Everything In Its Time

This is a statement of how I am feeling right now. I am so grateful to God  for grace and mercy. I just have to take a pause and thank Him. I see how far he's brought me . Only I can know where my journey has brought me from, God knows the path I am traveling, I will continue to let Him and His Son, and the Holy Spirit guide me and I will continue to follow their  lead as to which move I need to make when. Doing so has not failed me so far. Hallelujah!

Of course, I am so anxious to get started providing services to children. I really wanted to be ready to start at least for limited hours through out the summer with at least Dance and Piano lessons, Of course, everything happens as it is supposed to, according to His will on His timetable. This walk is certainly teaching me this lesson. I have no doubt it will all happen as God has shown me,  I am like a kid waiting for Christmas. I must be patient. I know there are still things to do and people to put in place and so I have to take a step back and let my Father do his thing.

Even as I am writing this blog, The Spirit  has brought to my remembrance, the childhood friend I ran into a year ago. I stopped to give him a call before it got too late and look at God! I might have a viable space to hold charity events to benefit Children's World of Music. I have a meeting next week with the Dance Program Director and he just happens to be a great manager/promoter. I am feeling so much joy as I finish this entry. God is so good to me, even when I am going through, I am smiling. I smile because I am happy. I smile because I am glad. If his eye is on the  sparrow, then I know He watches me!

What Do You Have To Give?

It’s been said that you cannot give away what you do not have. One of the most spiritual important insights or secrets in life is that you already have, and always have had, what you need to give away! 

If you impart the message that ‘I am not worthy’ the universe will send it straight back in many shapes, forms and circumstances. When we say ‘give me’ we are imparting this message. We are saying we think we need to get something to complete ourselves or prove our worth. Most of us are taught to live a life of gimmie gimmie gimmie – always striving, desiring, wanting, struggling. We do so only because we think that when we get what we want we will be fulfilled and esteemed by others. But it’s an illusion. We are all already complete and worthy but we cannot know it and experience it, until we give it away! 

Only giving allows us to know what we are and what we have within. Ask the question – how can I serve? The intention to serve will point you towards what you need to give. If the intention is real it also generates the will. The most successful people in life are not go getters, but go givers!

Time Is Moving On

It's amazing to me that I haven't written since January and it going into the end of April, the first quarter of 2014 is over! Time is flying by. My 56th anniversary is fast approaching. I have not met my all my personal goals for this year, however I am pushing forward on both personal and professional goals. All I can tell you is I am not in control, I have let go and I am letting God do it his way because I know he only wants to prosper me. I am so thankful for all the wonderful folks he has put into place to help me on this journey.

He is so amazing and awesome and loving and his grace and mercy is what I am most thankful for. It's amazing how my attitude has changed since I decided to develop my relationship with my Lord and Savior. Things could not be working out any better.

I prayed for a connection to my local school board and low and behold, I now have one! It is so true as a believer, once you ask God for what you want and consider it done, it is so!!

I am sorry,  I had a different subject  to write about tonight, but I told you I let him lead and this is what he told me to write. Someone needs to know about God's grace and mercy.

Is there a difference between grace and mercy?

Yes!  Mercy is NOT getting what you deserve–the wrath of God.  Grace is getting what you DON’T deserve–the righteousness of Christ.  

Could you imagine if we didn't have both? I would not want to live anywhere I didn't.

We just finished celebrating Christ's Resurrection this past Sunday. Christ came and died to show us mercy. He showers us in his grace daily. 

We are discussing God's grace, mercy and more on Infect Truth which airs Thursday nights from 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm. The host is Brother Bass, His wife Troy and yours truly. Consider this your personal invitation. There is no judgement, just open discussion/communication. Join us and be blessed.  Dial in 712-432-0900 enter code 155879# when prompted. You can also listen from the website. If you shy, communicate in the chat room. We hope to welcome this week Thursday. Thanks for reading.

Transition

Wow what a powerful message I just heard from the Man of God, Pastor James Mason.  He explained that God does not want us to stop in the midst of our transition. Keep moving, keep striving and know that God is in control. He got this!

That message has gotten deep, deep within me, it has pierced my soul. I am in transition! I can't stop. Whenever your about to come out into your own, exit the storm, the enemy comes for you.

Yes I am being challenged right now. I know that no matter what it looks like at this minute. It's going be alright in the end. How do I know? I know because God says so. He will always let you know, but you have to listen and you have to hear. It was meant for me to hear the Preacher's message at the exact moment I heard it, at that exact point. He knows what we need and when we need it, even when we are not aware of it.

Proverbs 3:5-6  Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. 

Isaiah 41:10   Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. 

Matthew 17:20  He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” 

 

 I am encouraged and as such I encourage you to hold on, don't stop, keep striving, keep reaching. God has more for you. Wherever you are, know it is not you final destination. 

Remember, He never closes a door without opening a window. I pray for you and for me and because I believe, I know, we will be triumphant!  Have a wonderful day - 

Deuteronomy 31:6  Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.

