2004 was the worst year of my life.  I lost both parents.  August 13, I lost my house in Hurricane Charley.  Now, here we go all over again.  It is just starting to rain, and the outer bands are just starting to come into good ol' Punta Gorda.  I have Peace.  God is here with me.  I feel his love, and I know with all my heart he will get me through this.  I don't want to re-build again.  But I become stronger with my trials.  My faith grows stronger because I have to put my trust in him, He is all I have! Granted I have a great husband, and lots of friends, but they didn't make the heavens and earth, They didn't create a plan to save the world by coming to earth as a saviour. And their advice can't compare to the divine guidance we get daily from the Holy Spirit. 

So deep down, yea I'm scared. But he also knows, I am scared and he is here with me protecting, guiding, and loving me through this.  Keep us all in your prayers, they are saying it shouldn't be too bad, but then they said that about Charley, and Charley went from a 2 to a 4 in 2 hours, and made a right hand turn that took out this entire area.

Thanks you Guys!

It was my usual trek into work, and I stopped for my usual McDonald's tea.   Went into McDonald's saw my usual girl coming out of the restroom, looking pretty upset.  I said "Good Morning" and she started to cry.  The night before she had just got paid, went grocery shopping and got mugged and robbed.  Now, she had no money, no food, and had 2 weeks to go before she got paid again.  Plus the crook had all her personal information. Cause he took her purse too.   Poor lady was fit to be tied.  I ran out to my car, got $40 and gave it to her.  The emotion was overwhelming.  She was so grateful.  God was in that $40, and she knew it.  I went back in to see her again on Thursday, and she told me "I haven't forgot you and the money I owe you, I just want you to know that."    God was in my mouth, in my heart, and in my mind when I said "Don't worry about it.  As a matter of fact, ask God to lead you to someone who needs that $40, and pass it on.  Whether you do it in $5 increments so what, just pass it on!"  I don't want it!  God brought me to you that day, Let him bring you to someone else, that you can help.  Once again the emotion was overwhelming.  So this was a different kind of Junk in The Trunk.  But I am learning about having a Servant's Heart!  Ya know what?  The more I give away?   The more I get to give away!  I love serving our God!  Loving Jesus! and Being Lead by our Holy Spirit! I wanted to share this song I learned in college that fits this perfect.

It only takes a spark to get a fire going.  and soon all those around can warm up in its glowing.  That's how it is with God's love, Once you've experienced it.  You spread his love to everyone.  You want to pass it on.

What a wonderous time is spring, when all the trees are budding.  The birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming.  That's how it is with God's love' once you've experienced it, you want to sing it's fresh like spring, you want to pass it on.

I wish for you my friend, this happiness that I've found.  You can depend on Him, It matters not where you're bound.  I'll shout it from the mountain top!  Praise God!  I want the world to know, the Lord of Love has come to me, I want to pass it on.

Love you Guys!

He rolled back the waters of the mighty Red Sea, and He said " I'll never leave you.  Put your trust in me."   I was on a traveling Christian team in 1976, that was one of our songs.

Today was a great day.  It was my Friday.  I took yesterday off just because I didn't feel like going in.  God and I did 3, I say 3 Junk In The Trunks today.  That my friends, is a record.  We made 7 kids feel valued, loved and the Holy Spirit touched their little hearts, as well as their parents, in ways, only our Lord would understand.  These kids were so jazzed!  That is the only word I can think of.  Smiles, hugs, Jesus, and changing lives. 

I love it!

You guys still are the best!

I love you all!

For all of you who purchased Arbonne from me to help my cancer kids.  Thank You.  We together have helped 3 families in Texas.  1 family lost their child and are now living in their car.  Another family lost their health insurance, and the mom lost her job.  The 3rd family is in the Ronald McDonald House, and needed a place to stay, so we all helped with a local motel until they got into the Ronald McDonald House.  Arbonne has become a vehicle for me to help others where God is leading me.  Because my radio job, doesn't pay much.  Being in Arbonne has become a lifesaver.  It has become my main income for my cancer kids, and my junk in the trunk. ( I give new toys to kids having a bad day)

If any of you guys would love to be on my change the world team.  Email me:  KraftNation@comcast.net   

Many of you have asked where you can buy Arbonne's products from me:  http:kandicecappello.myarbonne.com

Thanks Again!

What a day!!!  Things went so well today!  I didn't make a zillion dollars.  But I walked my day with God and was lead by the Holy Spirit in way I haven't felt in a long time.  I listened to Casting Crowns and Signature Sound, all day.  When I was not listening to my music, which speaks to me and is a daily worship, like......Well I am speechless, How amazing these songs touch my heart, and I feel God's presence.  I was asking our Heavenly Father for direction.  I got it.  I made new friends.  Not everyone bought radio, but I was so filled with God's love, No one said NO!  I feel so grateful.  Glad to be Alive, If I can't be in Heaven, I want a walk that is so Spirit Filled, I want to spread the Love of Jesus.

That is what my everyday is about.

