A suitable mate!




Butterflies in your stomach, fireworks, head spinning, sparks in your eyes, heart beating a 1000 miles per hour! You know what those are...your feelings! We think that's love, why? I know, because watch a lot of TV, and listen to a lot of love songs and it's got us all confused!

I've been gone for 5 days! Joined a group which focused on praying for your future spouse! Some of you may have been in the group and it was very uplifting and motivation!  For those who missed it, one of the topics was 'finding someone suitable' for you! Not someone who just makes you googly-eyed, because your feelings can and are bound to change!

When dating, we should really focus on getting to know a person, making sure they are suitable for us, and our lifestyle, and or future lifestyle! I remember getting so irritated with this guy, because he literally made me feel like I was on an interview! Honestly he was just trying to get to know me, but I had already made it up in my mind, that it was a NO GO for me! before even given him a chance, because I didn't find him physically attractive, but I never opened my mind to his heart!

Honestly whomever I decide to allow romantically in my life I want to be attracted to, and thats ok, but we must be careful with that and remember the goal! The goal is a suitable mate! So, the path that I choice excludes a worldly lifestyle, so in order to be equally yoked as the bible tells us my suitable mate has to be on the same path or headed towards the same path as me! In other words your suitable mate wouldn't pull you from Christ, but instead draw you near!

Believe in YOU!

Anything you put your mind to you can do! Cast out fear and doubt and just go for it. What is stopping you? Most times its doubt! Get rid of doubt! Believe in yourself! If you have the thought you have the ability! We are designed so incredibly; we can do more than we actually think! That's our problem sometimes we "think" ourselves right out of our greatness! Transform your mind! That takes time so be patient with yourself! Start believing in you TODAY!

Life is a Journey!

Good morning!.. there comes a point in our lives when we look at ourselves and decide to make some improvements! I want to reassure you: "Working on yourself is not selfish"!..and their is no specific time or time frame when God has put it in your heart, mind and soul that it is time for a change! Time to be made over!! Anyone who isn't on board with this, well maybe their time in your life has expired! When God is PUSHING you forward don't allow the enemy to pull you back! Maybe you've realize that you haven't been loving yourself properly, maybe you've been given all your time, attention and efforts towards someone else, and have neglected yourself! Or maybe you are just ready for a change! Whatever your reason is GO FOR IT, not tomorrow but today! I pray whatever God has placed on your heart that you pursue it, and also that he places you at the right place at the right time with the right people! .....you guys!!! We've made it through wee

Society WHO?

Society WHO? “You are the one who justify yourselves in the eyes of others, but God knows your hearts. What people value highly is detestable in God’s sight.” –Luke 16:15 NIV What society sees and calls monumental, God sees through as calls monstrous. –Luke 16:15 MSG We tend to care too much on how others view us, what’s popular, what other people are doing, the latest trends, and these so called social media “GOALS” ! Worldly gratifications verses Gods satisfaction in us. We don’t care about pleasing God, we care about pleasing ourselves. We care about fitting in, and looking/acting the part. What the “world” says is it or as some of you say is LIT! Sex, Drugs, Lies, Cursing, Cheats, Thieves, Adultery…etc. Why not, everyone is doing it! It’s thrilling, it feels good, and because I want to. We can say whatever we want, but God knows our hearts! God doesn’t necessarily tell us not to do these things, because he wants to take away self-pleasure from us; he tells us t
