“V”s Views on Blogging

Absence does make the heart grow fonder.” The preceding statement above is the reason why I stopped Blogging on my sites more than every month as I now do. I also found that looonnggg Blogs were unpopular. So instead of not getting any ‘comments’ or ‘kudos’ from anyone reading my works – I decided to put some of my extended works in paperback. This is just a thought that doesn’t really need a kudo or a reply.

Pursue You Dreams. Give forth what God would have for YOU to deliver & Please Be Blessed & Continue to Be Inspired.

TRUST – BELIEVE - RECEIVE

Below is a prayer that our Pastor Bishop George Davis gave to our church family; Faith Christian Center, www.fccjax.com on Jan. 15, 2009.
My belief is that it will benefit anyone who can take the time to believe on Him.

“RECESSION FREE…LIVING IN VICTORY”
1.15.09
“As the Seed of Abraham I am blessed by God through the Blood of Jesus Christ! The most valuable possession ever, was paid to cancel out every sin, sickness, pain, debt, depression, and obstruction that I could ever face.

As a believer, I CHOOSE not to participate in this earthly recession. Instead I CHOOSE abundance, overflow, and increase in the face of a worldwide economic crisis. I DECLARE that all of my needs are met. I am free from debt. And, I have sooooo much more to put in store. I DECLARE that I won’t live in a place called ‘lack’. Instead, I live on Increase Boulevard where there is no need He can’t supply. My God took care of Isaac in a time of famine and He’s doing the same for me. He provided for Israel in a wilderness and He’s doing the same for me. I expect to do better during this season than any other season of my life. And, I promise that I will shine forth the Glory of God to let a dark world know that my God is the Most High God.

I am filled with the Glory of God. Therefore, I outshine any darkness that persists in the world around me. Since my blessings do not originate from this earth, I am not bound to prosper nor receive according to what this earth dictates. My God supplies all my needs according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus. I am Blessed!! I CHOOSE to receive God’s best. I CHOOSE to live for God, because He is my source and not this world. I CHOOSE life and not death. I CHOOSE to overcome every situation that arises by leaps and bounds. I DOMINATE!! I CHOOSE to dream and achieve according to my faith. Sorry looks back; worry looks around; but as a Blood-Bought member of the body of Christ, I CHOOSE to look up to the most High God. As the blessed of the Lord, I CHOOSE to win at all times in Jesus’ Name!! Amen and So Be It!!”

We all are in areas or degrees of blessing fulfillment. We all are expecting (or should be) whatever it is that we have asked God for. My charge to you is: “Never give up – Never surrender (to the devil) [Yes, that was part of a line from a movie]. All you have to do is hang out, do what you need to do and TBR.

Love of Christ,
Ms. “V”

Happy What?

Today is January 10, 2009. It is only ten days since we welcomed in the New Year. So why is it that no one says, “Happy New Year” anymore? On January first and maybe on the second, we bid each other a prosperous look towards the future. Well, why not continue to bestow greetings of great expectations until maybe “Happy Valentines Day rolls around?

Try it! Continue to say, “Happy New Year” to the grocery clerk, to your doctor, to your hairdresser & manicurist and yes, even to someone you don’t know who passes you by in the street or up a WalMart aisle. You will be amused to see the smiles and maybe a few puzzled looks of confusion and the surprised, “I can say Happy New Year this late in Jan. It’s alright”.

Happy New Year Ya’ll

Even though the world is in a “recession”, we as Christian believers, have no connection with it. Continue to pray for those who do not know Christ and all that He does for us. Amen!

(Instead of weekly Blogs – Please feel free to view my archive Blogs on my Myspace, Shoutlife, Writers Interrupted, My Word Of Faith or www.victoriapoller.com . My two books will be released soon and I will continue to Blog occasionally with thoughts from above – Stay tuned.)

Welcome Little One

“She smells so good!” I can put Johnson’s Baby lotion ™ on me and ‘blah’, but on Serenity it is better than any of my fine expensive perfumes. Having a baby around again is so sweet.
Serenity Danielle is our first grandchild and she is a blessing from our Lord. She’s only a little over a week old but she’s such an advanced child and I’m not being prejudice. This baby took to breast feeding as if it was her only means of nourishment (oops – it is ;). I know that people brag about their children and grandchildren, but she ‘coos’ instead of crys. Her disposition is very peaceful as her name implies. We’ve only seen a tear in her eyes a couple of times and the problem be it poop, pee, a bubble, or a need to snuggle – she’s the focus at that time. No, I am not yearning for another child myself (no Immaculate Conception here) because I am thankful that my factory is still closed while the playground remains open.

Well, I must get back to (or should I say that, “I desire to get back to”) my writing and having a baby in the home is a soothing, calming experience to the spirit, soul and body. Enjoy your pre-holiday festivities and stay Blessed to Be a Bigger Blessing.

Family Addition

Our church family (Faith Christian Center in Jacksonville, Fl.) has designated 2008 to be the year of the “Fullness of the Blessing”.

Our most recent blessing is our Grand daughter:

Serenity Danielle
(Peaceful Disposition – God is my only judge)

Born on Friday November 28, 2008; weighing in at 6 lbs-10 oz. and measuring 19.5 in. in length. She received a perfect “10” on her “Apgar” score (see www.ask.com ).

