Someone very close to me is about to tie the knot
and yet, am trying so hard to not think about you.
I don’t want you to steal her spotlight.
It is her time.
Our time is coming soon,
I want it to tarry a little tho.
Cos I have some growing up
to do.
Am still a baby Christian
tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine.
It is not a good thing to say.
However, it is the truth.
I praise God for allowing this time
for me to grow up spiritually,
you don’t want a girl to sap every anointing out
of you?
No, I don’t want to do that to you, Babe!
We are God’s gift to each other,
that’s why I want to be complete in Christ,
before we meet each other.
I don’t want to be a problem,
I don’t want to hurt you.
I’ll be your first supporter
after God.
I want to do you good all
the days of my life.
I can’t do that if am a baby in
my relationship with God.
Am growing in love with Christ,
Cos that’s the glue that will hold
us together.
“Some are seeking a relationship, instead of seeking the Lord. Loneliness is pushing them to seek in places where they are only going to find the wrong person, and ultimately get hurt. Remember, you are the temple of the living God, and there are places where your feet should not take you, and relationships that should never start.” (pjimgallagher.wordpress.com)
Be Encouraged single Ladies,
They’re still Men out there that Love the Lord.
However, let your heart be so wrapped up
in God that your husband has to chase
God to find you.
You want a man of God?
Chase God with your whole heart,
Pray for your spouse
and wait patiently.
Don’t be desperate while waiting,
Wait and TRUST God.
Hebrew 12:2-looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.
His heart craves for love so bad
but his actions yields selfishness..
A selfish heart is not capable of Love.
Love is antagonist to Selfishness.
Am concerned that his selfish heart
will only lead him to the very thing he fears
HURT.
This 4-letter word guides his steps.
He is every Christian woman’s nightmare,
His words is sweet and very convincing..
However, the detects of his heart
is far from the truth.
He wears a mask to portray the original.
He will tell you what you want to hear,
and probably the same thing he is telling
other girls.
How to recognize the counterfeit:
1. He doesn’t have an intimate relationship with God: Being with him wouldn’t strengthen your relationship with God.
2. He hurt you in the past: Love shouldn’t hurt. Hurt is inspired by selfishness. Selfishness is inspired by fear. In the presence of Fear, Love can’t Strive. I John 4:18-Perfect Love cast out all fears.
3. He constantly compares you to another. 2 Cor. 10:12- to one to another is not wise.
4. He lies to you..
if you’re honest with him. It’s a clear sign of immaturity and lack of responsibility.
This is so
disrespectful (you deserve better).
A guy that will lie to you will play you.
Players lie.
Make sure, you have
substantial evidence (don’t assume)
5. He left you to talk to another..
Guys that do this are subconsciously telling you,
you don’t have all the qualities I want. When a man finds his rib, he will
stop searching. Except, he purposely wants to play every female.
6. He flirts with other girls in front of your face: This act is very immature and a clear sign that probably the reason he is with you might also be very superficial. The man for you will not disrespect you. If he does this.. It’s a clear sign he has his eyes
for other girls.
Best way to handle moving on from a counterfeit:
1. Pray for them-(ex..salvation, future) pray for good things for them.
It might hurt cos they hurt you but trust me,
it is the best way to handle evil. Overcome evil with good.
2. Cut them completely off.. No msg, txting, fb..
You can’t move on when you’re constantly in contact.
3. Meditate on Christ’s love for you.
4. Busy yourself by helping others.
5. Every time you think about him or her,
speak out LOud: God loves me or
I am complete in Christ.
6. Remember, this person had to get out of
your life, so that you can refocus your attention
on God.
7. Pray for your future spouse, but don’t idolize the idea of meeting your future spouse that you forget about your relationship with God.
8. Read a book about Waiting till God’s time.
9. Trust God’s plan for your life- Jeremiah 29:11
10. Forgive the counterfeit..
11. Don’t rehearse the old conversations.
Remember, the joy you will feel with your Spouse
will override the pain you feel now.
It is our duty to be on the look out for the counterfeits..
Trust me, the original is so WORTH the WAIT.
God gave us this free gift call “choice” in all aspects of our lives except in choosing our race, gender, and family. None of it seems fair especially if you’re a poor black person in America. Of course, you wish you were born to President Obama or born to some rich Hollywood movie star or something. It’s not fair, why do some people have it made like Prince Harry and William?
Why didn’t God allow us to pick our race, gender, and family? I don’t have that answer.. Nobody does.
He allowed you to have the race, gender, and family for his purpose and glory. He placed you in the right family, and gave you the right race and gender. Despite the fact, it is not exactly the kind you wanted. God chose this part of our lives because he knows everything. He knows the right family, race, gender that will best prepare you for his purpose for your life.
If you hate your race, gender and family; you’re technically saying that God’s choice for you was not the best. For those that truly know God, you know that God chooses the best for us. If you were given the choice to chose for yourself, I seriously doubt that your choice would have been better. No man’s wisdom can ever measure up to God’s. Our wisdom minutely shows us a glimpse of God’s wisdom. God is always right and his choice is always the best; even though, we don’t understand.
Complaining only undermines God’s decision to make you this way. Complaining wouldn’t change anything. Instead, thank God that he made you the way you’re cos he knew that he needed you to be this way to fulfill your purpose for your life. Remember in Genesis, God re-assessed everything he created and he said “it was Good.” Apply that to your life now, he looked back after he created you and said the same thing. God’s choice and decision is always perfect, and we know he is not the author of confusion.
God knew you would mess up making this decision, so he chose by himself. If you think you’d have made a better decision than God, think again. Embrace this inevitable facts about you. Some people can change their gender this days through surgery. U can go through surgery or you can just accept the fact that you can never be smarter than God. Accept yourself, God made you!!!
Your love is so real..
I can always count on you to be always be here..
One of my favorite songs to you is “everywhere I go, I know you’re not far away..”
Cos you’re so real.
Your peace gives certainty..
Everyday is as gift for me to glorify your name..
You turn my mess into messages.
You help me through every difficult time.
You keep me stable in the midst of storms.
You give me a reason to strive and continue to press forward.
Oh that my ways will praise you..
That I will stop concentrating on vain things to seek your ways.
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands."-Ps 19:1
You’re my song.
I hope all the days of my life will make you happy.
Life matters cos you matter.
The reason for life is You!
You in my life makes a huge difference.
You shine your light to every darkness.
Who can stand b/f you?
Who can question your awesomeness?
So full of compassion and plenteous in mercy..
To the author of wisdom,
To whom, who sits on the throne be all the Glory, HONOR..
I bow b/f your awesomeness..
To the Lord of my life..
To my certainty in the midst of uncertainties..
My comfort
My life
My everything
My joy
My peace
Lord, you’re too much..
For all you do for me and my family..
And choosing to die on the cross for me
Am grateful..
