<span style="font-family: Calibri;">God makes me a part of what He does. I don’t get to make the
rules. I don’t get to control it. And I don’t get to say what the timing is. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">He will not always let me in on the play-by-play. I am not
promised detailed descriptions, only that the final outcome will be for my good
and His glory. By God not giving me explanations at each turn it builds my
faith. I can go to Him in prayer asking Him to calm my anxious heart. I can ask
Him to increase my faith so I am not consumed by the questions, fears, or
doubts. It is God’s job to unfold my future. It is my job to trust and glorify
Him as He does. I will not fear for God hath willed His truth to triumph
through me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">God means what He says. What He says goes. His powerful Word
is sharper than a surgeon’s scalpel, cutting through everything, cutting
through doubt cutting through every evil defense, laying us open to listen and
obey. Nothing and no one is impervious to God’s Word. We can’t get away from
it—no matter what.- Hebrews 4:12</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">From this time forward I believe what GOD says and I doubt my doubts. <span style="color: #333333;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I continue earnestly in prayer being vigilant in it with
thanksgiving. I pray that God would open to me a door. I have surely overcome
doubt. I have placed my faith in the WORD of GOD. I depend on that more sure
word of prophecy. I don’t allow my 5 sense to dominate my thinking. I am blessed
as I believe without seeing. There is a greater anointing on believing THE WORD
than believing signs and wonders. God PROMISED ME He told me to Fear not for I
am with you be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you yes I will
help you I will uphold you with my righteous right hand- Isaiah 41:10<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">For from me the WORD of the LORD
has sounded forth. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #333333;">Faith cometh by hearing and
hearing by the WORD of GOD.-Rm 10:17</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Until the time that His WORD came to pass The WORD of The
LORD tested him.- Ps 105:19<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">But He knows the way that I take when He has tried me I
shall come forth as gold-1 Peter 1:3-5<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Lord is trustworthy in all He promises and faithful in
all He does. Ps 145:13<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For with God nothing will be impossible. Behold the
maidservant of The LORD Let it be to me according to Your WORD. There is a
blessing in believing the fulfillment of God’s WORD. God says Blessed is she
who believed for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told
her from the LORD.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">LORD make me gentle just as a nursing mother that cherishes
her own children. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I keep my house clean and my husband happy. I am a joyful
mother of children. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For I will look favorably and make you fruitful multiply you
and form my covenant with you- Lev26:9<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For your shame you shall have double and for confusion they
shall rejoice in their portion therefore in their land they shall possess the
double everlasting joy shall be unto them- Is 61:7<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Shall I bring to the birth and not cause to bring forth?
Saith the LORD shall I cause to bring forth and shut the womb? Saith thy GOD.
Is 66:9<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Before she travailed she brought forth before her pain came
she was delivered of a man child –Is 66:7<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I need a miracle a supernatural intervention from GOD I
realize that GOD has a miracle for me. God is in complete control of
childbirth. I will now change my words to agree with what the BIBLE- God’s WORD
has said. I will make my words agree with His WORD. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I have faith in God’s WORD to bring to pass what man has
declared impossible.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have taken God’s
WORD and changed my circumstances through faith and prayer. My prayers will
change things. I have made up in my mind and determined in my heart that I will
pray. I know GOD will hear and answer my prayer because it is His will.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">God said I would above all things that you would prosper and be in good health. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">This is a simple truth God will hear my prayers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I pray I will go into
labor on my own w/o the assistance of medical induction tactics. I pray I will
go into labor at the fullness of time. The right time. God's time. I pray I will be near my family so that they
can help me when I go into labor. I pray my family be present at the birth of my child. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I pray my labor and delivery will be short, very quick, and
painless. I pray I will not have a knife used on my body.- No incisions on my
vagina or uterus. I pray I can pull my baby from my vagina and lay my baby on
