Holy Ghost gift!!!

Soooo I was reading back to an incident from over a year ago, when we had a HUGE Holy Ghost breakthrough with the Sunday school kids. 6 kids in ONE service got the Holy Ghost and others were at the alter just weepin in God's presence!!! It was such an amazin experiance, seein SOOO many kids to pray with and NOT even know who to pray with...BUT...I had TOTALLLLY forgotten about the GIFT someone gave me that night!!!
This part that I read just CRACKED me up all over again!!!
"THEN after it was all over and we're herding the kids to the van, I feel SOMETHING lumpy in my shirt...I am like What in the world?!?! I reach in AND I pull out A DIRTY TISSUE!!! I have NO idea who's it was, BUT in between all the praying, one of the kids stuck their DIRTY TISSUE DOWN my shirt!!! AAAAAHHHHH!!!"
I had TOTALLLLY FORGOTTEN about that!!! ONLY MY KIDS!!! I guess it was THEIR OWN little Holy Ghost gift to me!!!
HAHAHAHA!!!
I sooooo LOVE THEM!!!

Esther UPDATE!!!

I just want say thank to all the people that have told me that they were praying in response to my email on Tuesday...that really, really, really, REALLLLLY means a lot to me and I really appreciate it!!! :) Someone said they wish they lived closer so that they could help me BUT as far as I am concerned, IF YOUR PRAYIN that totally IS HELPIN!!!
Esther DID indeed come on Wednesday!!! So did Martina, another Old timer and her neice and cousin...Amazingly, she ACTUALLY called me ahead of time to let me know that she was ready AND waiting for me like half an hour EARLY!!! Which, if you know the African people, it is a TOTAL miracle in itself!!! So Sam preached a REALLLLY good message about the love of God and I could tell it really was gettin to her ESPECIALLY since she had just read his testimony the night before!!! it was really funny cause I could tell when certain parts of the message were REALLLY gettin to her cause ALL of the sudden she was gettin alls sweet and lovey dovey towards her neice....

My P.B hubby!!!

I came to the conclusion the other day that I want marry PEANUT BUTTER!!! For realz!!! I WANT TO MARRY PEANUT BUTTER!!! Okaaaaaaaaaay let me explain myself!!! :)
I was buying peanut butter the other day and I couldn't help but think of my future husband!!! If your thinkin, OKAAAAAAY weird Mary!!! Don't feel bad, thats EXACTLEY what my sis told me when I told HER while we were shoppin at Frys!!!! LOL!!!
My sis had told me to go get P.B and I was lookin at all of them....they were all the same but then DIFFERENT!!! Sooo many choices over just ONE THING!!! Thats when I saw it...Smooth & Nutty!!!
Aha! I had a moment of enlightment and I told my sis, me and my hubby are gonna be like PEANUT BUTTER!!! (She got that okaaaay you need HELP look on her face at this moment!!!) I'm like, BUT he's gonna be smooth p.b. cuz I'm already like, really nutty. She's just like, Okaaaay I could've lived without knowing this, please just go find the next item!!! (Idk perhaps it was the fact that we were in a very crowded aisle at the moment!;)
Soooo we're different...BUT we're BOTH PEANUT BUTTER!!! Cuz there are some things about us that I want to be the same!!! Like, I really wanna marry someone that like LOVES God soooooooo much... (DUH!!!) like me!!! Someone with really strong convictions and a LOVE for holiness!!! (Hellllllloooo!!!) AND someone that really, really, really, really LOVES people(Where are you Wooten???) and has a burden for the lost!!! Teaching Bible studies together, bringin people to church, teahcin Sunday school...I mean like seriousley, thats how I want to spend my life, reaching souls together...FOR REALZ!!!
But think about it SMOOOOTH and NUTTTTY PEANUT BUTTER!!!! Cuz I wanna marry someone that is PEANUT BUTTER LIKE ME!!! Cause I mean lets face it, whoever ACTUALLLY marrys me is gonna be a NUT to begin with, BUT there is NO WAAAAAAAAAAY they can be as NUTTY as me or else our marriage would just be a DISASTER!!! LOLOLOL!!! Sooooooo he's gotta be SMOOTH!!! ;) HAHAHA!!!
.
Which I always, always, always, ALWAYS thought that I would want to marry someone JUST like me...cuz I mean after all...I LOVE ME!!! Hee, hee!!! I took this personality test once, and it basically said that the BEST person for me is like a TOTAL DUD!!! Okaaaay it didn't quite say DUD!!! But it said someone that is very logical and thinks with their head and NOT their ♥heart♥!!! ( A Rational Mastermind) Should be INTERESTIN!!! HAHAHA!!!


