When the time is right, it will be alright.

Today's scripture is brought to you by the Word of God.

🤗 It's today's scripture on my Bible app and it's also at my desk! It's a daily reminder that God's timing is far greater and more promising than our impatient, makeshift "blessings". I used to cringe when I was told, "Take your time." or "Your time will come." I cringed because I would always look at them and think, "Time? No, let's do this now!" Lol.

We sometimes rush through the day, looking forward to getting off of work. We rush through the week, living for the weekend. We rush through the year, looking forward to the new year! We will end up rushing through life, if we don't learn how to take our time and trust in God's timing. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in our hearts, yet none of us can fathom what He has done from beginning to end.

He is an eternal God, having no beginning and no end. Our life is but a vapor, it begins and it ends. So don't rush anything. Trust His plan for your life and the time that it takes for those things to come to pass. Praise Him even when you don't understand what's happening and learn to be content in waiting. Don't let society, your peers, or even 'mama nem" rush you to do or be something that THEY think you should do or be. Take your time and spend time with the One who took His time creating you. What He has for us will always exceed our minimal expectations.

A Bumpy Start

As I embark on my journey of a fresher face, I realize that it will come with some critics. My biggest one would have to be none other than myself. Every single time I wash my face, I see a contestant on America's Got Blemishes. See what I did there? Lol. Anyway, I really can't remember what my skin used to look like and I REFUSE to pull those pictures back out! I've started out with the basic water and towel regime which never fails when it comes to feeling less disgusting at the end of the day. But with make-up comes a new kind of "end of the day" dirt. The kind of dirt that keeps Palmolive, Tide, and Zest in business. Especially, when you can't wash your face until the very end of the day. My poor pores got about as much air as a resident of Bikini Bottom. As I continued to follow my gut regarding which face soaps to use, I never really remained consistent long enough to get real results. I had always been a microwave type of person(fast results) ...

Who made up make-up?

I started wearing make-up when I was about 12. Well, I played in my mom's foundation here and there when I was younger, but I never got to leave the house. Once I had gotten to junior high school, I had convinced my mom that I really need white, yes white, liner on my top lid. You know, to make my eyes "pop". I had seen her do it plenty of times and she looked so pretty to me. I was determined to get that same look. On top of all of that, boys called me ugly and any little bit would help. At least, I'd hoped. As time went on, I realized that white liner was no longer my friend due to the fact that I "look like I have chalk on my lashes". The jokes got pretty lame after a while. I guess I couldn't blame anyone for not being able to resist teasing me. When you combine candy store lip gloss with white eyeliner you get a recipe for disaster. So, I guess I had it coming. It was an easy fix, though. Once I was in high school, girls only required very littl...

Single, Saved, and well...you know.

"...more baby showers than weddings!"-Kevon Stage *Long sigh* Now, at first glance, this looks like a hot mess. At second glance, I look at it and agree that this topic needs to be discussed more in church. Especially, for those who are just starting out in their walk. For the most part, as singles, we know what we aren't supposed to be doing. And we SHOULDN'T be doing those things, especially if we call ourselves followers of Christ. Sex before marriage is n ot God's way. However, the desire for sex doesn't just vanish into thin air. Even when you don't put yourself in those situations, it seems like most things are sexually charged and right in your face these days. They made a cat food commercial sexual, for crying out loud! Anyway, the young lady may have the right motive and wrong method or vice versa. I'm not sure. Hopefully, she's sending out the right message. (I would have left the word horny out, but that's just me) ...

"Hey Relle Girl!"
