<br />
<br />
In order for me to write I have to be inspired to do so. Whereas, some people are more gifted or knowledgeable enough to sit down and began to write endlessly without effort. I struggle to put my thoughts on paper and before people. Not because I lack the gift or knowledge, but, I wonder..do people really care to read or hear what I have to say? Let me ask you a question, why do you do what you do? Is it because you're just good at it? Is your answer as simple as, it's just what comes natural to you?<br />
<br />
As obvious as my gift of writing is to others, for me that's not the case. I struggle with wanting to make sense of it all. I struggle with living in reality everyday of my life, and how to transfer that to paper. Similar to having a calling that you may struggle to accept, and instead you wrestle with it as if it's a W.F.W. match. Only exception is this opponent, your calling, is not surrendering to you. It's like a nightmare that comes to haunt you in your sleep, or a significant other that you can't get off your mind. Your calling keeps pursuing you. I define a "calling" as your ultimate purpose for being created in the first place. So, what called you hear? Is it a burden because you have unresolved selfishness that has made you stale?<br />
It feels like the walls are closing in most days, and the roof is caving in the next. You know, we create the conditions, environments, and seasons we want to live in by being proactive in preparing or living day to day as if "tomorrow" doesn't exist. "Plowing your field" responsibly helps you create comfortable conditions, environments, and seasons in your future. When you are actively engaged in your calling, you won't be anywhere around anybody outside of purpose. Meaning every move you make, and every hand you shake will be a strategic move that takes you to the next level of where you are meant to go! Am I making sense? ::I'm asking for feedback::<br />
Who exist now that can't leave without getting what you have been created to offer? What doesn't exist now that has been waiting on you to create it? You are the plug that some socket out there need for <span style="color: red;">POWER</span>! I am trying to get back into the habit of writing and blogging consistently. Most of the time, I am not using my gift as I should be. That's my struggle, don't judge me! <span style="color: red;">LOL</span>!<br />
For the last year I have grown and evolved as an individual, I <span style="color: red;">THOUGHT</span> I had learned the lesson of not putting myself in relationships or environments that are not meant for me, but I'm still in school on that one. (My struggle) I have outgrown certain people, habits, and environments that I keep returning to. (My struggle) I am continuing to be true to who I am. (My calling) As you grow older it is vital to your maturity that you be true to who you organically are as a person. I know the pressure society can inflict on us as individuals to conform, however, to be an individual simply means to be divided from others. Your calling is divided from other individuals. No one persons' calling is more important than the other. What's important is that you know what you are created for. When you examine your life's past, present, and future you will discover you were born alone, at the present, you make decision's for yourself, and in the future you will leave here alone. Your individual identity is important as a human. Your personality, personal style, and choice in the type of people that influence you, say a lot about you as an individual.<br />
If I am not being who I am authentically created and called to be than how can I expect to leave my distinguished mark in the earth? I have to fight the daily match between conforming or compromising my belief, personality; the genius of who I am. Who <span style="color: red;">YOU</span> called to be as an individual, embrace that! Your individuality started in your mother's womb, it was shaped and activated by various value's your family taught you. Growing older we meet the pressure of forsaking our individuality to fit into our societies' ridiculous stereotype's and ideologies. We embrace their ideologies by force when we are too afraid to be our own individual-operating in our calling. <span style="color: red;">=U</span>TRU RELIGIONhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06285293691393994657noreply@blogger.comFlorida, USA30.448673679287559 -84.28710937528.69613467928756 -86.868896375 32.201212679287558 -81.705322375tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6605791195113206093.post-10774160982653065922014-01-12T13:43:00.005-08:002015-07-15T11:16:09.986-07:00Suffering in my feelings<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't even know if I'm truly happy in my current relationship, or I am just stuck in it to save face- fearing the disapproval of people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fu#k people! Fu#k people being in there feelings, fu#k people who take me for granted! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Who cares about my feelings? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't tell me you do care when I'm still suffering and being tormented on the inside by my own thoughts, own feelings, own emotions because of LOVE!<br />
Whose gonna save me from a broken heart?<br />
Whose gonna bring me back to lYfe? </div>

I believe we all at some point lose grip of our passion for whatever it is we have been created to do. When we have a clear focus on our purpose it will not be hard to re-ignite that fire, and continue to evolve in our passion. In order to evolve in our passion we have to overcome all negative thoughts, and low self-esteem so we can get back on track. To be successful our lives we have to go after life with all the determination, and ambition that is in us. Sometime's we need some help getting back on track, I pray this will inspire you to get your fire back for your passion. Some time's we need the help of other's in getting back on track. We have to be careful that while seeking the aid of other's we can not become co-dependent on their help to the point we use them as a crutch when God has given us our own two legs to walk with.