THATS ME!!!
Heeey, heeey, HEEEEEEEEEY NOW!!!
At least i'm claimin to be NUTTY!!!! ;)
This is MY PERSONALITY!!!
Find yours HERE!!!
THIS IS HIM!!!
Awwwwwwww look at him!!! He is soooooooo handsome!!!! Can't you just see the two p.b. jars with a lil tux and veil??? *Sigh!!! Soooooo ROMANTIC!!!

Alter call is over and CLASSIC MARY MOMENTS begin!!! LOL!!!

Ironing Skills!!!

IRONING!!! *Sigh...its the ONE domestic skill have NOT yet conquered!!! See girls don't really have to iron most of their clothes(I don't get these girls that still iron EVERYTHING includin their jean skirts!!! WHY would you iron a jean skirt???) these days but guys are a differnt story!!! (Just ask my former employer when she asked me to iron her husband's shirt for her...HAHAHA!!! I think she really regretted that!!! What happened really wasn't MY FAULT...its a long story, you can ask me about in person if you like! I'm just like okaaaaaaaaay you know what, he's YOUR husband, NOT mine!!!:)
.
I'm hopin to marry that ONE man that brings all his shirts to the dry cleaners!!! But NO, I'm sure I'll end up with one thats all like, "If you LOVED me you would iron my shirt!" LOL And I will, OF COURSE!!! He may regret askin...BUT I will lovingly burn those wrinkles right out!!! ;) HAHA!!! (Then AGAIN, by the time I ACTUALLLLLY get married, they may be makin men's clothes so that they don't really have to be ironed either!!! LOL!)
Here is a picture of my AMAZIN ironin skills at Youth Alive!!! Took my skirt outta the suitcase, flung it over the hotel TV for a day...and VOILA!!! Denae was like MARY, that skirt is sooo beautiful you have gotta iron that...but I SURE DIDn't!!! LOL!
.
I challenge you all do answer this question; Did ANYONE at Youth Alive notice any wrinkles on my skirt??? If you did please allow me to give you a hearty and sincere CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Then please come here sooooo I can...
A. SLAP YOU!!!
B. Tell you to get a life!!!
I mean that in a good, Christian way....OF COUSE!!!

PRAYER REQUEST!!!!

I just wanted to put out to you all a VERY important prayer request to me!!! I'm askin you all to please be prayin for my African people!!! I really feel like God is about to do some GREAT things with them!!! As most of you know, the girl Esther that used to live with me pretty much has not been coming to church the last several years...a little bit every once in a while, and one by one the other teens had dropped out till its been pretty much just this one 7-year-old girl Leina, (leina is the lil girl that was gonna live with me but then its a long story but yeah its just the weekends now!) who lives with me on the weekends and her lil sis and like one other lil boy.
.
 And like its been pretty sad but, I've just ALWAYS known that God called me to these people and i've never given up and me Esther have have always kept up a good relationship NO MATTER WHAT!!! But sometimes you know that you can't keep beggin a person to come to church, all you can really do is step back and pray for them!!!
 .

Why you should ALWAYS do your hair...

Sooooo last week when the electricity line blew up and ALL that jazz happened in our neighborhood...
I gave Kim some incredible, MARY WISEDUMB!!!
So the fire truck pulls down the street and I'm like, Ooooo KIM come on, lets go check out the FIRE MEN!!!!!! LOL Cuz, DUH, we're single and this is like some total EVANGELISM about to take place!!! ;) ;) ;) I'm like we'll just act like we're out walkin for excercise!!! Kim is like, Ooooo yeah, with your COOKIN APRON STILL ON!!! LOL (Oooops!)
So we're walkin down the street and Kim is like, WELLLL look at you, with your hair fixed up ALL PERFECT!!! AND this is when the wise words, from YEARS of Ladies of Legacy classes, just flowed out of me for my dear friend!!! I said SEE Kim, THIS IS WHY a lady should ALWAYS do her hair EVERYDAY...
Because you just NEVERRRR know, when one of your electrical lines are gonna blow-up, start a fire on your block and cause ALLLL kinds of firemen to show up...it doesn't happen often...BUT JUST PREPARE FOR IT!!!!!!!! EVERYDAY, I do my hair...
WAITING for a
A MOMENT LIKE THIS!!!♥♥

A different connection...

