7.13.10 - GOING PLACES I HAVEN'T BEEN (Apache Cafe)

Last night I actually went to a HIP HOP JAM SESSION @ the APACHE Cafe! I had a good time. To see such a display of talent was amazing. Even in the midst, God speaks. I just chuckled. This group The 5ive did a sampling to get people to come out next weekend. The last song was "POSSIBILITIES"! LOL! Even typing it I feel tickled. It speaks of though he's gone through so much how God is making things better! (God you are awesome.) For real, that was the sign off for the night.

Ate something I had never eaten: Curry Tilapia in a mango curry sauce; caramelized plantains with vanilla ice cream sprinkled with cinnamon.

Went to bed at 3AM! The time was well spent. Change starts with being open to doing and seeing things that you have never experienced before.

7.13.10 - Blog

Now, I know God has jokes, but today was very interestingly charming. After attending a class (real estate related), I went to Chipotle for vegetarian burrito & McDonald's for fries & a tea. I decided to sit in McDonald's to eat my food & read my book. As I read and ate, I kept noticing a flatscreen TV as u come through the door that had the 700 Club on it for customers to view. Still not paying much attention & only looking sporatically, I noticed 3 other christian preachers. I can't help but wonder what the mission statement of this McDonald's is. There 1st presentation is the gospel at one of the busiest McDonald's in ATL Metro Area. There is a profound calm, peacefulness here. If they aren't believers, I would be totally amazed. Somebody is a praying person in here and I know it. God has a way of letting me know He is near and I just love when I slow down long enough to notice. Moreover, to realize that He wants me to petition Him about everything in & about my
life.

New Reality

It occurred to me a couple days ago my declaration I made last September. I am so glad to realize that God's hand has been in the midst of my change. Today, I rejoice because I already know that my life is far different today than it was last September so my expectation for greater is fueled by this realization.

I have taken responsibility for my growth as I feel guided to read. I am a college student, a business woman, a wife, a mother, a friend, a woman after God's heart, a visionary, a mentor and just me. I encourage you to take a look at yourself and make some decisions and declarations too.
