Gossip Girl Season 4 on DVD

Summer vacations are always a blast. In Season 4, ep. 1 Belles de Jour, Serena and Blair enjoy their summer vacation in Paris trying to take their minds off of home. When Serena and Blair take this lavish trip to Paris, they experience the food, culture, fashion, and even romance! Blair meets a French royal that wants to sweep her off her feet, gets into a major spat with Serena, and even bumps into her ex, Chuck. Trips are always full of excitement and let downs.

SO where's your dream vacation to?

Me? I'd love to explore Greece. The architecture alone is enough to pull me in...


The blue water...there's just something so peaceful about this country. I absolutely LOVE Greek food! Feta makes everything betta :) So to be able to indulge in traditional, authentic Greek food would be awesome. Plus, I heard the Greek men are gorgeous! To get away and to ride on a scooter and learn their culture and history, that's my dream vacation. I love places where I can not only relax, but I can learn something too. Who knows, maybe I'll meet my Prince in Greece too, just like Blair!

Too busy for a summer vacation? Join Serena and Blair in Paris with Season 4 of Gossip Girl

Daily Devotion for 9/12/11 It happens in stages

Good Afternoon Everyone! Happy Monday :) I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend. I just want to send out a huge thank you to all of you who joined with me in prayer on Friday Afternoon. He heard our cries and instantly he smiled on us, evident by the sun that shone so bright for the rest of the week and weekend.

Today's Topic: It happens in stages
Scripture Text: Mark 4:28

"First the blade, then the head, after that the full grain."

Are you waiting on a promise from God to be fulfilled? Observe these words of Jesus: "The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come. (Mark 4:26-29) You have to go through certain stages before you receive that which God has promised you.

The "I don't know" stage: This is when the seed is in the ground. The harvest production is up to God entirely. But God's word is assuring so believe him for it!

The "Blade" stage: A tiny blade blowing in the breeze. It is enough to encourage you and let you know that the answer is on the way!

The "Head" stage: It starts to look like what you prayed for. It's something that you hopefully have prayed over it, that's the water. You use God's word to fertilize it and you protect it from any negative force that may try and uproot it.

Finally, The "full grain" stage: This is when God says "Put in the sickle, because your harvest has come". At this point it is crucial to recognize your harvest and begin to reap it. No matter what stage you are at today, stand on God's promise and keep trusting Him. He will not disappoint you!.

Peace and Love Family

Daily Devotion for 9/9/11 Let us Pray

Good Morning Everyone! For those of you who have never received a Daily Devotion Email from me, or read this blog, there's a purpose and reason behind it today...

I'd like to send out a petition to all of you and ask that you send it out to your friends and family as well. Post it on twitter and facebook.

Today is a perfect day for Corporate Prayer.




I'd like everyone to break what they are doing at 1 p.m. and go in to prayer. God has really been moving and trying to show us some things these last couple of weeks and we all need to be alert and hear from him. In the course of a week and a half, we here in the DMV have dealt with an earthquake, Hurricane, Tropical Depression, Tornadoes, and most recently, flooding. You don't think God is trying to tell us something? I was speaking with a friend of mine in ministry and he was talking about how God is now preaching the sermons. How real is that?

There have been a number of deaths contributed to this weather and now we are under a huge security alert with the anniversary of 9/11 approaching. I'm not worried about a thing though because like the word says in 2 Timothy 1:7 "God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of love, power, and a sound mind" When we stir up these gifts, there's nothing that we can't get through. I don't operate in fear, I operate in FAITH!!

So let us all take a few minutes out of our day today at 1 p.m. and go in to prayer. Pray for our nation, our President, our area (DMV or wherever you are), our family, our friends, and ourselves. Pray for peace, security, strength and faith. I pray that you all will join me in this.

I'll be praying at 1 p.m., will you?

Peace and Love Family!

Blog Post: Gossip Girl

From the first time I started watching GG, I fell in love with Serena's character. I saw a little bit of myself in her. The things she's been through, the romance...plus, I wanted her closet ;) During Season 4, she went through so many ups and downs. As usual, it always seemed like people were against her. I would hate to be in the same position as her with having to choose for love. That's one of the hardest decisions. I've been there before and the outcome was not pretty because someone always ends up getting hurt.

Its hard to choose a favorite episode...Any episode where Blair pulls off some elaborate scheme against someone is always good to me.

That's why Season 4 was so amazing!! It was full of scandal, heartbreak, break-ups, break-downs. GG touches on sooo much in this season. Do you have your copy? 22 episodes...what are you waiting for??

