Well lets see here what has been happening with us 3 Turay girls:
Here we go we will start with ME. Well I only asked for 2 things for Christmas and they was 2 things from a 2 different judges and judical systems and I didn't get one (it is something on how a judge can just slap someone on the wrist when that person ran over 2 people and one of them was a child and as I see it he practically almost murdered us or killed us). And lets see the other judge is letting a divorce drag on and on. Job is going great really enjoy the staff and the children that I work with. I learned today in church service that I got to have faith and put all my trust in God the Lord. The Lord will make sure that I am safe and that my girls our safe to. All I really want or need is to be finacially in the right place and that my girls our safe and secure and the listen and follower and have the the spirit in them all their life.
Ok done with me so now on Autumn. She has started therapy on her leg and she is starting to put pressure on it and walk on it. She is on Christmas break and out of school until after the first of the year. So yes she is a typical 8 year old child that enjoys to watch movies, play games on laptop, listen to music and also likes to draw and she is starting to read more and more every day.
Now we our on little Liberty. She has gotten use too and liking going to daycare and making new friends. She is your typical 2 year old that is very active and likes to get into everything. She likes to play, draw and aggravate sister LOL.
My girls are my Life and my Sunshine... I'm going to do all I can to have them follow and learn about the Lord our Jesus Savior and hope they our blessed just like I have been. I'm so blessed and thankful for my parents and family.
Love my, Girls, mom, dad, and rest of my family and friends.
We will be living a Happy Life and will be doing whatever it takes for my girls to follow their dreams and have a good life!

This is What I get out of the series at my church!
A Series of: Because of You
Week One: Beacause of You!
* To lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ.
So we have been greatly encouraged in the midst of our troubles and suffering, dear brothers and sisters, because you have remained strong in your faith. It gives us new life to know that you are standing firm in the Lord. how we thank God for you! Because of you we have great joy as we enter god's presence. 1 Thessalonians 3:7-9
Our Church Values
- We will do anything short of SIN to reach people who don't know Christ. To reach people no one is reaching, we'll have to DO things no one is doing.
- We will lead the way with irrational generosity. We truly believe it is more blessed to GIVE than to RECEIVE.
- We are faith-filled, big thinking, bet-the-farm risk takers. We'll never insult God with SMALL thinking and SAFE living.
- We are spiritual contributors not spiritual consumers. The church does not exist for US. We are the CHURCH and we exist for the world.
How we thank God for you! Because of you we have great joy as we enter God's presence. 1 Thessalonians 3:9
You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of God's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, men will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. 2 Corinthians 9:11-13
GOD IS CHANGING LIVES
1) Because of your SERVING, God is changing lives.
Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, men will praise God... 2 Corinthians 9:13
2) Because of your GIVING, God is changing lives.
You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. 2 Corinthians 9:11
3) Because of your PASSION for people, God is changing lives.
...men will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ... 2 Corinthians 9:13
This series really opened up my heart and as I have been going and listening to all the series and really getting to know the Lord and getting the spirits and praising them has gotten me feeling good about myself & raising my girls. My praising and learning about the lord and being spiritual is going to keep coming and i'm going to keep learning on all the other series that our coming up in the future.

