Diamonds, Slay less and Pray more!

I pray that if there are any Diamonds out there suffering from depression, may the Lord once again fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy! (Job 8:21) Your pain is important to God! Be encouraged because through it all, God wants your light to shine before all men that others might come to know Him. So He truly cares about your pain and through His Son, you can overcome! Bless you!

Diamonds, today I was clear and certain about making a decision today regarding my well being and self care. Someonw tried to enfringe upon that but God worked everything out. I was tempted to "show out" or act out of my Christ-like character but again, God stepped in. When someone tried to go before me and report the situation from her point of view to my supervisor, God allowed me to hear the entire situation. In the midst of the conversation, through the words of my supervisor without either one of them knowing, God had not only confirmed the decision I was going to make was in the best interest if my well being and self care but gave me to answer to how He planned on working everything out. I just humbly acted as if I wasnt aware and I didnt act like I had a care because God had already ironed everything out. In fact, He worked things out un my favor. Let God fight your battles Diamonds. You dont have anything to prove but one thing is certain is that I didnt want to b

I now understand how much of an intricate and important role a father plays in the life of their children, especially his daughters. Unfortunately, I dod not have the experience of having the consistent presence of my biological dad in my life and in many ways it was a tragedy. His absence left me with a skewed way of viewing relationships with the opposite sex where often times, I drew to the conclusion that love was on the basis of sexual intercourse. I dont know how I ever believed the lie that all of my needs, emotional, psychological, physical, etc. would be met by having sex with a partner I cared about. There was still this broken and hollow part of me that desired to be filled from the absence of my dad. I used to wear tight fitted clothes, accentuated my breasts. Tried my best to draw attention to what I thought was the most important part of me, my body. Until I was introduced to my husband. He was the first man that truly respected me as the irreplaceable, masterful work o

Diamonds Stop running from the call on your life. Stop making excuses and building up rationales for why you shouldn't do x, y, and z. Acknowledge God in all your ways. Stop saying, "What I want to do." It's God's will and don't allow that potential and purpose to die on the inside of you. Allow it to fully mature and grow. Not just for the sake of others but may you be the recipient of God's grace and the manifestation of His work being completed through you. How much stronger will your testimony be when He sends you out to pour into others. And there is no joy outside of the will of God. No joy that can be experienced outside of living out your God-given purpose and potential. I pray God releases your full potential. I pray it fully develops and matures. That it becomes fully matured that you don't die and the dreams God deposited on the inside of you don't die but that God will not allow you to rest until you are fully operating in your specifi

The enemies we talk about I have been reminded are possible souls that need to be won to the Lord or saved but need correction and conviction. Holy Spirit have your way......we were once enemies of God until God extended His grace toward us and shined the light of your Gospel in our direction....may we never forget what we were, but even on our best day, our righteousness is as filthy rags! I was going to say ask Apostle Paul, but hey, look at what God has done with me, with you, the body of Christ who were once all enemies of God......

There are NO skeletons in the closet of your life that would prohibit or prevent God from offering the gift of salvation to you. He knows you from cover to cover and still desires to have a relationship with you..... ‪#‎ thatslove‬ ‪ #‎ thatsevangelism‬

May we never get so holy that we overlook the needs of others. As one of my professors from NYTS so eloquently stated, we ought to "treat the people's needs as holy." It is contradictory to call oneself a disciple of Christ and leave the needs of the unfortunate unmet. The first order of business is to let them know that God cares about their situation and then, of course, meet their immediate need!

Good morning Diamonds, I just want to encourage you this morning to make better choices with the time you have been given. Stop looking to the left and to the right. Often times we teeter totter on getting things done because the work seems overwhelming and we begin to take steps away from our assignments by looking for other things to do; social media, television, snacking, using the telephone, etc. when we should be focused on our task(s) at hand.  Nowadays, it doesn't take too much for us to be distracted but if you break down your desired task ( with completion in mind), the pressure will be less and you'll be one step closer to accomplishing your God-given goals. Be honest with yourself and what you struggle with. Create a list. Also, never be afraid or ashamed to ask anyone for help. The best teachers are those who are teachable. Even Jesus sought God the Father for direction through prayer.  Remember, you are not in this process alone even when it may seem as
