Let Peace on Earth Begin With Me
I don’t dispose of disposable plastic cups and spoons,
Survival Mode
In all of Labor there is profit.. Prov. 14:23
I wash them and use them again and again and again
I buy my clothes from the thrift stores and some furniture too
The plates and drinking glasses I get from there too
I eat everything I cook and cook everything I eat
My greatest entertainment is to realize how blessed I am to be where I am today
I style my own hair and care for my fingers and toes because
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
On the job my goal is to be the best in production and quality
I cannot forget what an opportunity I have to be where I am
I do not want to be a cast away
I never forget why I was hired: to get the job done.
So I just do whatever it takes in time and with talent, no matter what. I get the job done.
I give my boss more than she asks for because
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
I am going back to school to get my masters degree so I can get my part time job.
This America is not place for one job. I want to redeem the time wasted on Charles Taylor.
This Liberian war has taken so much from me but thank God for what is left.
I really do not know what movies are showing or who is winning the American idol,
I know we are having an election and I pray for the best at heart to win but I can do no more than that. Because,
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
I may be in
America but I have not arrived
yetI may be alive but I am not living
yetI may have food but I am not filled
yetI may have a job but I am not making profit
yetI may have seats but I can’t sit down
I may be in the boat but I have not crossed the river yet
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode
I’m in the survival mode

The Power of Belief
All things are Possible to theperson who Believes
Jesus - Mark 9:23
I am continually inspired by the words of Jesus Christ and how, though we only have a small portion of His words recorded in the Holy Bible, they are so powerful. Many books, poems and songs have been writen about the what Jesus said about Belief.
Some people try to limit the words of Jesus to matters concerning Faith like Salvation and Heaven.
I see a different Jesus. A Jesus who wants us to use the power belief in every aspect of our lives:
Healing
Deliverance
Overcoming Temptation
Achieving Success in relationships, careers and business as individuals, families, communities and nations.Think about it, Jesus said All Things are Possible for the Person who Believes.
This means that whatever you want to see become a reality in you life, the life of your family, Church or Nation is only going to happen when you believe.
Thanks be to God, I believed when my first husband was killed and I became a Widow and a Single Mother, that God was going to work it all out for my Good and He has. He provided me a wonderful husband and father to all my children. I was homeless in the Ivory Coast and I believed that God would provide for me and He found place for me in the Agape Home. I was unemployed in the Ivory Coast and I believed and God Provided me a Position at the African Development Bank.
Just to name a few, and I continue to believe that God has me on Earth and in the USA for a Purpose and day by day He is revealing that to me.
How is your life? Are you the person you want to be? Are you where you want to be? I have good news for you from Jesus: It is all Possible when you Believe. So I invite you begin believing for your life, your health, your future, your children, your spouse, your career.
Believe and you will receive.