my chest. I pray my baby will not be afraid. I pray my baby will hear God’s
voice. I pray my baby will be whole, healthy and strong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I will use God’s WORD. I will stand on His WORD. I will have
this baby supernaturally without pain. This will be a testimony to the POWER of
the Living GOD. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I acknowledge God’s SUPERNATURAL perpetual deliverance from
burping, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, fear, doubt, anxiety, nausea,
depression, anger, and fits of rage. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I pray my cervix, uterus, vagina, and perineum will
stretch without swelling, tear, rupture, excessive bleeding, or infection. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
No weapon formed against me will prosper. God is in control.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my
presence, which have placed the sand <i>for</i> the bound of the sea by a
perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss
themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass
over it?-Jeremiah 5:22<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should
not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the
earth:-Prov8:29<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they
turn not again to cover the earth. At thy rebuke they fled at the voice of thy
thunder they hasted away- Ps 104:9,7<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">God’s WORD will
overcome, alter, and change all circumstances, and complications. His WORD
makes things better. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I will have this baby without fear, pain, complications, or
problems.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I refuse to allow self, Satan or the world to steal these
truths from me, I will continuously make words agree with God’s WORD. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Just as sure as my heel was bruised God shall crush Satan
under my feet. Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law He was made a
curse for me. Surely He hath borne my griefs and carried my sorrows. He was
wounded for my transgressions He has bruised for my iniquities the chastisement
of my peace was upon him and with His stripes I am healed. – Is 53:4-5<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Jesus bore my pain, fear, doubt, anxiety, sorrow, suffering,
all complications, short comings, and grief. He has received the curse for my sin. I am free because the Son has set me free. I am free indeed.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I live in the region of Goshen and I am near God. My husband and all our children, grandchildren, flocks,
herds, and all I have. –Gen 45:10<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I have possessions and grow and multiply exceedingly. I live
in the best part of the land. God deals differently with the land of Goshen. NO
SWARMS of flies. No hail. So that I will know that the LORD is in this land. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I believe in God. I too receive the beauty of His ancient covenant with Israel. I am a Hebrew(Faithful) woman. I am not as the Egyptian (Faithless) women. I am
more vigorous and have my babies so quickly that the medical staff glorifies GOD. This type of quick safe delivery Honors GOD! Because the Hebrew
women bear their baby quickly. Even the midwives were blessed. All involved
were blessed. Yes God dealt well with the midwives and the people! They
multiplied and grew very powerful and strong. And it came to pass that because
they feared GOD He provided them with houses. God will provide my family with a
house. (God blessed us with a house in 2016 as well as our son in 2016!)</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I will have my baby fast and easily. I will be kept safe and
sound during childbirth.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I will not confer with flesh and blood I don’t need anyone’s
unbelief or doubt. I don’t need anyone arguing with me telling me it won’t
work. I have enough to do to plead the BLOOD over my own mind. I will not
invite any fear, unbelief, or doubt from other people. I will tell myself and
agree with GOD. I set myself in agreement with God BY speaking and hearing The
WORD. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I agree with God and I am at peace (Job 22:21)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I thank God that I have learned that even if I can’t out
think the devil I can out talk him by<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>submitting to God and imitating what God says. According to the word I
submit to God I resist the devil. I am an imitator of God. I am a beloved
daughter of God. I walk in love, peace, power, a sound mind, kindness,
gentleness, and compassionate forgiveness. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I can set myself in
agreement with God’s WORD and by this I walk with God and faith pleases Him.
God honors His Own WORD. He will bring it to pass for His own glory. I seek
Good not evil that I may live, my husband my live, and each of my children
may live and so the LORD the GOD of hosts shall be
with me as I have spoken.- Amos 5:14<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I have a sober and accurate mind. One that is centered on
the WORD of GOD. I am one of God’s sheep. I hear God’s voice and I follow Him.
