 I will be a guest on the Audrey Chapman Show (mental health talk show that airs on WHUR, Howard University Radio) this Saturday, April 4, from 9-10 AM. The show will deal with the impact of a new report issued by DC HIV/AIDS Administration stating that the disease has reached epidemic proportions in the District, with heterosexual women being the most impacted. Tune in be empowered! You can stream the station online.  http://www.broadcasturban.net/index.htm

2 Chronicles 20:15-21 (NIV)

• 15.
• He said: “Listen, King Jehoshaphat and all who live in Judah and Jerusalem! This is what the LORD says to you: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s.
• 16.
• Tomorrow march down against them. They will be climbing up by the Pass of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the gorge in the Desert of Jeruel.
• 17.
• You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will give you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.’ “
• 18.
• Jehoshaphat bowed with his face to the ground, and all the people of Judah and Jerusalem fell down in worship before the Lord.
• 19.
• Then some Levites from the Kohathites and Korahites stood up and praised the Lord, the God of Israel, with a very loud voice.
• 20.
• Early in the morning they left for the Desert of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, Judah and people of Jerusalem! Have faith in the LORD your God and you will be upheld; have faith in his prophets and you will be successful.”
• 21.After consulting the people, Jehoshaphat appointed men to sing to the LORD and to praise him for the splendor of his holinessas they went out at the head of the army, saying: “Give thanks to the Lord, for his love endures forever.”

 Okay, so now I have started my annual “clean up your act it’s spring-time” effort. I have vowed to clean out my walk-in closet (previously my last child’s bedroom), and donate clothes to my church’s outreach, start my spring colorful flower garden, promised to walk two miles at least three times a week (ride my bicycle the other two weekdays) with my sister and friend, and check in with my life coach once a week. How am I doing? Just like a new year’s resolution…I need discipline to continue, or motivation. To quote my girl Wendy, “How YOU doin’?”