<br />
<br />
Alot of times in losing our passion, if we are not careful, we can become lazy and stagnant, thus delaying the success that we desire to possess. I am guilty of this; with all the gift and ability I have been born with, I have become very lazy and co-dependent on other's. I had to wake-up and realize my success and progress toward my dream's aren't in the hands of my parents, or friends. My ability to be successful is in my own hands, my desire to be a millionaire is in my own hands, my drive to obtain a college degree is in my own hands. When we evaluate the talent's that God have given us, we will notice we already have the skill and strength to have the same success that other's around us have. YOU can live in a 10 bedroom mansion, YOU can drive any car you desire, YOU can be as financially secure as you want to be, however, you have to work for it. I am not talking about the obvious definition of work; getting up everyday going to a 9-5 just to get a check every other week. No I am speaking of working the field of your passion, your gift, your calling. Nobody is going to just give you the benefit's of being productive, YOU have to go after it! Use your brain, use your back, use your feet, use your intellect to produce the success that you desire to possess.
<br />
<br />
Work smarter, not harder!
<br />
<br />
We can not live lower then we have been created to live any longer. Your dream's can be reality when you get up and go after the opportunity. You have to work yours out, stop allowing the devil to hold you back. Tell the devil to lose the grip he has on your mind. Cast out that spirit of laziness, cast out that spirit of stagnation. Get up and go after IT!

<em>At first every event is exciting and new. All you can think about are the amazing new experiences you are about to be exposed to and the new information you will discover on this long journey. While transcribing an interview, you get used to the interviewee’s voice, style of speech and verbal ticks (if I hear the words “you know what I’m saying” one more time…). While carrying a baby, the soon-to-be mother might at first become enthralled by feeling the first kick or witnessing her own body change shape for another being.</em><br />
<em>By the middle of the journey, the outlook starts to get bleaker and the difficulties of the process set in. The morning sickness hits and you don’t know how many more times you can run to the bathroom. You realize that you’ve listened to the same three seconds about 50 times and there is no way you will understand the mumbling. You begin to question how much longer you can go on for.</em><br />
<em>The last stretch is the toughest. You push and push and fight through everything in your mind that’s telling you to stop—and out comes a beautiful baby. It was all worth it. You forget about every last second of the pain because the ultimate accomplishment is worth more than any struggle.</em>TRU RELIGIONhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06285293691393994657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6605791195113206093.post-82728487868815740472011-01-25T10:49:00.000-08:002011-01-25T11:00:48.134-08:00The oxymoron of A New Year.<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">It was all good just a week ago, now 7even days later everything has changed,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Still unemployed. Now homeless. <em>Niggas'</em> Snitchin' (U Rat Bastard)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The one thing I admire about <em>my</em> own writing abilities, is it's diversity, and versatility. The landscape of writing can be so broad and deep, the limits are unlimited. So allow me a few lines to vent my thoughts through my blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Today I sit on the verge of cracking, but in all this I realized that <em>niggas'</em> are 2-faced. And just as quickly as God gives, He can take away. When 2011 rolled in I had a firm grip on my focus, but a Lil distraction came along and I lost grip of that focus I was holding on too. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I admit it was my fault, every decision, every act, has a consequence.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Now I have to redeem myself, and I don't know how long it's gone take. I'm just mad at myself, more then I'm mad at God, or anybody else.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Life is a game, some times you win, some times you lose...<em>sometimes you crap.</em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><u>I crapped.</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I realized the results of my action, but I'm more so surprised at people snitchin' on me, I wish people would learn to shut their mouth, and mind their own business.<em> My</em> life, and <em>my </em>business ain't got nothing to do with yours, you rat bastard. I think God for self-control and temperance because their are a few choice words I can use freely right now, but that's either here, nor there, and I'm much mature then that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">But more so I want to encourage you whose reading this, to keep pushing forward. Trouble don't last always, and if God brought you to it, He will see you through it. Today is not the end of the road for you, and I faithfully write that your life is far from over. You may be experiencing some turblence right now, but I want to encourage you to fasten the belt of confidence around your waste, and just relax your worrying mind. <em>Trouble don't last always.</em> I firmly believe that God will never put more on you then you can bear, and you have the mental capacity, to make things happen. What you see in the spiritual can manifest itself in the nature. If only you stay focused, consistent, and faithful with whatever it is God is telling you to do. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><u>But His promises are conditional. </u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You can't expect to receive from God, and not be willing to sacrifice something on your end. Yes God's promises are true, and they will come to pass if only we will obediently align ourselves with the word of God, which is foundational. And the things he is calling us to change within ourselves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<u><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Problem</span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Sin can and will disrupt the streamline of favor, and blessings that are ordained for your life. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<u><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Solution</span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Rid your space of all the things in you that cause more damage then good.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />

