Princess Vision

 "God gives us dreams a size too big so that we can grow into them."

Once a upon a time there was you and me birthed into a world far away from the kingdom we came from. Surrounded by sickness, generational curses, and a increasingly dark emptiness covered up by greed, addiction and pride. But the light from our kingdom shone on this world and called us to a purpose higher than ourselves. The light is Jesus, the Prince of Peace, the King of Kings. If we accept him our purpose becomes higher than reputation, economic status, social media, and reality TV. Through every shady window there is a kingdom waiting for the owner to claim the keys and say "Lord, I am home." This book defines the true meaning of a princess and the heart of her ministry. The Parable of the God Chosen Husband is story after story of a hero choosing you as his love interest and fighting for your safety forever. Why? He loves us that much.

"Each chapter stands on its own as it deals with issues countless young women struggle with daily.  Issues like past sexual relationships outside of marriage; how to use faith instead of people; overcoming pride; the effects of being idle; combating fear; and my personal favorite – dealing with jealousy.  For the one called to a celibate life, there’s a parable for you.  For the prodigal daughter – there’s a parable for you"- Reader- Tracy Woods

Step out on faith and Trust him with everything! Our kingdom is not a place of worry but of peace that surpasses all understanding.

"God will bless those whose heart is pure, for they will see God. God blesses those who work for peace for they will be called the children of God." Matthew 5

It was nice to see my family for my cousin's birthday party last night in Jersey!  How you doin? lol



Even though I wish I could hear my aunt's incredulous laughter one more time I'm so grateful for the people in my life. Thank you God for relationships!

Gents Stand Up!

                                                                   Gents Stand Up!

 Sometimes I feel like if I don't get married soon my body is going to split in two. (dramatic I know)
Why is this?

 I have an amazing relationship with Christ, two awesome parents, great family and friends, and a bright future.

I student teach, go to school in the night and save the world on the weekends. (just kidding)

I feel super independent without a man and super strong carrying my own groceries eight blocks from the supermarket to my building. (A little too strong, my back aches as I write this)

With all the super independent career women in the world you cant erase the need that is buried deep but still present( for a man's voice, touch, presence.)

Honestly, no matter how independent a woman says she is all women need One man to care for them, to cherish them and only them. It only takes One. The right One. To get it right the first time.

All women need a supporting shoulder to lean on, to cry on, to hold on to in hysterical laughter,  to touch and know its there to stay, its granite and its real. To know this manly shoulder is not going anywhere. i repeat myself it is here to stay.

I'm not on a search for the sexiest man, the best in bed. I'm not thirsty for hot guys to date. I'm not on a hungry trail to fill up my Saturdays with the guy of the week because the girls on Sex in the City make it look cool.

There is only One man I wait for. One man that I want to support me, who understands me like no other man on this planet can, I need that One man who gets me.

Going on a scavenger hunt, swinging from one guy to the next guy will not attract him to me.

I believe that there is One man who was put on this Earth to hold my hand and say " Don't worry Camille, ( cute pet name goes here) I'm right here. Follow me. "

And I will. I will follow him to the ends of the Earth. (there are none. Just a figure of speech)

I will trust this One man, (not two three, four five) just one for a lifetime. Divorce is not an option.

I will follow him because he will be a true leader. Not a fake substitute. ( sounds harsh but I'm serious)
I will follow him where ever he goes, where ever he wants to take me. I will never let go of his hand because I know and I'm familiar with the destination UP.

So Men that's what all women really want. A man they are sure about. Confident about. A man they can fall in love with Again, Again, Again and Again. The love never dies because it is not based on superficial things but is sealed with God's hand of approval.

Women want a man they can fly with not crash and burn with. But in order for her to hold your hand and never let go she has to know you two are going in the same direction and pray fully that direction is UP.

In order for her to trust you, you have to be Trustworthy. In order for her to have all respect for you you have to be Respectable. In order for her to Honor you like a queen honors a pharaoh/ like a princess honors a sultan/ citizen honors a dignitary/church honors a pastor :
you have to Be Honorable.

You cant show your butt (showing underwear is practically like mooning)
to a woman and then expect her to stop and listen to what you have to say.

You can't create children out of wedlock, make excuses for it and expect a woman to trust you.

You cant be incarcerated for not listening to authorities and expect a woman to listen to you.

You can't disrespect a woman by calling her out her name and expect her to have respect for you.

You cant ignore her phone calls for days and then expect her to be available when you call.

You cant lie to her face and then expect her to be honest with you.

You cant compare her to another woman and then expect her to celebrate you.

