Are you a woman entrepreneur (or aspire to be) and need help getting started?

It's been a wonderful Summer and I can't express enough
my gratitude for all of the support and words of affirmation
that I received over the course of the summer and this year
for that matter.

I've had this question asked by many women and it is simply
how do I get started? Or how do I continue even when it seems like nothing's happening?

I've been sharing about the army of empowered women that I'm building, are you ready to join the revolution?

This Thursday, October 1 marks the beginning. I'm going to share
everything I can to motivate and challenge each and everyone of you to take the leap of faith to begin living the life of abundance that
Father God designed for you. We're just about in the last quarter of the year, however, this is not the time to retreat. Power up!

Let's make Father God's dreams come true for you. Dreams alive is about His dreams for you being activated by your burning desire and re-dedication of your life to His purpose for you. In essence your dreams will ultimately manifest as you partner with God.

Join me Thursday, October 1 at 1:30 PM PST 4:30 PM EST
There will be a recorded audio replay for each registrant.

Plus discover how you can write your own empowerment-success
song for your life and participate in my upcoming session fre.e .

The Storm

This one is powerful!
My daughter shares a profound poem that will grip your
soul and yet inspire you to soar in the midst of the storm.

Be Blessed

THE STORM

The light is crystal clear
Each step I take with a little less fear
Each breath I take has a purpose
No longer in man I trust
The rain falls harder
Trying to persuade my mind
But I am used to the rain this time
Storms no longer rage
Winds no longer sway me
Like a tree planted I am
Strength I have found in thee
Not swayed by negativity
Nor doubt and unbelief

Nor the things that I see
I meditate on the unseen
My vision is clearly the substance
So I long for the storm
Practicing resistance
Perfecting my diligence
Learning to trust in him
In the eye of the storm I lay my head
Tunnel vision towards what lie ahead
Lonely nights I feel I am falling
Tears fall from my eyes
And I hear a sweet melody calling
Healing my heart’s cries
Hard to see why but I know that I know
I will find purpose in the struggle
You place me over the fire
I’ll come out as pure gold
Falling deeper in the storm
I relinquish my control and I let go
And when I surrendered to you
That’s when I started to pull through
In the eye of the storm
That’s when I found you
The tears of my heart lord my cup is full
Oh God you are faithful
I stood back and watched
As you made a way out of no way for me
Just like when you parted the Red Sea
Just like Sarah’s baby
Just like Esther you looked out for me
Though weak and weary I smiled as I took your hand
I watched the seasons change
And you led me out of the storm

Have you hugged Him lately?

One of my building blocks for empowerment includes commitment
to your spiritual authority which in my case and yours is
Father God and next for wives is their husband.

I thought this post would support the attitude we should
embrace where it concerns our Father God.

Did you remember to hug Father God today? If He cries
when we cry and laughs when we laugh then He has the
ability to be sad when we're sad. Let's lift the heart of God
with fellowship, worship and praise. It makes sense.....when
we have joy....He has joy! Although the capacity of His joy is
not decreased or increased by our emotions, He still has the ability
to receive from our expressions of joy (praise)!

Go ahead give Him a praise hug, a worship hug, a declaration of
victory hug!

Hallowed be thy name Jehovah Jireh - my provider!
Jehovah Shalom - The Lord my peace!
Jehovah-Rapha - The Lord my healer!

Yes! Yes! Listen for His applause, feel your spirit soar as you enter
into His presence. He's listening he's inhabiting your praises!

God in you = Empowerment!

Peace as written by my daughter

I'd like to share a beautiful piece with you. I was very restless on Friday, January 9 with the thoughts of peace. I wanted to write but couldn't. Well, to my surprise my daughter was birthing this piece as it showed up on Facebook January 9, 2009.
Powerful, the connection between a daughter and mother. Now enjoy.

Empowering you,

PEACE

Sometimes taken for granted
It still stands still
Like rivers in the early morning
It is ever so chill
Sometimes misunderstood
Some try hard to find the root
But it is ever so complex to do
For one cannot create it for you
It is one element that can only hold true
If the premise is set when time doth commence
If the motives for living are without blemish
And no fault before it can diminish it’s will…
That is when it will stand still
Some say it passes all understanding
Some believe it is as simple as breathing
If that were to hold true it would overtake the world
Not one soul would be fighting for
The Middle East would be sane once more
Russia would not have query or motive for war
The US would wonder what we’re fighting for
If like rivers peace ran through us
Just consumed us
And persuaded our souls to open up
Open up to the energy provided freely from the Universe
You see “peace” yeah it was free at first
But then came Adam and Eve
In Genesis 3rd chapter; sixth verse
And the invention of thieves that now exist throughout the earth
Now the most precious & expensive possession
Is peace without question
It’s the reason Lauryn Hill had to retreat to the hills
Gotta find peace of mind
The reason Left Eye left the US behind
Gotta find peace of mind
The reason Mary J. sang No More Drama
Gotta find peace of mind
And the reason America elected Obama
Gotta find peace of mind
So when you take a look around you
And things aren’t standing still
Not like rivers running through you
But like daggers that can kill
Retreat thy self to seclusion
If only for a moment to disillusion
So that all else begins to cease
That is the high price we pay for peace written by Purple © 2009 Jan 9, 2009
