A to Z - Jesus is for me :)

From A to Z Jesus is the one for me!!

The following is an excerpt from my sermonette that I presented at Regency Church of God - Divine Design Women's Conference on Saturday, December 12 2009. The Lord showed me how He can take the negative and make it something positive - only GOD can do this - be blessed!

If your Annoyed – get Anointed.

You may be Bitter, but Jesus makes you Better.

Have you been criticized? Turn it around and make it Christ sized.

Depression – He Defeats!

Evil turns into Encouragement.

For Fear, He says have Faith while you wait.

Garbage in / Garage Out – GOD in / GOD out!

That Hurt He Heals!

Think you’re going Insane, only Imagine!

He takes our Junk and turns them into Jewels.

That enemy that tries to Kill, God will Keep away.

He takes Lies and gives Love.

Turns Madness in to Mercy.

All your Nasty is New.

Oppression meets Opportunities

and Life’s Pressures become a Pleasure.

No Questions asked….You are a Queen.

Rejection walks in Redemption.

Stumbling blocks are now your Stepping Stones.

Tough is made Tender.

Useless to Useful.

No longer the Victim, but the Victor.

Wounds are for your Witness

and when you feel X-out by the world, Jesus says he is like the Xerox machine – copy Me.

God is not Burger King – where you have it your way…He is the King of Kings – Yaweh.

And only God can take a Zombie and fill it with Zeal.

Glory to GOD!!

Love you all, Sistas!!

Heavy Heart - God knows

Today has been a difficult day for me. I really don't have to give the details, just trust me when I say I have struggled all day long. It seems that whenever I have a conference schedule that the week of I have something major to happen. I think it is God's way of showing me that I have to have complete and total dependency on him. Which I believe I am aware of that, but God continues to show me over and over that I can't do what He has called of me without him. And I would not even try!!

So, today I have been at home most of the day by myself. I did go to the soup kitchen for a little while, but I had to leave. I was of no use to myself let alone anyone else. I knew in my heart if I came home I could at least find comfort. And after a good cry, and feeling sorry for myself I stood up and shook myself and realized that GOD is LARGE and in CHARGE!! Actually, someone called and my answering machine message played out loud and that's when I heard my voice saying those words too me! At first, I wanted to throw a pillow at the machine, but then I thought to myself..it doesn't matter what I am facing...GOD is LARGE and in CHARGE!! and Sista Staci you do not have to be!! Praise the LORD ~ I am not in charge!

I do not have to "fix" this....I do not have to "control" the outcome....I do not have to "understand it"!! I just have to obey what GOD calls of me!! If I do my best; GOD will do the rest!

I love JESUS with all my heart and I'm so glad that he is my friend...and while I love the Sista-hood...JESUS is a friend that sticks closer than a Sista.....and that makes me feel mo-better!!

Loving and Living To Serve,

Sista Staci :)