.
So the other day, as I told you all about HERE, an electrical line on our street broke, blew, caused and fire and we had a HUGE power shortage in our neighborhood. Everyone on our block and for about 15 blocks around us had NO eltricity. So my sis and I decided instead of stayin in the dark that we should go for a drive.
.
We decided to take a ride to Frys by our house. Its like HUGE and they have this awesome lounge with couches and EVERTHING and we just chill there for a little while. After an hour or so we headed back home to see if the the electricity had been fixed. So we're drivin back and all the houses are still dark and i'm like AWWW BUMMMMMER!!!
.
Then I see this house with a light shining and i'm like, YES!!! I say to my sis, THERESA look, the lights ARE back on!!! My sis is like, Oh  no, Mom and I were drivin around before and we saw that man's house and we stopped to talk to the man of the house. He said that his house and their whole block didn't lose their electicity.
.
I was what?! Thats cRaZy!!! All the houses on the blocks behind that block had lost their electricity. All the houses on the blocks in front of that block had lost their electricity. However, there stood that block of houses, smack dab in the middle of all the darkness, with their lights shining bright. Aparently, that one block of houses was connected to a different electrical source than all the other blocks of houses around them.  They had a DIFFERENT CONNECTION.

God IS able!!!


"Mary, I've decided I want to quit smoking and I need your help." These are the words I heard from my newly founded friend Kimberlee Ford this past January. I didn't know what to say at the moment. She had moved into our house the week before. She was new in church and was struggling with living for God. I had watched the past week as my new friend tried to live the Apostolic life, dressing in modest clothes, long skirts and I would do her hair in a Pentecostal up-do, but then she would have to run off for a smoke.
.
It was so sad to see her trying so hard to live holy, but it was so obvious that she was bound by this addiction. Kim says she felt like she was unclean. Like Adam and Eve in the garden, she had to hide herself from God because of her failure, hindering her from close relationship. Its hard to really feel holy with a cloud of smoke around you and the stink of nicotine all over you. She had already overcome so much. Ten years of hard core drug use on meth she had overcome, but she couldn't manage to break away from smoking.
.
"It had such a strong hold on me," says Kim. "Even back in the day when I was on drugs, when it came between my drugs or cigarettes I chose cigarettes." I really wanted to see her overcome this in her life and a part of me was really happy that she wanted so badly to change, but at the same time I was scared. How could I help her? I have heard so many testimonies of God delivering people from smoking, yet I had my doubts.
.

OMW...WOW!!!

Sooooo magor DRAMA since I posted last night with my excuses for WHY I hadnt finished my testimony...which it was a good thing I waited cuz the ending came together in my mind thanks to God's inpiration...
ANYWAYZ, Kim FINALLLLY showed up for dinner an hour and FOUR minutes LATE!!! LOL! So of course as soon as Kim and Cesar show up... CHAOS!!! HAHA!!! So Kim gets her dinner, my sis and I had decided NOT to wait for her, so she gets her dinner and has taken about to bites and i'm like ooooo okaaaaaaay Kim, I have GOTTA tell you this story!!!
Sooooooooo I'm in the middle of telling her and my sister and the kids this really funny story about my nephew, which the story I'm SURE will be a whole a blog post in itself, but I'm totally into this story, I just got done throwing myself on the ground and hittin the floor to emphasize myself, everyone is of course LAUGHIN and...
BAM!!!

Thursday, September 15, 2011

YO peeps...

Okaaaaaaaaaay soooooooooo I'm still working on that testimony...see here is what happened!!!
I decided that a. I need to interview someone a little bit more for this testimony 2. My mom came over what lil gwapo and I felt like it would be RUDE to just keep writing on the computer...plus my nephew is like a HUGE distraction for me! C. I then started reading Sis. Shawnacee Moore's blog and its like a book, and it was VERY captivatiting and I COULD NOT stop reading it for about 3 hrs straight. (mommadooright.blogspot.com) If you read it you have to start from the BEGINNIN of her blog cuz the first post you see is really the end...LOL) 4. It was then time to cook dinner E. Then Jac called 6. I am NOW waitin for KIM WHO IS LATE for dinner...dinner is at 6 (It is now 6:26) and I HATE WHEN PEOPLE ARE LATE!!! (If your on time...YOUR LATE!!! LOL) BUT at least she text to let me know!!! I am NOW writin this and lettin you all know what is going on!!! Sooooo just continue to...
In the mean time please go check out my weight loss blog...
I DID UPDATE THAT ONE TODAY!!! :)))

Foot-in-mouth Syndrome!!!

