Are You Discontent

Are You Discontent?

Definition: lack of satisfaction with one's circumstances 

As children of God, we have to learn the mystery of contentment and its power over the restless tortures of desires. Most of the time if we are not careful our desires will get us in trouble because its all about what we want rather than what we need. 

Let's look at the whole story about Jacob, Leah and her sister Rachel ( Genesis 29), Jacob was impressed the first time he met Rachel and he waited seven years just to be with her as her father wanted Jacob to marry the elder sister Leah. Rachel knew how much Jacob loved him yet she was not satisfied as Leah was able to bear children and the attention was on her rather than Rachel, her true colours began to show through her discontentment period. She was jealous of her sister and even said to Jacob "Give me a child or i will die (Gen 30:1) meaning if i don't get what i want, i will do what i like. Sometimes we always think our desires is actually what God wants for us and because we think it or want it makes it right and seems like it's truly what we need. But newsflash and good news about God is that he already has our emotional address, all we have to do is rest and wait for these things to be delivered. 

YES! It is hard but the word of God says "But they that wait upon the lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up..... ( Isaiah 40:31). I've been there, several times I've cried and I've given up but guess what? I know that giving up will not get me what i want so i run back to God and asks him to teach me how to be content with the things i have. 

The spirit of discontentment can cause more than you think, you will begin to nag, fuss, moan about everything that is not going right for you, and the things you want but you don't have, you will look at yours friends and families and begin to think "How can they have it and i don't?" and my favourite of all "I worship God all the time but still he hasn't given me they things i want". Newsflash its not about you, me, us, its about God. Discontentment will cloud your judgement and will pull you into one dark big hole and it will make you feel unworthy. Learn to be still and wait on God because when we don't? We experience needless plain due to the fact that we are running ahead of God's format. sometimes discontentment is a coy of the enemy to stop us from achieving and really striving to get to where God wants us to be, as most of us always assume that our circumstances justifies current condition in allowing us to feel miserable.

One thing i have learnt is that God will not give you what you want because of your discontentment and if he does? It's just to show you that sometimes you don't need what you think you want. As Princes and Princesses of the most high we have to learn to cling unto God during difficult circumstances as he is trustworthy ( psalm 143:10) As christians God wants us to be content because we have everything we need under his care, sometimes it just takes that BIG patience. 

This is my testimony for the week, it is NOT over until God says so. 

Shalom 

Yours Truly

What's In Your Closet? (Clothing)

Definition: 

Clothes- "Item worn to cover the body" 

Now that we know the meaning and use of clothing why do a lot of people buy clothes and not use it according to it's purpose?? If clothes are meant to cover the body? Why buy it if you are not going to use it for its only purpose?

Does the bible really have a dress code? No however it does offer us the principles about modesty. but don't miss the principle. Ask yourself this question and be honest with yourself and God: Why do you want to dress the way you do? What is the goal of wearing a certain outfit? If you dress yourself in the armor of God first, it should help direct you as you put o

n the rest of your clothes.

Whether you believe in God or not, Your body is not your but God (1 Corinthians 6:19). Some may say it's my body and I'm allowed to do anything and wear whatever i want YES! But not everything is good for you, this mentality only means that you are making your clothes enslave you (1 Corinthians 6:12). 

As females, we have to understand something we don't need to be half naked to feel beautiful your confidence should come from knowing that the creator of heaven and earth took the time to make you, and you are fearfully and wonderfully made. (psalm 139:14). You can put on a pair of jeans and a nice top and still look beautiful,  Yes clothe protects us and our body from heat, cold but we have to respect our body in regards to how we dress. Adam hid from God when he was naked because he knew it was wrong for others to see him naked. Females stop polluting others soul, stop chewing on worldly fruits to stay naked (Genesis 3:6-7), (1 Timothy 2:9-10) states that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control). Young girls forget if your friends are doing it, and do not listen to you even when you tell them about their dressing, you know your morals in Christ. The bible says, do not behave as unbelievers, but today we have a lot of people who try to justify their dressing . 'let there be modesty in everything'. 

Ruth 3:3 describes how Ruth dressed when she was getting to meet Boaz( her future husband). She was covered! Nowadays females feel the need to show excessive body parts just so they can impress someone but news flash, guys may look at you but that where the imagination stops. You've exposed it all. 

