. Anyone can walk away, anyone can just do what they want. But it takes a real person to love others and help others.
We as Christians, followers of Christ have no right to judge someone else for something they did. Now we can not agree with it and hope God will change their heart. But where does it say that we have the right to tell a person that they will never ..............!!!!!! U fill in the blank b/c there are many words there u can put in.
Acts8:1-4 Talks about how a man named Saul persecuted the church and killed and threw men and women into prisons in count of their faith.
Acts 9:1-31 Saul threats and murders followers of Christ. Until a light from heaven flashed around him and Jesus spoke to him. All who where w/ him heard the voice and seen nothing. Jesus told him what to do, where to go, who to see and he also blinded him until he fulfilled what was need at this point.
Saul listen to Him and got his sight back. Not only did he get his site back he proclaim Jesus is Lord and he became one of the biggest loyal followers of Christ.
- Let me remind u he killed and destroyed many believers b4 and yet Jesus forgave him and used Him to lead others to the Kingdom.
- Saul also know as Paul in the bible.
- Paul is now throughout the New Testament. God used him to lead his children to his kingdom.
- Paul became the author of many of the books of the new testament.
- He was far from perfect yet still was forgiven.
So if Jesus loved him enough to save him, and forgive him why can't He do it for me or for you. What gives u the right, not to do the same for others. We need to start today and lead by example and show unconditional love to one another.

watch what u say and do
It really needs to stop or we are not going to make it. We are forgetting to love one another and not judge each other. We need to come together without bashing and crushing each other. Phil 2:4 states we should care for our neighbor. Don’t put yourself first and what I mean by this is, just because u see it one way doesn’t mean you are right.
We all feel, see, and deal with things differently and we need to understand that. STOP hurting each other. If you have a problem or you disagree go to the person and talk to them with understanding. Ask another person to be with you if need be.
Before u talk to a person pray on it and ask God for wisdom and knowledge. Ask him for guidance on the subject. What might be right for you may not be right for another person.
If we love as Jesus loved then we would be fine.
6 Let no one deceive you with empty arguments, for because of these things God's wrath is coming on the disobedient.
7 Therefore, do not become their partners. 8 For you were once darkness, but now [you are] light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
9 for the fruit of the light [results] in all goodness, righteousness, and truth 10 discerning what is pleasing to the Lord.
11 Don't participate in the fruitless works of darkness, but instead, expose them. 12 For it is shameful even to mention what is done by them in secret. 13 Everything exposed by the light is made clear,
-Ephesians 5:6-13
Everyone should look out not [only] for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. -phil 2:4
with his mouth the ungodly destroys his neighbor,
but through knowledge the rightous are rescued.

2Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, serving as overseers—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not greedy for money, but eager to serve; 3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 4And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.

Question 4 christians
I have a question for all Christians.
How many of u finds that your interest is so much more important than someone’s else?
Why do we tend to run away from helping a friend right next to us?
Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
-phil 2:4
If we are Christians we need to walk like Christ and follow his words. We need to help our friends and neighbors. We need to spread the word and teach others about Him.
Nobodys perfect and there is only on Jesus. But we can at least try to be better followers than we are now.

Are We Leaders
Leadership
How many of us believe we are in a leadership position? Do any of us have kids? that is a leadership position. Do we have friends who come to us in time of need, that is a leadership position.
We need to understand that no matter what we do in life no matter how much we keep to ourselves we are in leadership. We need to except that, and we need to lead people down the right path. We are all called to be leaders in Gods kingdom.
I have a lil girl and a lil boy on the way. I want them to love, to give, to share life love happness etc. I want them to become leaders in and for Gods kingdom. How do I make sure they do this is to show by example. We all make mistakes but I want my children to learn from my mistakes to learn from others mistakes. I want my children to be unstoppable in God’s eyes. I want God to say those are my children and LaToya u did well at raising them, u lead by example. U show love to many people who didn’t understand how to love or be loved.
Some people look at God and say well if u love me Y…..? It’s like the story of the guy lost at sea. God sends in a helicopter and he says No God will save me. God sends a boat he says No God will save me. The man drowns and he ask God why did u not save me. God says I sent u a helicopter and a boat u turn them down.
Now can u look back and see where God has given u a way out and u turn it down. How many times have u waited to get a big result and never got it. How many times have u gotten little results and said aww that’s noting or that’s luck, And never thought twice about it. The littlest things make the biggest impacted on our lives and the results in the end are bigger than we ever imagined.
We need to remember as leaders that we are God’s kingdom and we need to live our lives for him. We will inherit the kingdom one day and we need to bring everyone in on it. We want everyone to share with us the kingdom. We are Gods children and he just want's the best for us

Matthew 12:11,12

Men of great faith and their Visions
Part 2
As i said below David was loved by God very much. But he made horrible mistakes that cost him alot of pain and grief. He lost a baby, and there was war within his household. 1 chronicles 22 is about Solomon and Davids talk b4 Davids death.
David says to Solomon that it was in his heart to build a temple for God. But God told him because all the shed blood he was not to build the temple. Now he started collecting the tools and things need to build, but was not to build the temple. But his son Solomon was appointed by God to build the temple.
David had the vision but never Got to see it through, because of his sins were so great.But because Davids unconditional love for God, David had prayed and repented for his sins. God forgave him but, David still had to live with the consequences of the sin.
Moses was another great man of God and made mistakes. He was told by God to do something a certain way and did it another way and out of anger. So in the end he had to suffer the consquences and never enter into the promised land. Moses could see it in the distance but never got to be a part of the joy and blesssings of the vision God had given him. But he still lead the people in the right direction of the vision God had given. Moses suffered the consequences of his actions in the end just as David and just as all of us will.
Now God forgave both men. Just as he will with us, but we all will have to suffer the consequences of our actions. David and Moses both had visions that they started but never got to carryout. Someone else finished the vision. But they still where forgiven. So If God forgave these men who are we to judge our neighbor and condem them. We should be praying for them.
Remember:1 Corinthians 3:16.
16Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you?
As long as u ask yourself this Question b4 u do anything u will be fine. Also be looking for God's fingerprints in everything you do.

