Emotions & Feelings...

As women, our heart is full of emotions that can sometimes feel very overwhelming and can lead us into the wrong directions in our lives. Our feelings and emotions can detour us off the right path when walking into our destiny.

Jeremiah 10:23 I know, O LORD, that a man's life is not his own; it is not for man to direct his steps.

Things in the world are so temporary and that includes our emotions. Our feelings are temporary. Yes, shocking right? Not really. One minute a person falls in love and within that same day finds love somewhere else. Is that possible? Can that be true? The answer to that is yes. Why?  Our emotions can easily change towards people based off the wrong look, person says the wrong thing, or you become offended by something or someone.  We are human beings and our flesh is so easily moved by any and everything sometimes. It's surprising how our emotions can change when the situation changes in our lives. For example, when it rains outside, seems your mood changes just because it rains. You don't want to go to work, school, or do the daily activities you have done for years. Rain, can change our emotions!


My mother told me, When making life decisions, you can't trust your feelings but you can trust your Spirit! Your emotions can take you as my sister says to, " A Beautiful Place but a Bad Situation," meaning it looks good from your point of view but when you step back and look at the BIGGER picture it is a bad situation in the long run. My mother always taught us as women to step out of a situation look at it from someone else's point of view. What advice would you give a friend? Take yourself out of it.  To be honest it is hard to take our heart out of things.  To not get offended, hurt, or upset. That is why we must trust our Spirit. The spirit of God that speaks to us daily if we will just listen. We must also give our heart to God. He asked for it.

Pr 23:26 My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.


If there is doubt in your Spirit then God just gave you your answer but there are times you need to change your prayer in order to get an answer from God. Maybe your not asking the right questions or praying the right way. You must take the time to ask God to give you a clear understanding. Daily ask him for wisdom and knowledge in just every life. There is not a time we do not need God's wisdom and knowledge in understanding things in our lives.

Proverbs 16:9 In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.

That is why we can not rely on our emotions and feelings in times of trouble. We must remember that standing on the promises of God is standing on a solid rock. God's words never change! He has always been the same since the beginning of time. He will never leave you nor forsake you! We must stay rooted and grounded in the word of God in order to know his voice when we hear it. Seek the Kingdom of Heaven in everything that you do.

Living Holy, Who said it was Easy...

 












In a conversation with another sister in Christ, the comment was made that living Holy isn't easy, because of all the sin in the world everywhere you go. Well, I can agree it is not easy especially for someone new in Christ. Many of us see people doing it everyday and you wonder, How do they do it ? or Do they ever get tempted?

Psalm 101:1-4

I will sing of mercy and justice;
To You, O LORD, I will sing praises.
2
I will behave wisely in a perfect way.
Oh, when will You come to me?
I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3
I will set nothing wicked before my eyes;
I hate the work of those who fall away;
It shall not cling to me.
4
A perverse heart shall depart from me;
I will not know wickedness.

Yes, everyone gets tempted, but you do not have to give in to temptation. Even the devil tempted Jesus while he was fasting. And to say your never tempted isn't true, because we are flesh but everyone may not have the same temptation.  One person may not feel tempted in one thing while that same thing could be a temptation to someone else.

Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
We must learn how to rise above temptation and separate ourselves spiritually & naturally from ungodly things that will tempt us.

Ps. 37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.

We might even have to release some friendships that seem to bring us back to the past we are giving up for Christ. Yes, that is hard, to give up years of friendships just to maintain a Holy lifestyle. I want you to know that God will send you friends with the same belief and thoughts as he and you. They will be people you can pray with, sing praises with, and enjoy God with them as well. You will no longer feel you have to hide your beliefs to keep a friend. If they are real friends they will respect your lifestyle change and not persecute you.


Sometimes it seems like your losing a lot but actually your gaining more than you can imagine.  

 Matt. 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Also to keep a solid foundation in Christ you must stay in your word. You have to keep reading the Bible and learning the steps to being like Christ. The Bible shows you how to live with sin all around you and be above it.  When you are feeling tempted to slip back, you will have the word of God hidden in your heart and able to repeat God's word in times of distress or weakness. You can even use it to help friends and family, you know will benefit from God's wisdom. 
 Psalm 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.


As women, we have to break free from ungodly relationships and not enter into relationships with gentlemen who look good but we know their not good for you.  The feeling of loneliness will try to come up on you but again you will rise above it. 
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Rise above your emotions. Rise above your flesh. Rise above and be lifted up. Why? Because you uplift the name of Jesus he will continue to elevate you!

1 Corinthians 11:32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

Jesus has been the best example of a disciplined person in life. If fasting was needed, He Fasted. Prayer needed, he prayed. Time to teach, he taught.  He was always quick to move when the word of God was given, spoken, and heard. When you read the life of Christ, you can see how important disciplined lifestyle is for men & women of God.


Proverbs 25:28  A person without self-control is as defenseless as a city with broken-down walls.

Real Love...How do you know?






So How do you know?..... if it is well Real?!?!?!

