Old Girl Dead, New Girl Reborn.....

"Girl come on. Let's go to the club. Nah girl, not me. It's just not me anymore." "Girl I can't stand my boss, he make me so sick. Girl you need to be grateful for the job that you got. You know God gave it to you. Plus, it could be worse, you could have NO job." "Girl I'm so sick of praying for my friend. She so stuck in herself, she ain't never going to get this thing right. Girl I'm pretty sure someone was saying the same thing about you before you got delivered but they didn't stop praying for you did they?" These things all used to be me. And at some times I forget and they still are. I'm very aware that I am still a work in progress. I won't ever be perfect because there's only one who ever was and ever will be perfect. I just had a friend the other day tell me that she just sat and listened to a lady that was just so negative about things going on. She told me that after "correcting" her 3 times s

So things are going well. You are finally getting into your new routine of giving the Lord a certain part of your day... Strictily. A part of the day where you aren't thinking about the bills, cleaning, work, laundry, the kids, nothing. It's just time for your own personal date with God. That is me! So excited cause I finally am in the routine that I've really driven for. Getting the true relationship that I really want with our Lord. Not because that's what others are doing. Not because others thought that's what I was supposed to do. Not cause that's what I heard was good. But just because He wakes me at that time and I don't feel tired when He does. That's why I know it can be nothing but the Lord's gentle nudge looking for me. In my routine, I wake up at 5:30 am to have personal time with the Lord. I can pray, worship, study, write, whatever I feel God calling me to do. As long as its with Him. It was all going amazing..... Until...... I h

So i got to work on Wednesday on time, as usual, and my friend called me to tell me about a very rough workout with her personal trainer from the day before. It was a workout that became very real, very spiritual. Let me tell you just a little about my friend. She is petite, but strong. Single mom, but not incapable. Loving, but also no one to play with. LOL! So she began her story by telling me about how she had to pull her trainer, who is not a small man in the least, 10 steps. My friend is about 120-130 lbs max. He was sitting on something and she had to pull him. Obviously, it was very difficult. But around step 8/9, he really began to get in her head. You know how trainers talk. Don't Give Up. You're Almost There. But he spoke deep. And since he has known her for many years, it was very personal. He related this pull and that she could not give up to different parts of her life.From her career aspirations. To her challenges being a single mom. To her frustrations dealing w

Hi everyone, You can call me CG for Christian Girl. I am in my late 30's. I am a working wife and mom to 5. I have been baptized when i was a baby having grown up in Catholic faith. But since going to a non-denominational bible church I have been able to truly learn more about Jesus and what it means to be "A Christian".  Lately, I have been feeling like i need to share some of my life experiences/testimonies with the world. I am not a pastor or minister or evangelist or anything else. I'm just another person that has run into Jesus while going through a hard time of my life. And slowly started to see how He had been in my life for so long. And I was too ignorant, or to stuck in my "I Got This" ways to see Him. Or maybe i just didn't want to believe that someone other than "good ol capable ME" had control of my life.  So you will see the entries that I post will usually come from nuggets of insight that God has given me while i'm in my