David a man of God
Part 1
David a man of God
David a Godly man, who was far from perfect. He not only sinned he sinned big. But God called him a man after his own heart. 1 sam13:14
David and Bathsheba had an affair while Bathsheba’s husband was away at war. He was a solider of David’s army.
1. Bathsheba became pregnant
a. David tried to cover it up
i. He sent for Uriah while he was in the field to come home. David got him drunk and told him to go b with his wife. Uriah did not he was faithful to the cause and the men he was on the line with. He would not indulge in pleasure until the war was over.
ii. David ha Uriah to be placed in the heat of the battle were he could be killed. And was killed.
The Lord sent Nathan to David to show him his mistakes and wrongs. Without hesitation, David asks for forgiveness and accepts the consequences of his sins.
2samuel13-14 shows the consequences for his actions. But he took what was coming to him without trying to run and hide from his mistakes. Also because he didn’t come to God with his problems at the beginning he suffered harder consequences.
Yet David still one the Lords favor and became the model king for kings to come. Later Jesus became a descendant of David. That’s the line I would be proud to have. David showed his love to God by worship and praise, prayers, and just by acknowledge & proclaiming his love. Psalms is David talks and his relationship with God. Psalms speaks of David’s love & worship for God. He took time to praise and thank God for everything. By David’s faith and words we learn how to become favor of the Lord. If we need help praying or having trouble listen for Gods voice, David’s words can help us.
1 Samuel focus on David’s life b4 he became king
2 Samuel is his rule as king
1 Kings is his death “beginning of kings”
1 Chronicles speaks a little on David
There may b more but this is all I no
VISION
David worshiped the Lord so much he wanted to build a temple to honor him. He had a vision and a heart for God.
More on David’s vision later

Everyone has Faith
How often do we just want to be notice? How often do we just want people to just see something special in us? We all believed in ourselves at some point in our lives. But somewhere down the line we lose faith in ourselves. Why? Because he said, she said. Faith is the hardest thing to have for humans. Why? because we are so easliy infulenced by others. We tend to lose faith because it is to much to handle, or it takes to much work. We even lose faith beacause we had no success with a prior issue. We want things to happen right away, with a huge impact.
Most of us if not all have takin a leap of faith and it has failed. We also have taken a leap that has succeeded. Yet some may keep faith in there life and others give up on faith. The glass is hafe full and the glass is hafe empty. Which one are you?
We all want to have faith and beleive and achieve.
Sometimes we just dont know how?
Sometimes we are afraid?
We all want our lives to be better and we all dream of a better tmw.
We sometimes give up quick and sometimes try to reach it.
When was the last time some has trusted me or believed I could do that?
Why can't I achieve that? I wish that was me.
When was the last time I belived in someone?
When was the last time I help someone else?
but why would I beleive in them they or nobody has ever me.
We must recognize our lives cannot center around ourselves. when we try and fail it makes it even harder for us later.
Hebrews 3:13 13But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness.
Trust me if u feel this way at anypoint or recall these thoughts, or something similiar to them there is no difference in you and the happiest person in the world.
Everyone has faith its just the matter of what and where u put it.
Every religion teaches us something and is a leap of faith. Every belief changes our hearts, minds and souls. Be careful on what u chose in you life because it affects u and everyone around you?
Only one faith can teach us love, faith, respect, forgiveness, hope, and gives us what we need as well as others around us. It teaches us How to servive and shows us unconditional Love. It tells us to bless others and we will be blesssed. It teaches us forgiveness and shows us that we all can do it and we all have someone who believes in us.
Luke 18:27 Jesus replied,"what is impossible with men IS POSSIBLE with God.
so what we believe is never gonna happen will and can through God and faith in Jesus.
Philippians2:3-4 3Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. 4Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
When we fail ourselves it hurts us more then someone else who fail us. When someone else fails us it sometimes hurts and sometimes doesnt. God never fails us and never gives up on us.
Our friends and family may give up on us and leave us. Only one man is said to never give up on us and it is Jesus.
Can u imagin what it is like to have Unconditional Love for someone that u would die for them. How about for people that u never met? We all mess up in our lives and because of that mess up we may not be accepted somewhere or at some point. whouldnt that be great if we would be forgiven and given another chance and to feel special and loved. Only on way of life can do that and its not a religion its a way u live ur life and where u choose to put ur faith. What does jesus teach?
How to forgive and Love others. To beleive in others and show them that through faith in Jesus they can have it all. It all in the matter of how we choose to live our lives. God wants us to take that step forward and that leap of faith and show the world that Love can beat anything and in the end Love will win. We all have free will in the end and we all can do what we want but why not do the one thing in this world that doesnt show hate and greed and doubt. Why not take that leap of faith and trust in Jesus.
Anyhow I can go on 4 ever but i'm pregnant and i need my rest so Good nite!!
