I am obsessed with creating a new golden age of black aesthetics. That includes tv, film, fasion, books, art...etc.

Some of us weren’t taught humility. We were taught to disappear.

I’m learning the difference.

OH WAIT A MINUTE

“For when I am weak then I am strong” means that when you’re weak you have no one to rely on but God because you have no strength of your own but that makes you infinitely stronger than you would be if you did have your own strength because God is even more than we’ll ever need

I geeeeeet it :3

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

James 1:2-3 (via womanintheword)

I’m in need of some daily character warm ups, so:

everyone who reblogs this by–let’s say–July 31st will get a character based off their blog!

They’ll include basic bios and physical descriptions at the very least, and I will be doing at least one or two a day until they are all finished.  (And if I’m really digging them I may even give them a deeper backstory or *gasp* put them in a short story!!)

[killianmardon-deactivated201612]

Only ten days left to reblog this before I start writing these!  I’d love to create as many diverse characters as possible so feel free to pass this around!

Now, there are very few things that frighten me to the point of being inactive, especially when it comes to my dreams. But lately, I've been going back and forth with a decision that I KNEW God has been telling me to act on for years. Why do we do that? Fear. That's why. Fear of the unknown, fear of failure, fear of starting over, fear of being on my own... Well, last night the creator spoke to me and said "Why be afraid if I'm leading you?" I was like, that's a good question, G. If our movements are within the will of God, there is absolutely nothing to fear. That does not mean it won't be difficult or frightening at times, but the Love of God through Jesus Christ drives out all fear. It will be okay, take that leap of faith. He's waiting to catch you. If there is something that you've been praying about and you feel like you haven't gotten an answer, chances are He's already answered you and you're just afraid of the answer. My loves, God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of love and power and a sound mind. We can do this. ❤️ #thethriftmaven #mavenmanor via Facebook http://ift.tt/299fjU9
