How do I feel about myself

This is the most important question you can ask yourself. The way you feel about yourself is how people view you. What you put out in the atmosphere is what you receive back. Now God does allow certain things to happen in your life that you have may not understand at that time and of course there is an enemy but I don't give him credit. All my praise goes to God, he is the one who created me. So I feel like that's why it is important to feel good, respect, love, and be happy about who you are because Jesus came so that we may have Life and Life more abundantly (John 10:10). When you ask yourself this question another important thing is to be honest with yourself. The things you don't like about yourself give to the one and only (God) who can help you make the changes you need to be the person you will love and cherish. Also you will become the person God created you to be in the first place. Not the person you created over the years due to pain, hurt, tragic, moments of happiness, and false love. I say false because if you don't have God in your life you don't know what real Love is. It's time to peel those layers off and see who you really are. Once that happens believe me, you will be so proud of yourself.

"Sadness"

Well I and a lot of people can relate to the word Sadness , most of us try to ignore this feeling because we only see the negative in Sadness. We have been taught to ignore a lot our feelings and just keep them to ourselves, because in order to survive in this life you can't show so many feelings. This goes for women and men but if they weren't necessary God wouldn't have given us the ability to feel, whether Happy or Sad. The most outrageous thing and so contradicting is that we teach our men that they aren't real men if they cry or feel any kind of emotion but yet we want them to feel something when it comes to us women. You don't have to agree but it's the truth and that's because we as a human race are very selfish, only want to deal with our feelings and nobody else's unless its on our time. We have to learn and remember that these feelings are our gifts from God and we need every Sad, Mad, Bad, and Angry moment in our lives. Feeling Sad can sometimes motivate you to do better or  to help make a certain change in your life that needs to take place, also to help you become an Awesome woman or man. People we have to stop looking at everything in a negative perspective and see the positive in every situation, easier said than done but its possible with God's help. With every tear that is shed God takes them and after you cry you feel relieved to continue in this journey called life and then comes a smile with comfort of Happiness. Now with that said when the time comes and you feel everything but happy, don't stay there take or receive what you need to from the situation and move forward in your life. So feel free to feel Sadness or any other emotion that you want when you want because nobody is You, and no we don't or shouldn't want to see people Sad or hurting, but sometimes we should just be a hug, a shoulder, and listener for that person in their time of need. No one can tell you how or what to feel at that moment because you were created for something special and God has allowed you at that time to feel whatever it is you feel, for your Purpose and He needs you to feel and have a heart.... Until next time!!!

"LOVE"

Real Love is a topic that really didn't want to address. On the hand it's one that needs to be addressed, because people have misconstrued what "Love" really means or should I say what Love really is. People say love hurt, love don't love me, and my favorite love doesn't live here anymore. Love doesn't hurt us, we hurt each other by abusing and misusing the word Love. Quotes of Love hurting begins to make Love look and sound evil, mean, bitter, painful, and filled with hatred. Love by definition isn't any of those things, just because you took the word Love and the feeling it gives you and played with it like a ball, and said it to every man or woman you thought actually knew the definition of Love, doesn't make it real Love. When that happens then those quotes begin to flow through you mind and you begin to believe the wrong definition of Love. Then there are words like deep affection, fondness, tenderness, warmth, intimacy, compassion, concern, and care. Those words are beautiful and those words are the definition of Love from the human perspectives.The real definition is God, than we have words like unconditional, peace, joy, patients, kindness,faithfulness, comfort, and freedom comes from Real Love. I suggest that you get to know God because he is Love and if He's Love and we can't fathom what or who God really is. He only gives us pieces of who He is and what He can do, so with that being said we as a human race don't know how far the definition of Love really goes. Love is so much more than just a word. Until next time....

Expectations

When it comes to Expectations you've got to have a balance especially when it comes to people. Having Expectations on the job, at school, your home, and God that's different. Allow me to explain, we as a human race Expect to much out of each other and we also can be critical and judge mental. For instance some of us say the reason they don't go to church is because the Pastor isn't practicing what he's preaching and the members aren't being the Christians they claim to be. That brings me back to the point I am trying to make we need a balance when comes Expectations because the Pastor isn't GOD and the members aren't perfect as well. With that said Acceptance is the key, if you Accept people for who they are then you wouldn't have high Expectations for them! Until next time...

Who Are You???

Who are you ? I have your answer. You are beautiful and unique , You're smart and wise , You're the person nobody else can be, and last but not least You're who God created You to be. Don't allow anyone to label you, place an image on you that your trying to up hold. Don't allow insecurities and low self esteem to put you in bondage. You're a Beautiful person that people need to see and they need You too! Set yourself free from everything people , family, friends, and society have said YOU ARE!!! The Bible says that we are made in the image of God, which means we are Awesome, Amazing, Loving, and Gorgeous.

     " I praise you, for you are fearfully and wonderfully made ."
                                            Psalm 139: 14

Who's taking Care of your House(You)???

Such a good question that truly deserves an answer. What I mean by House is your spirit and your body. The main focus is your Spirit because what you allow to happen on the inside of you reflects on the outside. See on the inside is where insecurities try to hid and the more they try to hid, the easier their seen. For instances imagine your a beautiful House, the inside is gorgeous and you have two levels. Now lets take a look the inside of the house. There are five bedrooms, two bathrooms, an attic and a basement. People have moved in and out of the House (relationships with men or women), kids have drawn on the walls in the bedrooms (labels or images people use to describe you), the attic is filled with things from peoples past that they're holding on too (memories good or bad) and last but not least the basement has things people have, that hasn't been seen by others but are yet to be exposed ( secrets, insecurities, heartbreak, abuse and pain). Now the House begins to fall apart on the inside (your Spirit) and outside (your Body), because the House (you) wasn't created for mistreatment and the person that built the house (God) had idea of the right family that needed to live there (The Holy Spirit and Jesus). So if your not taking care of You than who is or will? Also if not opening the door for the right person who can help get rid of things in your life that wasn't meant for you in the first place, then Who's taking care of You???

The Pictures of Life

I know the title is a little weird but The Pictures of Life means how we view every thing in life. For example, when you see your future no matter the age you Picture it in your mind how you think it will be. Picturing things in your mind is another form of your memory or imagination. We as humans take mind photos and sometimes the photos are bad memories and some are good but they're our personal pictures. That's why we ask the question where do see or picture your self in life. You should ask your self what pictures have I taken in the years of my existence? The key to this question is that it's just a Picture either in your past and if so gives those past photos (memories) to God. If your photos is what you want and you plan for your future, make sure your walking in the will of God and the void you trying to fill with beautiful photos (memories) of your future will be filled. Also remember the Picture of who you are can always be edited, cropped, and Photoshop if you allow God to help you become who you really want to be. That person you feel in your heart that you would love to set free she or he is not what everyone wants you to be. That's The Big Picture well until next time....
