Hi there! It's been a bit since I've blogged but, gosh, I have to tell you life has been craaaazy! There have been so many changes happening in my life and in the lives of those around me. I also have lots of decisions to make in the near future. (Doesn't it seem like I'm always having to make major decisions?)
Well, I'm blastin J.Moss's song "Work that Faith"! O...M...G!! This is like my anthem. It should be yours. "...I'm a do it" "Work that faith" "Won't be down anymore...bound...sad...had anymore". This is our anthem...Time to work our faith...walk in what we believe. If it's impossible, then we believe and KNOW it is possible. Period. The End. Come on, join me. "Work that faith." What good is faith if we don't work it??
Only you an limit your expectation. Seriously. It might take blood, sweat, and sure enough tears but it is possible. Timing may not be according to your schedule but we're not talking about "right now miracles" but what's possible.
Come on, let's spend the next 30 days believing and working our faith.
Love you,
Aurellia

Go through THIS to get to THAT
Hi My Fabulous Gems!! It's been a while since I last shared with you from this blog. Things have been great in my life and the life of my company Hidden Gem. But I have to admit that during this "great" time in my life, there have been some weeds, thorns and thistles. And I have fought against having to experience the pain of walking through that environment. But the Word of God came to me this morning and said, "You have to go through this to get to that." Immediately my mind went to an image that drove the point home.
It's like when you're walking along a path in the forest and you notice something beautiful in the distance that you'd like to get closer to see and experience. As you begin your journey to get to that "beautiful something", you notice that there is a patch of dry grass filled with thorny stickers and weeds. You look for other places along the path to step but there are none. Only this thorny, painful part.
That is our journey sometimes. We are made aware of our own beautiful something in the distance-career achievement, better relationship, financial prosperity, weight loss, advanced academic degree. But along the journey there are issues that must be dealt with-applications to complete, self-control, closing doors, sacrifice, healing. We must go through these things (and more) in order to get to those things. Painful as it may be, sometimes we must go through THIS to get to THAT.
Sisters, Go through this time of pruning and refining, this time of hard work and difficulty, this time of tears and frustrations, grief and depravity so that you can get to that place of victory, that place of restoration, that place of joy, that place of prosperity. YES!!
"Nobody told me the road would be easy..."
Blessings,
