I am so DEEPLY touched by the LOVE shown for each other concerning the Snow and Black Ice in Atlanta. Yall know that’s my second home. I am addicted to the Message Board SnowedOutAtlanta on Facebook. I have been reading for hours. I know this post my be boring and long for some… but if you have a few minutes to read it…. I PROMISE YOU WILL SEE GOD. I PROMISE.. I’m in tears reading so many of these messages. I just LOVE THE LORD SO MUCH. Every day we get closer and closer. He amazes me, he excites my heart, he makes me smile. I just LOVE HIM. Okay here it is..

 

I have a friend that has been stranded at work for the past 36 hrs. She is a security officer at the GA tech building on 14th street by IKEA. she is need of food. I have tried calling several restaurants in the area and no one is answering. She can’t leave her building unsecured and she probably won’t get relief until maybe tomorrow but she is not sure. She has Bergen without food for quite some time now. Is there anyone that can help?

David and Tamela Mann Crees Blog Entry

david and tamela
I’ve always been a huge fan of David and Tamela Mann the star of many of Tyler Perry plays and movies. Today they uploaded their 25th Wedding Anniversary that was actually last year!!! And it is all that I expected it to be. People will say Beyonce and J-Z is a POWER COUPLE.. Steve Harvey and his wife Marjorie, Will and Jada… but to me this is a “Everything” Couple…. and I just LOVE and admire them dearly. Enjoy.

Feeling Some Kinda Way……………………….Crees Blog Entry

lacreeee
I’m sitting here feeling “some kinda way” I can’t even explain this feeling. It’s this quiet thinking, but not talking feeling. If Nesha was here, she would say… “ma, you look weird”…… what’s on your mind’? I dunno. Usually when I get like this… I’m usually lacking time with God.. or my music. Tonight I think its my music. So, I’m going to lay down soon and let my Ipod put me to sleep.
 
 
I need to get out of this head space that I’m in. Oh yea… its almost the end of the month and my goal was to lose 9 lbs… and I’m at 10. So, that I am excited about. I have LOTS of work to do. Thank God for my beautiful shape… because I can get away with a lot. I can’t wait until it warms up, so that I can do my walking again at the Park. I can’t mess with all those jumping jacks, and hula hoops. LOL
 
 
Even though this “wilderness” that I’m in….. I can’t deny the things I’ve learned. And funny thing is.. had I not been here… I don’t think I would know what I know. That’s something to think about……if your reading and have found yourself here. That’s a Blessing in itself. I look at people, things and situations in a totally new light. Not so much as bad either……. just “differently”. LOL
 
 
Great thing is….. I’m feeling better even after writing this little bit. My break through is coming….and when it happens….. its going to be a loooooong time before I’m in this space again.
 
 
Good Night… Be Blessed

My Sister Peedie Crees Blog Entry

peedie
 
Hey,
 
 
I guess I’m in a writing mood tonight. Its cold outside… no school, no work. I’m about to bake me some Pillsbury Chocolate Chip Cookies after writing this and chill out!!! LOL I’m feeling REAL good right about now.
 
 
Even though my circle is small…. I know a lot of people. There was a time that if you didn’t agree with what I’m saying….then I figured why should WE be friends? I would speak to you when I saw you… but I had no intentions on dealing with you again. I’m so glad GOD got on me about that. That’s terrible to be that way just because somebody don’t agree with you. I want to share this story.
 
 
My family LOVES banana pudding. My momma makes it from scratch… She has her double boiler and she gets down. She uses Nabisco Wafers. and pretty yellow ripe bananas. My brother likes it, but not as much as me and my 2 sisters. So this is what she * my mom* does now. She’ll make a BIG GLASS BOWL for the grand kids, my daddy and who ever is over. Then she’ll make MY own bowl, MY SISTER YOLANDA own bowl, and MY SISTER PEEDIE own bowl of banana pudding. My sisters don’t too much care for the bananas, but I LOVE THEM. SO, mines would have them, and they would just have the cookies in theirs.
 
 
I noticed years ago, that when my baby sister Peedie come over to my house she would always want to leave with something of mines. I say to myself.. “why does she always ask me could she have something that she see on my dresser, in the refrigerator, or on my desk. I WOULD GET SO MAD AT HER… because I didn’t understand. This gurl has everything she ever needs. But it was just something about my stuff. So, one day I asked God why does she do that. At one point when I knew she was coming over, I would hide the stuff that I KNEW SHE WOULD ASK FOR. LOL
 
 
God said to me… remember when she was a little gurl she would beg your mother to get YOUR WHOPPINGS for you? I said yeaaa.. we always talk about that. He explained to me how much Peedie loves me. How much she admires me, and how much she listens to my advice. He said you have more of effect on her than you realize. He said don’t say nothing just pay attention to when she come over, and how she listens to you. Pay attention to how she always want your stuff…. just to be apart of it, and not to completely take it away from you. I said wow…. just thinking about certain situations made me think. I never thought about it like that.
 
