Watch Your Life Bloom

Welcome to the Official Blog of Author Dr. Lily L. Ratliff Jenkins, of the inspirational Memoir, The Life of a Lily: Growing in His Strength, Blooming in His Love, and many other writings.

Thanks for coming by to sit awhile and reflecting along with me on everything biblical. On this blog, feel free to share your thoughts and feelings about the various topics I present. They all do come from the heart and are meant for us to ponder, be enlightened, laugh, cry, and ultimately give God all of the praise.

You will hopefully find resources on everything from writing tips to creating your own memoir, how to journal, becoming better Christians and how to walk in your callings, destinies, and witty inventions that we have deep inside of us but sometimes don't quite know how to tap into and walk in. But GOD! It is in his wisdom along with an open mind that we will get through this together. Amen! So I welcome you my brothers and sisters!

Cynthia Good, CEO of Little PINK Book, Offering Empowerment at the Lady of Purpose Conference

Lady of Purpose Conference promotes the advancements of women leaders while providing cutting-edge, purposeful solutions for your life and business.

Cynthia Good, CEO and Founder of Little PINK Book, Amongst a Host of Women Business Leaders Offering Inspiration and Empowerment at This Year’s Lady of Purpose Conference

Atlanta, GA, May 11, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Lady of Purpose Conference promotes the advancements
of women leaders while providing cutting-edge, purposeful solutions for your life and business.

Women in the twenty-first century have made tremendous progress. Many now occupy roles that
used to be dominated by males, such as heads of major organizations, running powerful business
units, high profile public figures, entertainers, professional athletes, ministers of the gospel and the
list goes on-and-on. Even though the role of a woman has changed in an ever-evolving society, the
purpose of the woman remains the same. The power of a woman is not only measured in her
ability to incubate the human race, but in her ability to be an incubator of purpose. When
a woman understands how to be an incubator of purpose, she expands her capacity for
purpose to birth life back into her style.

Thus, the Lady of Purpose Network deems to celebrate the accomplishments of women who not
only rock the world, but also birth the world. The Annual Lady of Purpose Conference is designed
to bring like-minded women in business and in ministry together under one roof to collaborate with
others who have paved the way before them.

PUSH Your Way!







Anonymous...

A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might.

So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down; his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all of his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain.

Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: "you have been pushing against that rock for a long time, and it hasn't moved." Thus, giving the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man.

Satan said, "Why kill yourself over this?" "Just put in your time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough." That's what he planned to do, but decided to make it a matter of prayer and take his troubled thoughts to the Lord.

"Lord," he said, "I have labored long and hard in your service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?"

The Lord responded compassionately, "My friend, when I asked you to serve Me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you have done. Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push.

And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed. But, is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back sinewy and brown, your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard. Through opposition you have grown much, and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. Yet you haven't moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. This you have done. Now I, my friend, will move the rock."

At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He wants, when actually what God wants is just a simple obedience and faith in Him. By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God who moves mountains.

    When everything seems to go wrong ... just P.U.S.H.
    When the job gets you down ... just P.U.S.H.
    When people don't react the way you think they should... 
    just P.U.S.H.
    When your money is "gone" and the bills are due...just P.U.S.H.
    When people just don't understand you ... just P.U.S.H.!

    P=Pray
    U=Until
    S=Something
    H=Happens

New Program: 30 Day Personal Purpose Management System (PPMS)



“When faith replaces doubt, when selfless service eliminates selfish striving, the power of God brings to pass His purposes.”
― Thomas S. Monson

www.ladyofpurpose.info

 

Hi Everyone! I'm coming to you with an exciting NEW program we will begin to launch on Monday! It is called the 30 Day Personal Purpose Management System or PPMS just for women!

