A Respect For YOUR Giftings

I wanted to take out some time to talk about some of the most awesome gift encounters I have had this year! I am always inspired by people who do what God tells them to do, even if it is unfamiliar territory. One of my bestest friends has written an awesome devotional called, Living The Light! Some of you may already know Nurisha Liggins, but I want to encourage you to check out her site, www.nurishaliggins.com. Most everyone is looking for a fresh new start for the new year and I have found that no matter WHEN you decide that you are ready to take a dive into your own heart, Living The Light will help to guide you thru and awesome journey to self-discovery of who God is in your life. Strap on your seatbelt for the ride because Nurisha tells it like it IS! Never fear....God is in there! (smile)

One day I was on the Internet and I discovered this AMAZING website that had some of the most stylish accessories EVER!!!! As I browsed through the site, I noticed that the products I was most attracted to, are designed by my friend Vanita Weithers. Check out her page at www.facebook.com/neemadesigns. Her deigns are original, affordable and down right couture! After looking at her work, I was inspired to support small businesses and independent artists. I'm delighted to know that God has already given us everything we need and is also very generous with what we desire as well!

I am so proud of one of my brothers, who in spite of all he has encountered this year with the passing of his wife and transitioning into being a single dad, has completed his first novel called At A Mirror's Glance. I must tell you....I could NOT put this book down, it was so good! Check out, www.atamirrorsglance.com. Savaslas is an amazing writer and he says that this novel is fictitious but somehow I keep thinking that the novel is about someone I know...it is just SO REAL! I dare you to get the book!

Who comes up with the idea to make running errands for people a BUSINESS??? Keokuk did! Check out www.giftederrand.com. I know one of the biggest things for people, especially during the holiday season is...running errands, getting all of the right gifts, setting up and coordinating events and just doing stuff that can seem time consuming. Keokuk's company has mastered the art of saving time and keeping you from the headache of running errands.

One of the highlights of my year is some of my FAVORITE voices in music has released a NEW single, SWV. Check out my girls on iTunes SWV Co-Sign and follow them on Twitter at www.twitter.com/THEREALSWV. All of the real fans...STAND UP!

Well, I hope you have enjoyed my journey this year with the things that have inspired me the most. I am so thankful that God uses you to share His love with me with your gifts. Don't stop believing in yourself, because God believes in YOU!

Spiritually Dehydrated? Passion Un-plugged?

When the music stops....the curtains drop....and the light switch flips to "off", guess who is left? Me! Lately I have found myself being very frustrated with facing the music. How many people actually take out the time to get to know who we really are? The truth is, most of us if we would be honest with ourselves, are only being who people want us to be, and what situations require us to be for a specific time. After so many years of being who "others" require or request you to be, you will find yourself in the same place I have been....FRUSTRATED!!! What are you passionate about? What has God called you to do? Who has God called you to be? What things do you need to remove from your life in order to put God first and keep him there?
