Greetings,
This year has just begun, and yet I am reaping my rewards.
God has been so good to me, and I am so grateful for all the great blessings that I have received in 2008.
My first book, " Chronicles Of A Mended Heart", was just the tip of the ice berg. Self exploration, gratitude, a testimony, and in a nut shell, Shametra really realizing how blessed she is. I have overcome so many speed bumps, yet when I reflect on 2008. I have accomplished just as much.
I am learning the true value of friendship, and boundaries. It's really ok. To have your quiet moments. It allows you time, to project and really reflect.
To allow the Lord time to speak to your heart. So that you know when to make the next move, proceed to the next level.
What I have realized is, without God in my life, I would have not accomplished as much as I did.
I think my knees are a bit dusty ya'll
Dusty, from all the praying that I did, to draw closer to my savior, dusty to plead to God that I need his love, and I can't live without him, and dusty because, I had to pray for change.
Change does not have to be negative, it can be considered, something that represents, newness. A change for the better.
And Change is always good.
This year I will not set a resolution. However I will continue on the path that has been set forth before me.
So 2009 will serve as a reminder, of the love that I have, the great friends that are really there, my education, writing my 2nd book and taking the steps to be healthy. Which I have invested alot of my time doing.
So as Micki Howard says, I am love under new management. Do you all remember that song? HA HA
If I could offer a mild story of what I would love for my year to be.
It would be this!
Full Gospel Baptist Fellowship Mass Choir- "Bow Down"
Yolanda Adams- "Never give up"
Jill Scott- "Show me"
Dwele- "Hold on"
Mary J Blige- "Come to me (in peace)"
Yael Naim- "New Soul"
Mos Def- "Umi Says"
Tye Tribett " Victory"
You can go to www.imeem.com, to view any of these song titles and artists.
My suggestion to you would be, first seek the kingdom of God and all his righteous, and all things will be given unto you. Pray, pray, pray. It's amazing that at times we second guess ourselves, and at times don't know the right decisions to make, but when you pray and allow the Lord precedence over your decisions, you can never get a wrong answer. He knows what is best for you. NO ONE can love you like him..
Pray for our new president, pray for your family, your friends, and your enemies. Take time read a book, spend some time with yourself, organize and prioritize your life, goals, etc. One of my personal moments by myself is going to the lake and writing, and watching the sun set. It's amazing.. Just to watch the water, and the environment..
Blessings to you and yours. May this year be filled with blessings, and may you set out to accomplish just as much as you put your mind to do.
Signing off for now, until the next time!
Happy New Year!
