FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR AND THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN!

I escaped with my life because of my faith in God.

It started when I attended a service that was a bit unusual to say the least. The sanctuary was filled with friends and close acquaintances from the years past having a good time. The atmosphere thick with praises and singing, yet lacked one thing that this young southern Baptist Christian knew all to well. I opened my mouth and cried out the name of Jesus and the place became silent. I was greeted by an usher (not Raymond)who proceeded to tell me that it was not that kind of party and that I needed to take back the words just uttered. Upon my refusal I was escorted out of the sanctuary still praising God for his greatness and mercies. The usher perturbed with my boldness to praise reached and pulled out a gun and started shooting at me. I had no place to run, so there I stood. She fired many times in my direction yet the bullets seemed to bounce off of me causing no harm. My life had been spared once again due to my faith in God.

The next morning I opened my as I opened my eyes to get ready for work,I began to notice that I was verbally praising in my sleep and this was all just a dream. Although a dream the scenario spoke volumes to my soul. Undoubtedly, I believe that God is working on my behalf and I shall be victorious.

In the name of Jesus
In the name of Jesus
I have the victory
In the name of Jesus
In the name of Jesus
Satan will have to flee
Tell me who can stand before me when I call on his great name
Jesus
Jesus
Precious Jesus
I have the victory

Now lately, I have been having this problem of unemployment/Lack of work/ Freelancing all at the same time. On Last Monday, I received a call to report to an assignment editing video for a medical foundation that was to last one day paying very well. Once on the job my boss was pleased with my work and I was told that my assignment would last throughout the week. Then I was asked to do some overtime on Saturday. (Side note as I am writing this the story continues to unfold) Today as I reported for this OT assignment, I was asked to accompany the design team to Washington,DC for a week, all expenses paid.

God is great! As I blogged this entry and my boss walked in and began to talk to me about the works of God and how he(God) put people in places. Go figure. He also began to ask me about my church affiliations and how he did video and graphics in the church.

Having Faith is Dapper
