I love Dr. Seuss

I love Dr. Seuss. Oh yes, I do. Some of his quotes gave me the greatest joy today; starting with, "I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!” The last line was my favorite. I felt invincible.

There are other Seuss quotes in my happy place. The next was encouraging and so true. “If things start happening, don't worry, don't stew, just go right along and you'll start happening too.”  Those words evoked emotions and I could not contain them. Supernatural bursts of energy infused me - to keep moving, keep dreaming, keep doing, until I actually 'start happening'. 

I bounced right from that quote to, “You're off to Great Places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting,  So... get on your way!” You know what? I believe. I am off to great places. My expectations have risen 1000%.

By the time I got to the next quote - “Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try” My brain had moved into overdrive... creativity stretched, yawned and said, "I am here, I am up, and I am ready. Let's go!"

I was having a ball; then I saw, “If you never did you should. These things are fun and fun is good.” I made a decision to lighten up even more. I promised myself that I would do spontaneous and joyous things. For me that could be as simple as a long walk on the beach right before the sun begins to set. I actually envisioned myself there as that beautiful ball of orange slowly sinks below the horizon. I am sitting on the sand, water gently lapping at my toes, banana split in hand, and a languid smile on my face. 

With his words, Dr. Seuss reminded me that,  “It's not about what it is, it's about what it can become.” I believe I will hold on to that perspective and begin again tomorrow full of hope, determined, armed with a bat and a great attitude. 

The end quote? “Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one.”  I strive to make this my perpetual perspective. After all "It is fun to have fun.” 

My bond with Dr. Seuss has been renewed. Who knows what is in store tomorrow, yet somehow it does not matter, I will make it an awesome day! I know - it's up to me.

Today, I Write

Today I write, 
like every other day. 
Sometimes I pen the journey
on vacant, ready, reams
sometimes it's only written 
in my memory, it seems
But today, I write, 
like every other day.

My First Book

Do you have a strong desire to consistently and continuously minister under the full power of the anointing? Has your gift been well received yet seemed to make no real spiritual impact? Do you want to identify issues that block the flow of the anointing and develop factors which cultivate and enhance it in your life and ministry?

My upcoming book will answer your questions and provide tools to help you safeguard against contamination and dilution of your anointing.

More news coming soon…stay tuned!

Single Release In A Few Weeks

Whew, what a journey this has been - filled with setbacks (really set ups in disguise). I have learned that you can never go wrong waiting on God's timing. Finally, the production of my sophomore project is in full swing. Several years ago I decided that the project would be titled Live Right, and God said "no it's not", but He did not say it right away; He just gently guided me in a new direction in the midst of my process.

 The title song of the project is called Intimacy, and God took me on a journey, not only to draw me, but to increase my heart's cry for more of Him. That is what the song is all about, no surface relationship - but something deep, expansive and meaningful.

The song will be released in a few weeks. Copyright in place, recording, mix and mastering is complete - photo shoot complete and pictures in hand, just wrapping up the packaging, etc. You will be the first to know the actual release date, so stay tuned.
