Number one praise this Thanksgiving, my son is home from Iraq! We missed him so much last year. Wishing all a very blessed Thanksgiving!!!!Nasıl: müteşekkir Perşembedevamı
I try to post a verse for each day on my bulletin board. If ever you miss the post, you can look in the scroll box below for the verse for that day. Please feel free to post them on your own bulletin board. I enjoy looking up my own verses for the day, rather than using Bible Gateway or any of the other Bible verse sites.

Speak of all His wonders.
Recently a quote came around the Internet that said, "Sharing your faith is simply telling people your story about Who loves you and what He's done for you." (author unknown) This is what I try to do with this site and the devotional writing on my blog. I also have a blog at http://dedicatedwriter.blogspot.com There are links to some of the other social sites on which I have profiles there. Below is a scroll box with links to old blogs since the blog box that comes with the profile only lists a few. Please let me know if any of the links don't work.
BLOG ARCHIVES )
PERSONAL BLOGS (testimonies, original writings, devotionals etc.)
............
I enjoy Bible study, writing, drama ministry,
gardening, reading, research, cooking, crafts, history, genealogy, listening to music, writing e-mails, admiring God's creation. . . I have some picture albums in my pics that reflect some of my interests, if you are interested enough to look at them.
You Are A Lily
You are a nurturer and all around natural therapist.
People see you as their rock. And they are able to depend on you.
You are a soothing influence. You can make people feel better with a few words.
Your caring has more of an impact than even you realize.
I like most genres of music, except hard and heavy metal rock. My favorites are Contemporary Christian Worship music, Southern Gospel and Country Western ballads. I also like show music (musicals, etc.), jazz, classic rock, easy-listening and classical.
I discovered the project playlist site last year and went crazy creating playlists. Here is the link to my site www.../user/3333195

DEDICATED'S DETAILS
I hid my details box because originally the zodiac sign was not an optional category. I asked myspace to change that, and I think they have. I believe the astrological interpretation of the constellations to be inaccurate. Since that is what most people associate with the zodiac, I wanted it removed. However, as I reflected on some of the things myspace thinks my friends need to know about me, I decided to write my own "Details" section.
MARITAL STATUS: Living happily ever after married to Prince Charming!
HERE FOR: Sharing the love of God!
ORIENTATION: Well, lets see, I am VERTICAL when I am standing, HORIZONTAL when I am prone, and in between when I am sitting!
SMOKE/DRINK: No, I don't smoke drinks or drink smoke! We do like to smoke chicken and other meats out in a smoker grill on our patio sometimes. And I do think hydration is very important. I try to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. I also like fruit juice, herbal teas, yogurt smoothies, etc, and sometimes when I'm really bad - ginger ale!
BODY TYPE: Oh, no -THAT is way too personal!
ETHNICITY: A descendant of Adam and Eve!
RELIGION: In a relationship with God!
CHILDREN: Proud mama of two great guys!
EDUCATION: Bachelor of Arts from Baylor University - Sic 'Em Bears!
OCCUPATION: Handmaiden of a King! Devoted wife and mom; freelance writing and public relations consulting.
INCOME: Rich in the sufficiency of God!
Well that's it for the info Myspace deems important for ya'll to know about me. But it seems they have left out the most important fact, so I am adding another category.
ETERNAL STATUS: Child of God, redeemed from eternal separation from God, by His grace, through the death of Jesus Christ on the cross for my sins.

