Please pray for a dear friend of mine who has lupus and is in a lot of pain today. It hurts my heart that I can’t be there with her but my prayers and your prayers can accomplish much. Thanks. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet
Read MoreSaving ‘Shaneeka’
Some years ago, I was so grieved about the condition of our inner cities. And I asked the question, “How do I get ‘Shaneeka’ to change her mind?” Change her mind about her current situation. About how she rears her children. How she treats herself. I knew if I could get her to change her mind, communities and families would be completely turned around. I felt powerless.

Never mind the decent salary and company benefits…today’s employees are looking for something more. They want a warm fuzzy feeling and an ultra relaxed work environment. And it’s making my boo nuts.

Wow! Saturday night Elgin and I had the chance to minister at the Demon Crushers Candlelight and You event. It was a special evening for married couples, engaged couples and those courting. The room was beautifully decorated. Candles were lit everywhere and was the only light in the room. It was such an intimate setting. Each couple had their on cozy table. There was chance to slow dance with my boo which was absolutely wonderful. Christian recording artist Yunek sang beautifully. A couple even performed a chorographed piece to The Closer I Get To You which was really nice. We knew the setting was going to be intimate and that some of the people in attendance...
