Stop and Look!

About a week ago, I had phone issues my trackball wouldn't work and I became very frustrated after numerous attempts of not getting the trackball to work I knew I had to either have it fixed by someone who knows about fixing such things or get a new phone, the latter was not an option, I can't afford a new cell phone so I needed to fix the one I had. After a hard day at work I walked into a shop where there is also a cell phone tech dude, for the life of me I don't know how I never even gave a glance towards this guy and I often go to that shop. He resulted in fixing my scroller and what happened after that was all God, you know that moment when you are so frustrated and you just like saying to God 'Lord! When am I gonna get a break?' And you are close to tears and BOOM! Breakthrough happens, well that's what happened to me last week, this guy not only fixed my phone but he was a great part of fixing my eyes upon Jesus and looking through the eyes of the Lord, in my busyness I never stopped and really took note of my environment, how sad is that we all get so caught up in our own lives that we don't see what God wants us to see, in my frustration God had me STOP! He had me HALT and pause 'selah' for a moment to just take in my surroundings and be open to even befriending a foreigner from Iran, the cellphone tech dude who fixed my phone, who has a name, who is a person , who has feelings and who so longs to just be heard, who so longs to belong, who so longs sincerity, who is one of the most humble people I have ever come across, we are friends now and we talk a lot about anything and everything most importantly I started praying for him, I started encouraging him with the word of the Lord, my friend who's name is Honey Shah is Muslim and he is open to be encouraged and just to be listened to. My lesson for the last week is: Do not get so caught up in your own life that you don't see what God wants you to see, allow God to interrupt your normal routine with divine appointments and see how your heart gets changed towards things you've never imagined possible' even making friends with people who can resonate with you, allow God to use you, there is a hurting world in need of love, care a listening ear, are you willing to STOP and look to see what God wants to show you?

I THANK YOU...

Today I have this IMMENSE gratitude towards people whom I have known for a season and whom have now either removed themselves from my life with ill intentions or whom has accepted my way of ending our season. I must say I never thought that some friendship doors that I had to close were laying so heavily on my heart and it was holding me back. I do feel FREE and I am moving forward at a pace that is surprising me, ALL GLORY TO GOD! I have such gratitude towards those people who have moved on for whatever reason and I am so filled with JOY this morning that my soul cannot contain it and I want to speak a blessing over each person whom I have had the honor of knowing but who has now moved on, I pray a blessing of GREAT things to come in your life and I PRAY THAT GOD WILL SHOW YOU MIGHTY THINGS AND THAT YOU WILL STAY CLOSE TO JESUS, IN JESUS NAME,MAY YOU LATTER BE GREATER THAN YOUR FORMER, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN! Just a small ENCOURAGEMENT for those out there who is still holding onto to...

No one is always busy...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...

Thought for the day...

When someone shares something with you in confidence don't go jumping on their issues' band wagon, don't make their issue yours, respect their issue in the way it is presented to you don't go making up your own stories because in the end the person who shared with you has made peace with it and you who has now made it your issue is just showing that you are not that "mature" to deal with the information given, examine your own heart and deal with your issue accordingly. We are all different and we deal with things differently and work through things differently so let us respect the differences, doesn't make my way right and your way wrong. It is what it is