Later!

Love, Kandy

For a couple of weeks now I have been struggling with finding my Promptings from God.   For those of you who have been following my posts, (I thank you) I have been working with giving new toys to kids at the prompting of God.  I also do sticker greeting cards for people God leads me to.  Well the voice inside me, I was no longer hearing. People he wanted me to touch, and make a difference with, nothing.

I became so wrapped up in my personal issues, my job, money, house payments, life, the list goes on.  Like I mentioned in my previous posting, I got totally wrapped up in the materialistic side of the law of attraction.  Once I got through that, I needed to take those concerns and stop focusing on them.  I needed to give them to God, and say YOU, figure it out, because I can't.  I am tired of trying.  So Lord....... HERE!

I also hate excercise.   But my body is struggling with some major health issues.  God  has been trying to get me to excercise.  Nope. Don't want to.  Later.   Well, He won the battle.  I started to excercise, and not only am I feeling better, there is no longer an argument going on inside me.  He asked me to do 2 things on Sunday.  I did. 

HOW SLOW AM I?????????????

 I Thank him for his forgiveness, his unconditional love, and his overwelming patience.

 I have felt his presence all day.  I just love it.  His wings have carried me all day,  I am feeling blessed.

Lately, God has felt far away.  I haven't felt his longing to send cards, no Junk in the Trunk, it has been a lonely road.  I wasn't sure why.  Then we had a long talk.   I have been ignoring him on certain things.  I also began reading a book called the "SECRET".   I started to focus on greed, and getting all those material things that the book talks about.  I was choosing material things over Him!  Bingo!!!!  Granted God wants us to live comfortable, he does want us to be happy and have material things.  But he want us to Love him and let him provide.  He want us to love others too.  When we focus on money, we are worshiping that false God.  When we trust him and focus on him, things come to us because he provides.  When we focus on what we want, we lose our focus on him, and everything becomes be-fuddeled.  Trust me! I just went through major be-fuddelism, and it was not fun.

I haven't blogged here in a while, because I wasn't being lead to write. Another thing I just couldn't be inspired.  I was Befuddeled!

Love,

Kandy

How do we pray?  I have to share with you.  I talk alot, and when I drive I pray non-stop.  Sometimes I feel God cracking up with me, laughing.  Sometimes I feel him crying with me, if I cry.  Sometimes we just listen to his Signature Sound, Gaither Vocal Band, or Casting Crowns.  God loves music too.  I am on the road all day with work, and because I pray, I love my job.  Keeping him the focus of my day, make things go so much easier.  The best thing is the way he brings me believers as sales reps, customers who are believers, and people just in day to day conversations who are believers.  Then I come home and I am in such a good mood.  Because God was with me all day.  Taking the day off.  I miss our time together, and boy do I notice it.  The God who made Heaven and Earth, all of us, is with all of us everyday, all day if we want.  Isn't that amazing?  Everyday I wonder, why are you here with me?  Am I that special?  You know, We are that special! 

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a Holy Nation.  A people belonging to God that you may declare the praises of Him   who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.  1Peter2:9!

Is that the most incredible piece of information ever?  Psalm 139 is probably one of the most incredible Psalms in that entire book.  For someone who has tried to run their life without God, for so many years, and have made the  mistakes I have made.  Putting my life in danger, taking risks, living on the edge.   Grateful now that I am alive, because I was so stupid.  Through it all he was silently carrying me.  Protecting me, because he had plans for me.  Like the Prodigal Son, I was definately his Prodigal Daughter.  Now that I have come to my senses and God is leading me and I am listening everyday..........How did I do it without him?  How blessed I am.  How much more successful I am at work, when I listen to his leadings and promptings.  How he laughs with me when I am praying, and I say something totally off the wall.  I feel him laugh in my heart.  It's something so incredible to feel this kind of love.  Truly totally unconditional!  God really has a sense of humor!!  Now that I have a daily walk with him...........He is working my tail off.  "Everyday share my love", he says.  I am having so much fun, I can't wait, to see what each day holds.  Rejoice in the Lord Always, Again I say Rejoice.

 I am alive tonight because God was my Pilot!   I just got home!  I went to a Networking event for work.  2 clients of mine combined forces after I introduced them.  They did a networking event tonight together.  That in and of itself was pretty cool!

The weather was raining, Lightning so hard, I'm blessed only by God's grace that I was not a direct hit.  The sky was flashing angry bolts of light.  Quite frankly!  I was terrified.   God's calming Spirit came into my car, and said, I am here, just keep your hands on the wheel. and I will drive!  He Did!!!!!!!!!  How cool for us to be children of the Almighty God,  where he inhabits our car and drives it for us.  No kidding, I was Hydroplaning so bad the waves were coming over my car!  The road was flooded, I had no place to go but straight.  Not a good thing, except the Holy Spirit was in full force.  That was a good thing, and I know God saved my life tonight.

Now I need to go to bed, and just rest, cause I am just exhausted.

Love you all,

Kandy
