Tava's First Visit To The...

Image
Philadelphia Zoo Oh what fun we had at the Philadelphia Zoo today. It was Tava's first visit and I am so glad that I was able to take her. It was just the two of us with hundreds of people -- I have never seen soooooo many people at the zoo of all the times I have been there. I have been there at least 5 times that I can count maybe more. And oh my lions -- people and children everywhere you look. Anyway, that did not deter us from having fun and seeing as many animals as possible. I am quiet sure we saw at least 95% of everything there is to see at the zoo and that is a big deal to me. Of all the times I have visited the zoo I have walked away many times knowing that I did not have the chance to see as much as I wanted to see but today I was able to see alot. I am thankful for that. My niece is four and she liked it for the most part but I had fun -- maybe more than her -- lol. Well, she really did enjoy the water fountain and her ice cream and the turtles. I think the tur

Question of the Week If you would like to know more just visit Internet Cafe If you could go back in time to a pivotal point in your young life and give yourself one word/sentence of advice, and know that you would accept the advice, what would it be? Imagine what a gift it would be if we could actually go back in time and give ourselves advice…Hmm… Of course we cannot, but I think this is a great question for us to ponder. Although, I think many of us would agree that we learned more from the mistakes we made, but wouldn’t it be nice to not have to learn the “hard way” in some situations? Have fun with the question this week. Answer: My advice to myself would be "Don't be in such a hurry to grow up, take it one day at a time and enjoy the journey." That would be the advice I would give myself beginning at the age of 13. At that time I just moved away from my father who lived in NY to living with my aunt in PA. I met some friends who were older than myself. Because I

"I Am" Bible Study -- Lesson 2

Lesson Two - Beautiful To God Background reading: Exodus 2, Acts 7, Isaiah 53 Once again I came across this study a while back and it has truly blessed me. To get the full reading you should visit the website. If you are interested just simply click on the picture above or on the sidebar. Thank you! Discussion Questions: 1. What is your initial response when anyone suggests you are beautiful? My initial response to this comment is usually thank you with a smile. Lately I have been adding a "thank you, Lord" and reminding myself that my beauty comes from the Spirit of Christ which dwells in me. 2. Do you find you engage in a lot of negative 'self-talk'? How much of your thought life does this form of thinking consume? I have to really think about this one... I find that I may have negative thoughts about myself whenever I am trying to find something formal to wear especially because I have issues with my body and my hair. I am currently going through major changes in

A Fun-Filled Weekend!

Tava, and my godson, Elijah, were here with me this past weekend and oh what a joy it was to have them here. We played with blocks, we painted pictures, we read a book together, we sang, dance, ran around the house, eat, sleep, and watch "Alice In Wonderland." Then finally we went to Church on Sunday and praised the Lord for being so good to us. Hallelujah! Amen! We had so much fun! I love these two children so much. Thank you, Lord, for putting them into our lives.
