They remind me of someone...

Soooooooooooo I go to the weight loss center I go to, to get back on track with weight loss, the owner like loves me and will give me like free products basically just cuz I'm Mary and she loves talking to me and well cuz everyone, almost everyone, loves me!!! LOL

Weeeeeelllll I go in one day and the owner isn't there and I'm greeted by this older grandmotherly type lady in a nurses uniform. She opens my file, reads my name and is like, OMG, SOOOOOO YOUR MARY!!! My daughter has told me sooooooo much about you...I'm HER MOM!!!! (The owner's)

She's like, WOW, your really are SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! Oh just look at you, she says, all your little things, your hair ribbons, your just too cuuuute!!! OMG! On and on...She's just like GUSHING OVER ME!!!! Then she ACTUALLY takes my face in her hands and is just like, YOU ARE JUST ADORABLE!!!

I mean, I LOOOOOVED the compliments, buuuuuuut I left that place liiiiike, OKAAAAAY this lady is JUST CRAZY!!!! And YET, despite me thinking she's kinda quirky, I thought there was SOMEONE she reminded me of, that was ALSO KINDA WEIRD, buuuuuuut yet despite their quirkyness, I feel a FONDNESS towards them!!! I'm just driving home like, hmmmmmm

LATER ON...

I'm at home and I see my nephew and MAAAAAAAANNNN...I JUST LOOOOOOOVE THAT KID!!!! I just start hugging and kissing him and telling him he is juuuuuuust soooooooooooo cuuuuuuuuuuute!!! I mean, literally, I think he is like THE HANDSOMEST KID AROUND!!! Plus the kid is PRACTICALLY like a son, MINUS the financial responsibility...bahahahahaaa...I'm like, OMW O YOU ARE JUUUUUUUUST SOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!! YOUR ADORABLE!!!!

Annnnnnnnnnnd as soon as I said that, I REALIZED WHO THE WEIRDO WAS that lady from the weight loss center, FONDLY, reminded me of....

I'm liiiiiiike, OOOOOOOOh yeah...that's WHO!!!!

I LOOOOVE the fact that I couldn't place WHO they remindinded me of, buuuuuuuut, it was someone I felt FONDNESS TOO!!! AHAHAHAAA!!!! Even though I thought she was crazy for gushing over me like that, I CAN SOOOOOOOOO see MYSELF doing that to someone when I am in my 60's!!! (Or maybe RIGHT now!!!;)

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!

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!