WHO I'D LIKE TO MEET ON MYSPACE
I love people. I think one of the best things about heaven will be that all these fleshly considerations and prejudices people put on relationships will no longer exist and we will just be able to see each others' souls more clearly. That is really what I look for in people. To me it doesn't matter what someone's sex, race, nationality, income, education, etc. is. To me what is important is who they are inside. I especially love to share what God has done for me with others.
I particularly enjoy meeting other brothers and sisters in the Lord and learning of the victories they have in Him. Sadly, I feel the need to also mention here that if you are a male seeking to flirt with women, please do not add or message me. I am not on myspace for romance and take my wedding vows very seriously.
My "Top Friends" are other myspace sites I manage . I have too many "Myspace" friends to post all on my "Top Friends." But I am in the process of putting them into categories to help you find sites of special interest, such as pastors, minsistries, and awareness sites.
ABOUT COMMENTS - PLEASE READ BEFORE LEAVING A COMMENT
I enjoy getting comments from my friends. I especially like Scripture verses and poems. However, I have discovered that too many graphics slow up the loading of my page, so I had to set my comments on no html.
Please do NOT send me CHAINS anymore, even the ones that are prayers. While I appreciate the sentiment, I do not have time to send these around and still pray for everyone on my list. I am getting so many of these that I just can't respond to all of them. If you want to leave the message, then please just delete the part that says to pass it around. Thank you so much!
In the name of Jesus,Father I am asking you in the name of Jesus to minister life to me today,I am struggling in my life today,Father I am asking you to bless me with miracles in my life today physical healing miracles,emontional healing miracles,financial healing miracles,and spiritual healing miracles,In the name of Jesus and by the blood of Jesus Christ,Satan I get great pleasure in telling you to get out of my body,mind,spirit,soul,family,home,realtionships,my future,finances,and my life,Satan you have no right in my body,mind,spirit,soul,family,home,realtionships,my future,finances,and my life,In the name of Jesus and by the blood of Jesus Christ,Jesus you are my great physician,Jesus you are my healer,Jesus you are my deliverer,Jesus you are the source of all of my needs,Jesus you are my provider of all of my needs,Jesus you are my lawyer,Jesus you are my judge,and Jesus you will take care of all of my needs,In the name of Jesus,Thank you Jesus I give you all the glory,honor,and praise for the blessings and miracles you have given me and are doing in my life each and everyday In the mighty name of Jesus amen!

People need people and friends need friends And we all need love for a full life depends Not on vast riches or great acclaim, Not on success or on worldy fame, But just in knowing that someone cares And holds us close in their thoughts and prayers- For only the knowledge that we're understood Makes everyday living feel wonderfully good, And we rob ourselves of life's greatest need When we "lock up our hearts" and fail to heed The outstretched hand reaching to find A kindred spirit whose heart and mind Are lonely and longing to somehow share Our joys and sorrows and to make us aware That life's completeness and richness depends On the things we share with our loved ones and friends.

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD OF MY LIFE!!!
This site is dedicated to the Lord Jesus Christ, who has been Lord of my life since January 1, 1972. It has no other purpose than to glorify Him.
The photos in this slide show were taken in 1988, the first time I performed an original dramatic monologue based on the Biblical account of Mary Magdalene's witness to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is one of the joys of my life to perform this piece at churches as an act of worship. Posted in my blog is a video from a presentation of it made on Easter Sunday 2006. It is about 11 minutes long, so if you don't have time to watch it today, please come again. I would appreciate you not posting it on your page, blog or bulletin board without my permission. I would like to add that I post these pictures and this video and information not to bring attention to myself, but to glorify God for giving me the privilege of being His instrument and presenting the joyous news that - HE IS ALIVE! HE IS RISEN! HE IS LORD! HE IS COMING AGAIN!!!
In 2007 I was interviewed twice on Cross Connection the blogtalkradio program produced by Pastor Jim Reese of Cross Divine Ministries. Here is the banner/link if you want to listen to the two archived programs from August 17 and August 30. You have to subscribe to the program to get the archives, but it is free.
My name is TammyLou, but I think it's fun to have a screen name, so call me Dedicated.
I am a happily married woman with two grown sons, of whom I am very proud. In my spare time I do a little freelance writing. My husband is a prince among men who shows me daily how much he values me. Our marriage is a testimony to the power of God in our lives and what can happen when two people are passionately committed first to Jesus Christ and second to each other. We are currently working on a book about Christian principles for a successful marriage.
We have not had a trouble-free life, but one full of the struggles and temptations which are common to man There have been times when we wanted to call it quits. But Christ was there to strengthen us through His power (1 Cor. 10:13). If you are reading this I would ask you - are you plugged-in to the ultimate Power Source? Are you living a life of victory during trials and temptations? If not, I urge you to seek Him in His Word, the Holy Bible.

