I say that because, it took me a long time to sit my butt down at the computer. Honestly, it was just a lazy weekend. I did have to play my daughters boyfriend one on one in basketball. HA! He was telling Az he couId beat me. I was like WHAT?!?!? Kid, I do this for real. LOL
He was talking just as much stuff to me as I was to him. Azia told me do not let him beat me. LOL So you know it was on!
I went to pick them up from her moms house. When they got to the car, he opened the back door and she opened the front door. I told him to close his door. Then told her to close her door. Then I explained to him that he is going to be a gentlemen with my daughter and treat her like a lady. I made him open her door first, make sure she gets in, then close the door after her. Then he got in. I also told him, besides playing basketball, he is going to learn alot today!
We went to my aunts house, and started playing a warm up game. He didn't know it then, but while we were playing, I was peeping out his game. Looking at what he does well and stuff. Once I got his game down, we played. I told him before the game started that I was not going to let him win, and I was not going to take it easy on him. I said I may have the size, but you are 20 years younger than me! So, we played, and I beat him 15-9. The only reason it was that close was because I let him shoot from the foul line without playing any defense. I had him 10-2. I told him, once he misses, game was over, because I wasn't going to miss any more. LOL.
Besides that, I didn't do much. I did miss an important going away party for a gooood friend of mine, LEA. I thought the party was in the evening, and it started in the afternoon, so Lea, I gotta make it up to you. I APOLOGIZE....and I apologize to you guys too, for not posting sooner.
TODAY'S MEDITATION
I have been meditating on making small changes in my walk. I noticed that I wasn't 100 percent on point with my goals last month, and that was because I didn't do everything that I set out to do. I need to make some minor adjustments to get this thing right. I remember getting a list of 10 things Christians must do to be successful a couple of years back. I am looking for it to share with you guys. I think, if I stick to that list, plus add what we've already started here, I'll be good....we'll be good.
I am currently in the hospital with Az getting a transfusion, so I won't be adding any music right now.
TO BE CONTINUED

I will pray for Azia right now. Tell her she is in my thoughts and prayers. Just think once our New President signs this bill for the stem research we will have a better change of finding a cure for all these Elments. Tell her to hang in there that her Blog family is praying for her and that we love her too.
ReplyDeleteYou hang in there too. Remember is not about you or me it's about the ones we love and care about.
Love you guys

Subject: Daily Affirmation for March 9, 2009
When was the last time you contacted an elderly loved one, volunteered to feed the needy, or donated to a nonprofit organization? It is so easy to get caught up in your daily life that you forget about others. However, it is God’s desire for you to love one another. So, when you walk in love, you will do things for others cheerfully and willingly. “Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another”. It doesn’t get any plainer than that! Be Blessed!!!
Romans 12:9-16
Look Corey Romans 12, God is putting it together for us.
Corey, I join Thalia in praying for you and Azia.
ReplyDeleteThalia, I continue to keep you in my prayers.
Things are well with me. Praying through the difficulties and back-slidden FOOD moments :-)
Corey B - We are praying for your daughter. God has her in the palm of His hand....need I say more?

Well, that dreaded time has come - as I've been warned – during my most trying times "friends" will drop out for real....
ReplyDeleteAfter explaining what I've been going through with my Daddy and the results thereof (eating, sleeping, etc) - as the blog family knows - friends have replied with emails such as....
"That's fine Keaver ... whatever. I was concerned about your welfare. And now that I see you are ok - all is well. Be blessed."
That word “whatever” is really a thorn in my side or is that a nail in my hand???
My response has been, “Hey - don't stop praying - 'cause I'm not ok. My welfare is still at stake! It's difficult to explain to one who has both parents. So I hope you can just intercede without really understanding.”
Sometimes I get no reply.
My heart is troubled – but maybe I just need to let go of these “friends”
Seeking my blog family for answers if you’ve been through this or know someone who has!
Kbrenai, I know your heart is troubled, keep praying my sister and I will keep praying for you. No I have not experience the lost of my parents and I don't know what I am about to tell you will help, but a year ago today my mother was fighting for her life and the Dr. told us there was nothing else they can do for her so that day I felt pain, and anger like no one else had ever experience. God said her life was not done and she is still with me now but the pain I felt those days not knowing what if... was horrible and no one understood, no one.
ReplyDeleteAs for your "Friends" , they just need prayer themselves. You need to pray for them. Sometimes people don't think about what comes out of their month before they speak. I truly think they know you are still healing and care about you but they don't know what to say. I went though a depression some years ago and my "friends" didn't know what to say. My marriage was over. They didn't know what to say because it boiled down to the fact they didn't understand what I was going through and that is the same with your friends. They don't understand. Just pray for them.
We will get you through this girl. God is not done with you yet. You have too many gifts and talents that God has given you to use and your job is not done yet!
Love ya!
Thalia
Keeping Azia in my prayers.....
ReplyDeleteKbrenai, I also agree with what Thalia said. Sometimes people say things and don't take into account of the other person feelings. People tend to become selfish sometimes and only think of thier own personal issues of hurt pain and problems as something important.....Yes people have thier own problems....but sometimes they forget how much they needed a listening ear no matter how many times they wanted to talk about it. The important thing for you to do is not to become offended because feelings of offense could bring forth sin in your life towards this person...What I suggest you do is take that whatever and pray for that whatever bless that whatever in your prayers...pray that this person never has to exprience what you have and that they develope a close relationship with God ...you will come out at peace declare it ...bless them and let God do the rest..I just finish reading a book that I think might help you called The Bait of Saten by John Bevere. Lots of hugs to you Kbrenai you are not alone and i need you to survive :)
Lots of hugs to you Thalia I need you to survive keep me in your prayers...
Lots of hugs to you Corey (I APOLOGIZE ...IAM SORRY )I need you to survive
God bless everyone that is apart this blog family
