Happy New Year!!

Okay, okay.  I realize that today is January 19th so I'm almost through the month of January.  LOL However, I thought I needed to send some positive information out into the universe.  And just update what is going on in my life.

Currently, working on my fourth play titled: "The Men Chronicles".  It's a series of monologues written from a man's perspective or a man's voice.  I know that I am not a man but I am soliciting men to tell me their stories and I am endeavoring to put them down on paper.  I will make sure that I have some men read what I write before I start directing this play.  I really want men's stories to be heard and I want each character to be believable.  Still need to start writing "So You Call Yourself a Man of God?" I have the characters written down but they don't have voices yet. 

I was asked to be apart of a production called "The Zora Tellers".  It's a series of vignettes about the life of Zora Neale Hurston.  I play a small role of Rosalee.  Roslaee is southern,  fiesty, a cusser and strong-willed.. She is a character!!   LOL  I am having fun developing her character and becoming Rosalee.  Been asked to sing and possibly act in March and May.  I don't sing alone ever!!  Usually in a group setting unless I'm in the car or home.  But I made the mistake of singing at an open mike and a friend heard me and now he wants to use me twice!!  Still haven't figured out what to do about it.  I guess I need to talk to him and decide how I can participate, right?  LOL  I guess this is God's way of expanding my territory.  I have read Habakkuk 2:2-3 many, many times.  And on top of that my Pastor finished teaching on spiritual gifts in bible study last night. Pastor said it is a sin to have gifts from God and not to use them. he also said that if you do not use them then it says something about your relationship with One who gave you your gifts.  OUCH!!!   Okay, God.  I will use all of my gifts!!  Thank you for giving them to me and I will use them to glorify you.  I'll keep singing the song I learned this year from Pastor Christina Staton of Empire Christian Center.  "In the atmosphere of your glory, I feel you Lord, pushing me and moving me to where I ought to be".

Lastly, still on weight release journey.  I actually lost 17 pounds last year.  Not my goal but I did lose, praise God.  Trying to get down a dress size by my birthday(February 23rd. Help me, JESUS!!)  and be down 2 dress sizes by May of this year.  Praying that I can do it with God's help.  Leaning hard on Him for help.

Also, follow me on twitter jerseygirlp@twiiter.com and also check out a wonderful group of women who are glorifying God and building up women.  It's called Girlfriends Pray.  They are on Facebook and Twitter.  You can call in every morning and evening for prayer six days a week.  I really am enjoying the prayer at 7:00am each morning.  Their number is 1-712-432-0075  access number 128845

I also need prayer for my health.  Trying to get info a potential health issue as well as maintain my lung health with my asthma and allergy issues.  Pray for healing restoration and mostly WHOLENESS!!  I also need the energy and stamina to do all that God has called me to do.

Blessings!