Personally for me I've spoken to a lot of males on this topic and ALL of them replied with "no my daughter can't and will not dress like that" when I asked them would you let your daughter leave the house in a certain way, but they also said "there's nothing wrong with wearing it" FEMALES Do you see how contradicting this statement is, they won't allow their daughter in the future to dress the way you dress but when they see you, they like what they say. 

We say God sees my heart, well he surely does because he also sees the things you up before him, you know what he's said about dressing modest and you know what that means but you keep covering it up with "God does not look at my outer appearance", some circumstances YES!! But he looks at you as a whole. Believe that.

Sometimes your dressing will allow people to judge your gift. Should that be your problem? Absolutely. You know right from wrong so why do you continuously walk in the wrong path just because you know God can use anyone! Remember many are called but few are chosen. If you know the worldly things including the way you dress keep building a wall between you and God then stop it! (Psalm 33:13, psalm 11:4). 

Blessings!

Endurance

During the olympics the athletes trained, to develop muscles they trained with equipments such as weights, strapped to their legs but on the day of the events, just imagine how painful this process was for them but they did not give up because all they could think about was winning their Gold, silver medal and being a partaker of the event. on the actual event day, they did not have this weight because they had to strip off anything that wasn't essential. That's how life is, we sometimes cling unto things that we think are so important and we are scared to let them go. 

We all know the christian life is a race and in order to get to the finish line, we must eliminate anything that slows us down and hinders or even stops our spiritual growth, because without the holy spirit we are nothing.



 So what are you scared to do? Are you scared to stop listening to a certain genre in music, are you scared to get to know Christ and be saved? Are you scared of being mocked? Well good news sis/bro, you don't need to feel this way at all. In the book of Nehemiah overall, when the people of Jerusalem mocked Nehemiah and his men whilst they were trying to build the wall of Jerusalem, he was not scared, neither did he take his eyes off the mission he has been sent out to do, he simply replied saying "The God of heaven will make sure we succeed, we are going to work rebuilding it". 



They were not scared about what they were doing as they were making history, they were threatened, laughed at, cursed at but they did not stop because they knew their reward was with God, and this time it's not Gold or silver, its the EVERLASTING crown that awaits them in heaven. Nehemiah and his men continued to pray to God saying "oh listen to us, dear God we are so despised" No matter what the enemy throws at you bro/sis keep your eyes fixed on Christ and do not think much about the enemies plan. Be confident and in Christ like Nehemiah (Nehemiah 6:10-11).

During temptation we cannot allow it to change our attitude or commitment to God, when Jesus was tempted he did not treat people differently, neither did he give up, he kept his eyes on the cross and also his mission on earth. Maturity comes through trials, so whatever it is you are going through right now? Know that God is using this to help you by testing you, teaching you and training you. God is using these 3 T's to help you become what he wants you to be (Psalm 32:8)

Waiting on Boaz?

Good morning everyone, so I've been tweeting randomly today and i just thought i'd share few things with you all.....


Growing up, I misunderstood the whole concept of Boaz's job in the bible to be honest. Only recently I understood. For some of us "waiting for our Boaz?" I'm sorry but he is not coming. You want to know why? Because Boaz was for Ruth. No one else's. As followers of Christ, our eyes should only be focused on christ but at the same time God said "Ask and Ye shall Receive". so my point here is that if you are asking God to give you, your own man? that is exactly what you should do.. YOUR OWN MAN not Ruth's other half Boaz... Pray for your own person. His name could be Mathew for all you know and you're here screaming "God bring my Boaz" #TakeASeat. Please do not misquote my post for today as bitter or shallow, this is my own personal opinion and i am sharing my own views on this particular topic. God can bring your own man and he can have some of us Boaz's traits but it still won't be Boaz. Even if you get Boaz what makes you think he would treat you the same way he treated Ruth? We are all fearfully and wonderfully made differently by God almighty. The moral of this short post is to not WATCH other's people time to work with your timing. Our God is the author of time, he will work things out in his own time, which is always at the perfect time. "Be still and know that he is God" continue to rest in christ and watch him bring you the right bone.. 