Intuition

On Our Show Infect Truth, we discussed the attributes of Wisdom and what the Bible says of Wisdom. It was quite illuminating. However, there was also a brief discussion of Intuition, which is what I'd like to focus on here. First Webster definition of  Intuition is:
 
a natural ability or power that makes it possible to know something without any proof or evidence : a feeling that guides a person to act a certain way without fully understanding why: something that is known or understood without proof or evidence

The Free Dictionary describes it this way:

1. a. The act or faculty of knowing or sensing without the use of rational processes, immediate cognition. 

    b. Knowledge gained by the use of this faculty; a perceptive insight.

2. A sense of something not evident or deducible; an impression.

I read a writer once who wrote that their are five types of intuition, He referred to them as follows:

Prophetic, Intellectual, Heart, Gut, and Hand. 

However, this writer believes they are all one in the same. 

Where does Intuition come from? 

During our discussion on wisdom, it became clearer to me that intuition is something each of us is born with, placed in us by God at our creation and activated by faith and wisdom. 

When I was younger, I would hear my intuition, but think I knew best or simply ignored it (which most of do) and those situations did have good outcomes. One day, after deciding that I would listen to that inner voice instead of doing it my way, I had a very different outcome. Through trial and error I have discovered that when I follow my intuition, I never go wrong and when I deviate from it, I mess up every time. Needless to say, I follow it always now, even when it does not seem to make sense.  

I believe intuition is something that guides us through life to help us make good decisions and maneuvers. God looks out for us, but, if we would just lean toward his plan for us and not fight and stop giving in to our own egos, we would have a much easier time of it. Yes, God made us in his image, but it is up to us to develop a mind like his. This requires quiet time with him through prayer and meditation and the study of his word. This is where the wisdom comes from in the spiritual sense. It is good to have earthly wisdom, but we should be striving for more. We need spiritual wisdom to survive in both this realm and the next.  

Here are some Wisdom references from the bible. There are many others but these are the ones we discussed: Proverbs 2:1-6, Proverbs 3:13-24, proverbs 4:5-9, Proverbs 5:1-2, Proverbs 7:4. Next week will continue our discussion with Proverbs 8:22-36. I invite you to join us every Thursday 8 - 9:30 pm est. on WDGP Radio.

Where Have I Been?

Time certainly does not stand still. It is hard to believe that I have not posted here for 5 months. Wow, I have been so busy, which in my assessment is a wonderful thing. I have been working diligently on getting Children's World of Music up and running. Currently we are offering piano lessons, which is a good place to start from and will help with any other instrumentation the child wants to learn. The plan is to include a literacy program, voice coaching, music production,dj instruction, stage production, dance and copyrighting. The cost is minimal and scholarships are available. We are seeking donors who wish to assist the student in participating in the program. We are in need of funds to purchase a van for transportation from school to the program as well as volunteers to assist with instruction, fundraising, transportation and more. Please contact me dianabroomfield@gmail.com.

In addition to CWOM, I am involved in a stage play titled She Made It, is is a first for me and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I have a small part and guess what? I get to sing. I enjoying stretching myself, I never knew what I could do until I tried. I hope you will come out to see at least one of the performances. We are always adding to the story and you will always enjoy and be inspired by the production. She Made It is based on fact. It is the story of the playwright's life. And through it all She Made It and you can too.

Of course WDGP Radio is doing well. We have added a couple of new shows, The Mellow Mix with Shenanigans from Shani Elliot, CynDiva and Traci Chic and music mixes by DJ Harvey Dent which airs Saturdays from 4 - 7 pm est; and for your soul spirit, we offer Infect Truth with Brother Bass, join us as we discuss topics like Who Are You?, Renewing Your Mind and other topics approached through biblical principals airing Thursdays from 8 - 9 pm est. We welcome these shows and also sponsors. If your intersting in being an advertising sponsor to WDGP  check out the service here=> Advertise On WDGP.

Ongoing Journey

Those who are familiar with my style know that I am forever an encourager, that is how I keep myself encouraged. It has always been my belief that if you help others you help yourself as well. I post the most inspirational quotes I can find on my Facebook and Twitter pages, while continuing to Brand myself as an entrepreneur, Coach, motivator, Broadcast Professional and the like.

If you follow me you also know that I have always said that this is not the time to put all your eggs in 1 basket as it relates to a "job" (just over broke) gone are the days of our Fathers when you stayed on a job for 20 - 30 years and retired with a gold watch and the promise of enjoying their final years enjoying the flowers. Most folk who do retire these days, do so reluctantly because their retirement income will not be able to sustain their lifestyle in retirement. I personally am not relying on any pension and just flat out forget about social security.

If you still have a "job" this is the time to begin (if you haven't started already) to build your residual income streams. You might ask how? I say do your research and see what's working. Discover how much money you have to invest and then see what fits. I suggest that if you are just starting out you try low cost ventures and as you gain your footing, go for the higher payoff. I will share with you the streams I am cultivating, Some of them pay very well and some produce a modest income stream. Just investigate and find out if any of them work for you and of course you can ask me anything.

Lower Start Up Costs:

SFI - Free to Low Costs monthly - Several ways to generate streams
Level 9 -  $10 a month - refer 3 and get residual payments

Moderate Start Up Costs:

MCA -  $79.98 to start then $39.98 monthly.

Medium High Start Up Costs:

Organo Gold - costs depend on your entry level and there is a monthly autoship strongly suggested.

I have a couple others opportunities I can recommend. Just let me know what you need by leaving your questions, comments below. Thank you and I send wishes for your continued success.