Please click on the Kodak site below to see some pics.
Serenity Danielle's Pictures

Tonya and baby are doing great. They will stay in Jacksonville, Fl. with grandparents and great-grandparents for a little while. If you would like to see more pictures and read her Blog, go to my myspace page (via. Ms."V" website) and click on Tonya’s page.

Thank you for all of your prayers and gifts (Hey Loretta, Vanessa, JR. and her Largo friends). God has been so good to us and you’ll find out more when you read my next book.

My books are still a priority, but they had to be pushed back a little (still aiming for 2008 – it ain’t over yet ;)

Have a great week and I will check my websites at least once a week. If you need me sooner, please email me direct or go directly to my website.

Trust – Believe - Receive

Happy Thanksgiving

Greetings Everyone,

Just couldn't stay away without letting you know that Jesus was thinking of you today and so was I.
Have a blessed holy day (yes, I did say holy :)

Continue to Be Blessed in order to Be a Bigger Blessing

Greetings ;)

If you’re reading this, then you are one of my faithful reading partners. I have enjoyed sharing the thoughts that I’ve been inspired to give to you. My hopes are that they were a help and not a hindrance.

Since my Granddaughter is due around the end of the month, and we’re getting ready to launch two books; I won’t be posting my Blog every week. I will continue to answer your questions as I have (it may take me a little longer, but I’m faithful). You will still be able to view my Archive Blogs on all my sites, especially my website (and I’ll add more from the ones that were posted on Myspace) Ms. V's website

Please keep coming to my website and you’ll know when & where to get my new books (and you’ll be impressed with the material ;) Stay in touch and know that you’re never a bother. Have a Great Thanksgiving, and a very Merry Christmas and I’ll hopefully see you at one of my book signing. Remember, Jesus is thinking of you and so am I.

“And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Phil. 4:7

Yours in Christ,

“Excuse Me, No, Excuse Me”

As we eagerly embrace this holiday season, let’s take a look at some things around us, and how we may diffuse (put out) fires before they ever start.

“Let’s go shopping”. A whole book can be written about the etiquette of the retail world. Allow me to begin with space. There are crowds everywhere; the malls, the grocery store, restaurants, and even in the street. People are seeking bargains and the “GI Joe with the Kung Fu grip” (did they ever make such a toy?). Money may be tight, problems still find their way into our lives, but we’ve got to remember that it’s the main season for caring, thoughtfulness and love. Yes, it is Jesus’ birthday and He is the reason for the season. With that being said, let me help you a little bit.

Shopping can be a ruthless job. If there’s only one size 10 red sweater in that particular style, and you & Ms. Molly have your hands on it – give it to Ms. Molly because God’s got a better sweater for you at a lower price and at a different store.

If you have time, I’ve posted three pics on my page, about this next subject, “Crowded stores, strollers & shopping carts (see Childless Wheels). What’s this all about you ask? It’s about children being carried by their Mama’s and their strollers are being pushed into your path - if not over your toes. When there are large crowds in tight places, please be thoughtful. If you have a need to get out of the house with your children, please feed them, put them down for a nap and make sure they know that they’re not going to the playground, but to a store. Remind me later to talk about Massachuttes and how they want to abolish parents spanking their children.

For all of my fellow salespeople, this one’s for you. Stores do not have built-in “maids”. If you take clothes into a dressing room, don’t throw the clothes on the floor. Hang them back on the hanger. The salesperson is not your Mama, Wife or Flunkey. And please, treat the salesperson the way you would want to be treated. Be Kind.

You’ve probably heard about this one in church; be considerate when you drive. Watch out for the other person. Drive defensively! Leave early and take your time. You are probably just as surprised as I am to notice how many people’s turn signals don’t work. Pray that those persons get new bulbs for those lights and that they’ll begin to use that little lever on the steering wheel.

So until next week, let’s keep the phrase, “Merry Christmas” flowing in the air. Love ya’ll.

“We’re Just So Thankful”

Give Thanks with a grateful heart
Give Thanks to the Holy One
Give Thanks because He’s given
Jesus Christ, His Son.

And now let the weak say, “I am strong”.
Let the poor say, “I am rich because of what the Lord has done for us”. Give Thanks.
By Henry Smith

We need to take the time just to say, “Thank you”. “Thank You Jesus”. Thank God for sending Georgia the rain it needed (II Ch. 7:14). Thanks to Lady who always smiles at you and say, “Good Morning”. Thanks to Your Spouse for putting up with you (I didn’t call any names). Thanks to that person who blessed you when you didn’t expect it. The list should be endless. Let’s take some time each and every day to “Give Thanks”. THANKS-DANKE-MERCI-GRACIAS

Traditionalism

“You have to begin today to create your own past”. A pronounce, but true statement: Every day you can choose how your history will read in the future; to your children and to others who you influence.

It’s alright if you choose to use Aunt Trudy’s recipe for stuffing, and it will still be Thanksgiving if there’s no ham, but you can also start your own way of doing things (it would just be un-American not to have a turkey). Dare to be different and make a positive difference. 

“God has promised it, we’re standing on His Word. We thank God continually for our FAITH in Him, and all that He has done”.

Thanks to everyone who gave a comment to last week’s blog. It was a great response on all the blogging sites that I post to.