 
A few weeks ago.. my mom told us that she was making dinner and for all of us to be there around 4 on this one Sunday. Like she always does…. she made US ALL OUR OWN separate banana pudding bowls to take home…. mines with bananas and wafers, my sisters with just wafers. And also one HUGE GLASS BOWL for the others. We all were sitting at the table talking and laughing. My Sister Peedie got up opened the refrigerator and got her bowl out, she took a spoon got a few taste and put it back. Then she got the glass bowl out and made her a tiny tester portion. I laughed in my mind. She sat down first thing she asked me was… did I want some of hers. LOL I ate a little bit. Still thinking about what God told me… I laughed in my mind.
 
 
Then after a hour or 2, she got back up and went to get HER personal bowl out, she got a few spoon fulls then closed it back up. I said to my momma… now watch she OPEN MY BOWL and dig her spoon in mines. We sat and watched her.. it was so funny. God was right. So, as she was putting it back…… I said “Peedie,.. now my momma made us all our separate bowls of pudding…. why you digging in mines”? She started cracking up. She said you know I gotta always taste and go in your stuff. I said but PLEASE HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND…. she said its something about YOUR STUFF. I LAUGHED WE all LAUGHED. She said… plus yours have bananas in it…. mine don’t. I said guuuuuuuuurl… the big bowl have bananas in it… you still want mines. We cracked up laughing.
 
 
The point in this is… UNDERSTANDING. Even if we don’t agree or understand why people do what they do, or act a certain way…. ITS OKAY.. Its not a bad thing, ask God for understanding of why they do the things they do. I promise, you will look at that person in a whole different light. I love my sister…. she loves me. I understand her now. Its NOT the STUFF that she wants… its the fact that it belongs to ME.
peedie my baby

Why Women? Crees Blog Entry

TOOBLESSEDTOOBESTRESED
Why Women?
 
 
Why do some women… PRIDE themselves on knowing information about someone. Doing research, talking/listening, finding people who are close to the source for * personal* confirmation. EITHER TO JUST KNOW IT… OR TO SHARE IT WHENEVER THEY FEEL THE NEED TO “PULL IT OUT”.
 
 
Watching NeNe Leakes pull out Natalie Christopher Williams wife/gurlfriend is a prime example of wanting to put Kandi and Kenya “out there”. There is no way, Nene want the viewers to believe that Kandi’s record is squeaky clean. #sowhat People like this…. make sure that if you like someone, and find them to be cool good people… THESE TYPE OF PEOPLE will make sure they share with you what type of people YOU THINK they are…because in their minds…… they’re making sure you’re not being “deceived”. When in reality its not that serious….. but it is to the person who is telling the story to you. They cringe at the fact that YOU find this person to be good people.
 
 
Why will some women…… do anything in their power to let others know… that they were their for YOU… and you wasn’t there for them. Many times people will PRIDE THEMSELVES on making sure that they’re always there for YOU… RAIN, SLEET AND SNOW…..so when they need YOU… you better be there for them. Sad thing is… when Nene tried to make Porsha feel that she’s not a good friend, no matter what Porsha said to her about going through a rough divorce, trying to find a house, moving away from her mom and sister when they clearly wasn’t ready for her to move yet. Nene disregarded the fact that Porsha was having a hard time in her own life….. why would she expect for her to call her with so much going on? Why women fail to just fall back sometimes? I’m very close to my family, and when I’m going through something… ALL I WANT IS GOD. THEY KNOW THIS.. THEY RESPECT MY SPACE. No person can help me. And if you’re going through and you’ve always been there for me… and I share with you MY ISSUES and why I can’t be there for YOU…… FALL BACK.. Let me regroup. Let me get myself together.. I PROMISE to “do you” when I get through my own issue. Women need to STOP depending on PEOPLE SO MUCH to pick up THEIR pieces of their lives, just to hear their stories. I know how it goes…. I use to be the first to call a friend to tell them “what happened”. God was standing in the background begging me to talk to him about it. And when I realized that NOBODY OWES ME NOT ONE  OF THEIR EARS….. that’s when I turned to God.. and never turned back. Please get some where on your knees and face to seek God. Nene feelings were either “really hurt”….. because she realized that Porsha didn’t look at her as a “go to person”.. or she just wanted to run a guilt trip in her vulnerable state of mind.    I’m proud of Porsha.
One of my favorite songs

Again……….. A Love Song Crees Blog Entry

cree.jpg

1 Janet Jackson
2 Again
3 I heard from a friend today
4 And she said you were in town
5 Suddenly the memories came back to me in my
6 Mind
7 CHORUS
8 How can I be strong I’ve asked myself
9 Time and time I’ve said
10 That I’ll never fall in love with you again
11 A wounded heart you gave
12 My soul you took away
13 Good intentions you had many
14 I know you did
15 I come from a place that hurts
16 And God knows how I’ve cried
17 And I never want to return
18 never fall again
19 Making love to you
20 Oh it felt so good and
21 Oh so right
[7]
22 So here we are alone again’
23 Didn’t think it’d come to this
24 And to know it all began
25 With just a little kiss
26 I’ve come too close to happiness
27 To have it swept away
28 Don’t think I can take the pain
29 No never fall again
30 Kinda late in the game and my heart is in
31 Your hands
32 Don’t you stand there and then
33 Tell me you love
34 Me then leave again
35 Cause I’m falling in love with
36 You again
37 Hold me
[37]
38 Don’t ever let me go
39 Say it just one time
40 Say you love me
41 God knows I do
42 Love you