Many Blessings

There is no shame In being a Christian 1 peter: 4

There is no shame In being a Christian 1 peter: 4

As Christians we all know that many are called but few are chosen, let's praise and thank God for the privilege of being called by his name. God the father knew you and chose you a very long time ago (Jeremiah 1:5). His spirit is what makes us holy. It's through his grace and mercy that we are born again. We now have great expectation and we have a priceless inheritance that is kept for us in heaven (1peter 1:4).

When we suffer as Christians because of what the lord has called us to do, let's rejoice in Christ because it shows that the persecution is a mark of God's approval of our work.. take John and peter for example, they were persecuted but they never stopped doing lord's work because they knew that their reward was in heaven and not on earth. Sometimes we hold unto the worldly things too much and we do not see ourselves the way God sees us. Christ himself was rejected by his own people while he was on earth but because he knew he was chosen by God for great honour, he carried on the good work and also because he loved us.

People see working for Christ as a job that will bring them much persecution yes this might be the case but also God blesses our handworks, he gives us joy. I don't know about you but I’m loving the persecution and the joy. Let's be glad because Christ chose us, he pointed and looked at you said “I WANT HER, HIM, THEM”. It's a blessing and a great joy to be picked out from so many people by God. It's like taking a ride with Christ, to know what his all about and to be what his all about. Talk about unlimited blessings..

When the world tries to bring you down, remember this, once you had no identity but now your in Christ, you are a royal priesthood, an heir to the throne, God's very own possession. You are made of light once you know this and believe this, there's nothing in this world that can make you fall, in-fact God will not allow it because he is our ROCK and fortress. As you are working for Christ he will bless you down to your roots, your family.

1 peter 2:21 “For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps. As followers of Christ we should not seek out suffering or even try to avoid it, instead allow the spirit of God to continue to direct you to keep doing what God has called you to do, regardless of the suffering it might bring.

Graduate as a Christian, Every time you stand up be a threat to the devil.

God bless you all

PRIDE

What is PRIDE?

A feeling derived from one's own achievement

Pride's Proverb

Pride goes or comes before a fall.... Proverbs 11:2 

what causes pride?

When God starts using you to save others, by showing you supernatural things and once they happen you begin to say things like “see I told you this would happen” NO hunny... God told YOU this would happen and you told the right person. We have to know the difference between humility and pride.

if you are too conceited or self-important, something will happen along the way that will make you look foolish. Pride is a SIN... it does not align with what God is about however being proud of another Christian's walk is in alignment with God's word.

As followers of Christ, this trait is not part of what God wants us to include in our personality as it will only lead to destruction. There's being proud of your achievement and then there's been conceited about it. You've got to know which is which.!

Pride can go a long way for instance: not talking to your spouse or friend because they upset you, and you refuse to be the first person to approach them or the situation. To move pride away from your heart there has to be compromise because without this we cannot all live in love (Ephesians 5:2).

Pride can and will bring you low if we think we can do everything by ourselves and along the way we could lose a lot of people that are dear to us. I use to get mad at God when he didn't do what I wanted and I’d ignore his callings, refuse to pray. THIS IS ALL PRIDE... but once I learnt about how pride can destroy me, I learnt to compromise and I asked God to forgive me and remove pride from my heart as this is not a Godly character.

Pride is the main killer of all humans mind, once you allow pride in, it'll be hard to hear God's voice, pride usually relies upon competition, and that it cannot exist without competition. It's always about you or me against another.

If we are not careful pride will prevent us from receiving from God, he sees our heart and if we begin to have faith in ourselves too much while God does something for us, this might prevent us from receiving from God. Now don't get me wrong, I’m not saying God will not bless you, he surely will but God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Remember God uses US and ANYONE for his glory NOT ours... His Glory shines through us... The book of Hebrew 3:19 “when I am full of myself I am empty of God” <<<<------- That's HOW much of a sin pride is. We need to learn how to acknowledge God's work in our lives rather than how we get things done because we actually cannot do anything without God's grace

Walk in his Grace.. and Ye shall be lifted Up Through his strength NOT Yours- GOA™

God bless you all... 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Happy New Year to my Brothers and Sisters...... 
Congratulations, This is YOUR year...OUR year... God will do something new in your life....
walk away form the heartaches, forget the familiar sicknesses and rise up on newness... Let God be your Guide and your light... 

Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For, behold darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people; but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and His glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising." Isa.60: 1-3.

This is YOUR year... God will show many why your his, and why they should keep their hands and mouth of YOU... The Blood of Jesus speaks better things than that of Abel

God bless you all

Having Patience during Your Trial (Waiting)

Hi Guys… it’s been a while but I’m so glad to be back on here, the topic of today is PATIENCE and I decided to write about this because I've also been struggling with this for the last couple of months. Oh how I LOVE patience... No not really, I have like 50% of patience which is not really good but I thank God almighty that I was able to experience the importance of patience as a Christian.
Sometimes as Christians we fall under this mentality of thinking, when we ask for something, we expect to see the sign the next day, I’m guilty of this and then when I don’t see it I begin to panic and throw all sorts of tantrum. Isaiah 40:31 says:
“But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” Waiting on God involves having patience and trust that he knows what his doing. Let’s be REAL right now, take a minute to think about this “Has God honestly Ever EVER let you down before???” when you think about it, from the moment you started praying for things has he ever let you down? I honestly cannot think of anyone who’s been sad for the whole year, but if there are I pray Lord of Host will heal their heart.
I knew without patience my mind would not be at rest, as this would lead to more frustration and probably say or do something I’d later on suffer for. God is not a wicked, he made us (This statement relaxes me so much) like proper relaxes me. When I’m frustrated I actually run to my bible or listen to uplifting song because if you don’t, the devil will see you’re slowly moving towards the direction he wants you.

Patience will actually get you everything I’m telling you now, I always try and put myself in others positions for example: Sarah in Genesis. (Genesis Chapters 15, 17, 18, 21). She did not trust God to give her a child so she went out of her way and made it happen. we should never try and do anything on our own. When we try and do things on our own we get ourselves into trouble. Instead we should depend on God for everything.
During our trials we need to believe that God trusts us with more struggles because he will later on bless us with more than we can handle… God is slow to anger, so our little tantrums that we like to throw when we don’t get the things we want will not get us anywhere. The lord is not a magician but a miracle worker. His ways are mysterious and definitely not our way. However God might give us something we want at times just to show us we do not NEED it.
Patience will teach you the type of Christian you are, it will also make you stronger. I have learnt this during my trial. Once I knew God was in control I was at peace with myself, I kept on going to God. One thing we need to know as Christians is that the devil does not take it easy when it comes to his lame attacks, so when we go to God, our prayers must be AGGRESSIVE. Don’t be SLUGGISH!!!(Galatians 6:9 - Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. )

when you feel like giving up; always remember how God has been patience with us, we leave whenever we feel like and also come back whenever we feel like whereas His never left, he was always there... I have faith in God through my patience. Everything works out for this Good and Glory.

PRAYER
God I know I cannot do anything without you, please grant me patience to know that you are always in control and help me to understand that without you I am nothing. Amen
Patience with God = FAITH
Shalom!!!

Fear Vs Faith

Hey guys.... i know it's been a while but PRAISE God with me because i've been down the pit but through his grace i was able to bounce back up..Moving on....swiftly...slowly... OK!!!


Having faith is optional and also ones personal choice. I'm saying this because i've been there, had i not been? i wouldn't have this testimony to share. you see God really doesnt put us through things we cannot handle. if we just ask, he can give us the strength to handle any situation.
Until i got myself together and trust me, it does take alot of time. we must have faith because God needs us to have faith.. My God!!! imagine that??? Dont you feel good? we always need something from God but this time, he needs and wants something in return from us. Thats a really great feeling.
My faith has brought me into pleasing my heavingly father in heaven, i bet you didnt know that not having faith in God was hurting him and also breaking his heart. Did you know that worrying is the lack of trsut in the CREATOR of the universe???

Sometimes we allow the enemy to convince us that our temporary condition are reflections of our eternal position in God but this is a LIE. jesus warned us in the book of John chapter 10 verse 10 about the thief that cometh to steal and take joy... Do not be a victim. instead be a Victor. like Job did, lets Decree a thing or two and it will be established for us (Job 22:28).

