The Comforter

As a single woman I know I am not alone in desiring companionship and the covering that a husband is to provide.  While taking a break from work I was reminded that we do have a comforter, someone to listen, someone to cover us daily, someone to point us in the right direction, someone to love us in the most intimate way! God loves us and the Holy Spirit is our covering! I don't know about you but I'm done with openly receiving comfort from the wrong places whether aware or unaware, done with voluntarily inviting stressful relationships into my life all for the sake of so called companionship! When that time comes for a healthy relationship, it will not pull me away but encourage me to grow closer in relationship with Christ!

John 14:16-17

The Message (MSG)

The Spirit of Truth
15-17"If you love me, show it by doing what I've told you. I will talk to the Father, and he'll provide you another Friend so that you will always have someone with you. This Friend is the Spirit of Truth. The godless world can't take him in because it doesn't have eyes to see him, doesn't know what to look for. But you know him already because he has been staying with you, and will even be in you!
Single but Complete With The Holy Spirit!

iBelieve

Over the past few weeks, I have been in a constant state of gratitude. I have taken the time to recognize the grace of God over my life and it has given me another level of faith and confidence.  What has taken place is something that can be seen on the outside in the doors that God has opened, but I know that the most significant change has occured within.  I, like many of you, have faced obstacles in my life that have sometimes made it hard to dream beyond what I could see.  Although its a great place to start, I have learned that it takes more than the profession of faith to really believe that all things are possible. To believe is to know without a doubt that what you profess is a living word that will come to past.  This realization has become the significant change within, "To Believe".
I had the awesome opportunity to share my heart with the congregation of Calvary Revival Church, Norfolk, VA.  Bishop Mcbath and his congregation welcomed me with open arms and it was a moment that I will never forget! God keeps his promises and I am a true believer!
Here are a few snapshots of my experience! Enjoy :)
