The reality of the matter could never really be understood, but just for a minute let me enlighten you. The cycle that has manifested has left different levels of brokenness. However every message is created with intent to witness and encourage, along with Gods direction and confirmation of the word. As we approach another special day to honor mother’s and those who have somehow taken the place. It is ok to shower with flowers, eat a nice meal, take a walk by the water, or even dance the night away~ reality is the mother is to be praised! The gift to carry life as God creates a bond so thick, the hopes and dreams to one day raise up a little king or Queen. What a beautiful image of family unity as the mother truly tries her best to attain to not be apart of the broken dreams.
A mother’s cry is so profound in many ways. There is nothing that cannot be done in the mother’s eyes while she reaches for the strength to survive. The rejection tries to settle in but the mother is determined to win. As she watches life grow right before her eyes, she can not help but to cry. In that cry she still cries out for the King meant to shine in her eyes while never loosing focus of the most high. The mother sometimes does not even realize she is a queen, and questions how can that be? I am broken, depressed, tired of being tired, can barely make ends meet, and overall I feel defeated. The answer is not nearly what the mother may feel, or even see, the reality is you will be set free. God sees your pain as you stand up tall with the task to overcome many obstacles, the prosperity that you desire, yes it will take you higher but your spirit can never go empty because God will provide the increase! The defeat settles in from those who have crossed your path, you have to remember that some are meant to stay in your past, and in the future trust you will have the last laugh! You have been taken in ways unimaginable questioning and praying that you will not relive that pain anymore. More than anything you desire to be everything to your children while dealing with things the enemy uses to kill you. Guess what I have the good news GOD IS NOT DONE WITH YOU!!! Every tear you have cried God is going to completely transform you from the inside. Inside of you a New Heart will be made for you to be able to trust and love once again. The same broken promises that you once faced will be replaced with the dreams that you have prayed for! Remain encouraged and let your beauty shine, you already know all things happen in Gods time! That time will come sooner than you could ever imagine, so let your heart rejoice and be glad!!!
God sees you my Queen your works are not in vain. As you run the house, prepare the food, wash the clothes, discipline the children, run your errands, pay the bills, work your dead end job……..
God sees you my Queen your heart is crying, your soul is dying, internally from all the lying. While you keep on trying the tears are drying. You keep on climbing…….
God sees you my Queen you want to give up, your tired, it seems easier to give up. Your feed up! stop right there, calm down God can and will turn it around…..
God sees you my Queen not as you see yourself, you don’t realize how beautiful you are with or without material and false minerals that deceive your unique beauty by following what society thinks you should be……
God sees you my Queen as you worry about what people are talking about, you want your named removed from their mouth…. What do they know anyway they cannot take care of you or your babies…….That is when God steps in GOD IS YOUR FRIEND………
God sees you my Queen while you and your family continue to disagree about things that should not be, You can change the destiny by believing that with God you are set free…..
God sees you my Queen while you compromise “Oh Just this One last time” “Maybe he is ready”
“Maybe it will work” I have tried it before but I Know this has to Work” ………
Stop right there Queen realize your self worth… you are above precious jewels…..pure as the angels wings…. Beautiful as the flying butterfly…. You are hope…. You are true…. You are worthy of a KING

Universal Fast Tomorrow Wednesday May 4th
Good evening :)
Tomorrow we will have a universal fast from 6am until 6pm, consuming only fruit, water, and the word of God. If you have health concerns in any type of way, please seek God as of what you need to sacrifice. There are many things other than food that God will also honor. As I mentioned in the message I sent out over the weekend, I am looking forward to a better turn out in the Summer. I am in the process of planning a fun, and creative event just for you!
The scripture that we will fast towards reads :
"Her children arise and call her blessed;her husband also, and he praises her: “Many women do noble things,but you surpass them all. Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring praise at the city gate."
Proverbs 31:28-29
Meditation:
In the name of Jesus I stand of a blessing. God grant me the strength to be a better mother, order my steps according to the will you have for my life. Create in me a special divinity that you have designed especially for me. Create in me a new heart built with unconditional love. As I continue this journey, I know that I am not alone. In your word it says you will never leave nor forsake me, and I can and will dwell in your house forever. I am ready for my blessings God!
Peace & Blessings

Fairy Tale
Good evening Queens:
Below is lyrics of one of Anita Bakers most popular songs. You tube it when you get a chance. I found myself just singing this song over and over in my spirit... the lyrics made me reflect. We all want a fairy tale right???
I can remember stories, those things my mother said
She told me fairy tales, before I went to bed
She spoke of happy endings, then tucked me in real tight
She turned my night light on, and kissed my face good night
My mind would fill with visions, of perfect paradise
She told me everything, she said he'd be so nice
He'd ride up on his horse and, take me away one night
I'd be so happy with him, we'd ride clean out of sight
She never said that we would, curse, cry and scream and lie
She never said that maybe, someday he'd say goodbye
The story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-uh
No, uh-huh-mmm-mmm
She spoke about happy endings, of stories not like this
She said he'd slay all dragons, defeat the evil prince
She said he'd come to save me, swim through the stormy seas
I'd understand the story, it would be good for me
You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
My story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-yes
I don't look for pie up in the sky, baby
Need reality, now, said I
Don't feel the need to be pacified,
Don't try
Honey, I know you lied
You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
I found no magic potion, no horse with wings to fly
I found the poison apple, my destiny to die
No royal kiss could save me, no magic spell to spin
My fantasy is over, my life must now begin
My story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-
Eh, hey, hey-ee-mmm, mmm
(laugh-laugh-laugh) Lord have mercy
(laugh) ooo
Mmm, mmm (laugh) ooo-mmm-oh Lord

