Privileged!!!



Privileged!!!  

That is the word that came to me as I sat in the presence of God under the soul stirring voice of Tamela Mann last night.

I was blessed to receive a ticket to this concert. And wow! I was encouraged. That is what Mrs. Mann did for me.

I sat in the Convention Center and was reminded that there is no sweeter divine atmosphere than one in God’s presence. I think I sometimes take His presence for granted during church services. No more.

To sit in His presence is not a right. It is a privilege. God is merciful and has taken a little girl from Brooklyn.
I am one that has come from a line of alcoholics, one whose Grandfather did not attend school, let alone learn how to read, and one whose Mother did not graduate from high school.

God has allowed me to attain a college education. He has designed me and fashioned me after His own heart. Like my heavenly Father, I am an author/writer/novelist. Privileged.

This is not my right. He has assigned me the task, given me the gifts, however. It is now my obligation to do so. To do what I must do.

Remember, you are privileged. Remember your journey. Remember your obligation.

You owe it to yourself and those surrounding you.

Remember.

Love, Grace and Peace,
