Full Of It

Yesterday, I received some news and it sent me into tears. I couldn't help but cry and this morning I still am. I made phone calls, talked to my husband and then went to my neighbor's house. I couldn't hold it in because I was full of it. I am full of tears of joy. I am full tears of release. I am full of God's awe and wonder. I am full of it.

Do you know what it's like when God answers a prayer that you've had for years? There are no words but thank you. I have more tears than I do words. I won't get into all the details because it's not mines to tell but I will say this; my niece is with her father. She is in the safety of his arms. I'm proud of my brother...Godly proud. He held on and stuck it out even when he was in the thick of it. Now, because of God and him walking on water, he has FULL custody of his daughter. It was a long and very, very, very hard road. If you love your children, nieces, nephews, etc; you don't want to see them endure harm at an alarming level. My brother endured pain as well. It was hard for him to take but God knew he could handle it.

My niece is a gift from up above and is forever in the grips of HIS grace. God saw fit to snatch her out of harms way and placed her where she is safe and free to be who He created her to be. She is so full of life and talent and to see someone else (who is supposed to be the one to help her bloom) try to keep her down is painful.

If you know of someone in child abuse and or neglect, I know it's hard but take the time to collect the data and proof you will need to make a strong case. Then wait for the right time to take it to court and it will work out for you. Don't give up on that child. You are their only hope. You are their only fresh air (besides God). You are the only one they see. Don't give up. Get strong to strengthen them. God will make sure they are alright and that's DEFINITE!!!

Writers Get Away!

As writers, authors, bloggers, etc, we are always surrounded by life. That's not bad because most of us are inspired by the things going on around us however, sometimes our week looks a little like this:

Yes, we make it through but after a week like this or maybe even months, we would like to get away just to write in some peace. Life comes at us many different ways and we are troopers. I know for myself and a few of my friends (who are writers) need that time alone. We get up in the morning preparing everyone including ourselves for the day, go throughout the day working then come home to a house full and by the time all of the work is done, there is either little time or we're too tired to even press a letter on the keyboard. Well, I have the answer for you!

We are hosting a WRITERS GET AWAY RETREAT!

It's time to do away with the picture above and get refreshed!

This retreat will be just what the doctor ordered. No electronics will be allowed (except for the laptop obviously needed for writing), plenty of time for writing in a room by yourself, peace and quiet, along with some refreshing time.

The cost is only $250. You pay half of the cost upfront then the other half by September 30th. This fee is non-refundable due to the costs of everything having to be paid upfront.

Be sure to bring your networking business materials! Sign up today! Rooms are limited.!