Soooo i've come to the conclusion that I suffer from a SERIOUS case of the FOOT IN MOUTH SYNDROME!!! I say these things and then I realize, LIKE OMW!!! I TOTALLLY did not even mean it like that!!!!
For example us girls were gettin ready for California Adventure and when we were in the van one of the girls were like OH I forgot something...it was like an accessory or something and I'm like, Oh wellll who cares!!! Its the day before Youth Alive at DisneyLand so its not like there will be any Apostolic guys there ANYWAYZ!!! All the guys from my church were like, UH Mary yes there will be, i'm like NOOOOOOOO!!! There like, uh what ABOUT US??? Yeah MARY, i'm glad we see where we are in your world!!! I'm like OH!!! Oooooops!!! HAHAHAHA!!!
Then Thursday, on the way to Youth Alive I was talking to Jonathon Stultz, one of the guys in our church that just graduated from high school this past year. So we're in the van and i'm like, So Jonathon are you goin to college? (Cuz he is like SUPER smart and i would totally think he is in college, NOT that i'm sayin your NOT smart if you don't go to college!!!) And he is like yeah. And I'm like oh WELL I was just wondering cuz I haven't heard you talk about it much and he is like well theres not really much to say, its just school! So I ask him what he is gettin a degree in and he says either business or science.
Soooo I'm like OH what would you do with a science degree? ANd he says engineering and I'm like Oooooo engineers make GOOOOD money don't they?! And he is like welll most of the time just depending! So i'm like, WEEEELLLL... I'm sure WHATEVER they make is like WAAAAAAY more than MAINTENANCE!!!
It just gets like TOTALLY silent in the van...i'm thinkin like ummmm WHY is everyone being sooo quiet at this moment??? Then I realize that like half the guys, and most of the men in our church, includin our youth leader work in MAINTENANCE!!! AAAAAUUUUGGGHH!!!
I'm like NOOOO!!! I didn't mean it like that you guys!!!! And and the whole van just starts laughing as I try explain myself!!! No, no...See...my dad is a custodian and we were always low income and like I mean, I'm NOT sayin that you all are low income, i'm just sayin that an engineer....
They're like, yeah sure WHATEVER...and Bro. Sam our youth leader is like, YEAH if any guys come up to me and ask to talk to you at Youth Alive the first thing I'm gonna do is ask them if they work MAINTENANCE!?!?!
I'm like, NOOOOOOOOOOO I'm not like that!!! i'm NOT one of those girls that is out to marry a rich guy to buy her expensive stuff...I mean he does HAVE to have a job, that can hopefully support a family, you know pay the bills and hopefully a car...with AC, i mean a new outfit every once in a while would be really NICE, I'm cool with Goodwill and okaaaaaaaay I'll just....
SHUT UP NOW!!!!!!!
Awwww my feet taste soooo good!!! ;)

Break-up Scripture!!!

Soooo i've come to the conclusion that I am pretty much the ONLY person I know that can be sittin there, intently readin the Bible and just BUST UP LAUGHIN!!! Now, don't think that I am makin light of God's word, but I sometimes I just can't help but find HUMOR in it!!!
So we're on our way this past week to YOUTH ALIVE, and its pretty silent in the van. There are a few people quietly havin conversations and everyone else is just dozin in an out of sleep and I just burst into laughter and everyone looks at me and someone is like WHAT ARE YOU READIN??? I'm like, Oh the Bible!!!
Like okaaaaaaaay Mary!!! I'm like NO you ALL gotta listen to this, its like totally the ultimate break-scripture for all FEMALES!!! Like EVERY girl screams these words when a relationship goes DOWN!!! HAHA!!! Don't deny it girls, you know WE'VE all said it or at least thought it at one time or another!!!
Psalm 116:11
"I said in my haste, All men are liars."
BAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Straight from THE WORD!!! I LOVE IT!!! :)

Youth Alive 2011!!!

Okaaaaaaay soooo it was an AWESOME TRIP!!! After our drive to Burbank from Phoenix, we managed to get lost in the parkin garage headin to our hotel room...us girls were wonderin around some Civic center with ALL our luggage like ummm where is the Sheraton??? Finally I decided to use my mouth and asked an employee how to get there...LOL after the walk BACK we only had about 35 minutes to get ready for church Thursday night!!!

BUT I think our results for 35 minutes were pretty good!!!

