Look Alive

~ ♥ ~ Brief News to Uplift the Global Ghetto ~ ♥ ~

Hi people! Six years ago today, I incorporated PMLLC. In the days and nights since, much has been concealed, lost, witnessed and gained in this regard. By the indomitable Grace of my God, I am yet alive to learn, grow, improve in His Way and hopefully encourage the same in others with each step forward. We'll be in touch about "me" in Divine p(e)ace, though. This weekend, please share the positive attention I appreciate from you with a group of artists whom I learned are aiding disaster relief with a performance event accessible to the metro NY/NJ/CT area.

Matthew 28:19 tells us we are to go not of but into the world with the spirit of discipleship and the totality of God. Even if unable or unwilling to attend, we can all-ways help to relieve the devastation of recent world disasters with prayer for the Holy Spirit's rightful healing to be delivered even to the unknown places it may belong, better treatment of the rightful blessings we have now, online donations to DWB or generating earnest service efforts of your own. Please stay tuned for additional updates soon. Thank you and God bless!

Love,
H.E.R. :)

It is common of us to have danced with both folly and wisdom in Life, possibly even confusing the two and abandoning the latter at some point. The Proverbs encourage us to take heed as she cries out in the streets of every rural corner, ghetto and city. Having veered off from the Lord's Way and this project near the turn of the millennium, I am very grateful for the Life, health and inspiration to come full circle and continue in It unto completion. "Yes, yes, y'all... It don't stop!" God's Love is the only sure shot!

OK, so I'm a bit excited and arguably corny right now, but my intent to cheerfully spread the Gospel stands firm -- even with this project specifically designed for generations raised on the genre of hip-hop often maligned as male-dominated, female-(self) degraded and/or braggadocio-heavy where "not everybody knows they were born Psalmbody". I know that it can inspire and teach good things especially to motivating rhythms, so it's a pleasure and privilege to encourage you to "Love H.E.R." too. Whomsoever will, please return periodically to download the full and clear quality versions of this music ministry to experience and share  -- freely and in good faith.
Thank you.

Bein' There

Since childhood, I have enjoyed learning about the commemorations that are assigned to each month. The various holidays and observances that broke the monotony of studies offered refreshment and a certain sense of joy that was hard to frown upon. True, we learn over time that some festivals and the like have negative origins that we would be wise not to celebrate, as they contradict the Will of the Most High God in our lives. There are three associations with March, however, that I believe to be harmless and dear.

Whether as a writer, musician or social servant, the themes of health & wellness and, of course, "herstory" have been major parts of my humble Life's work for over a decade. Some of you reading directly or through remote feeds may even recall the ambitions of my first literary project of that same primary title -- and the disastrous attacks of the enemy on all my accounts and relationships to try stopping its completion and manner of ministry. Oddly yet so gratefully, the Almighty used it as a refining fire in my own living story that served to identify and remove the dross inside and out. Trials are universal, so I'm certain many people -- even the women of the pre-19th Amendment era that the t-shirt immediately below acknowledges -- can say "hey, I've been there!"


Of those trying times that occasionally make their way into Life, the pains of hunger, kidney disease and malnutrition -- even without the wasteful spirit, alcohol abuse and financial hardship that may contribute to these ills -- sometimes strike our loved ones or ourselves without warning. Just this weekend, news that a jovial and active uncle of mine is now silent in a coma while undergoing dialysis came suddenly on the heels of the good time I shared with some sisters.** A preventative lifestyle, proper medical attention and a good bean here and there in our diets will promote health. Contributing fervent prayer to God, the Divine Healer, in Christ and sharing the lightness of His Holy Spirit in times of varied dis-ease is even greater medicine in my opinion.

On this International Women's Day, tomorrow for World Read Aloud Day, for the rest of this month and beyond, I encourage us to be there for each other as the Lord instructs and allows. May God bless us to AMPLIFY the Rhema* Word as, with the remnant of this Life!


Sincerely,
~ from the heart of this woman ~
