A heart full of disappointment

Why Jesus came

Break the stronghold of perfectionism and trying to have it all figured out! Our daily bread is just enough. One step at a time!

Loving them from the parking lot!

Have you ever thought that forgiveness and reconciliation were interchange? One in the same? Have you even taught that no matter what someone does , you have only truly forgave when reconciliation proceeded forgiveness? This can be with family, friends, associates , whatever. That is a lie from the put of hell! One on hand , To forgive is to release a debt, to pardon the person and bless them. To let go of vengeance and any malice , wish them well and love them as God loves you. To have humility and admit that we all have sinned and deserve good things from God in spite of ! We wish that for them truly from our hearts! Other the hand, reconciliation is the restoration of friendly relations. Not all forgiveness will come with reconciliation. Both parties must be willing to humble themselves and repent, take accountability, go through the necessary steps and make the changes to restore the relationship to a healthy place! This requires willingness on both parties while forgiveness only requires one! Forcing reconciliation through false humility. False humility being apart of being prideful, a prideful disguise. False humility happens feel we owe it someone/ a religious duty to lessen ourselves (guilt being a tactic of the enemy) or because we fear the judgement of appearing prideful to someone else (people pleasing) so we “humble” ourselves. Doing a disservice to both parties and operating out of a false identity! That is not who God said you are! He calls you to stand! Stand firm in His word about you! His promises! The truth of who you are! You don’t need to not be you to preserve any relationship! And when God divides a relationship, LET HIM! Through conflict you will see what relationships are really of God! Some require more space and time . Do not fight and disobey God fighting against what’s best for your future and your identity in efforts to continue or protect a relationship isn’t for you in this season! God may or may not bring it back . Let God work it out in the way He sees necessary ! And sometimes the best option is to love them from the parking lot!!

A heart full of disappointment

Have you ever faced constant disappointment? Feeling like God is against you and just don’t care or see you? Like He refuses to bless anything you put your hands ? Like you must have angered God or simply misheard him because if He really loves you or spoke this promise over you , your life would be different ? He would’ve blessed a couple of your endeavors? Find out just how an ignorant expectation or predication we place on ourselves and our lives can lead to a disappointed heart and distant relationship between you and God! Learn to surrender your will to God’s will! That God knows all things & rejection is not denial! God has a better plan! So forgive yourself for your mistakes! God is making it work for your God! He will fulfill!

Who really knows it all?

Now after this episode, you may feel discombobulated. Confused. It diminishes everything you thought you knew about life and everyone else. It reminds you of the FACT, that you indeed know nothing! That God has a plan that is beyond you and your understanding & you cannot control it! You cannot determine how and when it will come. What it will look like, how it will be , or what you will do in each situation. It is predetermined and you have no idea what it will look like. Leave the world to God! Let Him deal with it! You just steward well whatever He has given you. Be the “YOU”, that He calls you to be. Pray for others, be of good character to others and He will do the rest. Let God handle His people! You just do the best with what He has given you (through the help of Christ) with joy unto the Lord! Philippians 4:11-13 New International Version “ 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” You cannot control all things or unveil things that God does not deem necessary for you to know at the time. You just have to trust Him, and whatever timing and instrument He uses and have solace in that fact that if you rest in God , obey his commandments and decrees and trust Him, He will be your refuge and protectable.

Intro to my confessions

I want to share with you guys my struggles! Confessing my sins to you to let you know, whoever you are, that YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Gods still loves you! Jesus STILL loves you! 🎶 JESUS LOVES ME , THIS I KNOW! 🎶 there’s always a way out as long as there is breath in your lungs and a God that loves you!! So I want to share my sins, past and current, and my recipe so far about how to go about fixing them and hearing from God! #1) Recognize the fruit( what the “act” is. (Where is the chaos and confusion? What is replaying in my head? What am I doing? What’s the sin?) #2) Recognize the intent behind it. (Why am I doing it? What’s my intentions? What am I hoping to get from this?) #3) Recognize the trauma behind it. Be honest with God. (What is triggering my intention? What makes me feel like I need to commit this sin?) #4) Listen to God. Distinguish God’s voice telling you the right thing to do vs. the other guy👎 (How do I get out of this? Is this advice actually what’s best for me or does it just provide a temporary fix? Does it line up with the word of God? Is this the truth about me? Does it line up with what God said about me?) #5) MAKE THE DECISION! It’s all in our decision making skills! (Which “me” do I want to be? Do I want to stay here? What do I want ?) #6) BE BRAVE! Stand firm in your decision. Trust that God loves you no matter what you chose even if you don’t get it righ the first time! It’s a process ! He’s there through it all . You’ll get better with time! And when your tired of it, you’ll make the change! God wade in the water with you! He will never leave nor forsake you! There’s no condemnation for those who are in Christ!
