The Roller-Coaster

Posted on February 4th, 2010

Over the past few days, I find myself reflecting on where I am and where I want to be….and I have to admit…my attitude sucks!

I’ve been angry, hurt, lost, alone, scared, bitter, jealous and many other things…and I feel like I have been on one big emotional roller-coaster ride. But I have a feeling this this is exactly where God wanted me to be. I believe He wanted in place where He could bring all this yuck out of me so that I could find healing and deliverance from things that have been holding me back.

I feel like poor ole Peter. He was with Jesus every day…He heard Jesus and saw all the miracles but when the push came to shove…Peter went on the roller-coaster. He denied Jesus…even though this is what Jesus said he would do! Then came anger, bitterness, hurt, humility and a whole bunch of other yuckies that made Peter realize what a stupid, hard-headed fool he had been.

Humans are fickle, hard-headed, imperfect…but God loves us anyway! And in that love He holds Jesus up in front of us as a mirror and says, “take a good long look”….and that is when we go away into our closet and weep bitterly with tears of repentance…just like Peter.

Once we come to that place…God has a lump of clay He can finally do something with…..

God bless you!!!

I’m Coming Back!

Posted on February 3rd, 2010

Yesterday I posted a video to TheRoseAwakens channel:


These past few month have been difficult…and in some ways these past 7 months has been a “trial of my faith”. It was a clearing and cleansing process…and it has been a time of being alone in the desert with God…discovering who and what I am.

As I said in the video, I feel like TheRoseAwakens is a shadow and a compromise…and in some ways…it was a step toward backsliding. I didn’t realize that at the time, but now as I look back and see how God kept me and sustained me….I have to give Him all the praise and the Glory for that!

Reaching 40 Goals

Posted on January 29th, 2010

I decided to create a list of goals that I want to achieve before September 18, 2010 – my 40th birthday.

  1. Lose at least 50 pounds
  2. Learn to love exercise again
  3. Play at least 3 songs on the piano/keyboard
  4. Be a Beachbody coach
  5. Be more assertive

I’ll probably add more to this list as we go along…who knows….but this is a starting place.
