Time to make things right!

As the new year has begun and new revelations fill my head, I find myself discovering that I have to make a lot of changes in my life in order to get things right with and for the day that I yearn to go home to my Heavenly Father in heaven.  

As very clearly stated in the Bible, since Adam & Eve sinned; we are all sinners.  There is no way around the sinful natures we have naturally come by, but there is a way to seek forgiveness and repent for those natures.

God knows that my past is definitely not free from sin, but when I finally came around and found God; I prayed and asked for that forgiveness and I've repented.  I wish I could say I've learned from every mistake, but just not possible.  So I'm still seeking His righteousness, trying to do better, and with age, the realization of "doing better", well it's a big ole slap in the face kinda thing sometimes.  

As a mom now, I truly believe that some of my past will give me a good insight to what my child will experience or witness or even be tempted by; although I wish she would never know of the true dangers and evils that lurk out there.  This world is just plain crazy!  But...I want her to also know the better side, the path to Jesus and everything He has to offer.  I hope and pray that as being a better Christian, as changing my ways, my daughter will have someone to look up to and someday look back and think, "dang, my mom did know what she was talking about". LOL  I just truly want her to have every positive inspiration possible, and I truly hope that I can be one of them.

So with that, it all starts with me and in the home, in the church, in my marriage, my family, etc.  One thing I've begun doing is making a pact to become healthier and eat better.  I want a long lasting earthbound relationship with my daughter and to do that, I have to get healthy.  My family has a long line of health issues, and I for one DO NOT want to succumb to those issues.  I want to blow past them and teach my daughter healthy habits and good exercise is a rountine, not a have to do to get healthy or whatever.  Now with a lot of prayer and motiviation from others, I have to keep active and be good about going to the gym and working out and I believe I've finally found a routine that will be a success story in my book, KoKo Fit.  It truly is a wonderful concept!

And with that I leave you, farewell and good night all...till the next time!  Peace out & God Bless!

Daily Devotions

With now 2 days of daily devotions under my belt, I've been drawn to scripture that I've never once heard before and again I am in awe of how awesome God works. I feel with every read I am getting closer to God and it feels so great. I feel connected again and even though it's only the beginning, I can't wait to keep going and gain even more in depth time with God.
Bring me the word God, I crave you, I crave your presence, I crave your wisdom and knowledge. Amen!

To Be A Mentor...

On Sunday, my husband and I will be attending our first mentor meeting to be new mentors for FPU (Financial Peace University) at Gateway.  I am so excited, but will admit, a little nervous as well.  I can easily speak in front of audiences and I can capture a crowd's attention, but this time it's a little different, as this time I will be a guiding leader to help some people as they embark on a journey to find financial peace with God's wisdom and guidance.  I look forward to this new adventure so very much, I just pray it do it with humility, grace, conscience and heart all in the guidance and spirit of Gods embrace.  I hope and pray to be a worthy leader for Gods words.  Please God help me to be an inspirations to you, to others, to my family, my husband, my daughter and to myself as well.

Thank you & God Bless.

1st Under God

So I just finished a week long conference at Gateway Church & it was more than awesome! It was inspirational! There were such amazing speakers like Tony Evans, Jack Hayford, & of course my pastor Robert Morris. On top of that, Kari Jobe & Anthony Evans also performed!
I feel so renewed after this conference, it was spiritually refreshing & heart churning. I am so blessed to have been able to attend the conference. Thank you Lord!