When I first put up this page in December of 2006, I did not give a lot of information about myself, as I wanted the focus of this page to be God and what He has done for me. However, I found myself answering the same questions over and over again in my mailbox, so I decided to add a little more about myself. Then it occurred to me that in doing so, I was not really taking the focus off of the Lord, because I am who He is making me to be. With everything I share about my life here on this page and in my blogs and pics, I am testifying to the power of God in my life. All glory for everything good in my life goes to Him.
I am an encourager and I strive to encourage all those God brings into my life. People, relationships and sharing the love of God with those around me are of primary importance to me. One of my life verses is 2 Corinthians 4:16-18. "Therefore brethern, we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing in us and eternal weight of glory far beyond comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are unseen are eternal." Each day I learn more about which things in life are simply "temporal" and which truly matter for eternity.
The slide show below is posted in memory of a special person who showed unconditional love to all she met, my sweet sister-in-law Janice Marie She was challenged by Down Syndrome and Altzheimers while on earth, but is now healed in body and mind, safe in the arms of Jesus. What a joyous reunion awaits us in heaven!
I am a woman of PRAYER!
I am a great believer in the power of focused intercessory prayer.
Here is my fervent prayer for all who visit my site. Ephesians 3:16-18 "I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ"
Please feel free to leave a prayer request in my comment section or send it to my mailbox. Be as specific or general as you like. I will pray for you as soon as I receive it. Don't forget to come back and leave a praise when you receive your answer. I also try as often as possible to stop by the sites of all my friends and focus in prayer for them. I call this my prayer rounds. At one point, I was using my top friends as a prayer list, but now with the "categories" feature myspace added I have made Prayer Rounds Categories. I try to pray for 120 people a week. I will leave you a note to let you know I was there. When I first began doing this, I could do my whole list in a few days. Now it takes me a few months. So I don't leave daily comments, but when you get a comment from me you will know that I have spent time praying for you.
Prayer Request: When you read this, please stop for a moment and say a prayer for my son and all our troops around the world.
..
"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Amen."
If you have a photo that would fit well in this slide show, please send it to me, I found most of these on photobucket.
Kneeling Soldier Statue in Iraq
This statue currently stands outside the Iraqi palace, which is home to the 4th Infantry division. It will eventually be shipped home and placed in the memorial museum in Fort Hood, TX.
The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who for years was forced by Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted Baghdad.
Kalat was so grateful for the Americans liberation of his country; that he melted 3 of the heads of the fallen Saddam and made the statue as a memorial to the American soldiers and their fallen warriors.
Kalat worked on this memorial night and day for several months.
To the left of the kneelig soldier is a small Iraqi girl giving the soldier comfort as he mourns the loss of his comrade in arms. Why don't we hear about things like this in the news?
......
Please pray for Missionaries, evangelists, and all those in full-time Christian service. Here are a few for whom I am praying:
Bruce Chadwick Illusion Ministry http://www.illusionministry.com
Child Evangelism Fellowship
Student Mobilization
Jews For Jesus
Gospel For Asia

Lord, so often times, as any other day
When we sit down to our meal and pray
We hurry along and make fast the blessing
Thanks, amen. Now please pass the dressing
We're slaves to the olfactory overload
We must rush our prayer before the food gets cold
But Lord, I'd like to take a few minutes more
To really give thanks to what I'm thankful for
For my family, my health, a nice soft bed
My friends, my freedom, a roof over my head
I'm thankful right now to be surrounded by those
Whose lives touch me more than they'll ever possibly know
Thankful Lord, that You've blessed me beyond measure
Thankful that in my heart lives life's greatest treasure
That You, dear Jesus, reside in that place
And I'm ever so grateful for Your unending grace
So please, heavenly Father, bless this food You've provided
And bless each and every person invited
Amen!

People need people and friends need friends
And we all need love for a full life depends
Not on vast riches or great acclaim,
Not on success or on worldy fame,
But just in knowing that someone cares
And holds us close in their thoughts and prayers-
For only the knowledge that we're understood
Makes everyday living feel wonderfully good,
And we rob ourselves of life's greatest need
When we "lock up our hearts" and fail to heed
The outstretched hand reaching to find
A kindred spirit whose heart and mind
Are lonely and longing to somehow share
Our joys and sorrows and to make us aware
That life's completeness and richness depends
On the things we share with our loved ones and friends.

Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving thanks.
1 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
2 Worship the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the LORD is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his [a] ;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
