Proud of my NAME BRAND!!!

THE other day I was at Saver's, a second hand store. NOW...I rarely find anything at these kinds of stores for myself, but I still like to try!!! Sooooooo I have some friends that are just like sooooo totally NOT into thrift stores...which is fine, I could care less!!! Cause I mean lets face it, thrift stores are pretty ghetto and kinda stinky...but stuff like that doesn't really STOP ME! I mean if I can get a good deal AND still LOOK GOOD!!!!!! HAHA!!!
.
So I am lookin and lookin, not really finding anything. Then I go down the shoe aisle and I see these shoes...they are like BRAND new and TOTALLY CUTE!!! I am like OMW!!! THEN I look at the brand and it's AMERICAN EAGLE!!! I am like OH WOW!!! AMERICAN EAGLE!!! WOW! Cause I like TOTALLY know that is some kind of really expensive name brand!!! I look at the price $7.99!!! OMW!!! I like CANNOT believe it!!! ONLY $7.99 for AMERICAN EAGLE SHOES!!! I was like OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY I am SOOOOO getting these!!! So I bought them AND the whole time I am just thinking MAN!!! I can't wait to show these to my NAME BRAND FRIENDS!!! Cause like, the youth at my church, we're just NOT into the name brands, BUT I got some friends from OTHER churches that are like TOTALLY into all the name brands and I can't wait to tell them about my AWESOME DEAL on these name brand shoes!!! I just KNOW they are gonna BE SOOOOOO PROUD OF ME!!!
.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the other day we're at Paradise Valley Mall. We walk into a store and I am looking around and ALL of the sudden I see it!!! I see AMERICAN EAGLE...MY NAME BRAND!!! I am like Oh look it's AMERICAN EAGLE..OH HEEEEEEEEY!!! AND THEN I just START LAUGHING!!! Cause guess what store carries MY NAME BRAND SHOES?!?!?! YUP thats right...PAYLESS SHOES!!!! You guessed it baby!!! ;)

I think I may have been mixing up American Eagle with that Ambercombie brand!

OH WELL...I guess I'll never be the kinda girl that knows her brands...but heeeeey...I sure do KNOW CUTE!!! AND I'm kinda thinkin thats ALL that really matters! ;)

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