Last year I got away from writing in my journal, and updating my blog on a consistent basis. Please forgive me for my inconsistency, I believe we all go through seasons and situations that pull us away from the things we are passionate about. I encourage you to try your best this year to remain committed to, and consistent in the things that you are passion about, and feel so connected to. It's easy to allow circumstances in our lives to overwhelm us to the put of being inactive, and uninvolved in our pursuits of destiny. Every goal you set can be achieved, every desire in your heart can be attained, and every dream you have can come true. If first, you trust in God, and committed to your dream. Try as best you can to not allow negative people, negative thinking, negative habits to take root in your life, to the point it distracts you from your ultimate purpose in life. We are all created for a reason, and when the internal clock of our lives runs out, we still have to answer to God about what we made out of the lives' He has given us. <br />
<br />
I decided this year will be my greatest year, and I will finish everything I started. There are some idea's and things I started on, and had to put on the back burner because I became distracted in my own personal affairs, and issues. My friend, you can not become this way. Your gifts, and talents are the things that make you unique. They are the things that set you apart from your peers. These are the things that give you an outlet from the chaos in the world, and even the chaos within your own self. Take some time this year, and tap into your true being, go beyond the surface of your looks, and seek to find out your true identity in the God. It's not surprising to me how many people walk the face of the earth, and claim to know who they are, when the truth is they have no clue whose they are, or even what they were created for. You owe it to yourself to discover your true identity and it will blow your mind.<br />
<br />
Honestly, It took me 5 years to come to terms with who I am, and what I am created to do. And I know my journey to discovery is not over. But this year I am so committed to fulfilling the calling in my life, and bring out the best in those in my social circle. Ask your friends do they know what they were created for. Ask those you have intimate relationships with do they honestly believe there's more to their lives' then what they presently have. If they can give you a profound and sincere answer then committee to helping each other toward a healthy pursuit of self-identity. If there answer is something along the lines of, "I don't know," or "I'm not sure" then take the initiative to walk the journey with them. Your life will be better for it. But if those in your circle act nonchalant or detached spiritually toward this questions then they are the ones not ordained to walk the journey with you. <br />
<br />
Set some time apart for yourself, to do some true self-discovery. And once you come to terms with your purpose in life, immediately walk in it. Leave the past in the past, because your future is brighter then your eyes can see.<br />
<br />
See you in the future, enjoy the journey.<br />

God has placed a lot in me and I have to use it for HIS glory. I don’t wanna die knowing that all the unsaved people around me never heard about God from my mouth. I don’t wanna die knowing that I never fulfilled my mission. I guess it’s time that I start doing everything that he has called me to do. EVERYTHING! I’m about to lose a lot of friends and I’m okay with that. As long as I have God, I’m okay. I’ve always cheated on God and went back and forth with my flesh. And now I’m at a point where I’m tired of that. It’s soooo hard to get to Christ once you’re soooo far gone. The enemy will make things look soooo good that God looks boring. Think about it….Being high, drunk, and having sex sounds sooooo much better than going to church on sunday morning. Whether you realize it or not though, it’s all a downward spiral to stop you from being in purpose. What’s being in purpose? Screaming at the top of your lungs that God is God alone not only with your words but with your actions. People oughtta see u operating in the spirit 24/7. That sounds sooooo hard! I know cuz I’ve been there. Being at the altar on sundays, and rolling a blunt on monday….Knowing God has more for my life. Or putting a condom on and hearing the Holy Spirit saying what u doing shawty?! U know that aint right? What can he/she do for u that I can’t? And I go back and forth saying that it’s only sex and just this one more time. Making excuses for my sins…Why?! and then the next morning that seed that i planted through my act is all in my head. I can’t stop thinking about how good it was! And not thinking about how can I please God today…how can I lead my friend to Christ today?! See where I’m going…..? People God has sooooo much in store for us but we can’t get it if we operate in the flesh! We can’t get it if we out here doing the exact opposite of what we know that God wants! Just call His name! Confess your sins! Accept Christ! Now Believe! He got on a cross for this reason!

