About Olivia
Single mom of two boys ages 11 and 4. Currently works as a Senior Business Analyst for the government, and has been in that field for the last 6 years. She is a mentor to teen youth children in her community where she is able to help them with challenging situations because of her troubled childhood. She is a writer and enjoys writing about spirituality. She is also in the process of publishing a book entitled, You Are Never Alone. Her book is sure to reach out to the mases because of its diversity and message. The book tells about her life's journey and it is sure to engage you as you read through her struggle with trials and tribulations concerning rape, child neglect, abortion, and just surving. Despite her colorful past, she has become a person that holds true to her belief in God and has learned to take the negatives and create positives. She loves to inform and help people, and simply just be available to people as they may share the same struggles she has in life.


WARNING: My blogs are very controversial and heavenly opinionated. There is a reason to my madness. Please trust I love God with all my heart and soul. I cannot imagine not having Him in my life. He is my rock and my salvation and I am so grateful to be a child of the most high.

My blogs which are articles I write, are for EVERYONE. I say that because I want to reach EVERYONE. Growing up in church I learned quickly there were 3 things you don't do:

1. Question your pastor
2. Question the Bible
3. Have questions

Most Christians would like to think they are open to people from all walks and backgrounds but the truth is dealing with the youth they seem to embrace the concept I did as a child. Just nod and agree. Well I wanted to raise questions, I wanted to ruffle feathers, I want to get people thinking, I want to have people involved. Not just Christians, what good would that be ... I want to reach the ma**es. I feel like I can't be the only one that has questioned my faith, identity, and just my very purpose. The responses I have received in the past in regards to my articles have been overwhelming, you would be surprised at the large number of people that stay away from church just because they feel they need to be perfect. They feel they do not fit in. My God stated He came so that we may have LIFE. I want to let someone know God does not have a respect of persons in other words, come as you are, He will do the rest. Your walk with Him is between you and Him. My articles are BOARDLY written, to be able to spark interest in those that shy away from GOD. I am trying to raise questions that some non-believers may have. I am trying to speak for those that say "Is there a God", I want to be as open minded as possible in thinking that everyone is capable of being a light ... I am trying to let mine shine in the only way I know how!

Be Blessed and encouraged!

Love Olivia *there is a reason to my madness*

I Love you Lady!!!
"By the words of Jesus you have life. Listen with your spirit to God's Word in John 6:63. 'The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.' I bless your spirit with hearing and knowing the words that Jesus speaks to you and the Spirit of the words. I bless you with meeting Him daily spirit to Spirit. I bless you with not doing anything by mere human effort. I bless you with being energized with the life of eternity upon all that you are, and think, and do. I bless you in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, who is your life."

God's Richest Blessings to You This Day,
Candace

Hello, My dear O!
Kelly a ♥ for children & animals on 8/09/08 - 8:51 AM
Good morning my friend!

I am writing this because, I am receiving an overwhelming response for prayer requests for healing. And I have noticed that even with prayer, people are still going to the doctors, still keeping there appointments. Still taking man-made drugs. And following the traditions of man.

Why prayer then, I wonder?

I can tell you all this, that I am living proof that if you ask anything of the Father in His will, it is already done.

In Matthew 8-9 there is one key that people of God have in common, they all had faith! Not just a wishy-washy type of faith, but a BOLD unshakable faith!

In Matthew 8, Jesus encounters a man with leprosy. The man said, "Lord, if you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean." Then Jesus healed him.

In verses 5-10, Jesus encounters a Roman officer whose son is paralyzed. The officer asks Jesus to heal him, he wouldn't let him come to his home. He knew that Jesus could heal him just by declaring he was healed, not by going to his home or even laying hands on his son. He didn't have to be at home to know his son was healed, by a Word, he just knew it would happen. I love this one! and Jesus responds with, "I tell you the truth, I haven't seen faith like this in all Israel!" The Bible says Jesus was AMAZED at this man's faith. He then goes on to tell the officer, "Go back home. Because you believed, it has happened." And his son was healed.

In Matthew 9, Jesus heals a paralyzed man because of faith. "Some people brought to him a paralyzed man on a mat. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, 'Be encouraged, my child! Your sins are forgiven.'" And the man took up his mat and walked!

Jesus raises a little girl from the dead. Her father said, "My daughter has just died," he said, "but you can bring her back to life again if you just come and lay your hand on her."

And the woman with the blood disorder, all she did was touch the hem of Jesus' robe. The Bible says all she thought was, "If I can just touch his robe, I will be healed." Notice that she never spoke this?the Bible says that she thought, not spoke. Jesus didn't have to hear her say she wanted to be healed, he knew how much faith she had! "Jesus turned to her and said, 'Daughter, be encouraged! Your faith has made you well.' And the woman was healed at that moment."

Then Jesus discovers two blind men following Him. They ask Jesus to "have mercy on them," and Jesus responds with, "Do you believe I can make you see?" The answered yes of course! Jesus touched their eyes and said, "Because of your faith, it will happen." Then they opened their eyes and could see!

Did you notice that in all these verses, not one person questioned Jesus' ability to perform the miracle?

They were all very bold in either their thoughts or their words about Jesus healing them. They all said, "You can heal me!" Not maybe, sorta, will you, can you heal me, but, YOU CAN HEAL ME!

These people didn't have just a little faith, they knew without a doubt that Jesus could heal them! So faith is the "secret ingredient" in any "miracle" we want in our lives, no matter how big or how small it is.

If we could just learn to BELIEVE when we ask for something, imagine the possibilities. Not an unwavering faith, but a courageous, confident unshakable and immoveable faith!


Thank you LORD for your Word is LIFE!
I blogged this as well with scripture art!

LOL! I saw that! I responded back! I got all heated thinking people around you wasn't treating you well.
I'm always all over that! I hate people having people in their lives that don't respect them. That's where you really see me kick in. I might have gone over board though in my creative writing. LOL!
