I was speaking with the gentlemen today about life and he reminded me of why we're here and our purpose so I have to share these words of wisdom with you.

He said we all are here to share our gifts with one another to give hope and to grow within. He said we're in a world that is really messy but we have to stay strong for each other so that we can get through trials and tribulations and gain peace through it all.  We all go through challenges but we need support. 

We had a really good conversation and when we hear people talk about things that relate to what we're saying that make sense, it sort of reconfirms our belief and the importance of wisdom and listening to one another.

The most important part of that conversation that made me think more is supporting each other because sometimes we can be strong and think we can take care of things but sometimes we are weak and we get tired. it's very important to observe our surrounding and recognize when we can give hope and help others as well as humble ourselves for help as well.  I'm a very strong person but I get tired sometimes and it's always good to have someone to talk to when we're going through something.

Let's continue to listen, continue to give hope and continue to strive towards sharing our gifts and growing within.

Amen and Thank You Lord.

Sometimes on our journey, it's the toughest times that bring us to great places in our lives or should I say give us great blessings.

I say that because when we go through things, there's so much that we learn from those situations or experiences.  We get closer to God, we learn to appreciate things more, we gain wisdom and understanding and it allows us to take the time to think about what we're dealing with at that time and on and on and on.

We have to remember that it's not about what we have or where we've been but more about what we do in challenging situations and how we overcome obstacles that we face in life.

All I'm saying is when the trials come, don't get bothered but instead stand up with your head held high and give God some praises because He's working in your life.

​Amen and Amen.

The most joyful thing about life is to know that we can depend on God. I think a lot of times we try and do everything ourselves and sometimes we get burnt out or think we can control everything but in reality God is the one in control. This world is His house and we're living here for a limited time.  Let's not be sad but be glad and not get stressed about things.

We shouldn't take life for granted and we should always value each day.  When we depend on God, it takes stress away and we're able to begin again through all things and know that God will never leave us like He said. We have to trust that, have faith and pick up the cross and walk with Him.

That's real talk because we all are unique and have something to give to the world. Let's not look down on ourselves or others and work together with confidence to serve and live the mission so we can be at peace and able to give hope to all of God's children.

Love you all and thank You Lord.

The most precious thing that we can do on our journey is to love our neighbor because when we love we get closer to God, we're preparing ourselves for heaven, we have joy in our hearts, we take away the stress in our lives and we gain peace and happiness.

As I said in previous wisdoms, it's really not about us but about the mission set by God.  To go out and be examples and disciples by allowing our light to shine.  

When we don't love, we begin to allow anger and frustration to enter our hearts and when we don't control that, it turns to hate and it really puts a pause on our lives and doesn't guide us on the right path to make it to heaven.

It's really not worth the energy to not love because the world is full of mess and when we don't allow God in our lives, we become nothing. God is the one who holds us together and helps us to be at peace. (Remember God is love)

If you're dealing with something or somebody, don't let that enter your soul.  Learn how to heal from things and communicate things out even if we  have to be the better person by sacrificing our feelings to regain a relationship and give hope.  When we love, even if the other person doesn't want to reconcile, he or she received the light and that's all that God asks us to do. 

Think about that and choose what's best for you so you can stay connected to the vine.

Amen and Thank You Lord.

Our lives get so busy sometimes but through it all, we have to always remember that God is with us and He's working in our lives. Let go and Let God.

This life is short and we don't know what tomorrow may bring so our job is to make a choice to  have joy through whatever we have on our plate  and love and forgive our neighbor.

Love and forgiveness are two powerful virtues.  God is love so our job is to allow others to witness that love and forgiveness is not just for the person that we're forgiving but for us as well.  Forgiveness and love teach  humility, faith and sacrifice.  That will take you places and guide you on the right path for  happiness.

Think about this and know that whatever you encounter in your life, God is with you and through love and forgiveness, you will always be on top and feel at peace.
