Forgive or not to forgive that's the question

Image
Forgiveness is God's Plan of action to bid you free of turmoil, regret, bitterness and lonliness. To forgive or just forget that is the question. I want to establish that forgetting is not forgiving that soul that once wronged you. Let's just get that straight. Just because you promised to never bring up the incidence that hurt your feelings, embarrassed you or had inflicted damage on your psyche don't mean all is well with you an that individual that harmed you. ** Healing needs to occur.. 1. You need to acknowledge your hurt and address it. 2. Next you need to make a conscious decision to accept what happened, move on from it and figure things out . 3. Ask God to help you through whatever caused you grief induced by someone. 4. Tell that person that you forgive them and try your best not to rehash the situation, Ever! Easier said then done...Time will tell... *When you forgive you grow, so let go and take you power back.  In Order to obt...

Inspired by My Roots, I am not my hair!!

Image
So I was recently inspired by my roots. From the kinky nappy roots of the hair on top of my head I had an epiphany.  I had to come to the place where I realize that I am much deeper then surface, face, body, Hair and human. I am not my hair!   http://bit.ly/2xpylAP   Upon this journey of self discovery I learned a lot about my self, my worth, my value and  how I see myself.  Who knew deciding to wear my hair naturally curly would invoke a deep change, knowledge and awareness. 1. I am Super Natural with an emphasis on Natural. Formed from the dust born onto this earth with the breath of God soaring through my being. 2. Secondly I am not a hallow shell encapsulated by skin, bones, muscle, veins, blood and the whole anatomy. I am a Spirit being shining bright. I found me beneath the sea of weave, texture and perms. This lady wasn't just learning about her hair, the thickness, how to nurture her roots for me it's self  discovery. I'm so in tune w...

Seeking the extreme pleasures, are you?

Image
Maybe it's time you-stop going to the extremes to please yourself with temporary pleasures. How about you go to the Ultimate P leaser,  'God', for lasting peace and pleasure? It never ceases to amaze me how far some will go for fulfillment to the point of becoming broke, addicted and sick because of not having any boundaries. Are you someone who insists on living on the edge no matter what the cost? There are those who will do anything for pleasure or gratification.  They will neglect those they seemingly love to indulge in the pleasurable things of life. Such as porn, entertainment, drugs/alcohol, sports, food, vanity and clothing. If this person is you ask yourself if gratifying yourself is worth it? Is the pleasure beneficial to you. We all like to enjoy pleasurable things from time to time.  Everything in this life is for our enjoyment but with a measure of balance to keep us safe and stable.  Proverbs 11:1-  A false balance is abominati...

Simple Gestures-Pricless

Image
Priceless Gestures that money can't buy!    I don't know about you, but I love to relish in the simple gestures that mean so little to some. Forget about any over the top or a elaborate gesture to prove that I'm loved or appreciated I don't need that.  Give me hugs, smiles, thank yous, letters, lunch dates, days off,  long scenic walks and family outings.   Each day gives you another chance to appreciate, congratulate and welcome new experiences .  Time for some action:  any   action,   courtesy,   communication,   etc.,   intended   for  effect   or   as   a   formality;   considered   expression; So are you receptive to your surroundings or are you just avoiding God's goodness which remains to be seen everyday? Gestures are any form of action which takes place at an appointed time. I like taking action to make things happen it's a witness of not onl...

Limit the excuses

Image
We can be our worst enemies in regards to the limits we place over ourselves. How many times have you decided you couldn't do something before you've even attempted the task? If you have answered this question honestly it's probably at least two or three times you can recall and that's just too many in my book.  Remember our only true limitations are those which exist past the efforts you've already exhausted, without yielded results. Have you tried to do everything within in your realm of possibilities and beyond to see a particular task to completion? If not try-try and try again. Often times we use any excuse to delay the inevitable. Such as, P aying bills, getting to work on time, calling someone back and moving forward. Complacency is a necessary evil that exist when you are trying to move to the next level. ( You can't let it drain you of your goals resist the temptation of throwing pity parties. ) Some things are destined to distrac...
