Social Media Blindness

Today we live in a world of Social Media Blindness!

It is truly sad what this world has become, most people live in a fantasy world!

Social Media has become one of the greatest addictions!

Isn't it ironic, how social media was made to make friends, keep in touch, build businesses, and for fun! But at the same time it has destroyed relationships, cost people their jobs, and destroyed families! People spend more time on their phones, computers and gaming devices, than they do in real life! Nothing wrong with this at all, from time to time! Just dont let it consume you!

I have seen people out together, not even speaking because they are on their phones!!

What happened to family sticking up for one another having each others back and being there, through hell or high waters? What about being loyal and standing their ground against anyone who dares to do anything against one of them? But anymore, each is for their own, instead of standing up for one another, family members turn on each other and do each other wrong, what's up with that?

Of course with that being said, if a family member is abusing you, or toxic in anyway, you have the right to cut them out of your life, family or not, yes forgive and ask God to bless them, but sometimes you have to put up healthy boundaries.

What happened to ride or die friends? I am talking about guys and their guy friends, girls and their girl friends. But now days each is for their own, it's like whatever! No one seems to care about anyone else but themselves!  Sad really!

And do I dare speak about relationships? They should be respectful, faithful, loyal and trusting, loving, kind and understanding, with great communication! And they should never allow anyone to come between that! Stand up for your partner, have their back! Love is a choice, choose to always do what's right! Never do anything you wouldn't want them doing to you! Be the person, you want them to be.

But anymore-people just think of themselves!

Don't ignore the people in your life who are there in the real world over social media! Don't lose sight of the people who truly have your back! Don't allow toxic people in your life either! Ask God to forgive them and bless them, and move on!

God says to love and forgive, but that doesn't mean, we have to allow fake and toxic people in our life, no matter who they are! Not everyone who talks, smiles, and comments is your friend, people fake it very well!  They are looking for a way to come in and destroy! The devil is working overtime, he came to this earth, to kill, steal and destroy!! So be careful, because even wolves wear sheep's clothing!

God wants us to have a happy life, he wants us to have joy in our hearts and we can through him. We can have joy in our hearts because we are saved and have him in our life. But he also wants us to be happy here on earth.

Social Media can be the devils stomping ground in disguise destroying friendships, destroying families and relationships! Some people don't even care, they make it their goal to come in like a saint and destroy what they can! The devil is disguised as something great, to fool you! Some people don't care if a person is taken, they will slither their way in acting all sweet and looking good, saying all the right things and make it a game just to see if they can! Watch out for the Jezebel spirits they are everywhere!!

It's a shame I have to say this, but you truly don't know someone until you meet and spend time with them. People pretend and say anything, doesn't mean it's TRUE! They could have pics photo-shopped or it might not be them at all. Don't lose sight of what's real, and don't lose what's real over social media!!

I would love to see people bring morals and values back! I would love to see people bring love, respect, trust and loyalty back! I would love to see people bring honesty and great communication back! And I would love to see people actually sticking together through everything and not worry about that person going anywhere or turning to someone else! Let's take a stand and fight for what's right!

Two steps forward and one step back!

Sometimes life will throw you a curve ball and we have to step back! 

This teaches us many things in life, sometimes it means we are not ready, sometimes it teaches 

us how difficult life can be, and to never give up.

When this happens take time to breathe, take time off and make a new plan. Then pick yourself up and get back on track. You will learn from this experience and have more knowledge. It doesn't matter how slow you go, as long as you are moving!!

It's not easy to admit to our-self or others that we have no idea where our life is headed. You work hard for years, a lot of sweat and tears. You have reached the top, you have hit the bottom, only too start all over again.

Things happen....life gets the best of us. Sometimes it's our fault and sometimes it's not, but you have to be brave, slow down and breathe and start again.

The most important thing you can do is admit it, come to terms with it and allow yourself to step back. It doesn't mean you are defeated, and won't rise again, it just means you need time to think and reground and rise even higher.

