God Makes the Impossible, Possible

I have seen God work in my family’s life in many unique ways. As we attended our daughter Monique’s great wedding this past weekend-the wedding that we have planned for so long, we knew that our prayers will be answered. We had no idea that God would give us much more than we asked for. Our daughter Jo-An was part of the wedding party. We didn’t think she could handle walking …

Spend Time with Your Family

For the past few months I have been busy with my family. Being involved in the lives of the people to whom God has entrusted to us to love and to enjoy, is a tremendous responsibility, one we should not ignore or forget. Whether you are a Pastor, an Evangelist, a teacher, a Principal, a stay at home parent, a business owner, an employee or a student, let us remember our …

Looking Forward to a Time of Refreshing

On April 18, 2013, citizens of Boston as with other years felt the excitement and the thrill as they took their places next to one another in the race to prove who had the best time. The Marathon gives others who are physically handicapped opportunities to run this race as well. It is a time when Boston and all who come from different countries come together in unity and in …

Christ’s Resurrection and its Significance for our Lives

The purpose of this article is to affirm that Jesus Christ is alive. I want to go a step further and discuss, what I believe, is the significance of his resurrection. His resurrection is significant in that we are accepted into God’s family; we understand that Jesus intercedes on our behalf before the Father; and we can have hope and live in newness of life. We are …

Do Not Procrastinate; Fulfill Your Dream

In my previous post, I discussed how my husband and I were in a car accident, how we accidentally came off the highway and landed on a guard-rail. As a result of this accident, I have gone through moments of insecurity, experiencing fear of driving at night, fear driving a rental car and my replacement car. I have not felt the same. I have also had to pray and remember that God …

Praying at the Right Moment

The teacher in the Newtown, Connecticut School shooting must have prayed at the very moment and God gave her the insight to hide all her students in the closet and face the killer herself. She died in that tragedy but saved all the children in her classroom. Have you ever prayed at the right moment only to find that God had answered your prayer and saved you or someone else …

Let Us Lift Up Jesus

The advent season is a time when we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and share the love of Jesus with our family and friends: by visiting them, partaking in meals together and through gift-giving. Some of us make charitable contributions, feed the hungry or help in other ways. Others attend church services or go to different venues to listen to musical renditions such as …

Be Thankful for the Good Things

These past two weeks were hectic for me. My daughter and I had been looking around for a venue to host her wedding reception. I had gone to a grand opening celebration ceremony of a minister friend of mine who had moved to a new location. I was volunteering for an organization for five hours this week and was offered a free ticket to attend their conference. On Friday, one of …

Our Security is in God

When I was a little girl and living in the Island of Trinidad and Tobago, I loved to watch ducklings being born. The mother duck positioned herself right under our house so she would not be distracted. Picking at the egg-shells little by little until they had enough room to leave, the ducklings, with their waxed coating, left their darkly stained shells and entered the real …

All Things Work Together for Good to Those Who Love God

When we review what is taking place in our lives, we can't help but respond with a sigh of disappointment when things are not going our way. We must remember that God is in control of our lives and what seems difficult and hard to bear is really working for our good. My life issues that I faced allowed me to see that first-hand. I was the type of person that had everything …

Deciding on Home-Care or Day-Care for Your Child

Making a decision regarding home-care or day-care is a life-long decision which will impact you and your child. I am writing this article from my own personal experiences and not from a psychological view point. I realize that every situation is different. A child may be raised by two parents or by one parent. A parent may be single, divorced, separated, and may be male or …