Second Chances Crees Blog Entry

You were told of a place that you were going to go.
You had to prepare and be ready when that time came
you wasn’t
you got left
you fell “asleep”
you felt bad
blamed it on yourself
decided that maybe this was God’s way
felt that your families should have stalled the bus
felt it was their fault
you even got mad
angry and upset
because you were the one who told “them” to be ready
and you wasn’t
 
 
But wait…………..
 
 
You got another phone call.
You were told to be ready to meet at the same location at the same time
on another day
This time you sleep
but you sleep lightly
you’re on guard
you know your time is near to be ready
Because you refuse to miss this bus
THIS TIME!!!!!!!!
 
 
The truth is………… many people will NOT be on “The Bus” with their family and friends when Jesus returns.
 
Praise God! You made it to heaven! You made good on your second chance!
 
If you can read this story and see clearly the message. Then you know and understand that your time is no longer your time to entertain and to do what you want with it. You now understand that this thing is serious, and God wants YOUR name in that book. What book you say?
 
 
See Our Lord has a guest list. Yes,……………and to get in YOUR name has to be on it. Can’t just any ole body walk up in this function. When you get permission to invite your family and friends, that person who invited you put them on their guest list.
 
 
Read : Revelation 21 (New International Version) 27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
 
 
Everyday we wake up we get a second change in life to repent of our sins and to accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. Everyday is like a fresh sheet of paper that has nothing on it. Each day is brand new, not one person here on earth has peeped inside of it. Everyday our Lord is working behind the scenes, through people, situations, life lessons, testimonies just to get us to stay awake long enough to know that the time is near!
 
 
The bible says: Mark 13 (New International Version) 32“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be alert[f]! You do not know when that time will come. 34It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
 
 
How deep is that! Have anyone told your kids to clean up the house and when you get back it better be cleaned? And when the kids did what they supposed to do and cleaned up, they still watched out for you to get back……………… they felt confidence, they did what they were told to do. They ran up to their moms, hugged and kissed them when she returned, because their work was done, they knew how mom like it, they knew she would be pleased. And She was.
But for those who didn’t do what they were supposed to do, they didn’t feel as happy. They knew that they got caught NOT watching out for her to come back. They knew that when she returned that she would not be pleased.
 
 
the bible says:

Proverbs 11 (New International Version)

30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
and he who wins souls is wise.
I don’t want to be left behind. I want to be caught up in the clouds to meet Jesus when he cracks the sky!

Who really has the Power? Crees Blog Entry

Real-Housewives-of-Atlanta-Official-Cast-Photo-SFTA
I realized that I’m REAL QUICK to tell somebody….. if someone on your Facebook page is negative and post attention seeking stats….. to delete them or ignore their post.
 
 
But when it comes to RHOA Nene Leakes and Kenya Moore…. I can’t seem to follow my own advice….. to stop watching the show.
 
 
After this past Sunday’s episode…. my blood was boiling, and all I could do was walk around my apartment, to try and understand “what type of people are these women”? I can EASILY SIT HERE AND SAY… you know what.. that’s them! This is how they are, this has nothing to do with me, I’m going to HEAVEN.. what they do is on them. I could sit here and say….I don’t care what comes out of their mouth…. they’ll have to pay the consequences for being MEAN GURLS. And when things start to fall apart for them…. they did it to themselves.
 
 
But I don’t want to feel that way. I care too much. So, I asked myself why? 
 
 
For me…. when I see these BEAUTIFUL, SUCCESSFUL, BLACK WOMEN with their OWN TV show… IN MY MIND…. they’re suppose to represent just who they are. I HATE to see them gossiping, disrespecting each others marriages and relationships. A few of them are so insecure that they PRIDE themselves on learning and studying “damaging information” on their cast mates….anything to look better. Its so sickening and sad.
RHOA-Season-6-Screenshots-7
 
 
But here is my biggest issue. These women not only have the PODUIM AND STAGE to uplift themselves and others, but they have the POWER to show the world God. I know not everyone will get on TV and do that…. but here is what I DO KNOW. If they continue to get on TV to disrespect themselves and others instead of uplifting and motivating……… where they show out on STAGE ( TV, Media) WILL BE WHERE GOD SHOW THEM…………..WHO REALLY HAS THE POWER. That day is coming. I see it. One by one.
 
 
My prayer is that someone will pull them to the side and talk to them.
 
 
BE BLESSED
