If you smoked cigarettes everyday, why are you blaming God for having cancer?  If you live an unhealthy lifestyle, why are you blaming God for having poor health?  If you had unprotected sex, why are you blaming God for the consequences?  If you failed the drug test at your job, why are you blaming God for being unemployed?  If you cheated on your spouse, why are you blaming God for the divorce?  If you blew all your

Dear__________, Should I stay or should I go? The words that battle within my mind. Trying to decide if this is time well spent…or if this relationship is just a waste of time. Should I stay or should I go? So confident, but yet, so confused. I want to do the right thing…but the question is, what’s the right thing to do? See, I got the right reasons to leave…they just feel so wrong. Maybe it’s the fear of

You can bind me, but I’m not broken. You can block my path, but not my vision. You can shackle my feet, but I can still crawl. You can close my eyes, but I can still see visions of what I smell. You can silence my ears, but I can still feel the vibrations of sound. You can take away my hands, but I can still hold on with my limbs. No matter what you do, you will never kill the spirit of man’s willingness

While most will make this day about me, I will make my birthday about God. He is the reason why I’m here another year and God doesn’t need me to throw a party or “pop bottles” to thank Him because in all actuality that would be me just thanking myself…AND I DESERVE NO PRAISE. So, today, instead of putting together the biggest party, I decided to thank God for everything in my life. I am thanki

“Respect yourself because if you don’t, others WON’T do it for you” The more you underestimate your worth, the more others will ignore your value. The less you respect yourself, the less others will respect you. I always see women saying that there are NO good men but you FIRST have to ask yourself, “Am I a good woman?” In this life, you will attract the lifestyle that you live. You can’

It is out of natural instinct that when we are provoked, become angry and engage in an argument, we instantly become defensive and potentially use hurtful words with the intent of provoking the other person; resulting in what I consider to be a Hazardous Material filled argument. Hazardous material is known to be harmful, toxic and not good for anyone that is exposed to it. To prevent being exposed to hazardous mater

What if David had settled and not fought Goliath? What if Jesus would have settled and become Prince to Satan? What if Paul would have settled and not spoke the gospel in Rome? What if Christopher Colombus would have settled and not tested his theory that the Earth was not flat? What if the forefathers of our country would have settled and stayed subject to England? What if Abraham Lincoln would have settled and beli

Athletes go through training camp, soldiers go through boot camp, and even those on the job force go through some type of training. The purpose behind these training methods is to better insure that you will be ready once the “bullets” start flying and you’re under “live action.” The preparation is always more rigorous than the actual task. Why? To program your mind to think “I’ve

See my heart, not my past. So many times, people judge us by what we have done in the past. God doesn’t. He looks beyond our faults to see the potential. He didn’t look at Noah and see a drunkard, He saw an Ark builder. He didn’t look at Moses and see a murderer, He saw a leader. In David, he didn’t see an adulterer, He saw his big valiant heart. When He looked at Elijah, he didn’t see a

“If you want a better world, CREATE a better you.” We are responsible for what happens in the future. We are the teachers that are teaching the students of this generation. We make the beds that they lay in and we leave the footprints that they will follow. If we don’t create a better self, there is no way we can provide a better future. We have to start upholding our responsibilities in raising the seeds