You cant expect men to treat your daughter like a princess if all her life you mistreated her mother/ other women.

You cant expect your son to be a man if you didn't show him how to Be ONe.

You cant expect a good stable long lasting marriage if you don't know WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST.

I feel like I am bashing men. But I'm not. I hate to do that because there are so many good ones out there. But for those that are trying to fit in and look cool and bag females, look to the who created you. In order to get the best you have to be the best. No expectations. All of us have work to do.

A good man says "There are no excuses."
. A godly man triumphs over all hardships/setbacks/mistakes/failures and
eats them for breakfast. He hasn't the time to dwell on them. He has work to do. ( Mine is one of those heh heh)

So stop looking for a "supermodel chick" when the girl next door, that's just it! Is right next door..

She may not be super fabulous, super sexy, super hot, look madd good ( by the World's Standards) but she is super Saved she has super Vision, super Destiny, super Substance, super Loyalty, super Gentleness, super Kindness, super Humility, super Self- Control, super Purity.  (and so on I can go forever with this lol)

She won't cheat on you, she wont ruin your credit, you wont try to look smarter than you and make you feel less than a man because she has been saving herself for you. Stop going by the World's Standards of what your wife should look like, sound like, dress like, how gangsta she is.
( Basketball Wives anyone?) Go by God's standards.

There is a handbook he created just for you. ( 1 Corinthians)

STAND UP MEN! STAND UP MEN OF GOD!!


Be the men that you where created to be. Leaders, not followers. Gentle with the womenfolk. ( goes for grannies on the train, little girls running past you making you miss a bus, females that you are not dating included). Leaders not followers, righteous, upstanding, ( meaning refraining from speaking bad language when a lady enters a room. Even though you shouldn't be speaking like that anyway! ( Mama Camille lol). Men that are loyal ( stop cheating ! yes looking is cheating if you are lusting after and while you are looking!) Men that are strong towers of Morality ( stop saying you are a Good Guy, good guys DO the right thing. You know right from wrong.) Men that wont fall under pressure but will be cornerstones for Christ. Need I say more?

Where you at Men? ( Where for art thou Gents?)

I see you. Stop hiding under those clothes, you're better than that. You're too handsome to be a statistic. You're too handsome to speak that way, to settle, to just exist....

Don't be afraid to stand outside the crowd.
There are two kinds of guys out there. Godly guys ( true authentic gems, priceless)
and ungodly guys ( who make excuses, a penny's worth)

Which one are you?

Your sons are following your footsteps which man will they follow?

Christian Monologues for Women.

First before you begin to read/memorize let me give you a brief summary of both. The first monologue is called Why me? The woman can be a teen or a female in her early 20s. She is a tough girl, she has seen alot, been through alot, basically raised on the streets kinda of girl. When you perform this monologue there has to be an easy harshness about you. You know the term rough around the edges..That's her! She is use to treating people like trash until one day nobody cares about her. So she decides to end it all until The Healer comes into her life and nothing is ever the same again...

WHY/ ME?

The streets taught me how to be tough, heartless, cold, how to permanently damage with my words and my fists. How to please a man. The streets taught me how to survive… Nothing scared me, nothing got in my way, no one stopped me from getting what I wanted when I wanted it. I was the boss and the world was on my side. I had parties, had loads of follower’s, wannabe’s, even my enemies wanted to be like me. I had all the power…Until she came.

She was smarter, prettier, Better. She took everything and now I don’t shine. She came out of nowhere I wasn’t prepared. Now no one is afraid of me anymore, no one wants to listen to me, no one wants to be like me, no one sees me, no one loves me.

I am sorry for what I done but no one forgives me. I dont blame them. Look at me, pathetic, filthy, and used up, worthless. He said he would love me forever – but – he lied. He's with Her now. I am nothing but an empty shell.  Depressed, lonely, Insecure, Heartbroken. I don't deserve to live anymore. I escape.(Picks up knife and holds to wrist)  Until a voice cries STOP!!!!

I see him.

He is perfect in every dimension, stainless, and he tells me to put the blade down. He tells me he cares, he tells me he loves me beyond my faults, he tells me he could erase my past, he tells me he will restore my body, he tells me with him all things are possible,  he tells me he has a purpose and a plan for me. So I drop the knife. I accept him into my heart  and suddenly I am born again? I am Born Again!  And nothing is ever the same! No one has ever spoken to me the way he does. He speaks to my heart. He has taught me for the first time how to LOVE and now LOVE is everywhere I go. It’s strange. People I use to scare just follow this light inside me. I don’t know why he saved me! But glory be to God I’m so glad he did! When I ask him why me? He just simply says when life Fails you. When people fail you. When you Fail, my love never Fails....