Daily Devotion for 9/7/11 It's A New Season

Good Morning Folks...Happy Rainy Wednesday!

Today's Topic: It's a new season!
Scripture Text: Leveticus 26:4

"I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees their fruit."

It has been a very rainy season the past few weeks here in the DMV. What does it all mean? What does rain mean to you? When I was in conversation with a friend about the rain they said, "It's so depressing" I replied "No, I just see it as God washing away some things" Out with the old and in with the new. Rain plays such a significant role in the life and well being of the earth, yet we as humans have a found a way to make it be so negative. We often times forget that after every rain storm is a rainbow.

So what are you saying Leslie? What I'm saying is this. There's a reason for this rainy season. While God is washing away old things in the physical ask yourself, what is God trying to wash away within me? What is it in my life that God is trying to add a fresh anointing to? "I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees their fruit." What new things is God trying to grow in and/or through you? Don't look at this rainy season as a depressing one. Instead take the time to commune with God and find out what it is that he's trying to show you. It's a new season folks!

Think about this: God has given us all gifts and there are things that were predestined over our lives. God has given us a seed to sew but that seed can't grow without any rain. God is calling us! It's our season to sew seeds to let it rain and to watch it grow. It's a new season...God wants to start something new and he's starting with YOU. Yes YOU! So I want you to listen to the song that's attached. It's a new season...A season of prosperity, a season of blessings, a season of power...No, everything may not be good during this season but when you do that which God has asked of you, and you allow him to show up and show out....Oh how sweet it is

Isaiah 30:23
He will also send you rain for the seed you sow in the ground, and the food that comes from the land will be rich and plentiful. In that day your cattle will graze in broad meadows.

What does God need you to do in the new season?

Daily Devotion for 9/6/11 Your Joy Is Your Strength

Good Morning Everyone!!! Happy 1st Day of School to all my teachers and students in VA! I pray that you all have a wonderful and exciting day! Here is today's devotion...

">Today's Topic: Your Joy Is Your Strength
Scripture Text: 1 Peter 1:8

“Though you have not seen Him, you love Him; and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy”
(1 Peter 1:8, NIV)

Have you recently lost your joy? Have you recently experienced something has you wanting to give up and quit? What is it that you are allowing to take your joy away? It's time to take back that which the devil is trying to steal from you. There is a reason for every thing we go through and a reason behind every place that we are in. God knows what he is doing. So fight back! The devil is sitting by waiting for the moment to seep in and steal your joy. Don't let him! Your joy is your strength! It is the fuel you need to fight through every trial, tribulation, and circumstance that you are dealing with and going through. Be not afraid, God is always standing by...There's strength and joy in that alone.

So today, stand up and say "Devil you can't steal my joy" Your joy is your source of peace through hard times. It is what sustains you and builds you up. With joy, you can fight any battle and WIN! It's a source of healing for your mind and soul. Your joy not only strengthens you, but others around you. It's encouragement for others that may be going through. It's a light that shines so bright that others see it, and want it too.

So let go of the defeated mentality...Today is the day to get your joy back!!

Keep Fighting Friends and Family!!

I love you and I'm here for you!

Daily Devotion for 9/1/11 Your Time Is Coming

Good Morning folks!! Today's lesson was taken from Joel Osteen's daily devotional...

Today's Topic: Your Time is Coming

Today’s Scripture: Habbakkuk 2:3

“For the vision is yet for an appointed time…though it tarry, wait for it.”
(Habakkuk 2:3, KJV)

Today’s Word:

If you’ve been standing in faith for the promises of God, I want you to know today that your time is coming! The dreams and desires in your heart, the things you want to accomplish, the situations you want to see changed will happen. Don’t give up just because it has taken a long time, or just because you’ve tried and failed.

I encourage you today—get your fire back! Don’t be complacent about pursuing what God has placed in your heart. It may be taking a long time, but God is a faithful God. No matter how long it’s been, no matter how impossible it looks, if you’ll stay in faith, your time is coming. Every dream that’s in your heart, every promise that has taken root, God not only put it there, but He has every intention of bringing it to pass.

Declare today, “My time is coming...God is working behind the scenes on my behalf…I will fulfill my destiny…I will fulfill the plan God has for my life!” As you declare, expect, and wait for the appointed time, your faith will grow. Your hope will grow. And you’ll step into the destiny God has in store for you!

Prayer for Today:

Father in Heaven, I receive Your truth today and hold on to Your promises. I ask that You ignite my heart with Your holy fire so that I can pursue Your perfect plan for my life. Make my thoughts and words agreeable to Your will as I meditate on Your Word. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Be Blessed Family!!!
