THANKFUL!

HI BEAUTIFUL LADIES!


I JUST WANTED TO REMIND YOU OF HOW THANKFUL WE OUGHT TO BE CONSIDERING GOD IS NOT LIKE MAN THAT HE WILL NOT TELL A LIE.


HE HAS BEEN HONEST BEFORE WE KNEW WHO HE WAS....
HE IS TRUTH....
HE IS SO TRUE THAT HE NEVER HAS TO REPENT..........


NEVER NEGLECT THE TRUTHFULNESS (LOL) THAT COMES WITH HAVING GOD THE FATHER THROUGH JESUS CHRIST IN YOUR LIFE.  TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE RELATIONSHIP.  EVEN MORE SO, BE GRATEFUL AND EVER SO THANKFUL FOR IT!


NOT EVERYONE CAN TESTIFY TO HAVING A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ONE TRUE LIVING GOD, BUT ALSO A GOD THAT IS TRUE!


TOO MANY ARE SETTLING FOR RELATIONSHIPS THAT ARE BASED OFF OF LIES.  THIS IS TRULY A RELATIONSHIP FOUNDED NOT ONLY ON THE BASIS OF LOVE BUT TRUTH....THANK YOU JESUS CHRIST FOR BEING THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE!


SO NOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN REMINDED, SHARE IT WITH SOMEONE THAT WOULD BE BLESSED BY HAVING KNOWN HIM FOR THEMSELVES!


WALK WORTHY DIVAS AND WALK IN THE TRUTH WHILE BEING THANKFUL FOR IT!  

Word for the Day

DIVAS,

If you find yourself trying to find fault with someone else, perhaps there is sin knocking at your door. 

Could it be jealousy, could it be envy? 

Make sure you take spiritual inventory because if not careful, you might find yourself as the Judas being handed the bread dipped in the wine who then betrayed Jesus the Christ. Confess your sins and God said he is faithful and just to forgive us...

With that said, have a blessed day and remember, 

Walk Worthy Ladies!

"A Sight for Sore Eyes"

DIVAS,
Are you in tune with whats going on in the world around you?  How is your reception when it comes to caring to see them that are hurting around you?  For instance, do you pay attention to some of the posts that friends on your list post?  When it seems they are dealing with an issue of life, do you drive on by or do you care enough to send them a message to show you care?


There are those that God place in our path with the expectation that you will see but are your eyes opened?  WAKE UP DAUGHTERS, WAKE UP SONS!


We pray that we have eyes to see as Jesus or like Jesus but with those eyes, what do you think Jesus was using his eyes to see?  Someone could say he had sore eyes from all the pain he saw BUT He not only saw to save them from their sin, and their hurt that they not only suffer from but found difficulty to articulate.  I am grateful God had sore eyes for me and he is teaching me to have sore eyes for them that society refuses to see. 


Why?  Is it because the sight is too sore on the eyes?  Shouldn't we who have been redeemed see them that are without hope found in the blessed gospel of Christ Jesus?


I believe there are some God intends for us to see.  They are meant for us to see because there are some sores that you see and can identify in the other.  You can identify the sore dead on because you recognize a similar sore within yourself.  Gratefully, God means for you to see the sore and even if you wanted to, you couldn't close your eyes because the pain in therm is so familiar.  Truth of the matter, helping them, helps you too!


Thank God for sore eyes--I pray that God in that moment when he allows you to see that you won't close your eyes but open them wide in order to see and then meet the need!


In Jesus' name, 
Amen!      

Inspired by Ephesians 5:1-14

Lips are luscious but are not meant to be kissed by everyone! You wouldn't share your gum with everyone after you have chewed it now would you?

Same rule applies here!

Much like body parts maybe attractive but not meant to be seen and touched by everybody.  

DIVAS, don't be fooled by those that try to excuse these types of sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him.  For you who were in darkness, remember you now have light from the LORD.  

So live, live as people of light by following the example of Christ!

Congrats Tamarra & Monte'

Good morning DIVAS Walking Worthy!

I had the privilege to be present to attend my baby sister's wedding.  It was a celebration and everything was done not only in decency and in order but in love.  If our mother was present, she would have beamed with light so bright and it would have overflowed out into the crowd of witnesses.

Instead of her being there, God's presence was there and he truly smiled on both my sister and her now hubby.  You were unable to have the privilege of attending but here is a poem I was asked to write as well as read while the lovely wedded couple to be lit the remembrance candle for our mother that was called from this life to glory Oct 2002.

