Second, so a group of us, my fam, my pastor and his LOVELY wife ;), Sam and Janelle, Jimmy, JW, are all at The triple P (Peter Piper Pizza) and we're jokin about like starting like our own Weight Watcher's group at LPC...cause I mean like ALOT of people from our church could join and we could just have like these AWESOMELY ANOINTED meetings! So I'm like yeah THEN we could like have like an Apostolic gym that we could all go work out at...and my brother John is like yeah AND instead of naming it Curves, we'll name it Rolls....BAHAHAHA!!! I seriousley think that would be the AWESOMEST gym name EVER!!! (My brother is sooo FUNNY!)

So then we're all leavin sayin goodbye and I'm like DUDE Jimmy, I like totally gotta tell you about this like totally AWESOME diet moment I had today, cause I just KNEW he would understand this with me!!! So i'm like okaaaaaaay so today after lunch I told the girls(I was watching two foster girls this past weekend) That I would get the Oreos for a treat. Of course it was GONNA be double stuff oreos, ya know! So we stop at the store to get them and as I'm walking down the cookie aisle at Albertson's, I'm see the Chips Ahoy cookies and I'm like OMW I forgot how GOOD Chips Ahoy are AND they are on sale too so i'm like OOOOOH I gotta get those too! So I carry my two items to the front and wait on line and as I am standin there I see all these magazines with health tips, and then I see my Chips Ahoy and my double stuff oreos and I was like YOU KNOW WHAT I;m gonna make a GOOD decision...and YOU KNOW WHAT i DID?!?!

Thats right ya all...I PUT DOWN THE CHIPS AHOY PACKAGE OF COOKIES AND...

Jimmy's like, thats AWESOME Mary! So we fist bump and he tells me his special diet moment today...

He says that he was GONNA go to Cracker Barrel today for lunch and get some fried chicken...BUT instead he JUST went to Quiznos and got a sandwhich...and a soda...and a cookie...the sandwich was a foot long and it did have chipolte mayo on BUT ...

AT LEAST HE DIDN'T have THE FRIED CHICKEN!!!

I'm like Jimmy, THATS AWESOME, I'M SOOOOOO PROUD OF YOU!!!

(Only a fellow fluffy person could truley understand the depth of these kind of diet moments)

If you have a special diet moment... please feel free to share!!!

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