I know you might not want to hear this, and expect me to have some sort of secret to overcome your fear or to make it disappear but, as long as we keep growing in christ? fear never completely disappear. Anytime we grow, stretch and take the risk in fulfilling our God's Given potential, you and i are abound to run into fear BUT remmeber that the word of God in the book of (proverbs 28:1) and (Psalms 27:14).

Do not allow yourself to be trapped in your own words (proverbs 6:2) some words are librating and destructive. instead have words and sentences like "in God's strength i can amke it rather than 'what'll i do, my life is over'. Let the enemy know that your FAITH is much more bigger than your fear.

So now that we know all this... YOU!!! tell that small voice in your head right now "JESUS won!" so I win too because you are made in his image, he hasnt forgotten about you. He just wants you to know that wherever you want to go? He will go before you but the journey will be long, wobbly, stretchy.. you name it but the point is through his faith in his heavenly father in heaven he defeated the world so YOU! can too. (Hebrew 11)

Thank God for what you are going through right now because God is using you, his using your experience to mould you into the strong warrior that you are becoming in christ through your faith!! My God... give yourself a tap on the back.

The more we focus on our fears?, the more fear we experience. instead lets focus on God( Philippians 4:13). He can empower us to handle anuything we'll ever face.

Remember God's love is eternal and endureth forever..
Be Blessed

Grace A

Another poem.... ADD ON

I believe Satan exist because the bible says so and second, I’ve done business with him.

By allowing his thoughts to fly I’ve suffocated myself in his lies. I’ve done business with him by fornicating, dealing with other infirmities.

Drawing closer to the way he saw me rather than the way Christ made me.

I kept the business going because it was easier to do, lurking around I felt his personal closeness. For ignorance was a bliss to me, I carried on with my business with the devil. I was his Xbox and he had the controller but I thought I was in control.

What a spiritual deception, without eating the forbidden fruit I felt dead spiritually. I broke the rules, lost my ways and broke down mentally.

But now Jesus purified my soul and cleansed my conscience. His grace is sufficient enough for me, it always has been. So now I pack up my bag and choose Jesus Christ.

So now I pack my bag and pick up my sword

I know Satan doesn’t wanna let go because I was his favourite client

But with my sword I’m breaking the walls and his words.

Satan you lost the battle, Jesus paid the total cost for me, and so I will spend eternity wiping his feet with my tears.

I hereby delete your number so you can no longer call; change my address so you can no longer visit, I FORGET YOU so you can no longer ADD ON!!!

My chance (Poem)

Thought I could win the race in order for me to come first in the game but I went about it in circles.

Following the ungodly I gained fame in the wrong way

It was a miracle when the lord pulled me out of the wilderness and renewed my spirit.

He washed me with his blood, the same blood he shared on the cross of Calvary for my sins. I washed his feet with my tears and shouted “By your grace I am Free”

Slowly my fears of not being good enough disappeared, for God hath not given me the spirit of fear but of power and love!

I’m not good enough but Christ took a chance on me, he refreshed me and gave me a new cover.

Even when friends and loved one ran from me, my saviour was not ashamed of me.

Like timothy, the lord searched me, sought me out very diligently and found me.

Thank for my chance to start…. Aaaaa…gainnnn!!!

New Poem Called... Your Love..By yours Truly

Your Love

You see I was swimming back and forth in the world, forgot to apply his words to my life

I was moving up and down and living the dream not knowing my dreams were pushing me away from his DREAMS…

I thought my dreams were breaking God’s rules but No they were breaking my father’s heart.

Believing my sins couldn’t be washed away, refusing to believe his love was enough,

I carried my sins around but still carried on my working for Christ at church…Another spiritual infection

I struggled to believe that God loves me, but everywhere I turned he kept screaming, come to me and I will give YOU rest.

I am an imperfect person loved unconditionally by a perfect God.

What more can I ask for? So I ran and ran until I found the cross. I turned to the cross and his LOVE shouted and it’s still echoing

Praise God!!! 

Does everybody know you’re a Christian by your actions? Or does everybody think you’re a Christian while you’re acting??

Does everybody know you’re a Christian by your actions? Or does everybody think you’re a Christian while you’re acting??