I have reached a dead-end, and can only go in two directions, left or right. To the left of me is my own desire to screw every Ryan, Trey, or Antwuan that pass my way. To the right is God's desire for me to get married and have children. To the left of me is my un-denying willingness to just settle, and become satisfied with this state of mind I'm currently in. To the right is God's spirit pushing toward his will of happiness, and total completeness. To the left of me is a tug toward a minimum wage lifestyle, and to the right is my greatness. To the left is depression and misery masked in instant gratification or quickies. And to the right is Gods' promise to me of abundant life. DO YOU GET MY POINT?<div>I am in at the crossroad of decisions about my future,and no one can help me but me, and my prayer life with God. I have been in this valley for six years now, and I haven't moved as fast as I should. I have let my struggle handle me, more then I should have been handling it. I gave in too many times to my own shortcomings, more times then I can count. Even in the midst of all my mess, He was there, and helped me out all the time. God knows all this, even as I stand at this crossroad He knows what turn I should take, but He isn't going to make it for me. I have to do it for myself. But my problem isn't making the turn, the problem is turning away from what I know all too well, the things I've gotten used too, the only 'family' I know, other then my true blood. Turning away from memories of my best relationships, taking off the rags of my struggle, for a crown of fulfillment, and peace. But these rags fit so well, the memories are too good to let go of. My friends are the best of anybody else I met. But under my goofiness, and shyness, the crying never stops. The longing to do more with my life is never satisfied. The hunger to be famous, want go away. My dreams are tugging on me everyday, and all I do is ignore them. I talk about doing better, but my feet never move. </div><div><br />

I gotta find the motivation to push on,even while I don't feel like it. But where will that motivation come from? Will you continue to live with your addiction, or will you seek God's help to overcome it? You can not spend another day talking about getting your life together, without going to God first. Get off the couch of life, and do something with your life! The couch gives us permission to be lazy, the couch gives us permission to be stagnant, the couch gives us permission to be stuck. The couch isn't your allie, it's your enemy. The couch is your rival, it supports your desire to be nothing, and do nothing. <br />
I have been in this place of complacency and unporductivity before, but I will not die here, when there is more out there for my life. I have 8 younger siblings who look up to me, I have to set the standard. I get down on my knees to pray, and all the Lord keep saying to me is, "this ain't the way I designed your life to be." If you don't like the journey your life is taking, pray for change. Get out of the driver's seat and let God take control. Let Him save you! Then you can relax, your in good hands. Leave your past in the rearview mirror, stop looking back, dust your feet off. And walk into your future, or get lost. <span style="color: red;">JE</span>sus Christ knows your heart, and your hearts desire. <span style="color: red;">JE</span>sus Christ did not die in vain, you are just an ally for this diseater. <span style="color: red;">JE</span>sus Christ knows that if He died, something good has to come out of your lyfe. Show God that your worth dying for. Learn to protect your space from people who are speaking the wrong things. Do a better job of guarding your ear, that is your only source to hearing God.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Recently I went to see the movie, 'How to train your dragon' and the movie takes place in a mythical village where a teenage boy aspires to follow his father's tradition of being a dragon slayer. After finally capturing his first dragon, the teenage boy finds that he no longer has the desire to kill the dragon and instead befriends it. Sounds like many of us and the spirits we should be fighting off, instead we have learned to live with them. Even me, it seems like at times I have settled, and become allies with the things of this world that seem to befriend me as well, but are no good for me. </div><div style="text-align: center;"> The teenage boys' name is Hiccup and Hiccup's daddy is the Chief of the village, the king, the president, the chief ruler. Hiccup's village is beset by dragons which raid their sheep, and terrorize their village. During a raid, Hiccup shoots down a rare dragon with a cannon that he made, After shooting the dragon the boy goes to the woods and finds the injured dragon, but can not bring himself to kill it. As christians, we must understand our place as son's and daughter's of <b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">THE KING</span></i></b>, God. We have to understand that we have more power then we ourselves believe we have. If God is our father, we shouldn't have no problem overcoming the dragons that stand in the way of our salvation. If God is as powerful as we confess Him to be, then we shouldn't have to battle the challenges of this life on our own. Remember the cliche` <i><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">"this battle is not ours, but God."</span></b></i> Many of us spend our entire lives' fighting dragons that should already be defeated. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">It's not suppose to be this way!