"Those People" A series from church that made me wake up & see things!
I've been behind on posting the series that I have heard at church and this series hit me heard in feelings and in the heart. And i'm going to try not to me one of "THOSE PEOPLE" in any of these category's.
Week One: The Needy!
Those "OVERLY NEEDY" People!
"Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what i have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk. Acts 3:6"
2) GOD, HELP ME STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY BY NOT CONTINUALLY RESCUING PEOPLE FROM THEIR CONSEQUENCES.
"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Galatians 6:7
3) GOD, HELP ME REMEMBER THAT I'M IN NEED TOO AND THAT YOU ARE ALWAYS THE ANSWER.
"Yet I am poor and needy; come quickly to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay. Psalm 70:5
Week Two: The Manipulator!
Manipulating People!
Those People
Week One: The Needy!
Those "OVERLY NEEDY" People!
- RELIEF: IMMEDIATE & TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE!
- RESTORATION: WORKING WITH PEOPLE TO RESTORE THEM TO THEIR GOD-GIVEN POTENTIAL.
RESTORATION
One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer --- at three in the afternoon. Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. Acts 3:1-8
Three Prayers of A Restorer
1) GOD, HELP ME GIVE PEOPLE WHAT THEY TRULY NEED NOT JUST WHAT THEY WANT."Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what i have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk. Acts 3:6"
2) GOD, HELP ME STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY BY NOT CONTINUALLY RESCUING PEOPLE FROM THEIR CONSEQUENCES.
"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Galatians 6:7
3) GOD, HELP ME REMEMBER THAT I'M IN NEED TOO AND THAT YOU ARE ALWAYS THE ANSWER.
"Yet I am poor and needy; come quickly to me, O God. You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay. Psalm 70:5
Week Two: The Manipulator!
Manipulating People!
- Two wmen manipulated Herod. Mark 6:21-28
- Jacob manipulated Esau. Genesis 25:29-34
- Delilah manipulated Samson. Judges 16:15-19
Common Tactics of Manipulators
- Flattery

Breaking the Power of Manipulation
1) GOD, HELP ME RECOGNIZE WHEN SOMEONE IS TRYING TO MANIPULATE ME.
"From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killded and on the third day be raised to life. Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. "Never, Lord!" he said. "This shall never happen to you!" Matthew 16:21-22
How do you know if you're being manipulated?
- You often feel guilty and find it hard to say "NO."
- You compromise you values to please others.
2) GOD, EMPOWER ME TO PUT HEALTHY BOUNDARIES IN PLACE.
"Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men." Matthew 16:23
3) GOD, HELP ME SEE MY OWN NEED TO CONTROL AND SURRENDER EVERYTHING TO YOU.

hupokrites (hoop-ok-ree-tace'); an actor; stage-player, one who hides behind a mask.
"You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you: "These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me." Matthew 15:7-8
PRAYERFUL CONFRONTATION
1) GOD, HELP ME CONFRONT WITH THE GOAL OF RESTORATION.
"Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently." Galatians 6:1
"My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, remember this: whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover a multitude of sins." James 5:19-20
2) GOD, HELP ME CONFRONT WITH CAUTION.
"Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. but watch yourself, or you also may be tempted..." Galations 6:1
"So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall!" 1 Corinthians 10:12
3) GOD, HELP ME SEE WHEN I'M THE HYPOCRITE.
"David burned with anger against the man and said to Nathan, "As surely as the LORD lives, the man who did this deserves to die! He must pay for that lamb four times over, because he did such a thing and had no pity." Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man!"" 2 Samuel 12:5-7
"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. do not cast me from your presence or take you Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me." Psalm 51:10-12
Week Four: Critic
THOSE CRITICAL PEOPLE!
- Aaron and Miriam criticized Moses. Numbers 12:1-8
- People criticized Paul for being a bad speaker. 2 Corinthians 10:10
- Pharisees criticized Jesus for eating with sinners and healing on the Sabbath. Mark 2:16, Luke 13:14
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM
- NEVER IGNORE THE VALUE OF CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM.
DEALING WITH UNJUST CRITICISM
1) GOD, HELP ME KNOW WHEN TO RESPOND TO CRITICISM.
"Now the Ephraimites asked Gideon, "Why have you treated us like this?...And they criticized him sharply. But he answered them..." Judges 8:1-2
"...When the men of Ephraim heard Gideon's answer, they were no longer angry." Judges 8:3
2) GOD, HELP ME KNOW WHEN TO DISMISS INVALID CRITICISM.
"When they hurled their insults at [Jesus], he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly." 1 Peter 2:23
3) GOD, HELP ME OVERCOME MY OWN CRITICAL NATURE.
"Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing." Proverbs 12:18
He said this in his sermon: YOU CAN'T PEASE EVERYBODY...I CAN PLEASE GOD!
These four weeks of this series was very powerful and it got to me alot and alot of ways I need to pay attention more and more with my life and all in the future.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
