Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving


 This year at my home we are not doing the traditional Thanksgiving dinner.  My family and I decided to do the traditional dinner for Christmas and make it spectacular.  With Mom getting up in years, almost 80 years old, we felt it would be too strenuous for her, the back to back cooking (Thanksgiving and Christmas).  Although my sister and I are in the kitchen cooking with her, Mom never takes a break.  And Mom will not allow my sister and I to prepare the Thanksgiving meal without her. When Mom was presented with option of not preparing the traditional dinner for Thanksgiving and cooking for Christmas, she was happy.  If Mom would have said, “No we are going to have the traditional dinner”, we would be serving turkey today.  Instead, we are having stuffed shells, meat balls, string beans, garlic toast and homemade cakes for dessert.  Needless to say, we are sooo looking forward to Christmas. The house is full of excitement and everyone is looking forward to Christmas, the celebration of our savior’s birth.  The house will be decorated this week and we are going to enjoy every moment of it.  Mom is in the kitchen right now enjoying a leisurely cup of coffee and asking, “When will dinner be ready?” Gotta love this women – sitting back and calling the shots.

Miriam

Miriam was the big sister of Moses. Her name (sometimes rendered as Mary in English) means 'bitter' although it could also signify 'one who loves or is loved by Yahweh'. Yahweh means 'the self-existent one'. Yahweh is one of the ways the children of Israel referred to God. Meet the family Amram and Jochebed were the father and mother of Miriam, Aaron and Moses. Moses was the youngest of the three yet became the leader of the pack (Exodus 2:3-4; Exodus 6:20; Numbers 26:59). Moses was the man who led Israel out of Egypt. As the big sister of the family Miriam knew all the secrets. Women often get to know about things that men don't. When Pharaoh of Egypt decreed the death of all Israel baby boys in a desperate attempt to curb the growth of Israel, Amram and Jochebed put baby Moses into a waterproof basket and set it on the river in an attempt to save his life. It was Miriam who was watching the basket when the daughter of Pharaoh discovered it. It w

What Happen To Your Rulership?

My desire is for women to be restored to their rightful place of rulership of Grace, Femininity, Beauty, Temperance, and Excellence.  Together they work from within and shine outwardly. The enemy of our soul works counterclockwise in that he uses the exterior and destroys what is on the inside. There is a direct correlation between rulership and judgment.  In order to effectively rule, there must be the practice of sound judgment.  When rulership is void of sound judgment, a poor rulership is inevitable.  Rulership is a choice.  You can either rule or be ruled.  Walking in rulership is important because it sets order and establishes boundaries.  God (YAH) has given us rulership over our conduct, appearance, and speech.  These things have rulership over you by choice. Rulership is the difference between YAH's people and the world. Rulership is living the way YAH (God) intended for us to live before the foundation of the world. It is time to take a long hard look in the mir

Is MakeUp Deceptive?

 Is there something deceptive about makeup? I believe it is a topic worth exploring. My interest in this topic awakened after receiving a makeup kit which a family member ordered for me online.  When the item arrived the name on the kit gave me an uneasy feeling because I understood the meaning of the name.  Dismissing the feeling I went ahead and used the makeup I had anxiously waited for. But the Lord brought it to my remembrance again and this time I could not ignore.    The Beauty Industry in the US, which includes hair care and skincare, is a 445 billion market (Forbes, May 2017). The US has the largest cosmetic market in the world. It was expected in 2016 to exceed 62 billion in revenue and is expected to maintain positive growth through 2018, (Market Research.com 2016) In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which regulates cosmetics, defines cosmetics as “intended to be applied to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or