</span></b> Many of us spend our whole lives' fighting spirits passed down to us through family generations, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">It's not suppose to be this way!</span></b> Many of us have made no attempts to rid ourselves of the nasty perverted spirits that pull us farther and further away from the presence of God. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">It's not suppose to be this way!</span></b> Many of us are living our lives' in a repeated cycle of rebellion, and disobedience, and failure. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">It's not suppose to be this way!</span></b> Greater is HE that is in you, then the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: yellow;"><i>DRAGONS</i></span></b> that are in this world. We spend our whole lives' fighting dragons, and we never get to pursue destiny. Because we are always pursuing the demons that seem to overpower us, when in fact, we give them the power they have. </div><div style="text-align: center;"> In the movie, the teenage boy, Hiccup, shoots down the dragon, and then goes into the woods seeing it laying there in pain and agony, and instead of ending the dragons life it has pity for it and frees it. How many times have God given you victory over your addiction only for you to go right back into the world, and pick it up again. How many times have we declared our deliverance over our afflictions, only for us to go back and resurrect it again and again. Jesus Christ didn't die, and resurrect only to be crucified over and over and over again because of our ignorance. Stop giving life to the very thing that's <b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: yellow;">KILLING</span></i></b> you. Decide that you will no longer live beneath the power that God has given you, and slay the dragon once and for all.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Thank you to every one for your encouragement and diggin' my blog. It is doing exactly what I inspired it to do, 'stare yourself in the mirror'.<br />
<br />
My next 3 post will not be as lengthy, because we are flirting with expanding the blog, to increase it's activity and exposure.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_uXE_ZJ7AZhA/S5-H7NvPHkI/AAAAAAAAAKs/6wKjIuZW3CI/s1600-h/DeadEnd.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_uXE_ZJ7AZhA/S5-H7NvPHkI/AAAAAAAAAKs/6wKjIuZW3CI/s400/DeadEnd.jpg" vt="true" width="276" /></a></div>I hear voices but not from people around, im in the car by myself, on my way to HIS house. Music pulsating in the background. And I hear voices, the voice between good & evil. These voices don't have a face, only pure & inpure motives. Talking and lauffin' with dude on the phone, as he gives me directions. And the whole time there's a war going on in me. I say to myself, "God are you serious? I thought I left you at church". How can I fit in with this struggle within me, between what is good for me, and what seems good, but really is just a road to my destruction. <em><span style="color: #cc0000;">I see good as my allie and evil as enemy</span></em>. I see evil as something that seems well, but doesn't mean well for me. Kinda like a friend who gives you the advice you want to hear, only to reap the reward of seeing you fall in return. <br />
<br />
Good says, I'll keep you from failing,<br />
<br />
Evil says, I hope you fail.<br />
<br />
I don't know what I prayed Sunday at church, but this time I see the intent of evil, it has laid the cards out on the table, and given me the option to choose. Evil is the type of friend that sets the date up for you, knowing what you want, exactly what you like, knowing your preference. And introduces you to the person knowing they got HIV, or knowing they got a reputation for being a hoe or a dawg. This time I see the path of evil, I see the path so clear, till' this time I see the destruction at the end of it. <br />
Oh how it looks so tempting, he has set me up nice. My friend knows what I want, I have all the freedom in the world to do this. It has been a long time. I've been doing so good, I think I owe it to myself. I should just blow this moment. Say, 'fuck Jesus' and do me. Tonight. I should just bail out on God, and become BFF's with my addiction, my affliction. <em><span style="color: #cc0000;">When you protect what God doesn't approve, you become its allie, and God's enemy</span>. </em>This will be my last time as I've said a 100 times before. When I'm ready to return, God will take me back. I've done good so far staying away from men, eventhough they have thrown every sign and hint at me. I've done good by walking the other way, it will just be one night with dude. It will just be one night with a drink, just one more time for me to get wasted. Hold my hand thru this Jesus. It won't hurt me. God will bail me out as he has done 10,000 times before. I'm going to dude house, and I will leave Jesus at the door, no matter of fact, Ima leave him waiting in the car. I was just in church sunday singing about God You're the fire in light,when nights are long and cold. But how much can God keep me warm when I've had a few shots, and his sweet kisses are all I think about. You foolish to believe that God is in the world. I'm taking a chance, I'm taking a risk.<span style="color: #cc0000;"> </span><em><span style="color: #cc0000;">It's funny how we call ourselves risk takers, only when we're willing to risk the right things, for the wrong reasons</span>. </em>It's funny I can't take a risk when it comes to my relationship with God, but I'm willing to take a risk that can ultimately kill me. It's like a bad gamble. I'm standing outside this nigga door, and I get convicted. <br />
