What Do I Do Now? "Follow Me."

Last week my that girl marketing website and business email address were swept away into cyberspace...by the spiritual broom of my Father in heaven. It wasn't the first time I experienced problems with my account but this was a tsunami washing away all my emails and addresses! I've had my account hacked and troubled with other problems, but this...?   I awoke one morning to check my email and instead I read my account had an "accountability" error and it could not be found. Really? My website was replaced and my email was non-existent. After a very long day of agonizing over what happened, I was exhausted.

This is a picture of my sweet friend Jamie Williams. Beautiful, isn't she? Well, she's beautiful on the inside, too! She is absolutely driven to invest herself in other people's lives!

Oh, yeah, Jamie is also the founder of Five Talents Wealth Management , a Christ-centered financial planning firm in Canton, GA. She is living what she advises her clients to do: live in accorda...

Last Tuesday morning, January 28, 2014, was once again a delight at our PANCAKES & PRAISE/Totally Devoted gathering @ IHOP in Canton Marketplace. I had just finished sharing a devotion with the ladies when a light dusting of snow began to fall. Since we meet in the IHOP sunroom we had huge windows all around us giving us a wonderful view of the outdoors. We were sharing prayer requests when our server came in and told us a water main broke and there was no running water. Uh-oh. It wasn't totally shocking since the temperatures were below freezing for the past few days...and the day before it was 5 degrees outside! It was probably frozen pipes. We looked at the snow and commented how beautiful it was dusting the grass. We all were aware of the weather forecast of a light dusting. Then one lady noticed it was beginning to stick to the pavement. Hmmmm. What? How could it happen so fast? Hmmm. The snowfall became heavier and we decided to leave. As we passed the che...
