Mother's Day!!!!! (5-13-12)

Less than one week to Mother's Day! Moms do so much, they deserve to be honor at all times as the Lord says they should be. I am glad there is was a special day given for us to honor our moms nationally annually. This week we will be posting some things pertaining to MOM.

The purpose of this national holiday is to recognize the contribution of mothers and strengthen family bonds. Mother's Day was proclaimed as a national holiday on May 8, 1914 in the United States by President Woodrew Wilson. The establishment of this day of celebration can be credited to Anna M. Jarvis (1864 - 1948), who wanted to honor her mother's wish for a day of observance for mothers. When the young Anna Jarvis listened to her mother wish during a Sunday school class on women in the Bible, there was no day of observance for women. She started a campaign to fulfill her mother's wish two years after her mom died.

God Bless our Mothers!!!

Enough said!!!!!

Reach Out To Others!

Lord, grant me a heart of compassion so burdened for others’ needs that I will always show your kindness in my attitude, word, and deeds.--Someone out there may need a friend today, someone to listen and just be there, someone to give them a word of hope and show them we care. There are many in this world void of these things and more. Let us reach out when we see others hurting and in need of these and let us reach out to them in a mighty way all to the GLORY OF GOD!

BE YOU!

The devil is a liar.

The devil is a liar!!! Don't give up or give in. Your life is valuable, you are of worth. Why settle for scraps on the ground when you can have the finest from the Master’s table. You are more than a conqueror. If God be for you who can be against you. The lion is on the prowl seeking to see whom he can devour. Don’t give the enemy ammunition to destroy you. He is waiting for you to be off guard so he can stick his foot out and trip you up. Don’t get it twisted, he is not looking to elevate you or present anything of good to you because the truth is not in him. The only position he desires to see you in is flat on your face and down and out. Continue to stand, hold fast, pray without ceasing, and be ready to reap the best that God has for you in your due time and season.

Love one Another

The proper measure of our spiritual condition is shown by the quality of our lives, which is measured by such attributes as lowliness, gentleness, patience, and how we bear with one another in love. All of the afore mentioned is a good indication that we are moving toward God’s goal for us...Ephesians 4:12-13

Our love for God can be measured by our love for others.--DB

Dana Marie Neal: Revisited

This month, the first of 2012 the spotlight is again on Dana Marie Neal. She is a life and business coach as well as Motivational Speaker. She has been encouraging others to live beyond their current expectations since rededicating her life to Christ in 2005. She is the Founder and President of 4, My Kids, Inc., an organization created to help students who do not meet the 4.0 criteria obtain scholarships to attend college, and help families eliminate debt; owner of C.K.Q Gifts, which celebrated 12 years of service in February of 2011. Dana is excited about what God is doing you can see this upon viewing the entries in her “E.s.s.e.n.c.e (Edified Saint Saved to Excel the New Birth in Christ Exalting the Lord) of a Women” Blog. Dana Neal is a woman you can surely say has not let any grass grow under her feet. Since last interviewed back in November 2007 she has certainly grown and expanded her ministry even more than it was in the past almost four years. Woman2Woman Lounge has reconnected with her for this interview. Together let us read what changes her life, business and her ministry has taken.



W2W: Dana tell us what new things you have been doing these past couple of years outside of C.K.Q Gifts and E.S.S.E.N.C.E of A Woman.

Dana: Things have surely changed. I have revamped the businesses and put some on the back burner. C.K.Q. GIFTS is now a part of C.K.Q. LLC and is on hold while I move in the spiritual direction God has for me. I have listened to God and have been building my ministry FAM (short for Family) 4 You Breakthrough Ministries (with On Bended Knee Praying Wives Club and Rare Jewels as sub ministries). I have also been working diligently on being a lifestyle and business coach with Building You w/Coach Dana (a division of C.K.Q. LLC)

W2W: Tell us about your book "No longer a Victim".

Dana: No Longer a Victim is my testimony. It’s my life as I see it. Anyone else might think it’s a fabrication (as they have shared with me) but I know the real deal. The book is a look at my life without holding much back. The Holy Spirit helped me write the words and complete the book in a way that every situation I went through will help others to get through.

W2W: Have you set any new goals for your business and or ministry in 2012?

Dana: I will be traveling for business and ministry in 2012 and prayerfully leaving the 9-5. Both entities will present webinars and conference calls to build and there are also more books to finish!


W2W: Many have resorted to using Facebook to minister to others which I love because a lot of people use social networks to do things not to God's glory. Do you have any links to other pages you oversee other than your personal page that you would like to share with us?

Dana: Sure! I love doing online ministry because you reach the MASSES!

W2W: How do you overcome adversity and stay encouraged to continue doing
what you do?

Dana: I have to stay in prayer! I can’t stop. There are too many attacks on my life both in the natural and the spiritual, yet, we know that no weapon formed against us shall prosper. I lean on God and understand that HE is in control.


W2W: When you experience periods of burnout as we all do and need periods of rest what scriptures do you meditate on in God's Holy word that refresh your spirit?

Dana: I truly listen to gospel or jazz (instrumental) music, and allow the Spirit to speak to me without a cluttered mind. Recently, I just finished reading the Bible in 60 days and the clarity I have received from that has given so much to “relax” on and in, that I am truly comfortable. Nehemiah 8:10


W2W: Describe what a full day of ministry entails for you Dana Marie.

Dana: A full day of ministry is posting in my groups for the daily bible study, answering questions, ministering to them the true gospel meaning, not the man-made doctrine that people have been poisoned with. My Full day of ministry is really sharing what GOD IS SAYING and not what Dana is saying.


W2W: What legacy and lessons would you like to pass down to your children in helping them grow in Grace?

Dana: I want my children to learn to lean on God and not on man. I them to understand that only HE can direct them, save them, help them, and bless them and know that even life will present its problems God is their one and only. I can’t teach them with mere words out of my mouth, I can only teach them from my actions.


W2W: What can we pray about for you in this New Year?
Dana: Pray that I keep renewing my strength to walk in my calling.

Dana Thank your for your time and giving us new perspective on what God has been and is continuing to do in your life. God Bless you, your family, your businesses, and your ministries.

Happy New Year

Welcome 2012, hallelujah God has brought us into a New Year. I hope everybody's Christmas Holiday was a blessing! "New Year, New Things" is the motto of The Woman2Woman Lounge this year! We have been on somewhat of a brief hiatus as far as our interviews go but never sleeping on the job when it comes to ministering to the women of God and the men as well. I am looking forward to seeing what God will be doing not only my life, but the lives of others he will have my path cross with. Wishing good health and prosperity for all in the continued year. We will start off this year by revisiting some of the women I have interviewed in the past since TW2WL was formed in 2007 to see what continued and new things God is doing in their lives. I have not stayed completely disconnected from these ladies and have not seen much of any grass growing under their feet. With many social networks available for a platform to share the word of God with others and be a light for him in this often cold and confused world these women are continuing to keep busy in drawing others to Christ and uplifting, teaching, an edifying one another. I hope you will continue to keep your eyes on my blog and read along with others as we continue on our journey in a new year. God Bless you all and your families and thank you for your continued support of The Woman2Woman Lounge.