<br />
God speaks,<br />
<br />
"What are you doing here? You know you aren't suppose to be doing this. What happened to getting your life back on track? Why are you using my grace, and pimp-handling my protection to satisfy a disease you've asked me over and over to cure you from. Your prayers have no weight, they are just words with no meaning. If you walk thru that door, then I will leave you for good. If you take another sip of that ciroc` say goodbye to your dreams. If you take another pull at that jay, kiss your lyfe away. You know you shouldn't be doing this. What about all the talks we've had about getting it right, about how we gone be together for good. I told you I love you, but I guess that doesn't mean nothing from me. I guess you rather hear it from him, since he knows you better then I do. Are you that willing to throw it all away for<em><strong> </strong><span style="color: #cc0000;">ONE NIGHT</span></em>?! Well this is it, if you walk thru that door this time it won't be for chance. This time it will be for good.<br />
<br />
When will the last time be the last time?<br />
<br />
<em><strong><span style="color: #cc0000;">There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death</span></strong></em> (Proverbs 14:12)<br />

It hit me this morning while I was at chuuch, <em><strong><span style="color: #cc0000;">Promotion comes from God!</span></strong></em> the revelation was simple, you haven't earned enough credit with God for Him to see you as worthy for a promotion. Many people desire for God to expose us, to expand us, and to grow us. But we don't give Him <em><strong><span style="color: #cc0000;">'us'</span></strong></em> to work with.You can't expect for God to connect you with desired relationships, when your credibility with him is in despair. We want God to open doors for us, and elevate us, but at the same time God can not trust us with those things because our relationship with him is too inconsistent. Yuuup! God desires to promote you, Yuuup! God desires to give you the desires of your heart. Yuuup! God wants to show you new and exciting things. But you will not pimp God, or gimmick Him into doing for you, when you haven't given Him your time, attention, or RESOURCES! (money). Your promotion comes from God, when are you going to let Him stretch you? <span style="color: #cc0000;">Yeah stretching ain't always easy</span>, <span style="color: #cc0000;">yeah stretching hurts</span>, <span style="color: #cc0000;">yeah stretching takes you out of your comfort zone.</span> But you have to give God the chance to do what He wants with you, so you can see the positively abundant outcome from your lyfe.</div><div style="text-align: center;">This revelation was so clear when God spoke it to me. Man does not have any control over how and when God decides to bring elevation in your life. Now I don't have any bible verse to back this up, but I believe God does inspire me to write this. Alot of what I write is out of my own life experiences. Lately I have been spiritually agggravated, because when it comes to my relationship with God, my biggest flaw is inconsistency. And it has been that way since I have been saved. And I'm sure it's not just me that has this issue. But I understand if I am going to have a deeply intimate, and <span style="color: #cc0000;"><em>positively progressive</em></span> relationship with my Lord and Savior. Then I have to really press myself for that type of relationship. It's nobodies fault but my own that my relationship with God is no further then when the day I started walking my salvation out. It's nobody elses fault that I pursue a close relationship with God but then fall off 3 weeks later. It ain't my parents fault, it ain't my brothers fault, it ain't even the devil's fault. The blame is all on me. I talk the talk, but I don't walk the walk.</div><div style="text-align: center;">We talk about wanting a better life for oursleves, we talk about doing better for ourselves, we talk about going after the wealth, and abundance that God promised us. But those things aren't going to happen apart from God. <span style="color: #cc0000;">No matter how much money Jay-z or beyonce' may have</span>. No matter how much<span style="color: #cc0000;"> Gucci or Louis Vuitton </span>Kanye West may have. Those things are only a illusion. And when those things take president over God, you can be sure to lose them.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Life isn't suppose to be complicated, we do that ourselves. Our next door isn't suppose to be a mystery. God is not a mysterious God, He just works in mysterious ways. He wants you to know HIM, He wants you to see yourself as worthy of His time and attention. The way to getting your relationship with God back on track is by admitting and confessing to Him that you need Him everyday of your life. And you start to fervently pursue Him thru prayer, worship, and devotion. Start making God the aim or intent of all you do. And watch Him bring the exposure and growth you deserve to see. Start off every morning talking to God, it ain't gotta be deep, just talk to Him. He would very much appreciate the fact that you consider Him worthy of your time over <em><span style="color: #cc0000;">Twitter, itunes, or Facebook. When you take the first step, trust God to take the rest with you, and not for you.</span></em></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