I know His voice. And I will by no means follow a stranger. But I will flee
from strangers because I do not know the voice of strangers. I will also resist negative thoughts because God's thoughts are thoughts of peace. I agree in my mind with God's thoughts of peace towards me. I do know God’s
voice. I follow His voice because I want to. It is my God given free will
decision to respond to the love of God by following His voice. So help me God I
will follow until my time to rest has come. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I continually resist circumstances that God never intended
for me to accept or tolerate. Jesus intends for me to believe in what He said
in spite of circumstances. I am a descendant of Abraham and contrary to hope,
in hope I believe. I will not be weak in faith. I will not consider my own
body or skills. Just like God’s friend Abraham I also will not waver at the promise of
God through unbelief but I am strengthened in faith giving glory to God and I
am fully convinced that what He promised He is able to perform in my life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">God said He will rebuke the devourer for my sakes and he
shall not destroy the fruits of my ground neither shall my vine cast her fruit
before the time in the field saith the LORD of hosts.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Therefore I also rebuke, resist, and cast down car and
equipment breakdowns, sickness, premature death, adultery, pornography, evil
dreams/night terrors/nightmares/ fearful thoughts/nervousness, anger, fits of
rage, restlessness, unemployment, accidents, liabilities, catastrophes, bad
weather, prejudice and hate driven actions, negative economic conditions in my finances, failure of
dreams, lawsuits, broken contracts, harm to my seed,
harm to fruit of my womb, or harm to my children. God's positive holy plans for me and my family will come to pass.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">No weapon that is formed against me shall prosper; and every
tongue <i>that</i> rises against me in judgment I shall condemn. This <i>is</i>
the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and my righteousness <i>is</i> of
Jesus, saith the LORD.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We have light, gladness, JOY, and honor. God Always causes
us to triumph. THat means God makes us win!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Holy Virgin Daughters. A holy happy marriage. A faithful husband. A
supernatural birth experience in-line with God’s perfect will for me. I thank
God for peaceful children that sleep through the night in undisturbed peace and
rest. A preacher man son that adores God. Freedom from all my fears. Yes I

But here....I deeply love you<br />
Here.. you occupy my safe zone<br />
When I think of you<br />
No matter where we are<br />
I am never alone<br />
God dissolve my barriers<br />
I need to love past my fear, insecurity, and emotion<br />
I'm accustomed to my peacock display of strength<br />
Inept in the totality of love's purest surrender<br />
In your absence my soul cries<br />
Today wasn't busy enough for me to endure the agony<br />
I. miss. you.<br />
A tinted bubble for our hearts to mingle<br />
To giggle and revel in soul mate's harmony<br />
Thankful He declared you to be mine<br />
Ordained me to be forever yours<br />
Our eternal getaway is His current construction project<br />
My soul loves Jesus<br />
And through that He gave me you<br />

I cant hardly understand how time is going so quickly. I think it has a lot to do with how much I find my self doing from day to day. Gabby is now a toddler and keeping up with her engrosses my whole day! I think I want to freeze time for awhile so I can enjoy the fleeting moments of her babyhood! Well the only real resolutions I have involve completing what I started. I want this year to be a year that I wrap up all the loose ends that I am always going to tie "tomorrow".<div><br /></div><div>Retaking the MCAT</div><div>Organizing all my wedding cards</div><div>Categorizing all my cards from my sweetie</div><div>Redefining my relationship with God </div><div>Becoming serious about being a servant </div><div>Being more kind and loving to the people I cherish </div><div><br /></div><div>I have literally made a list already. Some of the things are a bit personal, too personal to post. But I think that sums up the big picture. If I summarized 2011 I would definitely call it a year that God has been developing some serious patience in my life. It hit me like a ton of bricks just yesterday how far I have to go, but also how far He has brought me. I hope to continue to strive and press toward the mark, the high calling of God, for which I exist.</div><div><br /></div><div>One of the biggest epiphanies this year has been this- God is striving to help us achieve all the plans He has for us. Along the way I have acquired some serious scars. But looking at those scars proves His strength. I have decided to claim His strength and not magnify my weakness. This is going to change not only my perspective, but change my life. So good afternoon 2012 and good night 2011! </div><div><br /></div><div>Happy New Year!</div><div><br /></div>Cocoa_Pinkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11449548597300053411noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874965272192926967.post-12417898001340725082011-12-08T10:03:00.003-06:002011-12-08T10:21:19.224-06:00Burnished Gold<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkw77Kt0yVMCwYbXGPMLKSJL4zwy2ed3gQqvnaITxvgdaV6euRTm29bVXg2ZGHpsGPI7a1H6VFwM6wH_SreVnTi-cSQrSItr8D09CrvIIZDSzdzGkhtxqxuZN6ooBL0oN8dkXUUjYaotQ/s1600/m470654_99189999159_BurnishedGold_445x319.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkw77Kt0yVMCwYbXGPMLKSJL4zwy2ed3gQqvnaITxvgdaV6euRTm29bVXg2ZGHpsGPI7a1H6VFwM6wH_SreVnTi-cSQrSItr8D09CrvIIZDSzdzGkhtxqxuZN6ooBL0oN8dkXUUjYaotQ/s320/m470654_99189999159_BurnishedGold_445x319.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683793128897410418" /></a><div>Still in awe of YOU!