It's  funny how you go to a restaurant and I, myself, love Coca Cola, and it puzzles me when asked by a waiter or waitress, What do you like to drink? I would say," well Coke" and they would say, " Pepsi?" or " RC?" as if there the same but it is not the REAL thing. It doesn't taste the same and the exterior isn't the same. It is more like the generic form of Coke. I do not take any substitutes or look-alike to the real thing.


One thing I have learned in my relationship with God is REAL love. Last, Sunday at church, God's loves overflowed the atmosphere and I felt his anointing shower love on me. This love can not be written about in movies, it is not scripted, or man made. His love sometimes feels unexplainable to those that have no relationship with him but yet we try day to day to help others understand this love is real.

His love is pure. It is without blemish. Just as our Worship to him should be. His love is without judgement but does come with rebuke, consequences, and order. Yes, God does let you know your going against his word and truth but he does it with grace and mercy.

Yes, his love does not lie. Unbelievable isn't it? With lies being spoken to you everyday and played out for you on television. You can trust him at his word. He left his word so we would have a resource to carry us along our journey with him and to try to bring an understanding of his love. His word is an example of his love.

His love is unconditional. He shares his love with you even when your undeserving. When you deny him or when you do not recognize who he is in your life and ignore his call out to you. He loves you! He showed us his love in giving his life then rose on the third day and he had not met you yet! But he did it. He did it for you and me, sisters, brothers, cousins, aunts, mom and dad.

His love is forgiving. He forgives but we lag in our forgiveness. We even come up with reasons why our UN-forgiveness is justified as if we can change but others can't. He laughs and we call ourselves one of his own. Yet, we can't let go of the past to SOAR in our future. Then we wonder why our blessings are held up because we blocked up with UN-forgiveness.

His love is action. We can see it. With every sun rise and every sunset, his love is visible to us so how can we question it? But we do. Was his death not enough? Was his pain not enough? He wakes you up every morning. That is his love in your face reflected through the mirrors. His love.

Real love is tangible. Real love is brings joy with every new day with HIM. Real love is roughing it through the storm together. Real love is not associated with abuse physical or mental. It is not forced but is given willingly.  That is why I willingly surrender to Praising him and Worshiping him in spite of everything else in the world. Real love requires communication. Real love starts in friendships.

Real love accepts you. Real love expects great works from you and works you; not against you. Real love has memories you can smile about the next day and years later. It is comforting. It isn't perfect but worked to perfection by the word of God.

Real love requires work. It is built on a solid foundation and let me tell you...God is the only ROCK I know! So, build on him, not on you, they, or them because when you build on him, you & him with God, will stand. When your sick, real love takes the time to get you back to health.

Real love taught by God can be exhibited in your smile, eyes, walk, talk and lifestyle. Real love doesn't separate you from family or friends buts draws you together through thick and thin but it can not dwell with sin.

Real love brings abundance, elevation, promotion, peace, joy, strength, endurance, health, faith, trust, and overflow.

Wait for God to teach you and show you his real love. His Fresh Holy Anointed LOVE.
You would never settle for any substitutes once you have surrendered to his Real love.


Be Blessed

I am a work in progress....

Yes, it is true,

I am a work in progress. I have not arrived to some ultimate level of superiority, that I do not make mistakes or have any faults.

 I am a work in progress. I am not there. Is anyone there? I mean there. It takes time and Christ to learn how to get past your flesh and people. The enemy is always looking for ways to attack you or if not you, someone near you is used to get to you but we must learn how to "step" over those emotional fleshly temptations.

I am a work in progress. I make mistakes.  I am being perfected right in front of your eyes through Christ as well as you are in front of me. You are watching me and I am watching you. Everyone is watching each other, concerned with them noticing there mistakes or slip-ups.

I am a work in progress. I am surrendering my will to the Father. He is molding me to his creation for his glory. His artistry is priceless and effortless but necessary in my growth. I was once bound to society, family, friends, and people but through him, I have found freedom to soar as an eagle. He is my only judge but I am to follow him and lead others to him.

I am a work in progress. I am making changes to my life everyday. I have changed my attire, my matter, my talk, my walk, and my friends. I have changed how I spend my time and whom I am spending my time with as well. I am changing the purpose behind my conversations; do God get the Glory or this just MY story?

I am a work in progress. I am no longer the tail. My eyes have been opened and no longer am I blinded by the glamour of the world. “Charmers” no longer fool me and I am now an encourager to myself. I am confident in him and I am bigger than they because of HIM.

I am a work in progress. I have access to greatness. I am royalty in his Kingdom and rich beyond your wildest dreams. A roaring lion does not scare me anymore, nor does a lying tongue because I am more than a conquer through Christ Jesus, I have my word with me, and his words carry all power.

I am a work in progress. I am no longer stubborn. For every argument I walk away from, God rises up in me, for every fight I turn away from, God rises up in me, For every apology I give and never ask why, God rises up in me, Every time I hold my tongue, God rises up in me.


