MONTEÈCLAIRS TRANSFORMATION INITIATIVE

FORGIVENESS: Lick It Up Doing the dishes days after, i got thinking about the events of the February 24 th , 2013 edition of ‘Worship Unscripted’   by Toyin & Friends especially the last theme, ‘Lover of my Soul’ and my testimony of God’s loving rescue, the Holy Spirit dropped a word in my heart , ‘Forgiveness’.   I searched within asking, ‘Forgiveness ?! Lord, what do you want me to share?’ He reminded me of an incident when i was about 12 years old living with a relative. One day the fridge was leaking, my uncle called my attention and said, ‘ see that water there, lick it up’ . Immediately, i went to get a rag and bowl to clean it up.

Once in a while I like to go shopping and at the malls, I see very interesting characters; Serious buyers who already have a set mind on what they want, head for the section, buy and leave. No drama. There are those who just want to look and get ideas while others want to compare prices or options. Yet others will pick off the shelf without paying and some still just don’t see what they want and leave probably upset. As big Sis, I get to talk with both the young girls and the yo...
