MY PURPOSE IS TODAY...

 ~ MY PURPOSE IS TODAY, TOMORROW & EVERY DAY AFTER ~

Twenty Four Years & Counting...

So, today marks 24 years of Marriage for me and the hubby - WOW, only God could pull this off, lol.  I've heard many testimonies about being Married 30yrs, 50yrs and more - now, that's what you call being committed to one person for life, that's that til death do us part thing, I want to be just like them (in years) when I grow up, lol...

The divorce rate is so high and especially in the Body of Christ, so it makes me happy to hear that a Marriage is still going strong - NOT THAT THERE AREN'T PROBLEMS, ARGUMENTS, DISAGREEMENTS, ETC. yes, those will definitely come but when you've made up your mind to be in it for the long haul, you're able to work out the glitches, the wrinkles & holes, nothing God can't fix.  If you go into a Marriage expecting it to be perfect, expecting your significant other to be perfect, you have already failed because there are no perfect people and Marriage is only as perfect as you make it...

Any who, I hope you all have had a truly blessed day thus far, I sure have, although it would have been better if the hubby was home from work but not too much longer.  Continue to enjoy your day & the rest of your week...

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT...

The Journey Continues...

Happy Monday everyone, today has been a beautiful one here in the Springs - not too hot & not too cold, now tomorrow may be a horse of a different color but time will tell, lol...

Today's post is an update of my battle with Fibromyalgia - most days are painful, energy zapped ones but I'm learning to cope.  I only take the meds when the pain is unbearable simply because I like having control of my actions and my meds give me that googly feeling or shall I say that out of body experience, lol...

It's hard to get through my daily exercise but never the less I get through them - YAY!  I often tell myself, "I may have Fibromyalgia BUT it DON'T HAVE ME!", it's just passing through and I'm determined to hold on until my change come, until my healing manifest.  I'm so thankful to my Heavenly Father because in the midst of what I must deal with, HE still gives me the strength to accomplish, achieve and acquire on a daily basis...

I've noticed a few things that causes my Fibro flare ups (body pain, headaches, nauseous, etc), (1) Cold, rainy weather, (2) Stress & (3) other pain - while they may be others personally for me, these I've come to realize and try to keep them under control as much as possible...

Surviving one day at a time, yep, that's me and I'm grateful to God for it.  I also thank God that I still LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my life and wouldn't change anything because I realize that His divine plan for my life IS PERFECT AT ALL TIMES & IN ALL THINGS...

Enjoy the rest of your week as you make full proof of who God has called/chosen you to be...

The Real Wonder Woman...

As a child one of my favorite shows was "Wonder Woman" - It totally amazed me how in the time of trouble she would go from one state to the next, from normal to supernatural, I'm sure I'm not the only one that was amazed by this transformation, lol.  Wonder Woman knew exactly what to do in the time of trouble and in the time of need, but even with all her super powers she still had weaknesses and limitations...

If you think about it Ladies, we become our strongest during our weakest moments, even when we don't realize it.  One thing I've realized is that, the Character of "Wonder Woman" is fictional and that WOMEN of PRAYER and WOMEN of the WORD are indeed THE REAL WONDER WOMAN.  There is nothing more powerful than a Woman that know the Word of God and know how to get a prayer through, a Woman of Faith - YOU TALK ABOUT SUPERNATURAL POWER (I got happy right there, hallelujah), there is no power like HolyGhost power, the power of God!...

Yes we have weaknesses and yes we have limitations but we also have something that the fictional character, "Wonder Woman" didn't have AND that's GOD, a God that has our back, a God that dwells on the inside, a God that has given us the power to defeat every enemy and every foe - YES, WE ARE THE REAL "WONDER WOMAN".  The world is often wondering how we made over, how we accomplished, how we achieved, how, how, how, well, I'm glad they asked; we made it through Prayer, Faith and the Word of God...

When trouble comes, and the enemy presents himself, just begin to SPIN INTO YOUR WONDER WOMAN STATE, ATTACK HIM WITH THE WORD of GOD & SLAP HIM WITH SOME PRAYER, lol.  I'm excited right about now because this has blessed me and I pray it blesses you - ALLLLLLL these many years of being an adult, I'm thinking that "Wonder Woman" was only a fictional character and now I realize she is oh so real - yes, she's real, just look in the mirror, you/me are indeed A WONDER of a WOMAN, through prayer and Gods Word, He keep folk wondering, WHY? and HOW?

I'm done, lol but ladies, never underestimate the power that God have placed on the inside of you and never ever let others belittle your anointing for you are a real "Wonder Woman"...

Smiling Through the Pain...

Happy Monday everyone, hope your day has been a magnificently good one so far.  Thank God for a new week and I figure if I start strong, I will also end strong (we will see, lol).  Today has been a great one so far and I anticipate the rest of this day & week to be like wise...

Those of you that keep up with my blog and or follow me on Face Book, may know that I was diagnosed with "Fibromyalgia" some months ago - Fibro what?  Yeah, my thoughts exactly, lol.  Decided to blog a little about my current state, not that you care, although I'M SO SURE YOU DO (smile).  To be honest, I'm in pain for the most part every day, some days from head to toe and other days the pain jumps from place to place but needless to say - I'm always in pain :-(  BUT guess what?  Although I hurt almost constant, I'm learning to "SMILE" through the pain.  I realize that in spite of it all I still have more to smile about than frown.  The above pic describes my post sort of, lol - it's like being in a serious pillow fight, being hit left and right, up and down, over the head but learning to smile through it (although the pain is worse than being hit with a pillow)...

I've noticed that I'm also developing other little symptoms like, fatigue, dizziness, nauseousness, etc but I know by HIS/JESUS STRIPES I AM HEALED.  I'm also thankful for my hubby and kids for their support during this season in my life.  They know that I have very, very, very low tolerance for pain and so when I'm overwhelmed they have no problem taking up my slack, this too keeps a smile on my face...

There you have it, a mini update in the life of "Forever Melissa" - well, everyone, enjoy the rest of your week and remember, WITH GOD YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH & ACHIEVE ANYTHING YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO & HE/GOD WILL KEEP A SMILE ON YOUR FACE, NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCE...