This song relates to phenomenal mothers in many different ways. Never would a phenomenal mother imagine to live a life that would be filled with such pain. Whatever reason you joined this group, it is definitely for a profound reason. This group "ministry" will provide healing in many different ways. The vision is for you to see how special you are in the midst of not so special circumstances. We all know there is no such thing as perfect anything. Growing up, yeah of course we were consumed with the thought of being a princess and living a fairy tale life with a happy ending. However that is not hardly the case. I call you Queen for several reasons but the main reasons are, you come from royalty~you are a child of God! You are worthy~ deserving to be treated like royalty.
In the paths we have been placed on by choices and free will have brought us to a space that is not quite a happy ending or anything close to it. To be honest it is painful, confusing, and frustrating. In the end your cup is empty, your eyes are dry from all the tears. You begin to plead with your own self realizing enough is enough but still holding on to that fairy tale. What can you do? How can you do it? When do you do it? these are questions that you battle to a certain extent. Anything that places you in a position were you feel defeated is not the position for you. It is important to be lifted at all times. On the flip side, you may be dealing with a principality such as incarceration, drugs, or alcohol which has become a part of your life, because it is the part of your child/children father life or your parents life which has trickled down on you which created a bondage. So how exactly do we tie in all of these things in a simple yet powerful statement.
" God Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference."
Serenity is what is needed in times in which you are experiencing. You hold no control over others but you have control over yourself, and the light that you shed will shine in dark places. As you go through the valley, sinking and climbing out of the swaps~ no that God is right there to pick you up and lead you back to the promise designed just for you. Will it be a fairy tale on earth. I am afraid not, but you be able to experience the truth and loyalty you deserve. You will cry tears of joy and not tears of pain. Never stop believing in the power of God, even when all fails and you feel like giving up. Let God dwell in you, preserve your body, meditate on the word of God, focus on loving you as you continue to teach your children real love.....always remember Gods love is unchanging and available to replenish you everyday!
Peace and Blessings

3 girls that became Phenomenal Women....
Sweet Innocent Child:
A young girl woke up middle in the night to use the bathroom. To her surprise she could not get in the bathroom. She frantically looked in everyroom but could not find anyone. Her little brother was asleep, and she figured her mom was asleep but she could not be found. The little girl went back to the bathroom. This time she was able to push the door back just enough to see her mother laying beside toilet with a needle stuck in arm. She began to cry as she tried to push the door open, but her mother's foot would not allow her to open the door. At this point she thought her mother was dead, so she immediately went to get her brother. Her brother was just 1 years old and she was only 6 years old. She woke her brother up out of her deep sleep, and got him dressed. She was determined to find help for her and her brother. With confidence she opened up the front door, not knowing were she was going. God kept her and her brother as she walked down a dark street in the cool night air. Her brother was crying because of the uncertainty. As she continued to walk down the street a neighbor spotted the small children and ran out to get them. The young girl said my mom is dead and I have to find help for me and my brother. The neighbor went back to the young girls house and immediately called the ambulance. At this point the young girl was very confused but happy the neighbor had helped. Everyday the little girl was not sure what to expect on a daily basis. The only thing that stayed on her mind was making sure her brother was ok.She strived for excellence, but in the back of her mind she vividly saw the needle and eventually new that her mom was on drugs. How exactly is she Phenomenal. She is Phenomenal because inspite of all the confusion she tapped into her divinity to be strong for her and her brother, and she never gave up on her mother even battling what she saw that night.
Letters to A Father:
A teenage girl began to write this letter, not exactly sure were to start. Her dad had been in jail for quite some time. While he was in jail, her life seem to fly by with decisions and choices that consumed her mind. She asked Why Daddy did you have to leave me? Why Daddy does life have to be this way? Why Daddy have you not been here for me? Why Daddy when I cried and screamed you could not save me? With anger the words were like fire to the paper, as her eyes filled with tears she could not explain the feeling. Although in every letter she felt her father's love but just could not grasp the fact that he was not in her life at the time she needed him the most. Decisions were made based on these feelings. After the decisions she became angry. Angry at her life and Angry at her dad. How exactly is she Phenomenal. She is Phenomenal because inspite of all the feeling of neglect she tapped into who she truly was, while becoming a woman. Realizing the first man she loved was in and out of her life, she strongly desired that the man she would choose would not display the same behavoirs that would make her feel neglected. She never gave up on her dad, even after every letter.
Just another Baby Momma- Correction Just another Phenomenal Momma
Battling the decisions of no wanting to have children before being established. Battling the decisions of not really being sure if this was truly the one for her. Realizing that society would just give her another name. Tired and confused of life that somehow led her to her breaking point. Every day she would search deep within to try and understand everything that had happened. One day may feel like heaven and the next day like hell. Seeking validation without the revelation. Wanting and needing to feel love, but never really seeking unconditional love. Love built on broken promises that seemed to linger in her heart, suddenly one day she had relived her childhood. When she looked at the young man she knew that she loved him more than he even loved himself. There was still something missing to this equation. Oh how the young woman prayed that she would never encounter these feelings again, suddenly she knew that her healing was in the midst. For years she had given up so many times, overwhelmed by the so many lies. Realizing what has consumed his soul has become deeper that what once was. Why me she asked God. As she searched for the answer she knew that it would be hard. To love is a beautiful thing, but when you reach the point of coldness the love is lost in the cold rain. The rain had become her tears of pain until she realized that she needed to pray. The young woman knew that God had delivered her from the same pain that she experienced from her parents. The curse has to be broken is what she thought, but first she had to forgive and let go and let God. How exactly is she Phenomenal. She is Phenomenal because she allowed God to take over while accepting the serenity prayer. She began to pray: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change and the wisdom to know the difference...
May God Bless you in a special way, and remember you are PHENOMENAL
Peace and Blessings
