Give Praise Through it all....

5/24/2015

It is important to worship God in good and bad times. Some of us stop worshipping when troubles and trials come and get us down. But that is the time when we need Him most. We are at our weakest when tribulations appear in our lives, and at that moment many of us tend to separate ourselves from the only one who can revive us and give us the strength to get back to life. We become so weakened, discouraged and perhaps embarrassed by our situation that we pause our worshipping. It is important to give thanks in all things and through all things. Give thanks for the bad times, because you will gain strength through it. Give thanks for the good times, because you were able to overcome the struggles.

Never allow your struggles to get the best of you and separate you from the love of God. Rejoice through it all. When your life seems like it is falling apart, give thanks. When things are in disarray, give thanks. Mighty is our God, mighty are the works of His hands. He gives life and He takes. He can put your life back on the part it is supposed to be on. Don't give up on your praise. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. Be bold in your worship and believe in your ability to overcome through Christ Jesus.

You are not Forgotten.....

5/23/2015

God has not forgotten you, neither has He given up on you. You may be going through it now and He may seem far away, but I guarantee you He is right there with you. After all, He promises never to leave us, He promises to be right there with us and for us. If you can't feel His presence, or you don't hear Him directing you, try reaching out to Him a little harder. Try to listen a little more keenly. When we hit rock bottom in our lives, and we realize that no one understands what we are going through, that is the perfect moment to develop a deep personal relationship with God. Because in that moment it will be just you and Him, and in that moment you most certainly will hear His voice. You will hear His voice because you have blocked out everyone else.

So if you are going through it and you have reached out to Him, and you are lacking a response, you may need to reach out some more. Shut the door on any interference while you are reaching out to Him. You cannot hear Him when you are busy listening to everyone else. God works alone, and when He speaks you must be free from any and all distractions. He will not compete with anyone else. He is with you, waiting for you to give Him the needed attention. Focus on Him today, so that He can deliver you from whatever you are going through.

Waiting for your Blessings?

5/22/2015

We are all waiting for something to materialize in our lives. For some of us it is a job, relationship, business opportunity, etc. Some of us have been waiting for a long time and we have wondered if it will ever come to pass. Some of us have totally given up on the idea that it will happen. Asking for something requires us to be patient and have faith. When we lose our keys we continue to look for it until we find it, we don't give up on locating it because we know we need it in order to drive to our destination. If we have the patience to search for our keys, why don't we give the same patience to our dreams?

I believe that if we truly desire something, we will be patient and wait for it to come to fruition. Our blessings may take time to come to pass because we are simply not ready to handle it. Some of the blessings that are coming our way are so big that it requires us to be mentally prepared to handle it. For us to be ready, God has to work on us. We may believe that we are immediately ready for our blessings, but God knows best. Be patient, know that in due time you will be blessed tremendously. God is prepping you for something great.

Character Counts....

5/21/2015

What does your character says about you? Our character matters. What we do and say have a lot to do with how we are viewed by others. Always be your true self in all you do. Don't put on a character that is not you, in order to seem like a part of the crowd. Continue to grow and develop into you and not someone's idea of who you are. Be respectful of yourself and others. Be true to you and be able to recognize yourself at all times. Don't lose yourself trying to keep up with everyone else, or trying to be someone else. Be yourself because you cannot truly be anyone else. You are the best you when you be yourself, others may try to emulate but they cannot duplicate.

Continuously search yourself, do this on a daily basis. See your faults for what they are, and work on becoming a better being. Don't neglect yourself by focusing on the errors of others. Focus on your faults and the possibility of eradicating them. It is possible to turn your life around. So should you find that your character is different from who you know you are, work on closing that gap and start the process of eliminating what is not you and embracing all that is you. Start making your character counts.

Don't Undermine Yourself....

5/20/2015

Be your biggest cheerleader and supporter. Don't be the one responsible for killing your dreams and destroying your character. Build yourself up through entertaining thoughts and speech which are aimed at elevating and empowering you. There are times when we go through some heavy things in life which leaves us at a place in our lives where we start to look down on ourselves, a place where we become so despondent that we are unsure of ourselves. Yes, it is normal to feel down and out when you are hit with some heavy things, but don't give those situations power over your entire life. You have to rise up and take a stand.