Denae says I can always get ready faster than everyone else...I guess its just TALENT...LOL! Actually, I think its cuz I don't worry about PERFECTION!!!
Sooooooooo THIS is what Burbank looks like...I had always wondered!!!

 We're drivin on our way to the Burbank church and I was like OMW this is sooooooo cool...THERE IS A STREET CALLED VICTORY!!! Like WOW!!! I'm like wouldn't that be soooo cool if the church was located on Victory street??? Then Bro. Sam reads the directions and we turn onto Victory street and I'm like OMW I think its on VICTORY STREET!!! and it is and i'm like HOW COOL IS THAT??? Then I'm like, OMW if the church is ACTUALLY on Victory street they should like call it Victory Street CHURCH or something like that!!! And as we pull into the church we all start laughin when we read VICTORY TABERNACLE!!! LOL!!! WOW!!!

To think, a CHURCH on Victory Street, Called Victory Tabernacle, Obviousley Bro. White thought the same idea like THIRTY YEARS AGO!!! Bahaha!!! Two years before I was even born...WOW I guess great minds think ALIKE!!! Of course, I woulda known all this ALREADY if I had ACTUALLY read the Youth Alive Flier!!! HAHAHAHA!!!

Praise report!!!

MY CAMERA PHONE HAS BEEN MIRACULOUSLEY ...

HEALED!!!!
OMW!!! You all do NOT even know HOW amaZingly happy this makes me feel!!! As a self-portrait-photographer, I feel LOST with out my AWESOME lil motorola Kodak camera phone!!!

Some people are into iPhones, Androids (Appleberries for the AIO fans;) and Blackberry's... I'm just into MYSELF!!! LOL!!! ;) Actually, all these fancy, shmancey phones do NOT even take that great of pics  of ME, soooo i'm like okaaaay WHATs the point of havin one even??? Plus I HATE touch screens!!! My fingers ALWAYS touch more than one button at a time!!!!

Sooooo anywayZ, after my FLORIDA TRIP,  in July my phone went KAPOOT!!! I'm not sure if it was from tryin to take pics of myself in the ocean or from takin pics of myself in the rain, BUT it REFUSED to turn on!!! Well this just broke my sweet lil O heart!!! I LOVED THAT CAMERA PHONE!!!!!! :,(

Soooooo I was back to usin my ghetto lil O NOKIA!!! UGH!!!!! Well it wasn't really THAT big of a deal until I realized that I would NOT have a camera for YOUTH ALIVE!!! I was like OMW!!! This is sooooooo NOT GOOOOOOD!!! Well, Kim had agreed to let me use her camera, BUT I was kinda nervous, cuz I don't have the best track record with electronics!!!

WELLLL the other day I decided to JUST try something that my pastor had told me to do a while ago when I had dropped ANOTHER one of my phones in the pool, while tryin to take a pic of myself!!! Your probabley wondering WHAT my pastor had told me to do to my phone???

Are you thinkin PRAYER??? LOL If you are good guess but NOPE!!! HAHA!!! What my pastor told me to do sounds really weird and made EVERYONE in my household think I had lost my mind...which is pretty accurate...HAHA...

What I did was stick my phone in a BAG OF RICE!!! Sounds cRaZy RIGHT??? Kim said that I had OFFICIALLLLLY LOST IT!!! I'm like, this is what MY PASTOR said to do!!!

Wellll to be honest I REALLLLLY DID NOT think it was going to work cuz it TOTALLLLY didn't the last time I tried it!!! BUT today, I was like well...I better get that phone out and see if it works!!! AND GUESS WHAT??? IT DID!!!

HOW cRaZy AWESOME is that?!?!?! So I guess the concept behind this is that the rice absorbs the water out of the phone...anyWAYZ I don't really care about WHY OR HOW it works!!! I'm just really glad that it did!!!!!!

Sooooo i am REALLLLLY HAPPPY about this!!! and you know what this REALLLLY MEANS?!?! It MEANS that IF any of YOU all want a pic with me at YOUTH ALIVE, just let me know...CUZ I HAV AN AWESOME lil camera that WORKS!!!!!
THANK GOD FOR RICE!!!

P.S. Do you all think I should throw out the bag of rice that I stuck my phone in??? or should I save it for the next church potluck??? Bahahaha!!! (what you don't know won't hurt you!!! Bwahahahaha!!!;)

Mary's Mmm...Mmm...Goooood Apple Pie!!!

