Big Things are coming!

I'm sorry it's been awhile since Ihave engaged with you, my faithful readers. A lot has been going, I hope that you are able to forgive me. 

Now, with that said I will try to update you on what has been going on with me lately. As you all know from my previous entry Just(in) Grief 2 I've been greiving the loss of the Love of my life for over a year now. As of two weeks ago I was hit with yet another loss of someone very close to me, my ex stepchild and sons brother. It was as unexpected incident in which he lost his life. This rocked me to my core. He was such a special child, he knew no stranger and was always happy. At the memorial they made the comment that the song by Pherrell Happy was a great song that made you think of him, and it couldn't be more true. He's resting with God now and although I am truly saddened by his absence from us I am happy that he is in the best place he could be. After Trevon's passing I finally took the step to seek help and join a grief support group. As of right now I'm not sure it's helping because it seems as though everyone there has lost either a spouse or child and my situation isn't typical. I won't stop going though I know I need the support. 

I know that was heavy for the beginning of the blog but it's not the only news that I have. As you all know I have been working on releasing my book called Geneveive Lost. I am happy to announce that it is available for pre-order on Kindle on the Amazon website for 3.99. (Shameless plug) TheRelease date is set for March 15th 2019. However, that is not the best news I have. The best news I have so far is that I will being doing a pre-release book signing at a local salon on the 20th! BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! I will also be a guest on a local radio station as well! I can't tell you how excited I am about both of these events. 



In december 2018 I bought a planner that said "A goal without a plan is just a wish" I had no idea what I was going to put in this planner at the time because honestly I kind of suck at goals and the planning of them, however, I am happy to say that as the year progresses I am slowly but surely filling my calendar with dates not only to network but to market myself as an author. Might be a little premature but I'm on cloud nine and I feel like just by the upcoming events alone I have made it. LoL I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself. I also have an opportunity to interview some local authors for this blog come the middle of next month. So stay tuned for that. I promise I will get back to keeping up with this blog I just ask that you all bear with me. Thank you again for your support. 

Until Next time

Get Ready

I was walking at work one day when I heard a small still voice say "get ready". It stopped me in my tracks because there was no one else around other than myself. Get ready? Get ready for what? "Get ready". In my heart, I knew what it meant but I was and somewhat am not so much reluctant but anxious about what was ahead of me. 

Increase

How many of us have prayed for financial deliverance? How many of us have had faith that the Lord would give us that deliverance? As Christians, I am certain that we all have. "God, why do I struggle so much financially? X amount of dollars is not enough to live off of. Lord, I need financial deliverance!" Those are all things I've cried out and prayed before. I'm also the one who takes what little I have and puts it into the offering bucket, praying desperately along with pastor to press it down and shake it up so that it will be returned unto me tenfold. To what avail?  The truth is, I have done absolutely nothing to change my financial situation. Week after week, month after month, year after year I have prayed desperately for increase, and like so many others, yet I have been left wanting.  As I read the scriptures above I suddenly remembered The Parable Of The Talents ( Matthew 25:14-30 ). This passage is about a man who decided that while he was off

Mental Health Pandemic

This is more or less an impulsive post. After many years, for the first time, I decided to watch Good Will Hunting. Of course, I'd seen it referenced in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, but I'd never once actually seen the movie. I was quite shocked to see that Robin Williams was in this movie. Although the movie was an award-winning drama and was meant to play at your emotions, the entire time I couldn't help but feel saddened by the absence of Robin Williams in real life.