This system is designed to move you beyond the scope of seeing purpose as a passionate use of gifts and talents. It's designed to help you answer life's most challenging questions about purpose in order to build a strong philosophy of purpose, develop a character that's influenced by purpose, and discover how to let the influence of purpose rest on your gifts and talents. It takes into consideration that the discovery of purpose becomes easier when you are an active participant in the process. This is a 30 day process that includes 30 questions that you must answer to discover a greater purpose for your life! Only choosing a membership level as low as $5.95 is needed to join! All you have to do is click on the link that's above and sign up to be a part of discovering purpose like never before! If you've ever had a question about your purpose, by the end of the 30 days, you won't have another one. Decide to go on this journey with us!


 

But wouldn't you love to see a little bit of what we offer before this program starts? I know I would. Right now, you can get access (if you have not already) to a 7 day FREE access member pass inside the Lady of Purpose Network Portal to see what it's ALL about. :-) You know how we are! We want to view things before we decide. Now you have the chance! Click on the picture below. Then comment below with your name and email address and I'll send you a username and password into the network portal, just in time to have a day or two of the 30 day Personal Purpose Management System. I bet once you get started, you won't want to quit.


It's all a matter of what actions you are willing to take to move yourself from a place of mediocrity to a place a purpose. There is no time like the right time, NOW, to act.

Everyone wants more money right? We can be passive all day long and say, 'We're good. We have what we need to meet our needs. And that's enough.'

Anyone who's BUSINESS-MINDED will know that you need money to reach your hands in order to not only leave a legacy for your family but to reach those at large who need our message or service.

So today, I am starting a video series on ways to spruce up your professional marketing material in a way to see a profit in your business. It's times out in doing what seems to be all the right things but nothing to show for it. Learn these simple, but valuable tips that will skyrocket your business and make you look good!

 
Do you see the wealth transfer? I do!

An exciting new business venture I've partnered with!


As many of you know, I've been a writer and author for a number of years. I've had book signings, seminars and workshops on writing and publishing, been interviewed on radio and TV, and even had contests in order to promote my books. But nothing can be as good as a marketing tool as Empower Network.


I've recently learned of this opportunity through a friend on Facebook. I'm an avid Facebooker and love learning new methods of business on there. Well, this one at first, was like any other, or so I thought. Upon looking at the corporate website and seeing all of the products they had to offer, one stuck out to me and I realized I finally found what I had been looking for. 'A Viral Blogging System'. It had all the bells and whistles and allowed me to do what I love...writing and blogging, but also set up an online business platform for another service I do...edit and proofread manuscripts and other documents (another online hustle :-)). So I said, "What do I have to lose? It's only $25 to start and $25 a month to maintain and use the system."



Well, all I can say is: it works! Not only do I get so much more traffic (because of the viral component of the system) but I've received many more sales from my editing business! I guess that $25 was worth it after all, huh?


So what do you receive when you purchase this product?

  • Simplified, complete blogging and internet traffic system
  • Design structure that is optimized for marketing conversions,  
  • High converting lead capture pages 
  • Full web hosting and free system upgrades 
  • Full access to your leads and customer database 
  • Full Fast Start Training series to educate you on how to start getting results by participating in our marketing platform 
  • Access to our weekly training calls to help educate you on getting results.  

Again, ALL for $25 a month!

All you have to do is have a niche, a passion, a topic or topics in which to write about, write it, and publish! There you have your blog! Then watch the traffic come to you! Look at my Empower Network Blog that I use for my business, UpgradeU Writing and Editing Services!

Why am I writing about this business that I've partnered up with? Because I know how leery any business can be, especially one that claims to be a home-based business. But know this: you tried others only to see yourself losing hundreds, maybe even thousands of money, spinning your wheels at something you've never tried before. BLOGGING, everyone does, and if you haven't, once you try, you will see how easy and fun it is, especially when dollars start coming to your bank account, even while you sleep. I'm glad I was introduced to this business, and I plan to bring others to it as well.

To learn more or to even purchase your blogging system,  click on the picture in the middle of this blog post, or click here --------------> Empower Network Blogging System!

Till next time...here's to your success!