A MOTHER’S LOVE

BY Dana L Christmas-McCain

My Daughter,

As you light this candle in remembrance of me

Baby girl, don’t cry for me

I’m in heaven delightfully kneeling at my Lord and Savior’s feet

LEAH,

As you light this candle today

Yes you were my youngest child

May the light be reminiscent of the light of God’s Word as He leads you and guides you all the way

TT-LEAH,

May the love I exposed you to be a glimpse of the greatest Source imaginable

The same love that motivated Christ to the Cross and offers salvation to the lost

Lil Mama,

Know that God is pleased with your decision

Much like Christ is your foundation in faith, may your marriage be built on nothing less than Jesus Christ and his righteousness

Montrelle,

He who finds a wife, finds a good thing

God finds favor with you my son

Be good to my daughter, she may be your wife but remember she first belongs to the Lord

Be careful how you treat her

Love my daughter as Christ loves the church

Tamarra,

The young woman and now a beautiful bride to be

Standing before a crowd of witnesses

Most importantly before the Lord’s precious eyes to see

Light this candle in jubilation

It truly is a celebration

Don’t just smile but may the joy from your heart beam and shout out, “My oh my, What a joyous occasion!”

Tamarra,

Remember, this is no time to cry for me

I love you my daughter

I love you my child

Leah, my baby, TT

Now a beautiful bride to be!

To God be the Glory!

Amen

Hello there my DIVAS Walking Worthy!

I just saw a video and something disturbed me......

A man's idea of gifting you with a key to his apartment is not romantic and neither is it an opportunity for you and him to take it to the next level or the next step in your relationship.

Your next step in a relationship should involve him asking you to be his wife if the Lord deems pleasing in His eyesight.

Ladies, don't compromise your values or your witness walking worthy because you think he's going to break up with you.  In fact, your walk should speak so that he would come correct by not insulting you by suggesting that you would accept such an offer.

You know your worth! You desire to do all that is pleasing to the Lord not the world and its views on shacking up!  A union that is blessed is one between a man and his wife.

Prayerfully, if you are dating he is a disciple of Christ and you wouldn't have to expect that of him.  If you are involved with someone that is not remember you can't change anyone and its definitely not your job to convert anyone. Be not unequally yoked with an unbeliever ladies.

Set the bar high because God most certainly has for you!  You are worth more than an invitation to be someone else's bed buddy, roommate, etc.

If he loves God with all his heart, he already knows that "the man who finds a wife finds a treasure, and he receives favor from the LORD," Proverbs 18:22.

If he wants what is best for you, then may he give you his best because your heavenly Father most certainly intends that for his daughters.  Look up to Him that will keep you from falling and walking astray.  Walk worthy and walk in your Father's love because He wants what is best for you and his best is ALWAYS good enough, more than enough!

Remember Divas to Always Walk Worthy!

Who you calling a B****?


This morning my husband informed me while he read comments from the subscribers on black planet regarding Jay-z's and Kanye West's new album.  Apparently, in one of the songs, Jay-Z begins in the opening verses by speaking very highly of his wife Beyonce'.  Towards the end however he refers to her as "a dog" and suggests to someone who is looking to hard at her breasts to go out and get their own "b****."  


Poor choice of words, poor use of judgment, a lack of respect and if ever a man feels he is so comfortable to the point where he can refer to you as a "female dog," then he needs a refreshers course on how to speak and treat a lady (if in fact he has been given a course that instructs him that that language is unacceptable).


B**** is not a term of endearment.  It is no different than a man being referred to as a n**** in my opinion.  Not to mention females referring to one another as a way to "show each other love."


This language is abusive and it is destructive.  It is deplorable and childish.  We truly have to put away childish things.  The Bible reads, "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child."  Paul then continues on to say, "When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me," 1 Corinthians 13:11.


It's time that our young women "come out from among them".  Bitch is designated for anyone that is deemed disregarded and disqualified.  It is used towards those that the one who is handling the word to make the other feel beneath them, worthless, or deserving less than.  Well who made anyone a judge over you other than the heavenly Father?  Never allow anyone to call you anything outside your name especially when your heavenly Father does not address you as such.


You are loved, you are never rejected, you are accepted in the beloved; therefore, walk worthy because God has deemed you to be so!  You are not what the "world" says you are.  Never lose sight of who you are in Christ because he never loses sight of you!


Walk Worthy Ladies because you are worth something to God!
