New Birth

Hello people of the blogger world. I must share my experience with you of a new church. Sunday July 17, We had the pleasure of visiting New Birth North an affiliate of Bishop Eddie Long Ministries, New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia, Georgia. New Birth North is located in Marietta , 1395 S. Marietta Parkway building 100 suite 104 Marietta, GA 30067. Jeffrey and I are both Christians, however, we belong to, two different churches. Our relationship is pleasing to God. We are not having sex, playing house or shacking up. NO, we are not doing that either "sex like stuff ." Yes, we kiss, we hold hands and like to tickle but, we know what is displeasing to Christ. Our relationship is open, honest and pure, but not at all perfect. It is very difficult to worship together on Sunday and Wednesday when we belong to two different congregations. Were we summons to attend New Birth North? Perhaps yes. Sunday's message delivered a relationships series! Male & female relationships, coupled with marriages & children, single, or divorced. Their message...Marriages are ending & children are suffering; yet, there is hope! Whether you are married, single, or divorced, God God wants to talk to you. And of course we were listening. God never does anything by accident or mistake so Jeff and I knew we were at the right place at the right time. Amen...Amen. Jeff and I love and care for each other deeply, and we are concerned how this issue, which is very big; will continue to effect our relationship when it comes to our place of worship. What was so very interesting to me was the message delivered by First Lady Moore. She spoke of honoring man. What I mean by that is us woman who are allegedly strong, find it difficult to honor men especially if raised solely by our mothers; who exemplify strength. Respecting men is not a choice marriage vows states "honor, obey until death do us part." Ladies, that mean we must be of Nobel character. Amen...Amen! I agree, I agree with my whole heart that is the order set forth. I have been a Godly woman in training for years. Coming from a family of woman cursed with non-martial status set forth by my grandmother, God rest her soul. I am on a mission. My grandmother had 16 kids all by the same man, although grand-father was a rolling stone and had two children known of outside their marriage; still my nanna honored and obeyed and respected him until the day he died. My grandmother instilled strength in my aunts but, she forgot to teach them to rely on their mate. Setting the stage for the "strong woman curse". Out of 7 girls and 9 boys only 2 of the sisters married. And, only one is married today. My uncle's on the other hand all married or have been in great long-term relationships. Now it is the time for the grandchildren, especially granddaughters who follow in footsteps of "the strong mother" to break the cycle. Can you believe that out of 13 granddaughters only one is married, however, we all have a child or children out of wedlock. Yes! What is wrong with this picture? I am going to break this 'so called curse' that has plagued the Alexander woman for too long. I, just like my cousin Janice who might I mention is one of the granddaughters out of the affair my grandfather had. So to add salt to the wound Janice is not my grandmother's first blood granddaughter. YUP! It is a real curse. If I am not the first to marry and break it, someone will in my life time. I claim that! I am going to show by way of teaching what I am learning, my doctrine will show it, my life will exude the order set forth by God. To be strong for your family is no substitute for weak, single in-charge woman, mothering and so called loving . Amen...Amen Please visit New Birth North on Sundays - 8:00AM & 10:00AM, and on Wednesdays -7:00PM! New Birth North awesome spirit of love was shown Today July 19, when my boyfriend received a call from Pastor Robert C. Moore. I too would have gotten a call if my cell phone was not cut off for late payment. It will be on today. People a note about paying bills online. STOP! It is very dangerous...And identity theft is waiting for you. I know first hand. Think of it this way, if everything goes online all shops, stores, banks and churches will vanish. Just as it is slowly happening today, one click you got a meal, one click you got shoes, one click you got a message from "GOD" and who is behind the message... Please, keep visiting in person your spirit will change any ominous atmosphere. Amen...Amen!