 

“A man worth waiting for…”

"A man worth waiting for..ahh. What can I say about this one?? Well it is my living, walking, breathing testimony that's for sure!! lol This is a word for all the single Christian ladies out there holding on for the chosen one, the one God promised her.  The woman can be any age, desperate for a guy in the beginning and in the end desperate to serve and to praise her God in advance for his special delivery! This monologue is  supposed to be humorous based on my book Parable of the God -Chosen Husband. These monologues were made to share, read aloud, enjoy and of course to act it out! Have fun and be encouraged!

(reading Song of Solomon)

“Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth

-muah- muah

For your love is more delightful than wine.

Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes,

Your name is like perfume poured out.”

-your name is like perfume poured out?#!

OK God -I can’t take this any longer!

Where the  he-heaven is he??

I’ve been waiting for years and all I get are funky guys who talk a whole lotta game.

So where is heeee?

I’m tired of waiting, waiting and Waiting and waiting..

So where is this sweet smelling fantastic kissing man? I’m a virtuous woman, where is my virtuous man? Where? I don’t see him.

Is he even coming?

(hears the VOG)

He's on his way?

Where? Where? I'm so ready!

Is he stuck in traffic?

(acts as if she sees the man she has been waiting for)

Ouee! maybe that's him.

(Got a better look)

Nooo. That's Not him!

Ahhh. Here I am, alone, just waiting for my Boaz to put a ring on it!

(hands clasped as if praying)

Father, can he be strong and tall with great arms?

Full lips with perfect teeth with a smile that lights up a room?

Oh and he has to be smart, funnyy, charming,  stylish, SUCESSFUL, have a little swagger, oh and God??

Can he have Big Feet?

_Wait a minute- what am I saying??

Lord you know what’s right for me and you have perfect timing.  You told me he is on his way,,,So What am I so anxious about? I trust you with the man you bring into my life, whoever he is, whatever he may look like, just let him be a Man of God!  I pray that I will be the woman he has been waiting for inside and out. Keep working on this. (points to heart)  So that I will be ready when he comes. Father I trust you with the Delivery and the Package. Therefore I won’t complain about the wait because he will be all that and then some – in YOU- truly a man worth waiting for-

Something Funny in Stormy Weather!

Heard this from my friend Kenyetta.....
"For u "Single Ladies": In the Bible, Ruth patiently waited for her mate Boaz. While waiting on your Boaz, don't settle for ANY of his relatives. Brokeaz, Poaz, Lyinaz, Cheatinaz, Dumbaz, Downlowaz, Fakeaz, Cheapaz, Lockedupaz , Goodfornot hinaz, Lazyaz, Drunkaz, or Marriedaz and especially his third cousin Beatinyoaz. Please...wait on your Boaz & make sure he respect Yoaz

Love it, tell me what you think!

The Day the Earth shook

Wake up New York City!? The East Coast had an earthquake?! 5.9? God is speaking. We have to stop and listen. Stop thinking about ourselves and our itty bitty lives and worship the one and true living God  because he is HUGE... because he so deserves our time, our energy our praise. It's funny because no matter how much we describe him we still don't know how outstanding our creator really is. Our brains cannot discern his description. But we can look forward to the day when we will. I cant imagine seeing him face to face. What a privilege, what a time that would be when I will just fall on my knees, forget all my problems and my past and experiences on Earth to witness the only experience that matters, that lasts, "His Glory." The earth may shake, the buildings may topple, the world may end but all I know is God is sovereign and because I am saved I will not perish...but prosper. Now that is something to smile about!

Skydiving Addiction

 I can't get enough air. I'm starting to feel like a serious airhead because I'm addicted to skydiving.

I wanted to jump since the age of eight (thanks to Cliffhanger and those airhead guys who jumped off Colorado cliffs) and now I'm doing it at 24! Awesome!

For my birthday (July 31st) I jumped 10, 000 feet. I couldn't breathe for fifteen seconds. I thought I was going to die. My whole life flashed before my eyes. I have it recorded on tape. I loook petrified!

My friend jumped at the last minute with me. She is incredible. She was silent in the film. Understandable given the circumstance.

The guy asked me if I would do it again. He didn't know I already lost my mind way back when.

And Guess What? I did it again in October.

Too bad Jersey Shore Skydive closed for the winter I would've jumped below twenty degrees! Yes it's that bad.

I aspire to jump alone one day. Pray for me.
I aspire to base jump one day. Ask God to restore my sanity.