Seek to build yourself up from where you are. Rebuild yourself and your life to a place that is greater than where you were before. Believe in yourself and your capability to overcome and achieve. You weren't created to be self destructive, you were created to achieve and excel. Chose a lifestyle that will elevate you, chose environments that will help to strengthen you where you are weak. When we go through tough situations we gain strength and wisdom that we can use to help us be better and wiser. Cheer yourself on today, cheer yourself on to a bigger, brighter and better future.

Seek God's Acceptance....

5/19/2015

What a world this would be if we lived the way God intended for us to live. We would have the peace and clarity many of us need. We would be free from the bondage of sin and shame. We would know that the only acceptance we need comes from God alone. Many of us seek acceptance from man; when you seek acceptance from man, you are giving them control over your life. Your life was given to you by God, He did not place your life in the hands of another being. You were created in His image, and imperfect as you are, He still values you and loves you. He still counts you as one of His. Look to Him and seek His acceptance. He will lead you right.

Seek God and He will give you the confidence you desire. When you receive God's love and acceptance you will never crave the acceptance of others. He will fill you up with self-worth, He will educate you about self-acceptance. You will learn how to grow in grace and candor. You will be able to see yourself through the eyes of Christ. Seek his acceptance today and begin to grow into the dynamic spiritual being you are.

Make God a Part of your Life....

5/18/2015

As we begin this new week, begin it with a purpose. Don't know what your purpose is? A good way to find out what your purpose in this life is, is to develop a personal relationship with God. God will lead and direct you to your purpose. Don't go through this life without having God as your lead, because the road you will travel is filled with obstacles, the terrain is rough and filled with holes; there are a lot of unfortunate situations on the pathway and having God as your lead will help you to maneuver through it all.

When you include God in every aspect of your life, you are paving a path that will guarantee that you will make it through every situation that is designed to stop you. He is the way maker, therefore He will make a way for you even when it seems impossible. All things are possible when God is in control. You cannot go wrong with Him, so make Him a part of your life today.

Wise up......

5/17/2015

Get up, look around you and at what is occurring in your surroundings. Are you happy and content with things as they are? Is your current surroundings and colleagues conducive to your growth spiritually or otherwise? If no, then it is time to wise up about your life and your lifestyle. Adjustments are necessary in order to make progress in your life. It is time to rise up and shake off the dust that has you buried in a state of stagnation.

Sometimes we need to dis-associate ourselves from certain situations in order to grow. Take a look around you today and make the necessary changes where needed. Wise up!

Enjoying Life is Dependent on you....

5/16/2015

Your enjoyment of life isn't dependent on who is with you or not. It is dependent on you, on how you chose to view whatever is in-front of you. Be in your own corner, support yourself and stand up for what you believe. Don't depend on acclamation from others to bring you joy, satisfaction or fulfillment. Rise to the occasion. Know who you are and be confident in who you are, once you do, no one can take it away from you.

You cannot fully enjoy life if you sit around worrying about what others think or say. You cannot enjoy life, when you place your very existence in the hands of mere human. Place your life in the hands of The Creator. The sooner you know your worth and value, the better off you will be.

Freedom....

5/15/2015

Freedom is a mental state. Many of us are physically free, but mentally we are enslaved by things of the past, by others who control us, etc. To truly set yourself free, you must release everything that you are holding onto that is burdening you down. Release yourself from toxic relationships that have control over many aspects of your life.

The sooner you acknowledge that your life is yours, the sooner you will be free. Free yourself from bondage, free yourself from drama. Be free today and live the life you were given.

I believe knowledge is something we gain through our life
experiences. These experiences may seem similar to what others may go
through, but each one of us experiences are unique to us; they are tailored
specifically for us based on our strength. Regardless of the differences, I
truly believe that we can help each other with the difficulties we face by
sharing what or how we were able to overcome. I, myself have been through a
variety of difficult times and I will utilize this platform to share such
moments and how I was able to pull myself
through.

I choose to use this platform to focus on women and the wide variety of issues and
triumphs in our lives. This site is to provide healing, enlightenment,
motivation, encouragement and all that envelopes the desire to succeed
regardless of what we may face.
