Experienced a storm on top of a blessing...

So as I always mention life for me is up and down with the things that I go through daily. I still chose to find some type of wonderful even when I maybe down. We are all humans and we can hurt, stress and worry even when we try to be so hard and strong. For the most part I have been learning to really be patient and wait on the Lord to guide me in every aspect of my life.

We can't continue to stress over the things that we can't change. We don't have the power to make any type of Godly changes because we are only human. Even when we plan things it still comes out twisted and turned around in ways you never thought it could go. That is where you simple sit back and say..ok that's life!

I have set up plans to make monthly payments for my medical bills. Called and let them know I would be making a payment on a certain day and then was not able to. No I don't have bad credit but yes I fear one of my bills will hit my credit and mess up my plan to get a home loan so I can purchase my first house in a few months.

Things came up and plans changed to where I could not even attempt to make a payment on any of those planned medical bills. Yes I stay proactive and called each one to let them know that I just simply don't have it. I'm putting forth the effort to make contact with them to let them know I'm a honest person and am trying very hard to pay my debt. I JUST DON'T HAVE IT!

In life we make so many plans and we just can't do EVERYTHING. My lights where on the verge of getting cut off. My mother blessed me to pay some of that bill. All in Jesus name. I am able to see and have lights and heat in this cold winter. God worked that out and my mom just happened to be going to pay her light bill that day.

My Father bought me groceries so I could have nourishment for my body all in Jesus name. God made this possible. I just so happened to pick up a ad to Kroger yesterday only wishing I had enough money to catch the latest sells. Then my dad called and let me know he was coming down to take me to the store. My heart filled with joy because I knew that God did that.

God has really came into my life without any kind of plan on my part. He just did it. This was beyond my wildest desires. God knows what I need more than what I may want. I had a gift card that I was able to use for household supplies.

I have a ride to work everyday. I am just so blessed. Even though I constantly battle different types of depression, stress, and just the experience of LIFE. I know that deep inside there is always a better plan in the spirit of my FATHER in HEAVEN. With that I give God so much praise. He has done so much for me and I know this is not the end. I am so humbled by his works and I know God works through people.

Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
Just know that sometimes in life things don't always go as planned but know that God will give you the desires of your heart. He has the ultimate plan and when one thing falls down God will pour you out a blessing by his design. You have to place it upon Gods will. I hope this has touched someone. I am a real human being and I struggle just like everyone else does in the world but I hold on to my faith because I know God is not finished with me yet.

He is the GREAT I AM! I hope everyone has a blessed night in Jesus name may you lay your troubles with God and know that he will take care of it. Let him be the MASTER in your PLAN.

New Journey-Out Reaching- RE-introduction

You ever had the desire or feeling to want to do a good thing for someone? Well I do right now. Well if you don't know already why I created this blog I am going to re-introduce myself. Are you ready. Drum roll please!!!!

My Mission-

To out-reach to the world to let them know the Power of Jesus Christ, to know his word and keep it forever in our hearts. Sharing life experiences dealing with every aspect of life and more. Out-reaching to help others in the world be something wonderful through God's understanding and not your own.

Hello world. I hope this reaches you at a blessed point in your life. My name is Zaundra. I am 28 years old and I love to write and inspire others. I am the founder and creator of this new organization called  "Thee Life Experience" My mission in life is to connect with other people around the world to share the word of God with them.

I thought I would come up with an organization/a new blog for the new year and try to stay as consistent as I can. Over the past couple of years I have created different blogs geared to women for support of us but this time I wanted to create a blog reaching out to everyone in the world no matter where you come from or what gender, age or race. I love all people. This is not only a blog this is a movement within itself. To reach out to others around the world for people in need of help in the many aspects of life.

Life is a experience and we all go through different things every day and I thought I would share some things to the world from every aspect of life the bitter and the sweet and the things you may not want to hear. All to help you and others that maybe in need of inspiration.

This is a place where you can come for inspiration and be able to get connected with others that maybe going through some of the same things you go through. This is a Christian group for all of the believers of Christ and know that God sent his only Son for us.

This is a out-reach support group for people in need of acceptance no matter what is troubling you. We have a great support team that assist people all over the world if you are in need of encouragement or help. I don't ever want to limit myself to what I can help people with because it's all in GODS hands and control.

I have learned to be open minded over the years and be open to listen to others for reasons of being able to learn from others. You never know what a person is going through beside you and I just want to be a ear to listen to others and be of assistance to others.

I will be reaching out to people soon creating different out- reaches and just trying to do some other things in the world to help others. Our first project will be to create care packages for the needy and homeless in OUR COMMUNITY!

I don't have a lot and struggle just like others on a daily basis but I want to try to be a better Christian and American and help others in need as well. So come on in and watch and see growth within myself and find your place in "The Life Experience".

Want to be apart of this?
-Sharing stories on how God has changed your life and others around you. Well this is something I want to share and inspire to everyone. It's all apart of Gods love and true family to create unity! PHIL 4:13

-If you would like to help support this out-reach please email me. I would be happy to send you some information or give you a phone call. We don't ask for money only if you feel in your heart you would like to help this new organization it would be a blessing. I plan to gather life experience care packages together to send out and hand out to the HOMELESS, ELDERLY and People just in need of help.

I do believe some people are out here homeless by choice and  a lot for reasons they may not be able to control. My youngest Uncle is out on the streets and I would love to bring him home to help him but we have not heard from him and have been trying to find him. I would hope that he can meet great Christians to encourage him as well. God Bless You all!

