Wow, it has been 2 years since I last posted on this blog! I promise I won't let it go that long again...will update at lease once a month. But I have gone back and looked at some of these previous posts, this is some good stuff God. (He is the writer, not me).
But in these 2 years I have been getting closer and closer to God, and being the kingdom conduit He has prepared me to be. The book Volume III - Renewal of the Mind! was released in 2014, and I am currently working on Volume IV - Kingdom Ready, Thy Kingdom Come, so you can expect to hear many "kingdom nuggets" coming your way.
I just want to share a nugget that I heard from Aaron Lindsey this morning, "we don't GO to higher levels in God, we GROW to higher levels/dimensions and levels in Him" these 2 years of silence were a growing season of elevation that felt like anything other than that! lol.
Our goal for growth this year should be to grow in purity of heart - when you get a moment, go to the regular dictionary and look at the meaning of "purity" - this is what God is seeking, the pure in heart (see Matthew 5:8).
Be encouraged to GROW on...Thy Kingdom Come.
Love you,

Share & Share alike...
I am sooooooooo grateful to have people that actually look to me to assist with the God given call on their lives. It is beyond humbling, that the Lord would choose me - lil ole me - knowing from whence I came... wow God! But there are people in my life that He allows me to pour in - they sit here like empty sponges that just want to know how to do what He has allowed me to do! Wow! When I feel like nobody cares, sees, or will ever know - He has a BEAu-ti-FULL young lady like Taneka or Evette or JoAnn or Chyrstal or my daugther (what!!!) or someone else that has been watching me, without me knowing, and ask how to do what they saw me do! Overwhelming - in a good way! Thank you Lord.
My advise to those that have been in this race - share your testimony - your story - your "how to's" - with the next generation of thirsty people. Is your cup running over? Then share & share alike...

Purpose is powerFULL!!!
Purpose is powerFULL!!!
A lot of people want to know their life purpose… “What was I created for? Or to do?” One thing to keep in mind is Romans 8:28 NLT:
And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
So as we grow in our love for God, and in our understanding of the characteristics of God’s love, we will better understand how “all things work together for good” – the good, the bad, and the ugly can all work together for good.
Here is an acronym that I am seeing this morning (I didn’t get this out of a book, it was ringing in my head, so I wrote it down):
P.U.R.P.O.S.E.
P – passionate
U – unified
R – revived
P – patient
O – offensive
S – salvation
E – eternity – empowered
It is when we become passionate about our love relationship with God, unified with Him, empowered by Him, that we receive the perpetual reviving to produce patience in all that we endure. We are to be offensive against the enemy and the forces of darkness, yet not be an offense to the brotherhood of believers. With all of this said, we can share salvation with non-believers and strengthen fellow believers as we enlarge those that will make it to eternity in the love of God…
Be blessed in 2012, choose to live life on P.U.R.P.O.S.E.

A Portion...
Some may be wondering where the name of the ministry came from?
A Portion Ministries
Let me give a quick history and share this portion of my testimony (Rev 12:11).
The theme scripture for "A Portion" is Proverbs 31:15 She also rises while it is yet night, and provides food for her household, and a portion for her maidservants.
Back in 1999 I used to get up early in the morning with a hunger to know God, not church or religion, but God. This was before the internet was so accessible, so I would spread my books out on my kitchen table and diligently seek to know God and His word. On the flip side, to be able to keep such a busy schedule, I would cook dinner in the morning while there in the kitchen. It was about a year later when one of the people I studied with was sitting there and saw this concept: that since I get up in the morning digging out the truths in the word of God and sharing with them, this would be a good ministry name. I received a witness within my spirit that this was to be the name of what He was empowering me to do. Now 9 years later, it is truly making sense.

Be encouraged...
I once had a friend that became blind. He was living wild on the world's side and got caught up in someplace he knew he should not have been. At first he went through depression and suicidal thoughts wondering why he was allowed to live in complete darkness. I'm not sure who introduced him to the Light of the world, but his testimony is "I had to lose my sight to gain my sight". What is our excuse? We have our sight, hearing, activity of our limbs, yet we have not sight? Let this not be our testimony... God wants to customize our testimony. We have all been through some situations, not all from sin, but just life occurring, and the Lord delivered us mightily. Lets not give the credit to anyone else...
As I was listening to Pastor C's prayer call this morning about giving birth spiritually and naturally, I had this same testimony of my friend, I had to lose my natural womb to truly be spiritually pregnant. I gave natural birth only twice, but the spiritual birthings are innumerable - especially since that surgery 2 years ago this month.
Take a moment and recount all the things that you had to lose to gain the true purposes of God for your life? The devil meant it for evil, to take you out - but God!!!! He has the ability to take the mess and transform it into a Message of hope, to take the trials and test of life and transform it into great Testimonies of His Life.
As my dear friend and sister in Christ Joann found out some 20 years later - the devil had lied to her and told her God was trying to kill her, when really it was the devil doing that - God was protecting her and sustaining her all along. So if you must listen to the lies of the enemy, just believe the opposite of what he is saying, because the opposite of a lie is the truth - and it is the truth of the word of God that brings freedom & liberty.
Each human being with breath in the body still is Created2Produce! No matter who you are, or where you've been, or what you have done - the love of God is for you, not against you (See Romans 8:35-39). Be blessed!

True Love
So much on my mind right now about love... Kem has a song titled "true love" - and I like the hook (which happens to be a biblical principle) "you will reap, what you sow, so be true wherever you go. You will have what you say, thats the way that true love is made"
So to experience true love, we need to watch what is in our heart and coming out of our mouth. We can frame our world by the words that come out of our mouth - they have creative power! So, are your words framing the loving environment you seek? If not, do a heart check and be mindful of what you are sowing...because you will receive a harvest of the words you speak, good or bad.
On this day that society celebrates love, I choose to continue in who I am and that is to share love with everyone the Lord sends my way - the good, the bad, the ugly - to walk in love daily, as an epistle of the Love of God at work in a person's life. Have a blessed day and know that I love you, but more importantly, God loves you and He IS LOVE!

this was just ringing in my heart, so I had to share it...pass it on

Holiday Depression
Hello Family – I just wanted to share one of my daily devotionals. With this being the holiday season, the depression attacks come more often…but keep in mind that we celebrate the birth/ death/ resurrection of Jesus Christ 365 days per year, and we should be a giving people all year long – so we don’t get caught up into the holiday stress that the world creates. My true friends know that this is how I live year round. So have a blessed week…

December 20th - God Calling devotional:
Fight fear as you would fight a plague. Fight it in My name…Fear, even the smallest fear, is the hacking at the cords of Love that bind you to Me.
However small the impression, in time those cords will wear thin, and then one disappointment, or shock, and they snap. But for the little fears the cords of Love would have held.
Fight fear.
Depression is a state of fear. Fight that too. Fight. Fight. Depression is the impression left by fear. Fight and conquer, and oh! for Love of Me, for the sake of My tender, never-failing Love of you, fight and love and win.
My bible promise for today: Psalm 64:1 “Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.”
My thoughts: thank You Lord for continually exposing the plans/tricks of the enemy…
