Parents Train up a Child in the Way they should Go and When they are old they shall not depart from it. Prov. 22:6


My mom is a pretty amazing woman. I can't express how Happy I am, that God would grace me to be her daughter. So many times I here about generational curses, bad trait or habits that manifest spiritually and physically through out an individuals family history. What if we focused on generational blessings? Late last night, till 2:00am my mother and I were talking about God. Those talks are rare since we are both so busy. My mother grew up in Haiti... Talk about spiritual warfare. When i was young she didn't tell me too much about her childhood so that my sister and I would not fear or be upset. Now that I am older I am learning so much more about the person she was while growing up

This Is One of Her Stories,

When she was youn,g my mother had to spend a lot of time in church. She grew up Catholic and all though she took her religion very seriously she, always searched for something real and tangible in her faith. If you grow up as a Catholic there are specific prayers that must be prayed, an individual may never pray a specific prayer regarding their personal situation. Because God favored her, He stirred a thirst in her that was foreign to that of her religion. When she would go to mass she would hear the priest say, "when you say those prayers you have to have Faith". My mom would literally go into her prayer closet and say " Lord let me see you, Lord let me see you, Lord let me see you..." She did not know at the time that this was a personal prayer. When she was in her early teens, she lost her sight for three days. While she was loosing her vision, there was a revival happening in here neighborhood. She sent a paper with her name on it to the revival because she was not able to go. The people prayed over it. While she was home her prayer remained the same " Bondye fè m 'wè, Bondye fè m 'wè, Bondye fè m 'wè....Lord let me see, Lord let me see, Lord let me see..." By the time the revival was over she had to feel around a room just so she could make it to the bathroom. And finally when the paper was returned to her she opened it and immediately she could read what was on the paper, her sight was returned.

If God wants you, He will make every appeal to have you. But you must be the one to say yes. Relationships aren't a one man show. I believe that God has predestined me for something greater, but it is only because my mom said Yes that I have the grace to know him.
Generational blessing, yeah I think I'll be speaking those over my family from now on.
Any way I'm happy, hope you are too.... any questions?
Till next time xoxo..
