No Hair! April 2007




Hello everyone, 



I finally managed to trawl through the hundreds (yes hundreds!) of emails from the Lockitup Group on Yahoo, that I managed to amass over the last few months.

One topic of interest was a recipe for deep cleaning locks, involving ACV and Baking Soda. Ingredients below.

Having locks is an absolute JOY! All my people notice and love the thicker, healthier, fuller body. 
Most of all pampering myself by caring for them is a hobbie in itself.
Its not just locks/hair products that I PJ on, I have a skin care addiction too! 
I love variety, therefore I have a lot to choose from, I think hard about what my locks need at that moment on that day.

Unfortunately, something else now marks that time..

Yet another one of my colleagues has passed away, suddenly. Out of respect for his family and his memory and privacy, I will say no more than that. Tomorrow school has been closed as a mark of respect.

"Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe"

(Proverbs 29:25, NIV))

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Fear is one of the enemy's favorite tools to keep us from going forward in our lives. As soon as we make a decision to step out in faith and do what God is telling us to do, immediately the enemy will bring fear.

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Bishop Keith Butler 
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. 2 Corinthians 4:15 (KJV) 

Do you know what time it is? It is time to give God thanks because He is your Deliverer! In the time of trouble, you have to abound in thanksgiving to God. Thank Him for protection.
