Hello beautiful people!

We all are in some stage of our life-whether it be high school, college, middle school, adulthood, elementary… so on. I have come to the conclusion that sadly a lot of us can forget how important we are in Gods eyes because we are constantly being bombard with lies everyday and temptations telling us to please people. The devil comes like a hungry lion seeking to devour, to destroy the truth and with all he’s got.  Let me tell you the devil comes to STRESS you out with lies, while the God almighty comes to overwhelm your hearts with LOVE.

Personally, I can beat myself up so much sometimes over little things people say. Whether my loud laugh makes someone annoyed or the way I dress makes people look at me weird. EVERY TIME I bring myself to ask, “why am I so upset by it?” wait….key word EVERY-TIME, not one time. This tells you that people will let down over and over and over again and upset you when you can’t please them, because people do not satisfy FOREVER or let alone at all. The pleasure of pleasing them is temporary and not worth the time ahead of you. At the moment it feels so right yet in the future you’ll realize it leads to a road of hurt. I’ve had my fair share with trying to please others and its not fun when you pour all your heart out in a friendship or a relationship and all you are left with is an empty gaping hole in your chest. People aren’t who we should be trying to please when the only one who we need approval to eternal life is God, the one that already loves you relentlessly. We all are sinners, one sin on top of another, the thing we don’t understand is even at church, people will let down. They too are sinners. Only HE is perfect in all HIS ways. We all fall short of the glory of God, yet he still love us.

BAM…. sorry that was my mind kinda being blown.

TRUTH:

Humans look at others on the outside appearance, unlike God who only looks at the inner beauty of your heart. When the devil tries convincing you into believing that with God you are worthless, tell the devil Not today. You are beautiful. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. You are loved. You are forgiven. You are priceless in the eyes of the LORD most high. The creator of the heavens and the starry night sky, created you here. You wonder how can God love me for all I’ve done let alone anyone forgive me for being a sinner. Hear me out: God is more than enough, he is a God who satisfies and who overflows your cup. So because God is so much more than enough, with God we are enough. Us sinners don’t deserve to be forgiven, yet because of God’s mercy, we aren’t only forgiven but we are loved beyond compare. The chains that hold you, are now gone because of God. The shame of your past is now a period. Letting the past go and the NEW chapter begin, because of GOD. The fear put into my mind is now crushed under HIS feet and shielded by the armor of GOD. The ways of the world that fill your past are thrown away and given a new name and hope ahead, because of GOD! And it’s all because of GOD! Thank you Lord !!!

Know it:

You are here for a purpose. Yes!! Believe it friend! Not only that but if you ever start doubting the way God loves you, then let me stop you right there! STOP! Stop walking in the way the enemy tells us too, stop walking in the street of doubts, and walking away from the walls that seem impossible to get around. As Cory Asbury sings, “There’s no wall You won’t kick down,Lie You won’t tear down, Coming after me.” MAN, OUR GOD IS GOOD! God loved you before you took your first breath and before you had a heartbeat in this world. If that wasn’t enough already, he put himself out there in the flesh, to experience the world we live in and if that there wasn’t enough. HE DIED FOR YOU as an innocent man to save all those guilty… you know why ? because HE LOVED YOU, because he LOVES you- now in this very moment and every single day of your life. His mercy has saved our soul, his wounds saved us sinners from the punishment of our sins. His death gave us our life, it gave us forgiveness from things we don’t deserve forgiveness on. So when the world tricks you into thinking WITH God you are still nothing, fight it back with the armor of God and remember how priceless you are in God’s eyes when you are a child of God and how uncontrollably loved you are by the one true king !

BE YOU, BE WHO GOD MADE YOU TO BE and never be ashamed of it. Something that had changed my perspective is if God calls us his masterpieces and he is the creator, then us sitting there pointing every flaw out about ourselves and others is criticizing his artwork, so why do that ? Why do you think God made you with your crazy curly hair that fluffs in humidity or the straight hair that won’t curl if you try anything? Why do you think God gave you a talkative personality? Why do you think God gave you millions of freckles or none at all. Why do think God gave you funny sneezes or loud laughs? FOR a reason and for a purpose. If he didn’t want you that way then he wouldn’t have created you that way. Wear your clothes that don’t match, make it a new trend! Laugh with so much joy it echoes through the whole state, wear the endless about of necklaces and bracelets you are unsure about wearing, sneeze your silly sneeze with no fear of what people will think about you. Don’t be afraid to be who God made you to be.

Have a sweet day/night ALL!❤️
