Well, well, well...


Family,


Have you ever been in a room of people and someone you haven’t seen in a while walks in and says..."Well, well, well?” I have. That saying could mean so many things depending on the relationship and interaction. If the person was surprised, it would be a good thing and probably followed by “looks who’s here.” But if not, the sarcasm can hit your soul like a fiery dart. There is power in tones and in most cases it can have a strong impact on a person’s morning, noon, or night.


In the book of Matthew 7:12 (AMP) it says: So then, in everything treat others the same way you want them to treat you, for this is [the essence of] the Law and the [writings of the] Prophets.


We live in times where applying scripture is a lost art. People seem to grow further away from just good ole sound doctrine. Treating someone the way you want to be treated is very important in any interaction, verbal or nonverbal. Now, are we going to treat others the same way we want to be treated, by taking into consideration the power of our tone and words? Let’s read Proverbs 17:22 (TPT): “A joyful, cheerful heart brings healing to both body and soul. But the one whose heart is crushed struggles with sickness and depression.” 


Just for today, is it possible for you to treat someone with kindness and allow joy to enter into your heart? Remember life is too short to live with regrets.Have you ever had to think about what it means to be alone, let alone soak in negativity? So many people are living in their head and God may send them along your pathway. The question is will you make time to bring joy or treat them kindly? In the words of Benjamin Franklin ~ “Lost time is never found again.”


Well, well, well, it’s never too late to get it right. Today love on someone just for the sake of kindness and work to treat others the way you want to be treated.  


Question:  When was the last time you really laughed?

Love your sister in Christ,

It's Not Over

Family,  Please forgive my pause in posting. Every year around April, I fall into this habit of wanting to post on social media and update my blog. I am truly a creature of habit and I hope you can relate. I want you to remember social media will not keep you committed to this faith walk but Jesus will. In the meantime, I’ve been working on so many things. Two major ones are ministry (serving) and fellowship (in communication with the people). I have been in the faith full time, around the clock, nonstop work - “Turn Down For What!”All the while, praying, fasting, and watching the power of God save souls, heal hearts, minds, and bodies. I have witnessed miracles performed like a cancer diagnosis turning to nothing. Family, some real things happen when Jesus is at the center of it all. When we have faith (believing in the unseen) you work differently and you go places that many will say, “I am not too sure about this.” This time has reminded me that our gifts do make room for us as ...

Welcome!

Welcome to the Family! I decided to start a blog to inspire and motivate people. Over the last few years, the Lord has shown me that he will use me to reach all. When you visit my blog you will receive a few things Motivation, Wisdom, Truth, but most importantly a family with an abundance of love. God has a purpose for each and every one of us. Will you take one small step a day to get closer to Him and the abundant life he has for you?  Lets walk together.  Love your sister in Christ,  Latoya aka Lola

Love Until it hurts, Love until it works!

  Family,  There is a song by Foreigner called “I Want To Know What Love Is.” I remember asking the Lord the very same question. Then, Christ came into my heart and revealed that in order to know Love (in the form of God), I had to know Sacrifice (in the form of Christ). When I began to discover that it was an act of love that saved  my soul from a place of despair, it was unbelievable. It takes wisdom to know what love is and what love did and continues to do. 1 Corinthians 13 explains it all. But I want to focus on one verse in that book 1 Corinthians 13:8a Love never fails.  Do you ever wonder why Love gets a bad rap? I have heard so many references to love, like it’s blind, it’s mean, it’s rude, it doesn’t exist, or  it’s impossible. However, none of those statements tell the truth about what love is but rather expresses an emotion someone felt after someone said “I love you.” Until I read the Bible and gained insight that God is love (see 1 John 4:8 ), hear...
