Pray until times get better....

Often times, alot of our frustrations, hurts, and those things that upset us that we post on Facebook, IG, Twitter would be more effectively handled if we took it to the Lord in prayer.

Jesus was most certainly hurt. Surely the Apostle Paul and the Disciples but how more appropriate it is to take our cares, our concerns to the Lord in prayer.

Perhaphs some of us wouldn't talk so quick out lf our necks or our mouths because we know God attends his ear to our voices when we cry out to him.

We have to stop sending out the wrong message to the world that is constantly watching us, looking for something different than what they see on reality TV (which is scripted as well).

Yet we have a script, we have The Book, The Bible when we open it to read to guard our mouths or atleast give us what to say when we dont know what to say.

We can keep it real. God most certainly kept it real but on those moments when we want to blurt out obscenities and black out on a sistah or brother, BE ANGRY BUT SIN NOT!

Speak peaceably I believe the word of God exhorts us to do with one another. By all means, when all else fails, pray. When you feel broken and you understand why things are happening a certain way, pray. Dont start talking out of your neck but out of revence for God and our mission to lead others to Christ, let us be ever so careful how we do and say certain things in Jesus's name!

Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season. The lenten season is observed to better appreciate the death, and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. In addition, Ash Wednesday has another significant meaning for me. It was on this day, Ash Wednesday that the Lord brought me out of my induced coma in 2000, March 8th to be exact. Prior to that, I could only recall seeing my brother the night of the fire  in January who accompanied me in the ambulance while being transported to what was then called UMDNJ in Newark, NJ. On that Ash Wednesday, I can remember seeing both my grandmother and my mommy sitting in my hospital room. Grandma holding a can of Pepsi, and mommy doing something with my feet, lol. Probably clipping my toe nails. There is also that taste of chicken broth or soup I will never forget fed to me intravenously along with other fluids to sustain me while I was in a coma. Its been 16 years fr...

Know why...

Diamonds, Always question why you are so quick to do for others. I personally used to deal with rejection issues and often extended myself out of fear of saying no because I had a warped view of relationships. I would agree to make myself available even when I couldn't because I was afraid to disappoint the other person I was seeking affection from and was fearful of running the risk of losing them. I heard a preacher say, "If you cant say no, then you are in bondage." You are in bondage because youre always at the object of your affections beckoning call or enslaved to them even if they are not being manipulative or abusive. Youre fear of losing them or being rejected will keep you in bondage and never experiencing the liberty and the right to say no. Saying no especially when you cant is not bad at all. Saying no never puts you in a bind when you really dont want to do for a person but decide to do so because it looks good ln the outside but inwardly you dont really...
