THOUGHTS FOR VISION SPECIAL REPORT

THE COMFORT OF GOD

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. In this new season, one word comes to mind: COMFORT. We want comfort food, we get comfort items to keep us warm and whatever have you. But do you know the True Comforter? As we go through hard times, God is there to comfort us every step of the way. We are to comfort our brothers and sisters in Christ in their time of need as well. So before getting the mac & cheese or that cozy blanket, go to the Father first. He will comfort you like no other!!!!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHILE YOU WAIT?

Did a great show this month about how to truly "wait on God". Decided to make this show the blog for this month.  Listen and enjoy!!!!

YOU ARE GOD'S MASTERPIECE

HALFWAY MARK

Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. With almost half of the year gone, IT'S TIME TO TAKE INVENTORY!!!! What have you accomplished so far? What have been your setbacks? Don't hold onto the past any longer because it's serving no purpose in your future!!!! The Bible says that your best days are ahead of you!!!! Don't get off track--keep focused on what God has for you to do in this season.

KNOW YOUR WORTH

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you (Matthew 7:6). You are God's masterpiece. Don't allow others to treat you with disrespect. If you're around people that can't see the fullness of you, then it's time to make some new friends. Proverbs 27:17 equals friends building each other up to iron sharpening iron. Anyone that constantly puts you down is NOT a friend. People will not know your worth if you don't know.

RESURRECTION SUNDAY 2012

BEAMING LIGHTS

Pro 15:30(KJV) The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat. Pro 15:30(NLT) A cheerful look brings joy to the heart; good news makes for good health. In honor of Women's History Month, I want women everywhere to understand their true worth. Proverbs 31 truly explains the heart of REAL women. We can be housewives, business owners, etc.; we can be whatever God has it set for us to do. Understand that there are SEASONS to everything; so you need to do these things at the RIGHT time (not on your time). We are the BREATH AND THE ATMOSPHERE of our surroundings. Wherever we go we should, as a whole, brighten someone's day and not cast darkness. There's something about a woman and her gift to shine. Don't take it lightly, ladies. Take care and God bless.

BLACK HISTORY IS ALL AROUND US

As I look around, I see Black History everywhere. I see it when I take a seat on the bus (in the front, of course). I see it when I eat in a restaurant (not a colored sign to be found). I see it when I look at my college diploma. I see it when I cast my vote on Election Day. I see it when I look at pictures of those who paved the way before me. I think of the Memphis Sanitation Strike of 1968, where the workers on protest held I AM A MAN signs. Something so simple, but poignant to remember!!!! We are men and women that matter in this world!!!! BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE ARE MEN AND WOMEN IN CHRIST JESUS!!!! Never overlook the history that surrounds you!!!!

NEW YEAR BLESSINGS

ARE YOU LOOKING TO BE REFRESHED? ARE YOU LOOKING FOR CHANGE? ARE YOU LOOKING TO BE IN A NEW PLACE IN YOUR LIFE? THEN YOU CAN'T REMAIN THE SAME!!!! I MEAN, YOU CAN BUT DON'T EXPECT THINGS TO BE DIFFERENT. ARE YOU GOING TO REALIZE, ONE AND FOR ALL, THAT YOU HAVE IN YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED? YOU HAVE IT BECAUSE GOD HAS PLACED IT IN YOU ALREADY. YOU JUST HAVE TO TRUST IN GOD THAT HE WILL USE WHAT HE HAS PLACED IN YOU FOR HIS GLORY. THEN, AND ONLY THEN, YOU WILL ENTER INTO THAT NEW PLACE. HAVE A BLESSED NEW YEAR!!!!
