My own mind!

"Misery loves company by now you should know people always have advice about being together when their all alone" - Dru Hill

For anybody that really knows me, this is one of my absolute favorite lyrics from a song. I quote it alllllll the time. Its so very true. A lot of times we ask people for advice when they're not in a suitable situation to give advice. How can a single individual give me advice about making my relationship work when they aint got no man. AND yes i said aint got no. but seriously thats really crazy. a lot of times i thing back on the advice i have taken from people. many times it wasnt good advice. it was just something i wanted to hear. it was like my so called friends were just spoon feeding my ego and intellect. nobody wanted to say baby girl you wrong or thats not the right mindset to have you have to look at it another way.

Now when i look to people for advice i pray before hand. I pray that my heart and mind are open to accept that which is right no matter what is being said. i have to be able to humble myself enough to know that i will be wrong more often that right. but with the Lord on my side i will always have wisdom to gain from my experiences. i have truly learned that its okay to be wrong when im wrong and right when im right. it doesnt take away from the beautiful mind i was blessed with and the great things that are coming to me.

Next Stop: Liberty

So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. - John 8:36 "It is the hurt that breaks me it’s the pain that pulls me to my knees and the tears they’ve changed me til what I couldn’t see Becomes so clear to me This is the way The way that you love me" - Anthony Evans Where do I begin? Its been a long 2 months. I went through every emotion there is. I cried more than I slept and prayed more than I breathed. I was isolated from every single comfort zone I faithfully rested my head upon. All I had was a mouth to pray and hands to praise. It was just me and God. And though I know He would never leave nor forsake me I had never felt so alone. I felt abandoned and cut off. The dreams I had grown so accustomed to were no where to be found. The very gift through which all my answered prayer came was out of service. I felt like my prayer was in vain. I started to focus my mind on other things. I begin to rely on people back home to tell me what God was saying. I patiently...

Thoughts on Forgiving

Most people think they learn forgiveness as a child. Which in part is true. Children generally forgive without thought. You don't have to ask for it or beg for it. They just give it. But something happens when we grow up. Its like we make a conscience effort to eat the apple which brings forth our own ideas on how to forgive. We have to engage our five senses in a way that no man can satisfy. We have to hear and feel the apology. The person desiring forgiveness has to articulate their vocabulary like your favorite song on a hot summer's eve in July. Saying words like I'm sorry because... and I apologize for..... We put our hands together to skip prayer and formulate schemes on how we can make somebody work for our forgiveness as if we are some supernatural higher being who has never needed forgiveness. The victim and the perpetrator always switch places assuming the other should have been the bigger person. We have the expectation for a divine quality to manifes...

He Gave

And he gave me hands. Hands to write the vision and make it plain. Hands to wipe every tear as He counted the blessings they would bring. He gave me feet. Feet to walk in the path he set before me. To run this race and endure all that comes my way. To jump over and walk through the valley of the shadow of death. He gave me a mouth. To shout the praises of a living king. To worship the glory of the holy lamb. To move the mountains to new places. To conquer the spirit of silence. He gave me life. Became who I am so I could be who he is. Laid down so I could stand firm. Cried out so I could dream big. Stepped down so I could be set free. Broke chains so I could serve him. Passed down the letter and canceled it through grace. He gave me love. Love to overcome breakthrough. To nurture bring life and survive. To rebuke loneliness inspire and grow. My King My Saviour My Redeemer who is patient and kind. Keeps no records of my wrongs wont delight in my evil ways protects trusts and...
