Just Random Thoughts
Good Morning beauties and beaus!! I have been up for quite a while now and I have been trying to figure out what it is that I want to do for the rest of my life......sounds fun doesn't it! Yeah right. I have been doing this since I was about 18 years old now I'm 24 YEARS OLD and now it's getting to the point to where I'm like Lord Jesus help me because you know I'm an undecided mess. I am going to fast for a month and really pray and concentrate on God and getting an answer from Him or better clarity on what I am to do with my life. I kind of have an idea of what I want to do, but it's not certain. If I could have my way I would be a blogger, killer makeup artist, TV personality and a motivational speaker. These are the things that i find joy in doing, so why can't i pick one and zone in on it? I have a million ideas running through my head at 100 mph and it's hard for me to just say, okay I am going to pick this and work on being the best I can be at it. I wonder if God ever look down from Heaven at me and laugh because I am a compulsive indecisive mess of a person. Lol, I will say that I've gotten better at it though just not where I think I should be in my life though I suppose. Well I guess I could go running today before school, because I'm trying to lose some weight and get toned for a healthier me and a better looking me. I'm not insecure about myself, but I am a lot more health conscience because I want to have a long, healthy and vibrant life. I was doing good for a while because I would work out everyday and I stopped eating pork FOR HEALTH PURPOSES and I was going pretty strong at it until..........my boyfriend came to visit me and he stayed for a week and I only worked out for a day when he was here and it wasn't like an all in workout then.So I just have back into the swing of things, but I guess I'm done with this guys and I will write to you later. Have an amazeballs day! I love you all and Peace!!

Be conscious of sin Part II
How can I relate? Easy, simply because I am human. We ALL have done things that we know God would not be pleased with, but yet and still we do them anyway. And think that if we just ask for forgiveness then its okay to continue to do whatever it is we're doing. Now I'm not saying that he doesn't forgive because as we all know our God is an awesome forgiving God, but i feel like when we ask for His forgiveness then we should strive to not to do that again, because we want to make our Father happy. Yes, we are going to back slide sometime, but to be truly devoted to Him we have to sacrifice the things that is keeping us from that. We should strive to be like Christ IN ALL WAYS. Just think about the things we do that we KNOW God wouldn't approve of and see if we can do without. Because when He sent His Son down to die for us he didn't hesitate and for that we could never repay Him for that unconditional, perfect love tha led Him to do that. But while here on earth we should try to give Him everything that we can. I'm nobody special and I don't have any room to judge, bash or preach to anyone because I'm a sinner trying to find my way, but I love the Lord and I want Him to be proud of me. He put me on this earth for a reason and I'm going to serve my purpose with Him as head of my life. Sorry it took so long to post guys been super busy with school and all, but I'm going to make a HUGE effort to keep this going because i really feel like i'm gorwing from this and i will be able to accomplish the mission i set out to do. Part of being obedient, next topic after part 3 of this topic!! I love you, but God loves you more! Be Blessed! XOXO

Be conscious of Sin
Proverbs 28:13
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper; but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy!
What does this mean? How can I relate to this? Why is it so hard to be a "true christian"? These are some of the questions i use to ask myself when i was coming up in the church. I didn't really understand what the pastor was talking about so i would tune him out and go into my own little world. Bad? Yeah i know, but no one is perfect and that's why i wanted to start this blog because i feel like people are still in that mind set i was in when i was a little girl. Sure, i mean yeah i have done things in my life that wasn't pleasing to God but if i didn't do the things i did i wouldn't know him the way i do today and i wouldn't be able to finally know the answer to these questions. I have so much to say about this so I am going to split this up into three discussions.
What does this mean? This goes out to a lot of people that try to do exactly that, our generation especially, because we do so much and think that if we don't tell anybody and try to hide it from God then it's almost as if it never happened. And that's not how it should be, we are the generation and we have to lead by example for the next generation. It is really easy to follow a fad to try and fit in with the "in crowd" and you never feel like you really belong and its because YOU DON'T!!! Find yourself in the Lord and you'll find your place on Earth. Who said that you have to dress a certain way to get a guy's attention. Or you have to drink this or smoke this or whatever the "cool" thing is at that time to be considered as a "cool person." SOCIETY DID! Me personally, never followed a trend i thought wasn't for me. I've always been an "underdog" my cousin likes to call it, but i like that term because it's exactly what i am. I'm cool because I say I am! I march to the beat of my own drum so to speak, and that makes me stand out in a crowd. Unique. Individual. Sure I've done things and thought, well if nobody knows about it then I'm good. you can't hide your flaws from the one person that wants your heart. He already knows what you're thinking before u think it. so why would we want to let down the person that Loves us more than our own parents!! That's a lot of love from someone we've never even seen. Sometimes i sit and think about why we do the things we do, and the only logical answer i can get is because we're human. We are flesh and blood and the flesh can be a VERY powerful thing if we let it. And we're not always gonna do everything right, but if we strive to walk that path with Christ and know that we are important, we are someone special without the worldly influence down our backs. Then i think we'll have a better insight on what is actually more important than being cool so we wouldn't have to hide our "bad" ways. Stay posted for part 2 guys! I love u, but He loves u more and that's what matters! be blessed.
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper; but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy!

Faith Without Works is Dead!!!!!
What do you do when you are Saved? I've had so many discussions about this with some of my friends, and I ask them why they do some of the things they do. I'm not trying to preach to anyone because we're all sinners and have room for improvement. I have done things that weren't pleasing to God, but when I did something wrong, the people who I thought were there for me would look at me in shame, and the first thing that would come out of their mouths was, "I THOUGHT YOU WERE SAVED". I would feel so convicted, and I would just cry to myself because I felt like I couldn't do anything without being judged, but I had to realize that REAL friends pick you up rather than put you down. After I gained a closer connection with God, I felt as if I could talk to Him on a more intimate level, and suddenly, the opinions of others no longer bothered me. Now I know that I have an advocate who I could go to and that's Jesus Christ. Moving back to the topic, many of my friends feel that because they've accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior, they can continue doing all the things they were doing before and still go to Heaven. It is, indeed, true that we are saved once we accept Christ, but when we make that choice to become a part of the Lord's Army, we have to go all the way and prepare ourselves for the battle that's yet to come. We must endure vigorous training, exercise regularly to get fit, and study the Word so that we may know what God requires of us. When we say we want to be saved, there is power in that statement because when we say it and really mean it we are a new creation in Christ. To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing! It's impossible to live and not breathe, which is the same concept with being a Christian. Once we have spoken the words and are REAL about it then we must show it by doing the Will of God. If we have to shy away from old friends to get where we need to be then let's do just that. Remember; don't let anyone stand in your way of getting your blessings because in the end, YOU will be held accountable for your own actions! Live your life accordingly people and see how God shows his favor upon your life!! Be blessed!!!