Can't wait to be there!!</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; font-family:Times;font-size:small;"><p>Far above the city, upon a foundation of burnished gold, is a throne, high and lifted up. Upon this throne sits the Son of God, and around Him are the subjects of His kingdom. The power and majesty of Christ no language can describe, no pen portray. The glory of the Eternal Father is enshrouding His Son. The brightness of His presence fills the city of God and flows out beyond the gates, flooding the whole earth with its radiance. </p><p> Nearest the throne are those who were once zealous in the cause of Satan, but who, plucked as brands from the burning, have followed their Saviour with deep, intense devotion. Next are those who perfected Christian characters in the midst of falsehood and infidelity, those who honored the law of God when the Christian world declared it void, and the millions of all ages who were martyred for their faith. And beyond is the "great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, . . . before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands." Their warfare is ended, their victory won. They have run the race and reached the prize. . . . </p><p> In the presence of the assembled inhabitants of earth and heaven the final coronation of the Son of God takes place.- <a href="http://www.whiteestate.org/devotional/mlt/12_08.asp">My life today pg.351</a></p></span></div>Cocoa_Pinkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11449548597300053411noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874965272192926967.post-25118407577954841082011-11-29T15:51:00.004-06:002011-12-04T19:58:13.997-06:00Gold<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqAO2mN4czJB7M_0CVBFm27x84Sn_si6z00zSoyW63gS_CU50UpL2nM4ojorVyUo8fDzaO7OHch66mQcpKOvlBnQUy4KvXhBvQ9e1A6nVST64dQTz8F_lMCSreA03yVEroRrUcRDL6LuA/s1600/gold1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqAO2mN4czJB7M_0CVBFm27x84Sn_si6z00zSoyW63gS_CU50UpL2nM4ojorVyUo8fDzaO7OHch66mQcpKOvlBnQUy4KvXhBvQ9e1A6nVST64dQTz8F_lMCSreA03yVEroRrUcRDL6LuA/s320/gold1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5682448943405904338" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Gold is very beautiful! God obviously thinks so as well, because his home (heaven) has streets that are lined with it. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:100%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">In Revelation 21:21 it says, T</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span">he twelve gates <i>were</i> twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl.

He states this clearly in Malachi 3:3: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Charis SIL', charis, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "> He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, And purge them as gold and silver, That they may offer to the LORD<br />An offering in righteousness.</span><br /></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:georgia;color:#333333;" ><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ">God is trying me in the fire just as gold is tried in the fire. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: georgia; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "> The refiner knows the exact temperature to purify the gold. God knows the exact set of circumstances to orchestrate my permanent refinement. The intense heat of refinement will never destroy me! I know many of you have heard this analogy before, but I ask you to meditate on this promise in a new light! God values us infinitely more than the refiner values his gold. In John 6:51 Jesus tells us, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ">I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. God dedicated His life to giving us eternal life. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ">That means that we are very precious to him, our life cost Him His life... God will purify this earth and all sin, suffering, and sorrow will be consumed. God promises in Malachi 4:1, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-size:medium;">“Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire,” says the LORD Almighty. “Not a root or a branch will be left to them. We are being purified now so that we will be pure and holy and able to abide with God in His holy habitation. In Amos 4:11 God reminds us,</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "> "you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning". God has invested in the refiner's business to purify all of His children. His life covers our life with holiness, perfection, beauty and infinite value.