So what can we do when we are faced with this type of situation:

• Take some time off/breathe/re-focus
• Observe the situation
• Retrace your steps where you went wrong
• Learn from it and remember for future reference
• Let go/forgive self/forgive others
• Educate yourself/Better yourself
• Make a list step by step what you need to achieve
• Mark it off and reward yourself
• Continue taking steps until to reach your goals
• Never stop learning/Never stop bettering yourself
• Keep moving forward!!

REMEMBER:

Things will get better with time!

Slow progress is better than no progress!

Let go of what is holding you back and what is keeping you from moving forward.

So step back and take a look! Every step counts, even baby steps!

It might take a while before you reach your final goal, but remember its not about the goal at the end, it's about embracing the journey along the way.

Even though we will hit many bumps along the way, eventually the goals will be reached. Stay focused on what makes you happy and what you want to achieve and reward yourself along the way. No matter how slow your progress is, it is still progress and you should be content with it.

Two steps forward and one step back is still one step forward!

Living In Perilous Times

Wow! Just when you think 2020 can't get any worse, here comes more bad news...

First it started with the coronavirus. The media put so much fear in people that it caused a big separation among the people!

We The People need to use our common sense and stay home if we are sick. And when we go out, use precautions and wash our hands! Stuff we have known our whole lives!

Now we have protesting, rioting, and looting. People hurting people just because they are different. The devil has come to kill, steal, and destroy. Wake up, people! Look around at what is happening (more and more separation)!

We have got to stand up for our rights and for Jesus Christ! He loves each and everyone of us equally, more than any of us deserve! He will forgive our sins; all we have to do is repent.

In John 3:16: "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

The Bible also says in Matthew 10:33, "But whosoever shall deny Me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven."

We need to get prepared and protect our families! We need to spread the word to as many people as we can! The Lord is coming back soon; you do not want to be left behind! If you think its bad now, it's nothing compared to what's coming!

God knows I have a big heart, my biggest and worst asset! I love way more than most, I would literally lay down my life for the ones that I love, including Jesus Christ! God told me to take my big heart and spread His word; and when the good Lord speaks, I listen!

Get ready and get prepared; we are living in perilous times!!

Make Your Own Alkaline Water

I call it balancing out your body!

It is amazing how this can improve a lot of your body functions! It has helped me tremendously!!

Alkaline Water-has a higher pH level than regular drinking water. It is believed that it can neutralize the acid in your body.

Alkaline water can balance the body's acidity to help reach a healthy pH level. The typical number is 7.4, which is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. Any number below 7 is considered acidic, and anything above is considered alkaline; 7 is considered neutral.

Our bodies are excellent at controlling our pH levels without any help, if you eat a healthy diet. Processed foods and foods high in animal proteins are more likely to increase acidity levels and throw off your digestive system; throwing off your balance. A good pH balance can heal the body and mind.

The digestive system is impacted with excess acid, which can cause: acid reflux, indigestion, bloating, and other ailments. Alkaline water is one way to help manage that balance and lower  acidity in the body, especially for those suffering from gastric acid conditions.

When your body is overloaded with acidity, the respiratory and immune systems also suffer, so keeping a pH balance helps reduce the spread of germs, and helps transfer fresh oxygen to the cells.

A lot of acidity can weaken the nervous system, skeletal system and muscular system. Alkaline water can help in strengthening those body systems by keeping them in good working condition. Your complexion will also benefit. Alkaline water can help break down acidic inflammation that lead to skin conditions, such as rashes, sores, and breakouts.

 

You can make your own with natural ingredients:

*Clean filtered water

*Organic lemon

*Pink Himalayan salt

When these are combined, the water is more alkaline and raises the pH level.

To make a gallon (128 ounces), you need a clean gallon jug or container...

Mix in 128 ounces of clean filtered water.
Add 2 organic lemons — washed, cleaned, and cut into eighths.
Then add 2 tsp of pink Himalayan salt.

