Happy New Year. . .2012 Do You Feel The Excitement?. . .I DO!

Yes, we are on the verge of a New Year!!! 2012 is approaching and I have to admit, I feel excitement in the air. I truly believe this is going to a year of great things! Why, you ask? Well for a couple of reasons. The first being is, I know in my heart, God knows where I am going. His Word says, “The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day” Proverbs 4:18. Then here is what it reads in the next verse, “But the way of the wicked is like total darkness. They have no idea what they are stumbling over.  Wow, there was a time in my life when I can truly say I lived in verse 19. . . stumbling over STUFF trying to figure out which direction to go. But today, THIS DAY! I can shout to the masses that even if I stumble I am not in the DARK!!! Thank you God!

The second reason I believe this year is going be about greatness is, because I am doing what one of my favorite authors, Melody Beattie wrote. She talked about embracing your destiny. . .”How often we search outside of ourselves for some elusive moment, for an experience like someone else is having, for an emotion we’d like to feel but aren’t, at least not right now. How often we long to be somewhere other than where we are, or someone other than who we are. How easy it can be to complain about and regret our past, thinking it’s somehow wrong. The answer is to fall in love, fall in love with our own life. Our destiny isn’t some far-off moment or something that happens to someone else. Our destiny is taking place right now. It’s been happening all along.” We need to realize that our destiny is tied up in the choices we make. We need to accept and fall in love with our own lives, loving the lessons we have obtain from living our lives. . .Never discount where you are. . .there is a blessing tied to it! Where you are is part of the journey of where you’re going!!! Think about Job. . .where he was BLESSED HIS LIFE. . . he didn’t even see it coming!  DESTINY!!!

Merry Christmas From Titus Works

When I began to look back over my life I can truly say boldly. . . THAT GOD HAS BEEN GOOD TO ME!!! There are so many experiences I could share with you to prove that, but we would be here all day. There were many times when I have been in the middle of what seemed to not be going in the direction I would have desired. But, when it was all said and done, I realized it went exactly the way it NEEDED TO GO, for GOD'S WILL TO BE DONE.

The pieces of our lives is what creates our testimony and many times we need to just let the pieces be. So many times we need to just let ourselves be. In order for life to be! Although this may not be popular, sometimes chaos needs to precede order. The pieces will come together! The problem is we feel better if can see what's to come, living in the unknown can be uncomfortable. That is where our faith has to come in. . . Listen, one of my favorite authors stated it like this, "You don't have to force the pieces to fit together if it's not time. You don't have to know. There is power sometimes in not knowing. There is power in letting go. Power in waiting. Power in stillness. Power in trust. There is power in letting the disconnected pieces be until they settle into a whole. The action you are to take will appear. Timely. Clearly. What you're to do will become clear. Let the pieces be, and they'll take shape. Soon you will see the picture." . . and thus forms our testimonies!! Join me on Thursday, December 15th at 8:00 p.m. CST. . .  

LET THE REDEEMED SAY SO!!! See ya Thursday!!

It's A Girl Thing. . .The Power of a Daughter's Love!

I would imagine that being a parent to a daughter is an awesome thing. Not that parenting a son isn't I'm sure, but there is something about looking at a little mini-me that just does something to your heart. The power of this relationship is so grand that it places you in a position to change how you do things immediately. It changes how you see women and yourself. The love that flows from the eyes of your daughter makes you want to make sure she gets what she needs to be empowered to become the woman God has destined her to be.

As you commit your parenting efforts to the Lord, He gives you the grace and ability to bless your children in special, powerful ways. So, Titus Works is asking the following questions:

~

What is the greatest challenge you face right now as a parent to your daughter or daughters?

What is the greatest joy in your life as you parent these awesome little women?

How often do you go to God in prayer for them?

Finally, Are you demonstrating the character you would like to nurtured and grow in your daughter?

Such as:

Being obedient

Pursue God's truth

Love God

Teach God's Word

Don't Follow false gods

Raising daughters certainly isn't easy. You may be facing an uphill battle in your child rearing efforts. But with time, patience, consistency, humility, and a complete trust in God, you can bless your daughters beyond your imagination. . . .IT'S A GIRL THING!!!
