Smoking___To E or not To E

I need to know what you think people!
I just stumbled across an article in the local paper about the e-cigarette. Yes folk, the e-cigarette...you read it right the first time...no joke. Does somebody have like too much time on their hands or what?
This thing is allowed in some places that prohibit regular cigarette smoking and is supposed to be THE alternative for the real cigarette...no smoke, just vapor...no butts, no ashes because it's electronic.
Anybody else foresee a problem here? I do. If it looks like a cigarette then people are going to approach the situation in a non-smoking establishment the same way as usual and assume the person has lit up and should be put out or asked to put it out.
I'm thinking maybe they shouldn't be allowed to smoke that thing in public...those vapors could be bad for your health. What do you think?

God's Favor

Well I haven't written in quite some time and a lot has happened since the last time, but my focus today is God's divine favor and what it has meant to me. I had never understood before when hearing certain people testify about receiving things like cars, houses, money,etc from unknown sources until I tapped into what God's favor really is and without it you'll never work hard enough or live long enough to get the things you dream of without it.

All I can say to anyone reading this is to search the scriptures on "favor", pray and most of all be obedient, never forget where those blessings come from. God is awesome and He has done great things in my life and because of Him, I'm a favor magnet and to Him be the glory, AMEN.

Allow Him to make your life better tomorrow than it is today.

Special day

I was just sitting here and feeling a little happy in a sad kind of way, thinking of the two weddings taking place this weekend. Bittersweet would be the correct term for what I feel. I know that I wish the new couples all the happiness in the world, but a part of me wishes it was me getting ready for the happiest day ever joined with God's perfect man for me. Anyhow, that day shall surely come.

Day by Day

I haven't written in a while but things have been building up and I can't hold out any longer. Writers must write and I'm a rough writer, so here goes.
My life has been taking so many twists and turns and curves and bumps; I could go on, but everytime I think about what my pastor ministered to us several months back about living day by day and not allowing the cares of this life to overcome us, so I face whatever life pitches to me and receive it if it's positive and throw it back if it's not.
Day by day I watch my baby daughter struggle to just get up, yet she continues to smile and continues to make the effort to succeed. Boy, we could learn a lot from her spirit. She inspires me to give each day my very best and thereby be the very best. For this, I am truly blessed.

Stalking or Pursuing

I heard on the radio the other day that two women had actually married their stalkers and I began to wonder what their definitions were of "stalker". Could it have really been just plain old fashioned "pursuit"? I just think there's a fine line between the two and we use it loosely. Maybe we should take a closer look at what we mean by stalking someone. That word makes me a little uncomfortable. Back in the day men were taught to pursue a woman and the woman was taught to play hard to get, now we have labels and he might be considered a stalker, not a guy in hot pursuit of a girls affections.
Anybody out there? Tell me what you think...

Election's over, we have our very first African American president of this United States of America. Some say they can't believe it and I say I have always believed anything is possible. In fact I rather thought I'd be the president. So much for that thought...
We must pray harder than ever and by all means give this man (Obama) our respect as the president. I totally believe in respecting those holding higher offices and always have _ wish everyone else would do the same. Let's work together and stop all the player hating, picking at those candidates who lost the battle and move on to help our country be the best it can be.
Yes we can!!!
