Survey Says???

The past week to ten days have been incredibly challenging yet even more rewarding!!! Truthfully I prayed 'Lord reveal your will in this situation. Let it be quick. Not what Shavra wants Lord but what is pleasing in your sight. You know what's best for me and I trust your sovereignty over my fickle emotions. Amen'. And #BAM #PA-KOW #WHOOSH #BOOM did He answer! lol and answered quickly! Anddddd boy did I cry! Not because I didn't trust Him or was I wavering with what He revealed but that I actually gave a godly effort. Oh and I'm way sensitive anyway so tears falls effortlessly at times!
I'm okay with the tears, the answer, what was revealed, but it still kinda suxxs! lol. Can I be honest?! :) Even still my response is to believe the report of the Lord. I believe His plans are for me to prosper. Survey says...I WiN and I am triumphant! This has been rewarding because it has shown me 'me' and what I need to work on. {Sidebar: Maybe I'll write 'for real for real' about this 'topic' in my book. Give all the inside details lol}. Oh and my friends, those who know what's going on specifically or not, have been awesome. I had to minister twice this weekend and it's not like I was all depressed stuff but I had to step my worship up. The songs I ministered were for me. The words came from my heart. So....just trust God ya know. His thoughts are not like my thoughts and I'm glad!
Until we 'blog' again!

KINGDOM MUSIC FESTIVAL '11

!!!KINGDOM MUSIC!!! RAPPERS! SINGERS! DANCERS! POETS! MINSTRELS! WORSHIP LEADERS! RADIO HOSTS!   Kingdom Music Festival 2011:  Territorial Reign With great expectation we are anticipating our 6th Annual Kingdom Music Festival in June 2011. Our objective is to be interactive with each other and with Yahweh in such a manner that leaves us forever marked and changed by this called gathering. We believe God for prophecies, words of knowledge, words of wisdom, and revelation to manifest in our corporate environment. Artists will be transformed into kingdom priests. Entertainers will recognize their unique service ministries and they will be launched into God’s divine purpose for their lives. Mental delusions and bondages will be broken off as men and women of God pull away to prioritize His will above their own. As we approach our time together I would like to take this time to go over some of the KMF Frequently asked questions for 2011. The Kingdom Music Festival is open to the public and free. At this event, doors will be open to many partnerships and ministry opportunities for those looking to network and grow in the body of Christ. What is KMF? The Kingdom Music Festival is a gathering of prophetic and evangelistic minstrels and poets for the purpose of glorifying God in the name of His son, Jesus Christ, who is lord of our dance and our song. We are gathering to network, learn, and minister with each other and to seek and save the lost. Our desire is to meet and connect with others in the body of Christ for the purpose of edification and equipping for the greater works of ministry.  I'm a artist who wants to participate through song, poetry, rap, dance, spoken word, art work, etc. at KMF how do I sign up?

Sweatpants and a T-Shirt!

So it's a trip that I feel like sweatpants and a t-shirt but I have mega work to do. It's probably because I've been working on 4 hrs of sleep each night and pushing through the rest of the day. Or perhaps its because my eating habits have not really been a habit lately more like random appearances. It could be that I haven't worked out in 2 weeks and haven't been horseback riding in 6 months....Why is that the case??? Beats me...lol. For real though I have to grind in this season. Time for things to happen. Yet in the middle of working hard I feel like hardly working. Can it just be a t-shirt, movies, and pizza day for like 5 days??? Can I hope? Can I dream? ahhh i'd probably be bored silly!!!

#thatisall cuz not to much gets done in sweatpants and a t-shirt! :-)

....WHILE GOD IS STILL WORKING..I still must worship...

I just wanted to share a few songs that minister to me at different times in the last few months:

This song is called 'Away' by Kim 'Kiwi' Pratt. Often times for me I'm my worst enemy and my past seems like my present on some days. For like 2 weeks I just put it on repeat until the words saturated my heart and mind. {i thought for sure a sister was a goner, intercessors help to rebuild my armor, new dawn new day, now a lil stronger.....} Visit her website and store here: www.kiwionline.net or her fb page: http://www.facebook.com/kiwionline

This next song is called 'Give Me Faith' by Elevation Worship. It's difficult to explain how dopetastic this song is to me. It speaks to my situation yet exalts Christ over my flesh. Lately I've been determined to give God more and fulfill my purpose on the Earth. The opposition was strong and I found this song to be a light. While God is still working in me I must worship. I must! This song goes IN every time! 

Finally, the last song is called 'The Anthem' by Planetshakers. This song is just awesome. It straight from the throne! It takes my eyes off of my problems and focuses on the fact that I AM THAT I AM is with me. Christ, I Am, defeated the grave for me and there is nothing that can stop the move of God in my life. Enjoy!!! 

Let's worship!

Me vs Pretty Girls: The Event

I remember I was about 9 or 10 years old and a family member stood me next to another female family member who was a few years older than me. We stood back-to-back and then faced forward. This person compared looks, facial structure, the shape of our bodies, hair...etc. I remember that person pointing out the fact that my breast and butt was non-existent. AGAIN I WAS LIKE 9 YEARS OLD...! O_o The other girl was about 12 or 13 and I'm sure she ate the chicken that was on steroids!!!!!! Yeah I'm sure!

But anyway I hated every minute of it. I was confused. I was hurt. I didn't know what the whole purpose of this 'demonstration' was. I was showed 'the' standard of a female body and I was critiqued on how bad I failed that standard. I was turned against the Pretty Girl and she didn't even know it. I was the looser. I was already kind of tom-boyish but I always wanted to be pretty but I didn't think that was possible. Really, I didn't...I didn't like naturally pretty girls...they had effortless beauty and that's something I would never have. Its hard to explain how that 'event' made me feel but I'm sure some of you can imagine how i felt. Can you imagine the impression it left on my heart??? A child's heart???

So what's the point in writing this? To show my dislike for pretty girls? lol...no that's not it! To put my family on front street? Nope that's not it either! Mainly for those who think that 5 minutes of fun won't effect a person. Cuz its been over 17 years and I still remember that moment. When I think of how powerful that moment could have been I just shake my head. That was the perfect opportunity to fill me with so much confidence! For 15 years the pretty girls was my enemy. The pretty girl was the reminder of how much I failed. The pretty girl was where I never would be. DO YOU STILL THINK IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU SAY?? That sticks and stones jingle is a lie...Your words are powerful and impactful! Please use them wisely....

Shalom!