There's nothing like breathing two inches from the clouds. There's nothing like flying above the birds. The feeling of invincibility, power, defying gravity makes you feel in conquerable.

I guess that's why my partner thought he was a god.

I'm not that silly. I know the maker of the heavens and earth. When I jump I feel closer to him and his majesty.

I thank him for making a tiny speck like me. To not only make me but to put up with me and love me is incredible. I serve a amazing God. The adrenaline rush, the craving inside soul yearns to connect to his creation. He is my natural high. I don't need drugs. I don't need alcohol. I don't need a man to feel giddy, I just jump and I'm there.

The experience takes my breath away...

I hope my future husband is a dangerous Christian. I am.

SEXY IS...

SEXY IS…Now, I lived long enough to know clouds are not large portions of cool whip floating in the sky, and that parents weren’t created to make your life miserable, and surprisingly Reality Television is actually not reality at all but filmed socially challenged rejects with a script. And being wise enough to unveil a few of life’s mysteries I decided to continue my unmasking with the most mysterious and challenging of them all: MEN.


Ripples down his abdomen, bulging biceps, toned muscular legs, mixed with a smooth complexion, pouty lips and come hither eyes all wrapped in a James Bond suit use to be my definition of S E X Y. I love when a man’s tight abs create a maze when water flows down his chest. And I’m not alone. Women swoon over the deep purring whisper of a man’s voice teasing their ear. We all blush when a good looking guy in any uniform smiles our way. If we happen to snag one we show him off to our girlfriends in pride and if our friend is the fortunate catcher of the Adonis we secretly wish the catch is a rotten one.

A golden tone man in a three piece suit with dimples to match sure can make my heart skip a beat maybe two but I ponder is his sex appeal just swagger for the conquest or is there an outlasting substance hidden underneath his cuff links?

Unfortunately, most are just sparkling crystal that fade after time and leave you wondering what made them so attractive to begin with. And then there are some who may not have had a definite sparkle but instead overtime they shine like diamonds.

Here’s to all my SEXY men who are true to their word.

Sexy is telling a woman you are going to give her the world and mean it. The effort is enough to make her smile. (Guys we know your not Superman but we appreciate when you try, then it is more than just a corny line)

Sexy is showing off your treasure, the love of your life to everyone you know. (That way we know there is no one else in the picture, and of course that you love us and recognize the rare jewel that we are)

Sexy is having class. We live in a world of rump shakers and violent trash talkers it is amazing to know there are men out there who still treat respectable women like ladies and disassociate with women of a lesser standard.

Sexy is standing outside a crowd. It always makes me do a double take when a man chooses to march to the beat of his own drum and not of coworkers and friends. (Peer pressure? After twenty three get over it!)


 Sexy is being hater resistant. Being a great guy sure has its advantages and disadvantages. Be sure to discern all those who give you trouble just want to be like you or the female perspective, just want you. (But by then you will be already taken. Bye haters)

Sexy is having faith. There’s nothing sexier than to see a man on his knees praying. A man of integrity believes in a higher power who gives him strength when he is in need and self control to refrain from kicking you know what from those that test him (See above)

Sexy is being a fighter. By all means walk away from your everyday back biting and occasional rifts with your former ex. But there comes a time in every man’s life when he eventually has to lay the smack down on an unfortunate victim of ignoritis. This will make your woman proud to have a man that is no punk and who is willing to fight for their relationship.

Sexy is being a BOSS. Your sweetheart asks, "What are we doing today honey?" You respond, "Uh, I don’t know, what do you want to do?" Duh. Being a head of a corporation is not the only leadership position that this title is given, it is rewarded when a man is the head of his household, makes wise and accurate decisions to better his relationship with his wife/girlfriend (like know where to take her out on a date), and is in control of his life and future. Being a BOSS is having an intricate purpose and making strides to obtain it. (I love it when a man takes charge.)

Sexy is being a man. All in all, a good father, an encouraging friend, reliable coworker, respectful son and romantic endearing husband make up the mechanics of one truly sexy specimen. Sexy is not using your good looks to sleep with a pretty girl, or experience to take advantage of a desperate housewife (yes it’s not just a series it happens), or seduce an innocent virgin with practiced lines and deceitful charm. Sexy is waiting for her until she is ready, no matter how much your body craves attention. Sexy is being innovative and thoughtful, intelligent and wise.

After dating for six years I now discovered my problem, the guys I have been dating are not sexy enough!

Now ladies, if you find a guy who meets at least one of the categories hold on to him. He has great potential, if not stop browsing in Bridal shops he hasn’t arrived yet!!

From now on that’s my kind of guy. SEXY. ;)
