Go Canadian TV..in the case of Instant Star I have both soundtracks! I dunno...but I'm superduper addicted and I think I should let you in on my addiction...
but then again..I'd hate to stumble unto bloggerpart

I don't do death well. Let me rephrase that. I don't do death of people I who are not saved well. But mostly I don't do death well.

You'd think I would be able to handle it. If I were following tradition...I'd be in mourning weeds for the next 2o years with no hopes of marriage till the mourning is over...I've lost that much or rather that many.

I read TXKJUN's post and I felt sad. I feel that much. My prayers are with you my love. Just lean more into God and the word at this time. From personal experience it will take you through it. Just remember I'm saying a special prayer for you and yours.

“For the Lord is full of compassion and mercy, long-suffering, and very pitiful, and forgiveth sins, and saveth in time of affliction.� Ecclesiasticus, 2:11

"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.� Thornton Wilder

What treasures am I talking about that makes me alive? The treasure I have in realizing that my God is full of compassion, mercy, long-suffering and very pitiful and forgiving of sins and he saves me in my affliction! That's enough to keep me up and running for an eon. My point is highlighted by quotes!

I've been thinking about the state of things in my household. Yay household. Life is just hurtling on. Last month I lost my grandfather. Next month my mother gets married. If you told me this would be what's going on in say March of this year before my mother left for Jamaica. I'd call you a liar to your face.

Life is strange and interesting. Also life is about the people in your life and how they shape your outlook on things. Its about priorities. Three years ago if you had told me that I could lose my grandfather and not want to drink my way through all the liquor in New York City and then eventually kill myself...I would have again laughed in your face and then walked off and gone and partied like there was no tomorrow to get the imagery out of my head.

Don't worry..this isn't some cheat on how to screw Adsense. I know better than that. I'm not trying lose the little money that probably won't hit my bank account any time soon...However, there are some webmasters and people who have online business like the cafepress people that for lack of a better word, litter the blog sites and are trying to make a little change. However...the internet is gigantic at this point and stretching everywhere. While your products might be hot stuff and you might build a little base through word of mouth to really get some turnover you are going to need web traffic. Everyone is trying to get trafffic to their sites and are using all the free stuff that's out there and that's great ... but you need to invest a little bit..well at least that's what I think anyways...so why not go to a place where you can buy the traffic that you need? Some place that you can trust to get the traffic that you need that won't rob you blind with little results in the process. I don't want this to turn out to be a risky investment for SEO's and internet marketers and such...so I'm saying go with someone that you can trust. Its not a big surprise that I'm going to round out this blog with a recommendation.. but I think you shoud seriously consider going to the site below and checking them out. It can only help an get you in mind of what you need.

Good Morning America
Here is the President
With the lies for today
Please continue what you were doing
As he gambles our lives away.

Don't they check the President
For addictions?
But I guess its the way of things
in American politics
Hey if the Mayor can do crack
Then the high grade cocaine
lingering
that creates weapons of mass disgust
in the American viewership
is no cause to complain

You touched me.
You opened your heart
and you touched me.
I recoiled in shock
and surprise
but you touched me.
When I thought I
could lay down and die
you touched me.
You rescued me from
inside myself
and traded the beauty
of a thing
for the truth of it
and in so doing
you touched me.
Picked up my broken
heart and mended it.
Placing the pieces
together and sealing
with your love

Alot of our family friends are moving to Florida in spades. The land down there is cheap...I guess. I want to go because if you think New York is a great place to shop....shoes for $3 are shoes that belong in my closet. Funky and cheap..and stylish and expensive. Don't fault me for cheap shoes ok...I'm a college student...I can't afford to hemorrage money here...
There's also Disney and the chance to travel the swamps and the beaches and whatnot...its a great place to visit...I guess I'm rambling about this because I want to go!

Title nice huh? I believe that the Bible is the Word of God...atheists...you've already picked my bones bare on this...I'm going to hold unto this so lets keep it on the matter at hand.

I love everyone. I don't hate anybody. I try and I fail at that miserably. I'd also like to state before you say that I'm coming from an ignorant place that I was 'baptized' Catholic as an infant....and went to Religious life classes faithfully and Confirmation classes...I'm not pulling it all out my butt...

She's not out there fighting crime or anything..at least I don't think so. She however has been my strong tower all my life. I love her so very very much.
My mother had me when she was 19. It was sort of a pattern, because my grandmother had her when she was 19.
My mother was scared, because she was going to school at the time. She also had a baby for a married man, whose wife wanted to kill her and her baby very badly. She thought she was going to be turned out of her home. My grandmother had said if she got pregnant 'before time' that she would be out on the street.

Your Jamaican Word for the day is Outadah! Meaning..Out of Order..which to your average Jamaican...means rude..not to be believed!

Let's use it shall we?

In New York,last night, a woman opened her door to a supposedly good Samaritan who was returning items that she had reported stolen last week after a break in at her apartment. When he entered her apartment he put a knife to her throat and made her perform sex acts on him. After they were finished, he told her he was the same guy who had robbed her last week. Then bounced.

I spent a lot of time looking up ticket prices for my mom online these last couple of days finally deciding to get them from Cheap Air which is much cheaper than Priceline and those other guys. She's not exactly going for pleasure but rather to support my pastor who is going to support a church member that has recently lost her mother. Still I want to go home!

Here is Part 1 as before I'm citing things from Names of God by Nathan Stone and from Names of God L.Dauphin but I don't use that alot because he's often off a little.

3. El Shaddai

Looking at this name the full meaning to the best of my reckoning is, a powerful God, able to do violence to the laws of nature or the ordinary course of nature. One who compels nature to do what is contrary to itself. Mighty to nourish, supply, satisfy, one who sheds forth and pours out sustenance and blessing. All sufficent and self-sufficent. Nourishes and sustains life. Power of and shedder forth of blessings. The All Bountiful One. All bountiful in the fullness and fruitfullness He imparts to all who trust him and wait patiently on Him. The one who fills and makes fruitful. The power out of judgments and the Mighty Promiser and Giver of Life

What is it about crying out Abba..that just makes my day? God is my Ishi..my husband...oh the names of God are great...and they give his character..In my personal quiet time I'm looking at the names of God and their meanings...

1.Elohim

The plural of El or powerful God..and indicative of the Godhead. It proves that there is no finite word that fully captures the awesomness that is God..it also symbolizes covenantship. When it was used in the beginning...In Genesis the Elohim of God moved above the waters...creation itself is covenanted by Elohim for its redemption and perpetuation..in all its meaning for me at least boils down to a revelation of a covenanting, creative, governing, omnipotent God.