Resist the devil, and he will flee from you

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7 Speak up to the devil in the name of Jesus. "Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." Jesus said, "I am with you [always]."

I had so many plans for the new year. Brought out my one year Bible to read, been prayerful and planning to build and everlasting foundation with Christ. Saturday I began to vomit, chills, body aches with headache, feeling weak and helpless. Sunday I started to feel a little better then Monday Fever, chills and the same painful symptoms raised again. All of this had me sleeping, and not being able to do what I have been planning due to feeling and being so weak. I learned I had a stomach virus with other Asthma issues as usual. The further I get behind in the word the devil tries to say it will be to much for me and I will never finish reading the bible or doing the meditation that I have planned.

He makes you try to disconnect your self away from you plans, life, and mostly Christ. I refuse to let the devil steal my desire, plans, life or meditation and love for Christ. The devil can not heal me, protect me or give me the desires of my heart so why do we let him control and get in our mind at times. I rebuke satin in the name of JESUS. I will read my daily scriptures and the ones I have missed reading. I will go on with my plans without any more hesitation because God is working on my body and providing me the desires of my heart. God will never leave or forsake me and with that being said I will never stop trying hard at what I know I need to do in my life. God has a plan for me and I am on the road and will continue to follow the path he has created for me to follow.

In life things will not always be the way we want them to be or plan them to be. We can't live by our understandings but we have to live by God's understandings and what he has for us. I will continue to move forward in Christ. I just wanted to share this message with you all. I do need to rest my body so I can have a full recovery and feel better for work Thursday. God bless you all. Oh by the way. I found 2 really nice Christian networks that I joined recently.

I am so excited to meet new friends and more so just humble Christians that accept all people no matter what.

Daily Inspiration-January 1st-2nd

Today my Dad came down which was refreshing. He brought a book to my attention of Smith Wigglesworth which was a man who served God and laid hands of healing upon people. I was touched by the stories and his power that God gave him. I wanted to share some quotes by him and also other people that spread the word of God. Enjoy! There are four principles we need to maintain: First, read the Word of God. Second, consume the Word of God until it consumes you. Third believe the Word of God. Fourth, act on the Word." Smith Wigglesworth-   Saturday, January 01, 2011 You Need God's Power to Change by Rick Warren I've tried everything and nothing helps. I'm at the end of my rope. Is there no one who can do anything for me? Isn't that the real question? Romans 7:24 (MSG) "The very fact that God sent a Savior means you need one." Have you figured out yet that a lot of times you are your own worst enemy?  It's your own reactions, your own fears, your own inadequacies that cause you to act in foolish ways. I know that's true for me. I need to be saved from myself because there are things I don't like about me - things I wish I had done differently, things I'd like to change. But I can't change them, not on my own power. I need an outside power source.  You may be saying, "I can change." I hate to say this, but you can't. Every year about this time, we make a list of New Year's resolutions. But, by the end of January, that list will be in the dumpster. Why? Because you can't change on your own; you need God's power. You need a Savior, someone who can make the changes you can't make yourself.  Let me make an important point here: God never wastes energy. He doesn't waste effort on things that are unnecessary. In other words, if you didn't need a Savior, he wouldn't have sent one. The very fact that God sent a Savior means you need one. The truth is, if you are honest about it, sometimes you feel like your life is out of control. That's a pretty common feeling. Welcome to the human race!  The apostle Paul felt that way 2,000 years ago. Paul says this in the Bible: "I've tried everything and nothing helps. I'm at the end of my rope. Is there no one who can do anything for me? The answer, thank God, is that Jesus Christ can and does" (Romans 7:24-25 MSG).That's the answer! You may be looking for salvation in the wrong places, that's why you're frustrated. You're looking for that one thing that's going to give you fulfillment and meaning and peace in life.  Some of us think that if we could just get married, or if we could just get a certain job, or a promotion, or attain a certain level of wealth, or have a baby - or if our babies would grow up and graduate! - things would be great. You're looking in the wrong places. The answer is not in a place. It's not in a program or a pill. The answer is a person: Jesus Christ. You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life is never going to make sense.  A Resolution Worth Keeping by Jon Walker

For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 1 Corinthians 2:2 (NIV) (This devotional is by Jon Walker, editor of the Daily Hope Devotionals  and author of Costly Grace: A Contemporary View of Bonhoeffer's 'The Cost of Discipleship.') Today you may be thinking about New Year's resolutions? You know, those lists we make with two scoops of optimistic enthusiasm, sprinkled with unrealistic expectations, and topped with the cherry of knowing the list isn't serious anyway. But there is one guy who I suspect played for keeps when he made New Year's resolutions -- that zealot who could never do anything halfway, the let's-get-real-about-our-faith apostle Paul. My thought is Paul only had one resolution on his New Year's list: "This year I resolve to know nothing but Christ and him crucified" (1 Corinthians 2:2). Paul's message is radically simple: Salvation is in Christ alone. What does this mean? It's not Christ plus your good behavior. It's not Christ plus the years you taught a Bible study. It's not Christ plus your tithe. It's not Christ plus the church you attend. It's not Christ plus the number of verses you memorize. It's not Christ plus your title in the church. It's not Christ plus wisdom from the latest Christian seminar. It's not Christ plus a desert fast (or even a dessert fast!). It's not Christ plus a good driving record. It's not Christ plus well-behaved children. It's not Christ plus the right job. It's not Christ plus the right spouse. It's not Christ plus the latest technology. It's simply Christ. Christ plus nothing.  That's Paul's message, a message that is as right throughout 2011 as it will be in 2999. May your resolution for this year be nothing but Christ and Him crucified.
