It is my 40th Birthday!

 

"It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him". Lamentations 3:22-23.

Grateful to God Almighty.

I rejoice...my testimony is so much to share. Thrown in the pit and prison by those I love and was dear to me. There were persons I really had high optimism for and with and they turned away from me without giving me the chance to voice my voice. In my reactions to the challenges in the dark days of my life, I hurt those who hurt me and those who tried to help me.

Forgive myself and them was a humble pill to swallow but it has been peaceful since I did it. Blessings don't mean material things or how much "elite folks" you know. Life is not measured by those either although material things are needed to help ourselves and others (servants and service).

Covid season-eating manner was the in thing like the Israelites, home for two years and months...

President of the Antigua Toastmasters Club- led the club to rank in the 35th position at the end of the Toastmasters calendar year 2022-2023 and number 1 in the Caribbean, in June we were at 37th, before 41, before that in the 50's and lower. God alone gets the praise for this- everyone on the executive deserted their position and Toastmasters itself for various reasons, only the VPE and the Treasure alone left and man the club. God is good to me, I really went all out by and in HIS strength and might power alone. 

I am here today because God kept me, that is what my life is measured by His grace and mercy that I don't deserve one bit, I'm alive today only because of His grace...yes I rejoice today, for I shall recover it all (what I lost and loss).

Happy 40th birthday to me.

In life we must always see things through Christ eyes-pure. " The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness, how great is that darkness". Matthew 6:22-23. Some up updates from since my last post: VICE PRESIDENT EDUCATION  at the Antigua Toastmasters Club.

Camera. Safety" via zoom but it was of a twist from last year 2020. This year 2021,  the focus was the holistic person. Many of us forget our individual life as we pursue  our goals forgetting me- the individual. I learnt a lot and have

At the end of my reign as President of the Antigua Toastmasters Club in District 81,Caribbean Toastmasters, I lead it at the very top end of the Toastmasters Calendar year June 30 2023. The club globally ranked in the 35th position out of 14, 700 clubs globally, in the Caribbean we ranked number one (1). The team of executives which begun with seven (7) true reality was only three of us, yep you read it right, three - Myself (President), the VPE (second in command) and the Treasurer, everyone else dropped out along the way. I have been sharing my success stories how we made it through with just only the three of us not hiding because leaders within the various clubs may believe that the team comprise of the regular full number every club is to have at the very helm. One thing I always pushed from the beginning of my reign July 1 is believe in your members, don't focus on the goals and all that Toastmasters asks us to go for, none of us and neither the members joined to fulfill that
