So what did you expect?
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. (Proverbs 4:23, NIV)
I recently experienced some situations that allowed me to see clearly that my heart was unguarded. The Holy Spirit began to enlighten me of the broken fence in my life – one that invited certain types of people to walk across the lawn of my heart, leaving their unwanted tracks behind.

Early last year I was occupied for a few months; I was
assisting someone in establishing their life’s dream then suddenly
the scene changed and now I am no longer a part of that
situation.

I have taken mental notes on my life lately, and one lesson I have learned is the importance of getting up after falling down and not allowing life’s setbacks to prevent us from staying on-track.

It’s 1-1-11, The first day of a brand new year and a new decade. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Over the past few years I have made connections; some because of family ties (our family knew them, so by default I became connected), others because of work and others from churches I attended. Because I LOVE people dearly I am one who dislikes separation, strife or disagreements of any type – but I realize it is a part of life.
From the first moment our church choir started rehearsing Maurette Brown Clark’s “It Ain’t Over”, a stirring began deep within me.
For as long as I can remember I have fought through some sort of setback or obstacle just to do anything worthwhile. I think it would have been far easier for me to either accept things as they are or just sit down somewhere and do nothing. But what I have learned is this:
Nowadays, working on projects (at my paid job and otherwise) is not something I do just to pass the time. I am pushing HARD to meet self-imposed deadlines, gaining guidance and revelation from the Holy Spirit our Comforter and gleaning advice from mentors (as compared against the Word of God, the Bible) daily. I am at a different place than where I was just one year ago. Jan 1, 2010 and Jan 1, 2011 are almost worlds apart for me. Day by day new ideas come to mind, and I am working diligently to put in place all I have been given.
I must say this to those reading this blog entry: Keep fighting. Keep praying. Keep fasting. Keep growing. Keep going. It Ain’t Over! Stay the course. Keep reading. Keep interceding. Keep believing.
And don’t stop dreaming! This blog website is a product of one of my dreams.
For those who were unaware, I suffered a serious fall earlier this week that took me off my feet for about 3.5 days.