I really had to write about this because this is one of those things, that I have experienced and it got me confused how men of God, in the church, outside of church can show that they were following Christ but when you get to know then, that’s not what it seems inside. They are ruthless, insecure and just covering up their ACTS in their garments. I don’t believe this is something to be proud of, and think because God will forgive us, we should continue to do it as long as we ask for forgiveness;  NO! That is NOT right. I would listen to some people preach about how God wants this and that from us, but they are doing the opposite when they are off the pulpit, who are you fooling? Because it’s definitely not God!!! Both young and old, we are fooling the people behind us and this is why some of us youth go astray because we have been told to do this, even though we know it’s not right, we think his a pastor and he told me to do it so he MUST be right. NO!! Nobody is holier than God or his words. After experiencing this, I knew it was time for me to get back into the words and continue to do what the word says rather than what any adult says. A LOT of us have been misled by our parents, pastors you name it. Can people tell the difference between what YOU BELIEVE AND HOW YOU ACT???

John 8:31-32 - So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” LISTEN AND FOLLOW the scriptures. I’m not saying Don’t listen to whatever your pastors or parents have to say to you but the minute you become confused, GO BACK TO THE WORDS!! Proverbs 3: 5- Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. There’s your confirmation, the bible didn’t tell us to lean on our parent’s words and understanding about the things we go through, we can talk to them of course but if we are still confused, PRAY, READ YOUR BIBLE, ask God to allow his will to be down in your life.

A lot of people nowadays act like Christians, I don’t know who we are trying to fool because it’s definitely not God, one way or another people will see US for who we truly are. To be honest we shouldn’t care about people seeing us, just ask yourself this question “IS God Proud of YOU?” Yeah you could be going to church daily, preaching to others but then your backbiting, talking behind people’s back, creating problems for other people just to make yourself feel superior, then your wonder why people look at you and wonder why they cannot RESPECT the fact that you’re a Christian anymore… CHECK YOURSELF

STOP ACTING LIKE A CHRISTIAN AND START BEING A CHRISTIAN THROUGH YOUR ACTIONS!! Nobody is better than anybody, Psalm 139:14.

 If we are truly followers of Christ, we should be encouraging one another and working in unity. Don’t be like Mr Luke Warm… That doesn’t work with God at all, because you are NOT making him proud, you’re throwing everything he is about in the bin and twisting everything around so ASK yourself once again

Does everybody know you’re a Christian by your actions? Or does everybody think you’re a Christian why you’re acting??

God IS ENOUGH

Why should we pray? (Act 27:17)
We as followers of Christ and children of God, should and must pray "so that we may obtain HELP in our time of need, what you are going through remember you have a HIGH priest in heaven who is hearing you, telling you to come to the throne of grace and ask for mercy so that you may get through the storm.
if you've noticed, a lot of things happen in our lives that we cannot explain but at the end of the tunnel, we are always thanking God. well let me explain why, God uses natural to explain the supernatural. you see it's all about knowing that God is enough for you, that's also where real fulfilment comes from. Real fulfilment is not what's in it for you, but what's in it for the father in heaven.

John 14: 26 - Ask the holy spirit, God wants us all to understand more than we want to because this will change our lives for the better.

Sometimes we get stuck in fear, Real fear totally shuts you down as a believer, as a follower of Christ. For you to realise that God is enough for you and i, we have to change the way we think before we can change our lives. you have to think of kindness, love, peace and positivity. you need to stop worrying WHY because if anything is going to be done? it's going to be done only by Christ and if he wants you to do anything? HE WILL TELL YOU....

God is enough and always remember He is completely in LOVE with you, more than you could ever imagine

Having Faith

Put your mind to rest, God is in control. The book of Matthew6:  2527 , overall this chapter is talking about not worrying, Keyword: "Don't worry" if your maker, someone who knows you inside and out and has never gone wrong everrr! If he tells you not to worry! You need to believe that!! God has already been to that place we are going, we need to relax our mind. It is very hard when you feel like nobody understand but a lot of things we are going through right now, a lot of people have been through this in the bible. Open your bible and see what they've done about it, pray to God and ask him what he wants you to do. I know for sure God wants us to Relax, because worrying won't change anything but take our precious time in which we'll never get back.  