Cover and let mixture sit for 12 hours at room temperature.

Pour in glass and enjoy!

***If you have high blood pressure, I would decrease the amount of Himalayan salt to 1 tsp, 1/2 tsp, or even none. But if you only consume 1 serving a day, you should be OK, but always consult with your doctor first.

When you are first starting with alkaline water, start out with 4 ounces, then increase to 6, then 8 ounces, once a day. Introduce it to your body gradually. Once your body is used to those amounts,  I would suggest 8 to 24 ounces a day (I do 24 ounces). I do this every morning!

These are just my suggestions.

***Always consult with your physician before adding any supplement to your diet***

I swear by this, but I also try and eat healthy plus exercise and walk, and I also drink a sufficient amount of water. 

Enjoy!!

Dating As A Christian

 

This one is for all the people out there looking for the right person to date as a Christian!

First of all, PRAY for a partner who has a relationship with God... who has Godly qualities such as (kindness, patience, humility)!

When you are serving God, you should date with the intention of getting married. Only date if you see them as a potential life long partner, evaluate to see if they would be a good fit for you. Be the person you want to marry. Get to know each other. Compare: values, morals, interests, goals, methods of worship — to see if you are compatible.

Save yourself for marriage (even if you have been in other relationships before). Set boundaries; be honorable and respectful. Decide what is allowed and what is not!

The Bible describes pure love. In 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, it describes how you should treat your partner: 

"LOVE IS PATIENT, LOVE IS KIND, IT DOES NOT ENVY, IT DOES NOT BOAST, IT IS NOT PROUD. IT DOES NOT DISHONOR OTHERS, IT IS NOT SELF-SEEKING, IT IS NOT EASILY ANGERED, IT KEEPS NO RECORDS OF WRONGS. LOVE DOES NOT DELIGHT IN EVIL BUT REJOICES WITH THE TRUTH. IT ALWAYS PROTECTS, ALWAYS TRUSTS, ALWAYS HOPES, ALWAYS PERSEVERES, LOVE NEVER FAILS."

There are gonna be times, when things are difficult, rely on God! There could be arguments. You might not see eye to eye, there could be grief, ups and downs. But no matter what: DO NOT TURN AGAINST EACH OTHER, TRUST IN GOD! If you can work on these things now, it will pave a way for your future. Getting through the easy times is easy. But when you get through the hard times, and even grow closer, that proves you can have a future together. Pray and trust in God to help you both find a solution.

Avoid situations that could tempt you to sin! When you have a Christ-centered relationship, you should avoid people, places, and situations where you could be tempted to do something or even say something you shouldn't; that would displease God and your partner. Don't do anything or say anything behind your partners back that you wouldn't want them doing to you. This is displeasing to God, and disproves your loyalty. Remember: WHAT IS DONE IN DARKNESS, ALWAYS COMES TO LIGHT!

Make time for each other and spend time together and do fun activities. You could go out to eat, go for a walk, a picnic, a movie, a date, worship together, pray together, there are numerous things you can do as a couple.

Spend time each day praying, reading scripture and listen for Gods calling on your life and encourage your partner to do the same. Attend worship activities together, study scriptures together, pray together, pray for each other, and support each other.

Remember this, write it down, hang it up, just remember!!

IF IT IS GODS WILL, GODS WILL, WILL BE DONE!

NOTHING COULD EVER COME BETWEEN THAT!

TRUST YOUR PARTNER, TRUST GOD AND PRAY!

WE ARE ALL EQUAL, NO ONE IS BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE!

THERE IS NOTHING TO FEAR!

IF THEY BELONG TO YOU, THEY CAN'T BE TAKEN, AND IF THEY

ARE, THEY NEVER WERE YOURS!

I have studied and talked and researched and the best advise ever:

TWO IMPERFECT PEOPLE NEVER GIVING UP ON EACH OTHER

AGREE TO DISAGREE

TWO VERY GOOD FORGIVERS
