Dear Lord

 John 5:14(NIV)

Dear Lord:

You have called us to posture ourselves to pray and seek Your ways. We call upon Your Name with thanksgiving and submission to Your will. Help us to pray according to the scriptures with a thirst to grow closer to You. We know that when we humble ourselves, seek your face, turn from our wicked ways, then You will hear us from Heaven and heal the land.

We need Your guidance for our personal lives, families, cities, towns, nations, and principalities thereof. Allow us to seek You first in our decision-making, associations, and projects. Give us the Spirit to discern that which is from You and deny all that is not of You. Help us to stand firm on your Word in the midst of trials, tribulations, short comings, chaos, and distrust. Although the distractions will come, we hold on to the assurance that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus!

With boldness we claim the victory. We put our full armour on daily, deny our flesh, and take up Your cross. The things You have a heart for, we will take them and perform them "In Your Name". Use us as vessels to do the work You have called us to do for the Kingdom. Help us to continuously lend and depend on You in everything that we commit our resources. Let our motives for serving have a significance for Your objectives.

Send laborers to work the fields and bring in the harvest. Continue to work on us and mold us into the individuals, groups, and teams that will glorify Christ!

We love You dearly. In addition, we love our brothers and sisters with an agape love.





"In Jesus Name", We pray.....AMEN


John 5:14(NIV)
14 This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

Thank You!

  Thank You DFA and Family   This serves as a “Thank You” to all of you who are reading this right now. Today is my last day at DFA. Although some of you were here when I came to DFA back in June of 2000, many have retired or moved on to various other assignments. Some have come after I started with DFA. I have had the opportunity over the last few weeks to execute a brief version of a succession plan. What usually takes years, I had to condense in a few weeks. However, I feel assured that the work of DFA will continue with excellence. I did not want any of you to worry about how you were getting paid, so I preferred to work until my last day and think of it as a “see you soon” rather than a "good bye". Good byes are not my forte, because they seem so final. So, I will see you soon. I will be rooting for you and know that DFA will succeed. The years and seasons have gone by so quickly. Time surely waits for no one. As a nation and state, we find ourselves still in the m...

Big Brother

Well, big brother, it's surreal as I type this message. You will always be with me in spirit. I thank God for allowing me to spend my whole life as your little sister. You fought a good fight, God was gracious to you and me as we embarked upon this journey of life.  I understand we are just pilgrims passing through on this side of Heaven. I know you are resting in God's arms now and singing with Moma and Daddy.  I will always love you from the depths of my heart. May your soul rest in peace forever! Love, Little Sis, LaKenya "Nannie", Cam, and Tony

Don't Waste Your Time...

Don't waste your time arguing with or listening to people who are argumentative by nature. Some people will "argue with a stop sign", that's what they use to say in the old days. Just ignore the noise and focus on other things that are more important. Let the small stuff go! There are many more urgent things going on that require more attention. Let us take a look at John chapter nine. Here, Jesus heals a man who was blind at birth and the Pharisees were trying to find out every thing they could to find fault in the miraculous thing Jesus did for this man. First, the disciples asked Jesus, what sin did the man commit? John 9:1 - As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answers, 3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 As long as it is day, we must do the works of him w...

What profits a Person to Gain the Whole World?

What Profits a Person to Gain the Whole World and lose his/her soul? The soul is deemed integral or essential to consciousness and personality . As I contemplate on this thought, I have to take a look in the mirror at myself. With any evaluation made, one must first perform a self assessment , which equates to self-awareness . Knowing where you stand on a particular subject or how you feel about a particular topic, first requires some soul searching and getting to know SELF . So, I ponder and pray sometimes about the direction God wants me to take; about the decisions God wants me to make; about the work God wants me to do; about the associations God wants me involved in; about the influences God wants me to have on others; about the thoughts God wants me to write; and about the people God wants me to touch; then I pick up my Bible to read and He reveals some of these things that I ponder over. Oftentimes, I may not know where to start, but He leads me to where he wants me to g...
