Please do not reply to this message if you're just going to say that I'm stupid. I am not. Just because I am a woman and am a natural blonde does not mean that I lack intelligence. I am just naive about some of the people in this corrupt, dishonest world. I worked for a company that shall remain nameless who promised that I would be paid a dollar per word on a series of articles. I didn't suspect anything because the company said they were hiring 50 different writers from all over the country. They said they pay upon publication date, which was six months after acceptance. They said they only pay by check and required my home address, social security number, checking account number, age, weight, cup size, home phone number and race. I sent all of that information in and then wrote 300 articles for them. Not only have I still not received payment but I have also been the victim of many prank calls late at night. I realize there's nothing I can do because I signed a contract that says I can't take any legal action against the company, even if I don't receive payment (I signed in good faith). But I thought I should let you know my story. I can't tell you the name of the company because I signed a contract stating I wouldn't talk publicly about the company even in the event of non-payment. So my hands are tied. It's times like this that I lean on my Lord Jesus Christ. He will judge the liars of this wicked world.

I understand Terri. It seems that a lot of people have to deal with scammers and liars in the online world. And we might often wonder why do bad things happen to good writers? Well you see that's where we have to adjust our attitude. We might say well God let this happen, God let me get scammed by a client. But it's not God, God doesn't want us to be scammed. It's Satan's world. And Satan is the one that wants us to give up! He wants us to stay down! He wants us to take away the glory that belongs to God and to just flush it down the toilet! But see, we see through his machinations of evil, don't we brothers? We praise the Lord Jesus! Because the Lord Christ pays his writers on time, you feel me? Keep holding strong, Terri.

I'm just going to tiptoe out of here and pretend I didn't see this. There are the liars, the scams and the ram-bam thank you, ma-am's. You can't go through life believing everything everybody tells you or you'll just end up walking through a sewer.

Now see I think, I say I think, I hear the name of the Lord being called. Can we say praise Jesus? Praise the Lord Jesus there are still some of us who believe! Now I say, I've been through publishing tribulations. I been in problems with my publishing company. I been taken the advantage of. I say I been out and discouraged and at the bottom of my rope. I say I been not believing and waiting to die --Save Jesus like the miserable man that I am. But then an angel came to me one day and he say, Domino, he say, you remember this much, child. You is what you is. And I said to myself what that means, what the Lord teaches me is that I am what I am. And I am a man who does the will of God in favorable season - and is that all? I said in favorable season and in troublesome season? Do I hear ya? In troublesome season I still preach. I still do the Lord's work. I still praise Jesus and I endure all the vanity of Satan's world. So to all you who was speaking heres, Miss Terri that whore who praised Jesus and turned away from her immorality. I say if Miss Terri was a whore but turned away from her life of willfull sin, who am I Reverend Domino that I can't do the same? Am I no better than a Whore, I say, God, am I no better than a woman, I say God. You are no better you are a man, says the Lord Jesus! I say yes Reverend yes-
I got to go eat dinner now. I'll be back for more later. Praise God.
