The Beautiful Pain

Living a righteous life can be very painful. So intense at times, losing friends that you thought was your, Gayle, as she is to Oprah, finances fluctuate, your mind changes for the best but at the time seems so confused, as you're going against the concepts of the world. It can be lonely and weird at times. However, my friend, this is what you call the pruning and edifying stages of your walk. How you respond will promote or bring you back to the same process again. We serve a compassionate growing God who loves evolution. He wants us to evolve into the masterpiece he created us to be. We all should understand this process of pruning isn't comfortable in fact, many will say it hurts. 

Just as we exercise it is not comfortable but we endure looking forward to the results of looking lean, tone, and fine. That is the whole concept of the pain we endure as we grow as Christians. Often times we scream and cry in church Lord use me and Lord I trust you with all. Until we are put in a situation he creates us to utilize what we pray to Him. How can you trust God fully if you're not put in a position to do so? We must remember we serve a God who takes words very seriously. We are founded on his word and everything was created in his word.

I just want to encourage you today to stay encouraged and stay focused. Don't confuse your process. God will never promote you and encourage you to do good to hurt and abuse you. He wants the best for you and his tactics we may not understand or agree with but ultimately is the best for us. I have tears in my eyes as I write this because I know how it feels and often reminded by my lack of proper responses to face the same mountains again because I don't get it right at first sight. But I have mastered the art of believing God and understanding the concept of how he is challenging me to become everything I have prayed for. I am not the same person I once was mentally and internally. I actually put myself in uncomfortable positions at times to see his hand. That is how intimate he and I have become.

Job endured so much but his latter was better than his beginning. He was sold out and he loved God through everything. (James NKJV 5;10-11 My brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and patience. Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord- that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.)

Affirmations: It is not over it has just begun! God can not lie!

    Good afternoon my sister. Your Blogs really have spiritually helped me out. I'm was loss but now I'm found. God has truly changed my life when I decided to turn my life over to him. I'm more happier than I've ever been. I've to pray and believe and have Faith That God will deliver on time. Not my time but his and I'm great with that. My Faith in him is my is where my power and help come from. When I gave my life back to him, the weight that had me held down begin to lift. The shell of all negative, bad, sorrow, despair and so much negative begin to crack and the chains begin to fall. Family and friends who I thought would be there was not and the peace that I got reassured me that if I follow the Lord many would not be in that walk with me and I was okay with that. I put Jesus first in all things now and I see great change in my life. I still have a ways to go but as long as I pray and stay on the path that God has for me I can and will make it. I've stopped driving and chose to let God take the wheel. No matter what route he choose to take me in I'm OK with it bcuz I know in my heart that it's going to be the right path. I'm happy in today because I because my God kept me alive long enough to turn my life back over to him. Oh what A great feeling to be his child again. I just take it one day at a time and pray and read my Bible. You sister are A big part of this change. I can't thank you enough for your prayers, encouraging words our talks and more importantly you praying for me and with me. God Bless You Sister, I Love You Continue To Keep Me And My Family In Your Prayers As I Will Continue To Keep You And Your Threeteam In Mine

No Matter What!

No Matter What! Life will throw you some major curveballs just to see how you will respond to it and God will seem silent testing you to see if you have enough faith in him. To be honest the whole ordeal can seem overwhelming. You may feel like me at times and want to pull all your hair out. Confused and scared to make the wrong decision, this is the moment I suggest you breathe and ponder like I do. I stop everything and pray and wait to get revelation on what to do. I have learned from Abraham and Sarah that when I feel hopeless and inpatient not to make a swift decision that can birth an Ishmel. The anointing does come with a price despite what churchy folks try to say.  I say this because now you are being attacked by the devil and his minions. You're fighting flesh that all of the sudden resurfaces hard and your emotions seem out of wack as well when you are pursuing purpose. I may not have all the answers, but one thing, I am confident in,  Jesus is real and ...

Your Life Can Change In Seconds!

Your Life Can Change In Seconds Close your eyes, inhale and exhale now open your eyes, that is how fast everything in your life can change for the better. We serve a God that is a waymaker and a miracle worker. It only takes one word from him. However, I must be honest with you. If you are not prepared for the abundance that the suddenly will cause then you are doomed. You see, I feel like we should be preparing ourselves for what we are praying for. We should be confident and educated in what we are desiring from God. Preparation will forever be the key to our success. I want to encourage you to be praying for wisdom and understanding so you will know how to handle whatever comes your way. This will allow the blessing to never be a burden. As your life changes in seconds, you will be able to carry the weight of the miracle. I think about Paul and Silas chained and bound in jail as they sang hymns, the prison doors opened. (Acts 12;3-19) You see that was a sudden breakthrou...

Release The Grief!

Release The Grief! The pain that we endure by people we love is the most painful experience ever. I don't know about you, but I can feel it in my bones and my heart aches when experiencing this kind of pain. Being hit from a blind spot not seeing it coming from that individual. I don't know if it hurts more because we didn't expect it or because who the oppressor is, either way, it hurts. As I am growing more each day spiritually, I am learning it cost me more to dwell on it. I push myself to show that person love and not the phony cordial type, I mean the same ounce of love before they offended me. People are not obligated to treat me in an exact manner that I expect. That is my expectation for them, not theirs. Don't get me wrong I expect respect but when a person offends me, most of the time it's because they didn't do something that I wanted them too. Some cases, for some people, it can be very different and traumatic circumstances. Still, when you think ...
