I just used Jesus, niggas, and (God’s) Love in the same sentence….is that okay?
Lord where I have failed you, may it glorify your sacrificial Love!
“We are the only species in the world that claims a God, yet we behave as if we don’t have one.” - Hunter S. Thompson
I gave away like $80 during the holidays!
Praise the Lord! May we build treasures in Heaven.
Give me truth.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Stay strong - words of encouragement
“For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” - 2 Corinthains 12:10.
I memorized this verse to give to people when they need it. Even a non-Christian can learn something valuable from this. This is saying that all the struggles we go through are not pointless and in vain. Being weak is not a failure, it does not make you a bad person. It means you’re human! Being weak, accepting & knowing that you’re weak, builds character……it builds humility and it humbles you. Just as an olive tree needs to pruned and cut all the way down to a stump, so new shoots can grow out and produce new olives. So then you can grow and start to change. To be strong, first you have to be weak. And we’re all weak at some point, the key is to know we’re weak and start to grow and change. This verse has taught me after sitting on my bathroom floor and weeping, that I couldn’t live like that anymore. (I’ve come a long way since then.) Most importantly, I learned that there is somebody out there that loves me enough to take me where I am, in my mess of mistakes, and want to help me.
Why is that I feel like every girl that wants a relationship with me does not love the LORD?!
I want someone with the same frame to their life as mine!