I am His work in progress and His work In Progress I shall BE!

I am accountable to God. God uses me. I am a vessel for God and he is steadily working on me daily. Be patience for his works are breath taking and priceless.

Your worthy of MUCH more... So Why settle?

Waiting... Waiting... Waiting...


So your waiting for Mr. Right to find you, come, and sweep you off your feet, for the music to play as you go running on the beach or a field to each other. Magical right? Too bad life is not a pre-scripted movie. You do not know the next scene and that he is not Mr. Right. The emotions are not played out but their real. Your a real person with real feelings and it is not always a happy ending. Especially, when your doing it your way or on your own and when you settle for Mr. Right Now, Mr. Convenient, or Mr. A-Okay. Are you not worth the wait? Can you not wait for God to Bless you with his connection? Yes, you can!
Hebrews 12:2 
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;...
Your an amazing person. You have accomplished amazing things with God. Your independent, compassionate, and a blessing in the making. You are worth the best. So, why you keep settling for less? Yes, your waiting. Yes, it seems long and you can become impatient but you have come too far to just BE with someone just to past the time away. There is so much more you could be doing with your time and emotions. Waiting isn't easy especially when your young and it can be even harder as you get older. God blesses those that wait. 

Psalm 37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 

Wait and let God connect you to your other half. Yes, society is always in your face telling you, "Your getting older, Life is passing you by, Your too picky, No one is perfect." Does that mean you have to lower your standards, ethnics, morals, and desires for someone who doesn't have the same faith as you? Noooooo.. God is the one who set the standards within you. He made you that way. He made you with high hopes, dreams, desires,and goals. He gave you ambitions. He enlarged your territory and built your faith in him. Only God can bring them down or take them away. Only you can let them go.

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

The virtuous woman...Her Price...
You can't buy her with material things. Though she looks like a million bucks. She loves the Lord with her whole heart. Yes, she walks as a queen but  has a heart of a servant. She strides with confidence and smiles with assurance. She dresses herself with a royalty appeal. Her hands are blessed. Anyone that knows her praises her character and personality. She is a blessing to her neighbors and friends. Her qualities are endless. She cooks, cleans, manages her house, has her own business, and makes her own money. If your not exhibiting these qualities, you better start to work on it now, because this is a lifestyle for her. Become that rare jewel that is worthy of the best that God has to offer.
 
In addition, fear is also a cause for settling. Fear of being alone. Fear of living alone. Fear of eating alone. Fear of never being loved or being in love. Fear, is always trying to remove your FAITH, trying to paralysis you and trap you but your bigger than that! God is bigger than that and stronger.Your worthy of much more.
 
Passage 1 John 4:4:
   Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

 Next you start to think, maybe its me, maybe I am the problem. Well if your exhibiting Godly character and substance then your not the problem. Let God prepare you for your spouse. It is in his word. Take your time to read the Proverbs 31 Woman. She is the example of a great leading lady.


Be patient as you wait. Be productive as you wait. Pray as you wait. Waiting isn't just sitting at the corner everyday looking for him to drop out the sky. You should prepare for him. How? By already walking and talking as a wife with Christ. Get involve in your local church and ministry. Start reading your Bible and join church organizations for women.  Stop sitting there making yourself miserable. Start making friends and spending time with them doing something positive in Godly fun. 

Never allow someone to use you, mistreat you, walk over you and lie to you. You are bigger, greater, and smarter than that. You know someone is no good for you yet you keep answering the calls, texts, emails, and facebook messages. Why are you checking their facebook to see if they have moved on? Come on now. Your bigger than that. Your worthy of much more.

Proverbs 18:22:
   22Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.

A good thing. Let's define Good...
 morally excellent; virtuous; righteous;
of high quality; excellent;  honorable or worthy; in good standing;
reliable; dependable;  financially sound or safe;  not spoiled or tainted
cheerful; optimistic;  skillfully or expertly done; favorably regarded;   
profit or advantage; worth; benefit:
moral righteousness; virtue
 
So if your not a GOOD thing or a GOD thing, which I like to use, than how can you expect God to give you someone your not even worthy of having?
 
Proverbs 12:4 A wife of noble character is her husband's crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones.

Interesting...

Are you honorable to have? Are you skillfully done in your apparel, make-up, and image? Can you be well displayed as a crown or should you be hidden like decayed bones? 
And when people see you do they ever have anything good to say about you. Are you a good thing to have or not?  Does God speak highly of you? Well you should make sure he does since he is the one doing the divine connections.  I know there are many who believe that one person can't be meant for one person but I look at Adam and Eve. I only know Adam and Eve.

Genesis 2:18 The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."

Remember when God is part of the connection the marriage is like a braid that no man can depart because God is in the middle of the connection. It is strong and solid. No, I am not saying there are perfect marriage because there are no perfect people but with God every shower won't be a storm and every whirl wind will be a breeze. Only if God is the source and connection in the marriage.

You are worthy of much more. You are worthy! Worthy!
