Real Ministry with VeeVeca- Who are you... in trouble?
Scripture in view: We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; [2 Cor 4:8]Trouble times like a frisbee zooms right in on you. Without thinking, you fling it away. Out of site. Out of mind. Then from out of nowhere, it comes right back to you. This time it gets your attention in the worse way. And no matter how you war, wait, wail, or win, disturbances come without notice. And the tough skin you thought you had is thinning fast. What do you do, now?
Taken from MSNBC News the article reads, "He said he spent the 11 days buried in the ruins of a hotel grocery store praying, reciting psalms and sleeping. "I wasn't afraid because I knew they were searching and would come for me," he said.
Are you buried in troubles? If so, take a lesson from this man. While his situation appeared the same, he looked beyond the circumstance opened his mouth and prayed, recited psalms and got some sleep. That's pro-active faith that says, "I don't know when, I don't know how, but I know I am going to make it out of this."
Wherever you find yourself at today, you have two choices: Stay in the rubble or get out. If getting out is your choice, I dare you to open your mouth and pray. ‘Recite psalms' or whatever scriptures you know. Say it out loud to yourself until you feel confidence growing. Don't stop. Keep repeating it. Then go to sleep. No matter the climb or struggle within, trust God with every heavy situation and circumstance. He is still the God of catching cares. His glove is never frayed or broken. Stay encouraged in the heavy– and move Forward.

We're not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There's far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can't see now will last forever. [2 Corinthians 4:16-18 The Message]

Chasing God Poem by Veca
Chasing God by Veca
Lord, It's me and I am chasing after you
Wherever you go, it's me
following
tagging after
stepping in your shadow
My legs may be fat
My breathing all out of whack
I may even be a lil old
but whatever I have to do
I am chasing
running
even slow jogging- after you
I know you have to go the distance
to reach all of mankind
even those like me-others don't recognize
because we are not so haughty or even high minded
looking unchurched but somehow connected
sometimes in the most un-godly places
but I am chasing after you
running after you -- as fast as I can
following
tagging after
stepping in your shadow
to reach a world shattered by false religions
and stereotypical alibis of what is and what isn't You
Please slow down, Lord
I am chasing after your heart
your will
be done in earth as it is in heaven
even in this place that others think is so not you
I am chasing, running with all my strength~even all my might
to dwell in the secret place of the Most High
forsaking Me for thee
my flesh, desire, temptation
not my will but your will be done
in this place that seems too much for me to bare
I run-- I follow~tagging after
chasing where I end and begin--
I am in the shadow of the Almighty.

Real Ministry with VeeVeca- Determined 2 Win
I am determined/destined to win in 2010! Kinda lame having a theme but who cares. It's mine and I am doing just that working hard to win in everything I put my hands to do. I made myself a list of things I want to accomplish and I am going to accomplish it all. What God has for me, it is for me. I hope you are just as inspired. Let these few scriptures ignite your determination to be your best!
• And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. [Psalms 1:3]No matter the climb or struggle within, trust God with every heavy situation and circumstance. He is still the God of catching cares. His glove is never frayed or broken. Stay encouraged in the heavy– and move Forward.
• No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. [Isaiah 54:17]
• For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end [Jeremiah 29:11]
• For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off. [Proverbs 23:18]
• So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. [Isaiah 55:11]
• Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: [Isaiah 59:1]
• Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: [Phil 1:6]
• For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly [Psalm 84:11]

Real Ministry with VeeVeca-- Who is really bound?
Scripture in View: Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound. [2 Timothy 2:9]
God is not bound, but your thinking of God can be. When there are troubles in your life, how are you sitting?
Remember the Disney story of Goldie Locks and the Three Bears. Little Miss Bright eyes, Goldie Locks, had no idea that she was teaching a present day lesson- Fear keeps you bound, but faith gets you what you want.
Goldie Locks slipped into the house of the bears. Fascinated by choice, she began testing the water. Instinctively, she wanted to ‘feel out' every item of Momma Bear, Papa Bear and Baby Bear too, in comparison. She sat in their chairs, tested their beds, ate their food, and had the audacity to make loud affirmations of what each of those things felt like to her. Like Goldie Locks, you are sitting in the seat of choice.
How are you sitting today? Are you sitting in the seat of a little powerless out of control you. Or, are you engaging the unknown striking up the adage of ‘change is gonna come'? In review of your troubles, who is really bound- you or the thing desired? Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. [Proverbs 30:5]
On my desk, I have a piece of art work that says, "If your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it." Today is a great opportunity to start swimming.
No matter the climb or struggle within, trust God with every heavy situation and circumstance. He is still the God of catching cares. His glove is never frayed or broken. Stay encouraged in the heavy– and move Forward.
