Re: Assertive or pushy?

This is idiotic. The bottom line is when women show assertiveness they are called pushy. When men show assertiveness they are considered to be showing leadership qualities. Don't give in to cultural BS.

Re: Shame: Part 1

Thanks for sharing. I don't think I have ever really known shame quite this way, but I know that many of the men that we ministered to with the music at star of hope and open door have known shame. And sometimes more than doing the music I like to just go around and shake their hands and talk to them and let them know how much God loves them. He loves them no matter what they've done or who they may have done it to and in the case of this woman didn't do anything at all just happen to be with the wrong people in the wrong place. And how true no matter what nothing can separate us from the father once we receive Jesus Christ.

What a sweet privilege to "climb into the branches of His love and care and find rest, security and purpose." I simply love that. Thank you for blogging.

Amy, all of the ways that you described your mother, is how I have always thought of you. She invested in you and you are carrying on her legacy. What a rich blessing to pass on to your children and be a blessing to others. I understand that grief is normal and you will get to the point of celebrating the blessing her life has been. Your life and the lives of others are richer because of who she was in the Lord! Thanks for sharing!

This is so like my journey of the last many years, years of great difficulty and yet, also, years of knowing Him in a vastly deeper and more profound way. I am trusting Him to guide my steps in the coming days. May God bless you and your family in the grand adventure He has set before you.

Re: Time to fly

Hi Amy,
It's been a long time since I have had the chance to stop and look around my day to day life. I have been lost in translation in my life and I seem to be stuck in the pits of everydayness. However for some reason I awoke about 5am and thought I would check out my facebook page as I watched the sun break the darkness outside my window while sipping on a outstandingly good cup of coffee. Anyway one look on my fb page lead me to another page and another link and then I say your time to fly link on a friend's page. Like I said, its been a long time since I had peaked at your web page and I felt I was long over due to do so.
Time to Fly was like a shot in the arm for me. I realized that your time to fly was really more about seasons and that was when it hit home for me. I realized that I have been going through a rapid series of time to fly in my life one after another, just like the seasons of the weather comes and goes one after another. I guess like everyone else I do like to hold on to some seasons as tight as I can because for me change is so hard. I run from it, I fight against it, I do everything I can to avoid it. Some of my seasons I have really enjoyed, as a matter of fact, I loved them. It's kind of like looking at you children all grown up and although you are so very proud and love them, you sometime think of past seasons and think to yourself of the season when they were such a beautiful sweet little baby looking up at you with such awe with that to die for toothless grin. God you gotta love that time right?
I know seasons are a part of life and we all have them and go through them. However, I guess I am getting old and I don't like the seasons to change so fast, I need time to. The season at HNW, the season with my career, the season in my walk with God, the season with the passing of my mother, the season with my income, the season with my age and health all within a few years. Come on now, I am just trying to hang on and these many season coming and going so quickly is blowing my slow season mind.
But I will do the beat I can and try to remember it like you so perfectly outlineed in your Time to Fly.
Thanks
fc

Oh, how I wish I could have seen you in red and flashy scarf and shoes! I'm sure you looked great! I recently bought some snake-like shoes thinking they would be stylish and fun. I was told from the men in my life that they looked evil and I should return them immediately! Ha! Just goes to show that we don't dress for the men in our life, it's for our girlfriends!! Although, you have a special young man in your life who appreciates your flare!