Matthew 15:28 Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed instantly. 

At times, its the things we are afraid of the most that's normally our biggest fear (job 3:25) He said it himself, it was the thing he was afraid of the most that is now happening to him. Let's all keep in mind that, during our down time?  God is seriously testing our faith and how we would react when we lose the things he has given to us. When I think about it when God gives me something and then take it? Who am I to complain or nag at him? He owns me and whatever he has given to me. And he doesn't just take for no reason! He is The God of principles! There's every reason behind his actions! Sometimes we know why and sometimes we don't know. I guess that's where our faith truly comes in and we just have to believe that God is doing this For US. Whatever your going through out there, keep in mind that someone's been through it and they've survived that is why they are now giving testimonies and most importantly christ's been through it and he survived it not just because he is the only be-gotten son of christ but because he had FAITH! He knows what his father is doing. YOU CAN ALSO BE FAITHFUL and trust God! When Everyone turns against you, or abandon you! There's only one person that'll never leave your sight and that is a FACT! I've experienced it. God's love is more than HUGE! its more than enough.

 Sometimes I just really wanna hug him, just to express my love to him and to say thank you. But when we stay faithful to God, that's us showing him that we love him soooo much because we've put everything we have and do into his care and hands, and also because we have that faith that God will ALWAYS be there for us.

Believe God Loves you DEEPLY, Has a plan for your life and that his timing is always right, There is no need to ENVY Anyone... Just Have Faith

Heart to Heart

Hey guys.... Have you ever been through the whole phase of "why is all this happening to me?" well I do, I mean I am right now. I woke up about 20minutes ago and something just popped into my head saying "we have a Joseph situation" and I realised what that meant straight away. At some point he also wondered why all those things were happening to him but he never really gave up.
Whatever comes our way, will you continue to trust God?? Ruth is a great example in the bible, with everything that happened to her, she kept on going and going. (Ruth chapter 1 and 2). It is very hard to feel stable when everything around you feels like it's crumbling and with some of us, it's just one thing that is crumbling, then we say everything is going wrong or falling apart BUT there is one thing that will NEVER fall apart or crumble in our lives and that is God. The book of psalm 18:2 says to us "The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. 
Whatever your going through right now, is for your own good in a sense that you are growing more in Christ, Nobody said it would be easy but if you have Christ in your life he will always be there, no prayer goes unanswered, neither does God dismiss it but you have to be patient. Even if you don't know why everything is happening to you there's only one person that does and that is God. Things will go wrong in our lives but it always brings up a step closer to Christ, your best-friend betrays you, this will bring you closer to Christ because you learn not to trust everyone wholeheartedly but Christ. 

The book of Micah chapter 7 verse 7 says "Therefore I will look unto the lord, I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me". See?? all we have to do is WAIT! God never sleeps, because he is the air we breathe. God sees our struggle, he didn't create US to struggle, he made us for his own purpose which is to glorify his name, so remind yourself today that everything you go through? at the end of the day it is to glorify's God's name in heaven. It does get really really hard especially if you are a follower of Christ, Don't ever think God doesn't care about you, he does, His timing is not our timing but his always on time. keep busy by doing what you love, most importantly read your bible if you have one, if you don't get one. God is working you are not alone on this journey, reach out to God. Trust me on this one, if God wanted things different for you? he would have made it different so start trusting God's plan. Some of us wish God had his own (020 or 079) but here is something better, God is always around us, some people get the chance to see him, some get to feel his presence but always remember this, HE IS ALWAYS AROUND YOU!! ALWAYS!! so just imagine that, close your eyes and speak to him, you don't have to go on your knees or perform any sort of ritual, just sit down or even pretend your on the phone to him.

God is keeping you alive for a reason. DON'T let them bring you down, No matter the situation, let the holy spirit the comforter comfort you. I know it's very hard but God will not let you go, if you let God go, he will find you again, if you lose your way, he will find you AGAIN!! whatever you are going through God is there, you are made of life, DO NOT let them bring you down tell the enemy "Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise, when I sit in the darkness, the lord shall a light unto me"(Micah 7:8).

if you have any queries, even if you want to speak to me on the phone? I am here...  please Don't be a stranger, I am always here
I love you all
Be Blessed