Soooooo I don't want to like brag to you all...okaaaaaay ACTUALLLY...maybe I do!!! ;) I just want to tell you all that I make the MOST AMAZIN Apple pie EVERRRR!!!

YOU WANNA KNOW JUST HOW GOOD MY APPLE PIE IS???
$100.00
GOOOOOOOOOOD!!!
Seriousley, you don't believe me??? After teachin Kim how to make it, her and I got HIRED to make nine apple pies for a pastor!!! NOW that alone for me WAS enough payment...KNOWIN that it was good enough that I could BRAG to EVERYONE about HOW good it was that a pastor asked me to make NINE of them...THAT WAS PAYMENT ENOUGH!!!!!!!
.
Howeverrrr, it gets BETTTTER cuz that pastor then, after ALREADY BUYIN ALLLL the ingredients, HE THEN payed Kim and I EACH $100.00 for makin the pies...Soooo if we did the math right...Kim and I figured it out to be around $22 per a pie!!! WOW!!! THATS EXPENSIVE....
BEAT THAT MARIE CALENDERS!!!
Now I could be STINGY and NOT share my recipe with you all...seeing that I'm single and trying to get a husband I MIGHT just want to keep this AMAZIN recipe from ALL the other single girlZ...BUT NO...out of the kindness, generosity of my wonderful, giving, sharing, humble, beautiful lil O heart...I would like to share it with you all!!! ENJOY!!! :)))

WHAT YOU NEED!!!

1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling
1 teaspoon of nutmeg, to taste
apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced, (Kim and I like to dice them real small like and we mix up red and green apples to get a sweet and tangy taste)
-   Crystal Sugar, for sprinkling
-    Just some butter
- Pie crust (Either make your own or buy it pre-made and rolled out...thats what I do right NOW cuz of my HCG diet I can't get any oil in my skin or else it absorbs it and you gain weight!!! But I do LOVE makin and kneadin dough...I just can't do it right now...soooo some time I can share the recipe for that with you for NOW I'm just gonna say PILLSBURY!!! LOL;)
WHAT YOU DO!!!
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Mix together the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and apples in a bowl. Put all of your mixture in the pan with the bottom crust. Dollop the top with sum chunks of butter (4-6) then put the top crust on and using a fork or your fingers make the two go together...
THEN my goal is that NOT just the inside of my pie tastes GOOOOOOOOOD but EVERY part of my pie!!! Soooo what I do is melt in a bowl some butter, then I add 1/2 tspn of cinnamon, mix it together, then with a pastry brush, I brush it on top...THEN just for one last added touch I sprinkle some more sugar on top!!!
Bake at 450 for 35-40 minutes!!! Tastes best warm with cool whip OR Ice cream...mmmm!!!
OH and when you make this pie...MAKE SURE you have a pan underneath cuz...my pie is not nice and neat!!! Its kinda like me...
A big mess of absolute
SWEET and JUICY
DELICIOUSNESS!!! ;)

Youth Pastor Advice!!!

Welll... as most of you all know, I am a VERY minstry minded person. I felt recently a special burden to bring back a ministry I first began to feel called to as a teenager....


So some of girls were sittin around today havin a VERY SPIRITUAL CONVERSATION, talkin about guys and BEING FISHER'S of men!!! ;) (Heeeey you don't think thats spiritual??? READ THE WORD!!!;))))


Soooooooo MY YOUTH PASTOR, hearing our conversation was jokin around about us girls gettin our hooks and bait ready for Youth Alive...then he gave me some VERY GOOOOD ADVICE!!!! LOLOL!!! He said,

"You know Mary, I think its ABOUT TIME, you start CASTING YOUR NET ON THE OTHER SIDE!!!"

HAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm like NICE!!! YEAH, That sounds like a GOOOOOD IDEA TO ME!!! I guess i'm like the disciples, i've been laboring on the WRONG SIDE!!!! Soooo like the disciples, i'm not even gonna question this AMAZIN advice from my youth pastor,  and being the obedient, submissive person I am....

CALIFORNIA HERE I COME!!! ;)

When You Live For God...

Life is like pizza-


When it's good it's great -

when it's bad...
 it's still good!!!

It's like the song says, ♪♪I'd rather be in a storm with JESUS, than smooth sailing alone!!! ♪♪I'd rather know that He's in my vessal than to navigate on MY OWN!!!♪♫♪ Living for God isn't ALWAYS EASY...but no matter what, its STILL the BEST life EVERRRR!!!!
.
"Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee."
(Psalm 63:3)
