I sin too!

Really feeling some kind of way right now. I had to learn to be forgiving, humble, meek, & non-judging! Right-wrong, good-bad, gay-straight, sex-abstinence, honesty-lies! All of these things come down to choices! Everyone must remember that every decision you've made in your life hasn't been the right one & we've all been falsely accused of something! Either way what would've happened if the people closest to you (the ones that really knew you) didn't believe you or believe in you! I said initially I was feeling some kind of way- I believe I'm feeling genuine disappointment in this world once again. Just because I don't agree with you, doesn't give me the right to judge. I sin too! (& so do you) love y'all!

Friends.....how many of us have them?!

Often enough, the message you share with others; is the same message your own heart so desperately needs to hear. "Don't allow your loneliness to consume you, continue to be faithful, stay consistent".....all are phrases I utter without a second thought to friends when in need. It means the world when friends no when to say it back. Sometimes God will move someone out of your life, to make room for someone else. Other times He'll move them out to give the two of you time to grow & mature. I may not have dozens of friends, but I'll take quality over quanity any day!


A friend loveth at all times; And a brother is born for adversity- Proverbs 17:17

It's my turn!!

 People confuse sacrifice with "using".  If I make a sacrifice to do something, it's because at some point I seek to gain something in return. That's human nature.  If you expect for me to sacrifice my time, energy, or money please understand this is only a short-term thing.  I do things because I can see the "bigger" picture and because I know my steps are ordered.  My success was not given, it was earned!  I absolutely love it when people make the assumption "you got it made".  I use to get upset, argue and try to convince them of how "hard" it is.  I now take an different approach and simply tell them how "easy" God is.  Throughout my struggles, I have found continuous, renewed strength through positive energy that only gets stronger daily.  I will not be used and will speak my mind with all honestly when warranted.  "It's my turn" to reap the benefits of my sacrifices.  It is so important for women, especially young women to "know your worth, accept nothing less, and don't let anyone tell you that you are worth less (worthless)."  After making those countless sacrifices, don't forget to stand up and say "it's my turn!"  (You're worth it!! )
