Music can be relaxing, soothing, make you cry, happy and a great ministry to many. Wanted to share my music with you all out there, I have a Spotify account if you search for my account you can listen with hardly no commercials/interruptions, enjoy great Apostolic music. My favorite is Sister Allard, if I could sing I'd like to sing like her. Had the privilige to meet her at our Jr. Camp and later at our church the following weekend. My account name is all lowercase, no spaces...laughterinsideme . Hope you enjoy it and holler if you like it.😎

Recently in the book of Acts the word fear keeps standing out to me...when the Disciples preached the gospel to people a fear would come over the people,  many repented and converted. Several mornings I have gone to the sanctuary and weeping I tell God there is no fear in the land towards You. Then I thought the fear that is out there is evil fear from abuse, random shootings in various places, crime and other things but yet this fear seems to be prevalent in the land. Another evil twist is the slogan very common out there "no fear" which in my opinion promotes further no fear... just my thoughts....

Thank God he chose my role as a Mother...the most caring humans on the earth. Nothing like a Mommas love! Despite all the weakness we have as women God chose us to love and nurture babies. Lately reading and studying how we (as woman) inoculate and bond with babies while in our wombs just astonishes me. Anyways let me get off my soap box here... Happy Mother's Day to you all out there! I'll be posting more often soon...Hang in there!

This lady is to be honored, a great prayer warrior and a true friend in my life.  Sandy Friend a lady that I personally know walked and talked with the Lord daily, I must say she had cloud or favor with Him. I will only scratch the surface with what I am going to share with you about her. Our friendship came about when I had first started attending Faith Temple (now Valley Pentecostal Church) hardly knew anyone so she invited me to her home with her family for Thanksgiving. I accepted her invite which till this day I am so glad I did, something about her spirit attracted me to her. She shared her yearbooks from when she attended CLC Bible College in Stockton, California, and OH MY did we share a laugh with the hairdo’s and dressing from back then…I am so glad we don’t have to wear our hair like that and our skirts lengths today would be looked as Quakers back then (LOL). We had a unique friendship it was not a clingy friendship whenever we got together we just pick up fr...

Just got back from a conference and was reading an Elders book he had just published and I was inspired to write the next paragraphs... In 2007 I discovered a lump the size of a quarter that at times ached so doctors wanted to cut, aspirate and whatever else they thought was needed,  I told them NO you will not touch me. As christians when faced with hard decisions I believe we have the authority to approach God throne boldly and ask for certain things in our lifes. I was desperate so I did that I inquired of the Lord and told the Lord if you don't heal me I am leaving this world but Lord I am not ready to leave this world. I have two sons that still need to be raised and I don't want their father or my family to raise them. I am desperate Lord heal me or take me quickly. A year later I returned for my yearly test, and the technician stopped in the middle of the procedure and told me he had to go get a doctor...at that precise moment I called out to God and told Him yo...

This past week I door knocked just about everyday straight from work for our Easter drama. Wow it had been awhile since I knocked, it brought back a memory with my younger son Jacob. I am not the type of parent to just let my children just go on their own to bus outreach or other activities especially at a very young age and if it involves the world. So no matter how tired I was, how much homework I had, housework I went with them. So close to 3 1/2 years I doorknocked with my sons every Saturday in the extreme heat of Arizona or our nice winters. We were at an apartment complex when we came upon a door and I was speaking to a hispanic lady while my son was standing next to me just observing everything around the front door and what he could see into the apartment through the front door. He had a funny expression on his face so I told him, "come on Papas we have to move on." Later at home he ask Mom did you see those toys at the entrance they were filthy and inside her hous...

Recently in class we studied about our Apostolic uncut hair as we all know its a ladies glory...we have power with it. Its also signfies submission to God the head of our homes underneath that is our husbands/fathers depending on where you are in life. But I was listening to Elder Dallas Medford preaching one of our campmeetings and its also our worship...He said ladies when your hair is so long and you have to grab it in the middle to brush the bottom part of it thats WORSHIP! I had never seen it like that but it impacted me. Hair, Power, Submission, Worship! Amazing Will add scripture to this article it was just a quick thought that came to mind...
