Then I have my I cant wait to experience song- he loves me by Jill Scott. For the last 2 days I have been conducting business with Jill Scott and Erykah Badu in my ears. O, the power of their lyrics blasting loudly while trying to get things accomplished.
Im still mediating over the email of the guy for me from my godsis....I just keep saying dang God look where you have brought me:)I honestly thought that the Steph from 2009 on back was never going to get married b/c the guy would have to have the perfect job, perfect house, perfect vehicle, perfect looks from teeth to shoes, perfect credit score, & just let you have your way. We all know perfection doesn't exist. Now the new 2010 Stephanie husband will be the man that GOD sends you & will be made in his image. Your husband will be a god fearing man, faithful, honest, trustworthy, understanding, determined, & will have nothing but love for YOU. I love it! Thanks!
God keeps showing up everywhere! Last night I thought about all the prayers and ways God was trying to tell me to be patient, I'm working it out for your good- I promise, just give me a little more time. Now, this I know, but I'm ready to enter the next stage so bad. My Bff and I had a all day laugh, cry session( we are starting to have these more frequent- dont know if thats good or bad- examine it later) however, I think we both cleared our conscious and ready for God to take our life to the next phase. She sent me an email yesterday about 3 trees that I love soooo much that I cant get enough of but of course I related it to my life. The 3 trees all had dreams of what they wanted to be someday. When the woodmens came to chop them down they just knew that had gotten there wish- to be a treasure chest, great ship to haul kings and queens, and the last one wanted to be able to see heaven and earth. After a while, they forgot their dreams cause they were set aside. Then the 1st tree ended up being the manger that held baby Jesus- a treasure unlike no other. The 2nd tree ended up being the ship Noah used a great ship. Last one was the cross Jesus christ was nailed to that stretched high to the heavens. Wow, they each got their dreams just not the way they planned. I realized God has done the same for me. I thought when I got ready to move to DC, I was going to be married with a husband and kids but I realized God has a better wish in store. Love it!!!
I'm realizing I might have missed my calling as a P.I. At first Kim said maybe you are going to be a preacher like your national chaplain. I said naw, I don't think so. I have no problem spreading God's word but I'm no saint to do it. Next she says will definitely Private investigation is something you might want to check into. I said I do it as a hobby..lol.. She said but I just asked you to goggle a name and not only did you get his wife name, you got an address and telephone number. I said AND, that comes with the pkg..LOL... Yes, I know I runs credit checks, get phone numbers, email addresses and family info but is it that bad????
So I am really loving the latest Essence magazine. I saved it cause it is all me! My mom even agreed it was by far their best work! So I bought school supplies- yes I love them but cause I'm getting ready for the next part of my life. Everytime I think something is crazy or a waist I realize God is simply preparing me and getting me ready. A good friend said you will be at peace when you see God in the little things( drivers license)...I do! I do!:) Anyway, I decided to email my goals to myself. The red is what is to come and the blue is what I have already done. With the help of a soror I never met, essence mag, and some great BFFs( Kim & Tiff) I came up with this:
