Sometimes our lives can be unexpectedly interrupted, interruptions come in many forms.  Listen as my guest Alberta Lane talks to us about her life interruption and how she's moving forward in the midst of her life interruption.

Are you that person who overthinks almost everything?  Do you find that overthinking hinders you from moving forward?  Me too, so today we're talking with Shavawn Ragsdale and she's sharing how she is overcoming the urge to Overthink. 

We have probably all had those moments when we just didn't get it.  We couldn't understand why things didn't turn out the way we expected.  In this episode I want to encourage you that even when you don't understand, God is God and "God Alone".

Scriptures used in this episode:

2 Corinthians 1:3    1 Peter 5:10    Colossians 3:11     Isaiah 55:8-9

Names of God:

Jehovah Rapha  (Exodus 15:26)   Jehovah-Shalom (Judges 6:24)   Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6)   Jehovah-Jireh (Genesis 22:8)

Jehovah-Elyon ( Psalms 7:17)  Jehovah-Shammah (Ezekiel 48:35)  All and All (Colossians 3:11)   Hope of Glory (Colossians 1:27)

"I Am" (John 8:58)

There will not always be someone to pat us on the back, or encourage us to push forward or even tell us everything will be alright.  In this episode I want to encourage you to "encourage yourself" in those times when there's no one around.  I'm giving you four ways to encourage yourself, instead of waiting for people to affirm you.

This is a season you will not want to miss.  Our theme is "A Better Me" plus bonus episodes of "Grace Stories".  The first episode drops on August 12th.

Friends let us rest in the Lord while we’re waiting for Him to set things in order for us. Let us rest in the fact that whatever God has told us we will do, we will do it in His timing.   You, like me have seen God come through time and time again. We may have had to wait but many times we have tasted and seen that the Lord is good.

Let us not be anxious but wait patiently for Him!

Psalm 37:7

Our ancestors paid a mighty high price for us to be where we are today. Further along than we were but far enough away from where we want to be.  We have a rich culture and heritage and it's our responsibility to teach it to our children.  Freedom came for the African American in 1863 with the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation but was delayed until 1865 for Texans when their slaveholders withheld the news that they had been emancipated.

On June 19, 2021, let's celebrate the sacrifices of our ancestors and acknowledge the accomplishments of the African American.
