Today is Your Tomorrow

Day 245: The day was filled with a wide range of emotions as the day was eventful from the time my feet hit the floor. I prayed with my brother Dane as he went to his baby mama's house to try to bring his daughter home with him. I prayed with my friend Noy as she wept because tomorrow is Father's Day and she lost her day in December.

The I called one of my Zamzuu business partners to tell him I was sending him healing Scriptures he should pray over his wife Vickie as she lay clinging to life after 3 aneurysms. An aneurysm is a bulge or "ballooning" in the wall of an artery. I felt anxious for her as I texted him each scripture. I could only hope that Sid would be bold and put God's word into the atmosphere. I could barley get the scriptures sent to him quick enough as I felt so strongly in my spirit that he needed to speak them over her.

I felt so blessed that I was able to pray with three dear people to day and humbled that God was using me to do so. I felt empowered that I was walking in my calling and doing ministry outside the walls of the church. I felt God presence so strongly and I was happy that I had gone to be studying the word and woke up on my knees. The word says, we should have a word in season. And the only way for that to happen is to study to show yourself approved.

I swam today and that is something I have not done in year's. It was a little scary at first until I got my grove back and then I didn't want to get out of the water. These three day's are a mirror of what my life is going to look like from this day forward. Today, I'm in someone's second home and one day that will be my reality as well.

Just as I was coming in from the beach the phone rang and I saw it was from one of my other business partners in Zamzuu and my heart started racing. She said, " Rita I'm so sorry to have to call to tell you this," and I went weak.. Vicki O'Neal had just lost her life and succumb to a premature death. She tried to assure me that all the scriptures I'd sent to Sid were sure to have ministered to him.

Vickie lost her life because she let the stress of life and assisting grown children and all of their mess overtake her. That's why I called it a premature death. What we do today will determine what our tomorrow will look like. If we allow life to over take us instead of us taking control of it we will find ourselves coming up short in our health and eventually our life.

My heart is broken for Sid O'Neal as this is his second wife to pass over before him. He and Vickie appeared to really love each other and she smiled like a school girl when she told the story of how they met. They had just vacationed together and he simply adored her. I had the pleasure of visiting heir home on two occasion and they were so excited to have me present to their guest for them. When I would see them at some of our weekly meetings they would make sure their team got a chance to speak with me. They made me feel very special each time I was in their presence.

I trust the scriptures I sent Sid ministered to his soul and now to his broken heart. I now need them to minster to my broken heart.
