Today is Thankful Thursday!!!

I want to scream THANK YOU from the highest mountain top to the most amazing

lady Belinda Rowe (That’s actually Dr. Pastor Belinda Rowe). This lady has been in my life for 40+ years. She started off as a customer of mine when I was doing hair and our friendship grew into something that I wasn’t expecting. She has seen me through being a single mom on Food Stamps, to several graduations to getting my Master's and becoming a businesswoman. Belinda is a friend, best friend, sister, mom, mentor, confidant, and pastor. She has been with me through so many milestones and I am so thankful that I was

able to go through them and come out on the other side with her. I love you Belinda Rowe and you can’t do nothing about it. Publicly, I just want to thank you for everything you have given and brought to my life. Keep on being the most amazing person ever!!!

Enlightened The eyes of my understanding being enlightened…….. Ephesians 1:18

Sis Belinda, You are a breath of fresh air in my life right now. I appreciate your prayers and help to enlighten my understanding and to focus on what and who really matters, and that is God. I always make the statement about how we always give credence to man more than we do God; and when you made that same statement to me in our conversation on Monday, April 26, 2010, it didn’t dawn on me until Friday, April 30th 2010 that’s what I have been doing. I have allowed what man says to affect me emotionally (anger, sadness, bitterness….); instead of acting according to what the word of God says. I Thank You for being in my life for “Such A Time As This”. I  Thank You that I can visibly see and feel that you care for me spiritually. It was getting to the point where I felt like no one cared about me or even saw me. I Thank God that He sent you to cross my path as a reminder that He sees me, cares for me, is there for me and that He is The Way, The Truth, and The Life. I get why I was picked. Thank you, Lord!Thank You again  Sister Belinda for coming along and allowing yourself to be used by God, and reminding me of who I am in God. “I am fearfully and wonderfully made”. “I am the apple of God’s eye”.” I am precious in the sight of God.” Thanks for the encouragement to smile, to stand, to keep my head up, and “See Myself as God Sees Me” As A Precious & Valuable Gem.  Thanks for being proud of me.

Love,

Belinda Rowe, Founder and CEO of Gemss Ministry is truly a rare jewel in the body of Christ.  She is a true servant leader, who is able to effectively minister cross-culturally, with her gifts of mercy and compassion.  She is strategic and resourceful in her approach to ministry, and as such, is able to equip disciples by helping them apply the Gospel to their everyday lives and social contexts. Belinda’s compassionate ministry to hurting women embodies who she is.  I have personally witnessed her god-given ability to transform, inspire, and love the broken back into wholeness.  I have attended and been blessed by several of her ministry events.  She is a gifted communicator of the Gospel, being a speaker and teacher of the Word who has the proven skills of evangelism.

Dearest Belinda,

The example of your life stirs my heart. You simplify doing the word!  You give methods of implementing God’s work in intimate and effective ways.  You keep it real, noting that as we draw closer to God, He asks greater obedience of us.  The Lord will ask greater sacrifice of the flesh while the undesirable weeds and dust of life will dissipate.  Your daily commitement to dress and look like royalty, which you are, is not an option for you, it is part of who you are.  You act according to the revelation of who you are in Christ.  You make me so hungry for more of God and you show me it’s easier than I think.  It’s time for me to deal with my excuses, to make the changes that appear to be impossible. I thank God for your mother and all of the mother figures in your life that have ministered to you.  When you minister to others you do it not only with your mouth and heart, but with your substance also.  I believe that since you see yourself as royalty you are always believing at that high standard and looking to bring others with you.  You give me so much hope!

Thank you for being so meticulous about your life and your walk with God, it speaks volumes.  It’s so very motivating!  I speak increase in your spirit, soul and body; multiplied prosperty; thousand times more according to Deut 1:11; Psalm 115:14 that you increase, you and your children more and more.
