Going to Church

What is so hard to understand?  Why are people pressing me to go against my own conscience? I am talking about using  a taxi cab in which I have no peace.  Recently, I try to tell my friends  my situation. All I want is prayer  and not advice!  Yet when I open my mouth not one person can say the right thing like I will pray God will make a way for you."  I am putting my trust in him. IN GOD not in people not in taxi can drivers.  I never did trust them. I don't know why. I just don't. However, if God sends one to us, then it would be of him not on my own strength. My heart cries because people just don't see it! They don't just understand. How can they? The majority of them have transportation! They don't  have to  depend on a  taxi cab to take them, Can not God honor my prayer? Does he not speak to people's hearts or does he expect us to do it ourselves. "I provide you a cab, Ruthie. I have even told two of them to tell you, but you will not listen."?  Many people will offer you advice, but it may not be a Godly one.  My Spirit did not rise up within me and say there is your answer! Once again, frustration sets in and so I will say no more. God knows not people.

    I am praying someone offers you a ride to church, it is expensive, and can be dangerous taking a cab, especially for women, so I am going to pray that this situation is resolved...

Living with Alzheimer

No, I don't have Alzheimer, my mother does.  Although for a long time I didn't know this. I believe the disease was there when my father was alive but the disease had lain dormant. Why? I don't know, but the disease triggered in her brain soon after his death. Just recently, my sister told me it began shortly after she stopped going to the senior nutrition center All my life, I had this picture of healthy parents. I thought God would make sure none of my parents would  ever have Cancer or Alzheimer. I thought it would never happen to us! I'm sure many people thought that, but our (My sister and my  situation sis different. If you disagree feel free to comment below) My sister and I have never had a chance to leave home. I think that  it is because I had a mindset that kept me hostage. My sister had her reasons. My father made her an underpaid housekeeper and I went off to  college,  and going to find work where ever I can only to end up back home. After I graduated

January 13, 2012.  Two days after I have found out from my friend and also author Michelle that my book was finally published.  I have prayed it would not take 6-8 months. I asked for God's favor and I got it or so I thought.  It  is my first time to  have a book published and therefore I am new at all that is expected. When I told Michelle  about my prayer being answered, she bursted my bubble: "Yes, it took me  six weeks too to get my first book published." Oh well My life has changed since she told me and even posted on my wall that my book is for sale now. Wow! I am finally an author! Do I feel any different? Some. Now I have questions. How do I begin to let people know. I am rather shy at talking to people on phones and I also do not know when I should do it (have a book signing event) If it is true that I might have to"supply" the books, I need to get  them at a discount. I also need to call Barnes and Noble and see if they will let me do it.  When I ca

Hanford's Hidden Treasure

Image
I don't see myself as a nobody. I know who I am in the eyes of God. I am somebody special, I am an author. You didn't know that? Well, no wonder! Because businesses won't let you know about me!  I tried to let the people of Hanford know they have an author in town. I had my first book signing in a library a couple years ago. Perhaps you didn't  read the paper that week. You know what? That is okay. I got what I wanted even though after the local paper featured me in the paper, no one asked me about it. Let's go back many years ago when I was in high school. Was I popular? No. Was I accepted? Maybe. Maybe not. I got teased a lot. I didn't have many friends. Thanks God, my self esteem wasn't based on what my peers thought about me. I knew I didn't fit in according to their standards. I am an adult now. I thought maybe things have changed. Many of the people who weren't my friends in High School are now. It isn't my peers that is making me feel
