Hi Everyone

While in my quiet place the revelation of my purpose continues to unfold to me with much clarity. I have come to a definite decision that giving up is not an option. The word that was placed in my spirit was strive. The basic meaning of this word is...to devote serious effort or energy-endeavor to finish a product. The endeavor I am exerting all my energy and/or effort is my faith. The God-kind of faith is the finished product in which I am striving.

This is not an easy decision to fulfill but very necessary. I really embrace the saying; "to have something you have never had before...you must do something you have never done before". I have never remained, I always gave up or compromised; therefore never receiving the true Promise. I do not wish to continue to live a mediocre life. God promised me an abundant life and I have a right to receive that kind of life. There are certain specifications and criteria that must be met and I am willing to do what is necessary. Therefore; I strive to receive the promised prize.

G.R.A.C.E. is alive and well and she will remain in that state of being because I have chosen to remain. Please, continue stand with us and thank God for the receiving of the 501(c)3 certification letter and our first home. There is a great need for this type of ministry work and as we allow God to continue to transform us His Kingdom...His way of doing things, will manifest right here on earth. Another great saying I embrace is; "only changed people can change people". We the Board Members and affiliates have purposed to be used for such a time as this.

I remain in His Grip!!!

Learnng through the stand

Shalom to those who are reading or following my blog. I truly appreciate your support and interest.

The time waiting for the promised manifestation of G.R.A.C.E. to come into frutition has not been wasted. I always ask Him what is my next step, although He does speak very clear and concise directions, He continues to requires me to remain still before Him. During this quiet time I witness the fall of the degradation happening in the world. Big falls by big people whose foundation was not built on The Rock. Thus fulfilling The Word...the wealth of wicked is laid up for the righteous. But there are stipulations for the righteous and to be fully prepared to receive the bounty we, the righteous, must go and stay before Him for ourselves.

The Ministry continues to wait for the 501(c)3 non-profit certification to be placed in our hands. My last conversation with the IRS representative I was told the agent working on our case is very slow. The usual inpatient anger did not arise but prayer for the representative and the agent came forth. I have learned to pray God's Favor and His Divine Interevention into my life and the things that concern me. G.R.A.C.E. concerns me; therefore I know He is working it out for my good. I'm standing on The Rock.

My daily confessions are taken from a book written by Cindy Trimm. There's a portion I wanted to share with you because I believe His Word..."Wherever I go systems, institutions, cultures, environments, legislation, codes, ordinances,regulations, and policies adjust to accommodate my divine purpose."

The children that will be sent to us need to see The God that is not interrupted by us, the called ones, because we did not spend the required time for ourselves before Him. I'm excited and remain expecting for His Kingdom to come right here on earth.

I remain in His Grip!
