WHEN I AM DOWN






 At times I wake up and I feel so messed up and angry with life, with myself and how things are going. At times I feel like not living u know what mean...

Growing up is not easy, but I thank God I am born again. I have decided to follow him and lean not on my own understanding.

A very important gift from God is peace. Remember that the bible says that God gives us peace that surpasses all understanding. We often get caught up in crying over our problems that we tend to forget about Peace. We want to remember love, joy and all the good things that the Holy Spirit grants us.

I realized that most of us struggle too much without peace in our lives. 

What is Peace?

It is basically the calmness we have in God. The confidence that he is in control and your present state is not your end. Peace is not just a feeling, but it's a state of mind. You get good sleep when there is peace. You don't struggle in your mind and spirit over things when there is peace. When God's peace is active, you know that you are not in control.

When you are in control, there is no peace. When you get behind the steering wheel of your life and begin to drive based on what you feel, see, and know, you forfeit peace. You need to let Jesus take the wheel. Remember Carrie Underwood’s song…Jesus take the wheel.


God's peace only comes when he directs you. When you accept what he is doing in your life and you find contentment in that. When you step away from that and pursue your own direction or self-fulfillment, you get from under the umbrella of peace and start feeling worried, or uneasy. Things get unsure and uncertain.

THE SORBET FACE ELECTRIC BRUSH

Image
The  sorbet rechargeable cleanser  removes dirt from pores much more effectively and gently than that of normal cleansing. The fine exfoliating bristles ensure deeper cleansing and gently remove dead skin cells, revealing brighter, more youthful looking skin. This ensures that subsequent face creams or serums are also absorbed better into the skin. The cleanser is fully water-resistant which makes it safe to use and store in the bathroom.  It comes with 3 different heads (a daily cleansing brush, the exfoliating brush (with fine tapered bristles) and a silicone brush head for extra delicate skin).  I have found that I tend to use the daily cleansing brush every evening after doing a pre-cleanse to remove the bulk of my makeup and then I use the silicone brush head in the morning.  I use the exfoliating once a week. I love that the cleanser comes with a USB charger which makes it easy enough to charge – no need to worry about batteries.  A s...

YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Problems sharpens us. Problems brings us closer to God. The more a pencil is sharpened, the more it works wonders. Don’t worry when life turns differently, stand more, fast more, pray more, read the bible more and love others more. Though pain may come in the evening, joy comes in the morning. Remain positioned in the Lord, even if seems like he failed to save you. Let him be his your Lord and personal savior. Don’t compare yourself with your neighbor. Let your care be your care and theirs be. No matter what you are going through just know that God will never leave you nor forsake you. Your life is in the hands of the potter. His thoughts, plans and ideas are not like ours. U can’t be better than God. Know your fate. Don’t live your life empty spirited. Open your heart and let Jesus come into your life. I encourage you to turn to God. May your worship not be dictated by your situation.  He is God in and out of every situation.You are not alone. You can overcome that depressio...

ARE CROP TOPS MODEST?

Image
First and foremost, I have worn a crop top before. I own one. I wanted it so badly and wallah, I bought it and wore it (See below). Although I wore it on one Saturday afternoon, I kinda felt bad. For those of you who walk with God, you will understand me right away. 1 Timothy 2: 9 which reads;" I also want women to dress modestly with decency and properly, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes convicted me. Proverbs 7: 10  Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent.   I got convicted people.    I think God convicts people differently and at different times. We are convicted by the holy spirit about what is right and what is wrong. We must learn to listen to the voice of truth and obey it. Obedience is better than sacrifice.  I no longer feel comfortable wearing a crop top especially without a thin coat on top. I fail to see the point in  putting ...