And today I thought wow I might as well delete my blog I never write here anymore! But today I realized I need to write about all my vegan baking adventures!! My sweet baby girl is allergic to several things- milk, eggs, peanuts, tomatoes, soy, pineapples, cashews, and chicken... She is 13 months and baby food no longer fills her up. So I have been on an mission to figure out what to bake for my sweet little angel. Along the way I have had a lot of fun, and she seems to enjoy everything I have made so far:<div><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#663300;">Oatmeal waffles</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#6600cc;">Jam Swirled Pancakes</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#009900;">Zucchini Muffins</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#996633;">Vanilla Cupcakes</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#009900;">and... </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000099;">Blueberry Muffins</span></div><div><br /></div><div>Today I just felt like <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000099;">blueberry muffins</span> soooo I checked out Baking Illustrated from the local library and decided to make some. They were absolutely AMAZING! Gabby kept on pointing to them and crying and I felt really bad soo I did a quick search on the internet and found some vegan <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000099;">blueberry muffins</span>! I halved the recipe to make 6 adorable little <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000099;">muffins</span>. She is in LOVE. As we speak she is finishing off one whole <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000099;">muffin</span>! </div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://www.food.com/recipe/vegan-blueberry-muffins-123809/photo">Source</a> </div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 22px;

I immediately began to think about my 2010 resolutions. I couldn't remember so I looked at the "<a href="http://cocoapink.blogspot.com/2010/01/hello-2010.html">2010 New Year's Post</a>"<br /><br />I didn't really have any!! I just reflected on the goodness of GOD and realized how much I have been blessed! I have decided that resolutions are a good way to plan ahead but as my mom and I were discussing its best to actually surrender your life to Jesus everyday and each moment ask Him "How can I best serve You". By doing this you can be sure that you will move forward into the person that God would have you be.<br /><br />I just Praise Him for his Unfailing Love and I know that in 2011 I will continue to get closer to my Savior.<br /><br />MY BIGGEST BLESSING from 2010 is the Addition of<br />My beautiful daughter Gabby!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjQi4foxXLx6WD4hl4NL4u5f5P00YN7EKX_a49CnSAdSNrYD42fT5tW6pnUxdO4hq9trk2jpD8NOv9KFLPWwPKrqnpBM1g2D9cEpzXTnRIkdtE7JtKRzjV53b3nIM9TSccR45vYYsUp1A/s1600/avand3.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558442387737911554" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjQi4foxXLx6WD4hl4NL4u5f5P00YN7EKX_a49CnSAdSNrYD42fT5tW6pnUxdO4hq9trk2jpD8NOv9KFLPWwPKrqnpBM1g2D9cEpzXTnRIkdtE7JtKRzjV53b3nIM9TSccR45vYYsUp1A/s400/avand3.JPG" border="0" /></a> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558443021148893458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9evVtG7gwlNbJ5Yrd7q3pwjHmeD0_UCM8UpNm6Eu8HaaGqgfrWrQBYDQNRSWByAQfd30ROb-yVM-YcWFv7s9iompt8aZHFlMkRC0wz_JfJcoJMSzPIt-0Ei1kDujMxnOc7CbHhqxOu5E/s400/smiledown.JPG" border="0" /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7G2QNr1t7sW9TgrAzrqj63eb2XszRzkJPnc4dDftYIhj2UtdqNxNgEVSGT7YSfi-P5MbDg-WTBk5WTo-sWBfvuJjbZ2mkPCBEOoL6YLC5hEKTge9AVCdtYsN7DKgeK4KzAYljgeFsmmc/s1600/pinkshirt.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558442638819466162" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7G2QNr1t7sW9TgrAzrqj63eb2XszRzkJPnc4dDftYIhj2UtdqNxNgEVSGT7YSfi-P5MbDg-WTBk5WTo-sWBfvuJjbZ2mkPCBEOoL6YLC5hEKTge9AVCdtYsN7DKgeK4KzAYljgeFsmmc/s400/pinkshirt.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit3DIjvYS39d7OIR-8OVK0AFDnflXmhU9YNPdKPzfwcWvHwnUvWv_Khx-HDdQ95JZUrqx-ufuKjqO6w1wmLzpQ-rnxeoaiAqElK236Nw-Vksi2FC3I7KCSe-tOD6Gz4ntD28wGTREwhEE/s1600/raw0091.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558443567482924258" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 267px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit3DIjvYS39d7OIR-8OVK0AFDnflXmhU9YNPdKPzfwcWvHwnUvWv_Khx-HDdQ95JZUrqx-ufuKjqO6w1wmLzpQ-rnxeoaiAqElK236Nw-Vksi2FC3I7KCSe-tOD6Gz4ntD28wGTREwhEE/s400/raw0091.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558439857195352434" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbwUmlj-nGOTgjBVig1a77Unws92UGRz4oyYS_PUPZ-f2y40P48i7OSaDWUyVqbTIdagXTS4EGeiD8n3ZdvsSIcXO1WMfg8F6DWknBC3XiPwTWMRHC7i9Mwu5vYuoxxt_Ga6RC8tr7-0k/s400/mommyandgabby.jpg" border="0" />So as we look to make it through 2011 I do believe that it is very important to remember that God truly does have plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. The text that has really stood out to me as an encouragement for this new year is 2 Chronicles 16:9<br /><br /><span style="color:#990000;">"For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him."</span><br /><br />This year my prayer is for God to grant me Grace through His Holy Spirit and Faith in Jesus to live the following :<br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"><strong>Belief in God</strong></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"><strong>Trust in God </strong></span></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#cc0000;"><span style="font-size:130%;">Loyalty to God</span> </span></strong></div><br /><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#cc0000;"></span></strong></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#cc6600;">I will pray the same for you.
