"Feed me until I want no more.... "


After I could not sleep this morning, I decided to phone my mother who left for her 3rd consecutive Cruise trip to the islands. She left Brianna downstairs with Ms. Lillie. I am glad she can get out on her own and go and view the world.
Reminds me of how I view life, guess I get that from her, "smooth sailing". Anyway, I got up and went downstairs to lay with my daughter and I did manage to catch a few minutes of sleep. I got up and watched Bobby Jones, Kim Burrell was on there singing her high praises. (Great vocalist and personality).
I got me and Brianna ready for church, we ate our breakfast and headed out. Church was better than grand today, it was the return of our Pastor and Founder, Dr. Elton T. Byrd.
He came back in rare form. He PREACHED, SANG AND GAVE US ALL SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT- He lectured about being fed and how and why people leave churches today and where the direction of the world is headed based on the immoral decisions certain churches make to fit into society trying to uphold a general basis on only prosperity or contemporary ordinances. I can do nothing but applaud him for his firm beliefs. Gave me enough knowledge to ENDURE, not only in my spiritual life but in all aspects of my life. (God is truly GOOD to ME). Of course, after that I ate and got up to send Brianna off home after I took my usual Sunday nap. I then watched another great episode of Desperate Housewives, off the chain. (Love that show). I ate again after the show and just sat here in awe of the spirit of God, how sweet it comforts the soul and mind. God deserves the praise at all times.
The older I get, the more I realize that, and in spite of my shortcomings, God still blesses and "my cup runneth over".
