Flashback 2001: 910 + 911 = Emotional Rape

Stanice Anderson — Sat, 11 Sep 2010 13:57:09 +0000

These are the unaltered entries that I made in my journal before I cried myself to sleep on the nights of September 10th and 11th September 2001.

September 10, 2001 My husband left me tonight…but life goes on…God being my helper. I will not be defeated!! I will not worry…for it changes nothing…My God promises that He will supply all my needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus. I will stand on that Word. Yes, I cry for what is lost. I cry…but only when I focus on my situation without factoring God into my situation. But with God, I know that all things are possible! Because Jesus is alive and real…I know the end of this story…I WIN!!!!!†

September 11, 2001 The scene is so horrific, surreal, and apocalyptic. The World Trade Center Towers, the pentagon…airplanes crashed into these buildings. Towers actually collapsed! untold number of people dead, maimed, missing, in hospitals, trapped…there is chaos in America…satan is celebrating as is his job to manipulate us to seek, kill, steal, and destroy each other. My God, come soon Lord Jesus….mankind is not doing well on it’s own at all. Reports of mothers and fathers killing their children…signaled to me the beginning of the end to life as we once knew it…i knew it had to get worse. And today…it has… All that has happened today…makes my concerns seem scrawny and trivial.

So my husband left me last night…I sit here typing—updating my website in the comfort of my home. Many, because of the events of this day, will never come home again. I mourn not for the seeming death of my marriage, but with my nation…my people…the hopes, dreams, lives lost. And I cry with those who love them whose lives will be forever changed because of the events of this day. God strengthen, hold in the palm of Your hands, those that will be unable to sleep tonight, those who are crying out to you for mercy and to bring their loved ones home. Please give us what we need at the exact moment that the need arises…the things that we need that we cannot give to ourselves like peace in the midst of the turmoil, your perspective, courage, and fearlessness. For you have not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind. And, God thank you that you will render justice on behalf of your people.

Sometimes, Truth Hurts!

Stanice Anderson — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 23:12:19 +0000

(first posted on prior blog, August 4, 2010) Hey there, Water Walkers:

Minutes ago, I visited Novelist Rhonda McKnight’s FB page as she shared about her mom crying when she received copies of her new book, An Inconvenient Friend.

Tears of joy. I love it! Gives me hope; but surprisingly, also, brought up pain.

You see, my books are nonfiction. In my case, my mom still spews displeasure, hate, and venom anytime my last book, I Say A Prayer For Me, is mentioned, comes to mind. Recently, she let me know that she doesn’t want to see the new one or anything else I write. It hurts. But write on, I must.

She also doesn’t want to know anything about me speaking anywhere. If I never got another opportunity to speak it; she would love it. But God opens doors, and I speak on. I must.

Now, writing this—my feelings—my experience, I feel censured by some whispered unwritten rule created to rise up against my voice steeped in what have become my greatest allies, TRANSPARENCY and HONESTY.

While I’m living within the my passion and I believe God’s purpose for my life, it alienates me from the woman who birthed the woman I was destined and designed to be. Out of respect and to keep the peace, with the one woman I love above all women—my mother; what I do, is unspoken. Sometimes, it’s best to understand rather than be understood.

Sometimes, truth hurts!

But to acknowledge and embrace who God has called us to be; we must acknowledge and let go of who we were when, by Grace, He chose to extract us from the dark and into His marvelous light. The moment this wonderful new reality hits us, this grace and mercy that we’ve so freely received, we give up the world’s way—of secrets and sequestered lies that we thought were keeping us afloat and who we really were hidden from the world. Instead, we yield to what no eye has seen or ear has heard—the blessings of a saved life; the wondrous plans and purposes for our lives, as sifted gold through the Fingers of God.

But God’s truth always sets FREE!

Calling all Water-Walkers and Water-Walker Wannabes:

Are you an Inspirational author, speaker, performer, business owner with inspirational products? Consider this.

I purchased an eblast to 211K book club members from http://goodgirlbookclubonline.com yesterday–to roll out my new book, Walking On Water When The Ground Ain’t Enuf. I buy eblasts with Good Girl Book Club periodically to promote my Inspirational Speaking, One-Woman Show and my other book, I Say A Prayer For Me. It has really help put me on the global map. I’ve sold more books and secured speaking engagements as a result of the exposure through Good Girls. I find it a blessing to buy when on sale and have them hold a space for me until I’m ready to have blasted.

When the owner, Marina sent me the email below today. I thought that perhaps you or someone you know might want to seize this promotion opportunity and sweet $89 deal to boot.

Normally, Good Girl Book Club eblasts to its member list of 211,000 potential customers cost $249 but by mentioning that I referred you it will cost you only ONLY $89.00.

Email goodgirlbookclubonline@gmail.com and mention "Stanice Anderson referred." They will then send you the correct sale price link so that you can make your purchase.

Hey Stanice,

We’re trying to help as many inspirationalists with the eblast special.

We’re sold out but I feel guided to ask you if you know 3 people

who could use this valuable low cost opportunity that you

can get to say yes? If so, we will do our best to squeeze

them in. $89 is a steal and people who are serious about

moving forward will figure out a way to make it happen.

Do you know 3 inspirationalists – authors, business owners, etc

who are serious? Please, send them to us.

Marina

Patrice Gaines, Author/Former Washington Post Reporter says…

Stanice Anderson — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 07:00:54 +0000

“Stanice Anderson adheres to the credo of writing instructors: “Write what you know.” What she knows is how to walk on water. She had the faith to walk away from drug addiction, even when there didn’t seem to be ground under her feet. She reached a hand to the sky and was lifted over sinking sands. Her words will make you soar above whatever is holding you down. Consider ‘Walking On Water When The Ground Ain’t Enuf,’ a boat built by years of faith. Open the book covers and hop on board.” Patrice Gaines, Author & former Washington Post Reporter
