Hey guys I need your help, I really hoped it wouldn't come down to this but I have literally tried everything to find a solution. I was able to sell a few things now I need 700$ to pay the rest of the rent. I I have not been working for the last few months and have gotten a job now and I will be starting in a week. I tried talking to my landlord and letting her know but she doesn't care. If you guys could help out by making a donation I would truly appreciate it and if you're not able to make a donation if you could share this post and repost that will mean a lot to me. I just don't know what to do anymore. Thank you

Proud to be black

Proud to be black. An honour to have been blessed with such melanin. Chocolate, coffee beans, caramel. Such a wide variety of shades. The thing is being black isn’t always easy. I think a lot of us can testify to that. I grew up in a time period where being black was basically a sin. As I grow older I look around me, I look how far my people have gotten. The cultural, the creativity, the food, the music, the dances. I inhale, exhale and then I embrace it all. Such beautiful shades, such exotic human beings. I say I’m proud to be black because 14 years ago that’s something I would of never said. Even though racism and inequality still exist I refuse to let this world dictate my self-worth. Embrace your skin colour.

Loneliness.

An omnipresent that I am beginning to encounter way too often.

Loneliness.

It consumes your very thoughts. It takes possession of your Identity. It's like a microscopic force that makes you feel detached from rest of the world.

Loneliness.

Have you ever felt so alone? So isolated that even when you were in a room full of familiar faces they all seemed to be unfamiliar.

Loneliness.

Maybe those faces in that room weren’t unfamiliar after all. Perhaps YOU have become unrecognizable to yourself. Has this thought ever crossed your mind? It could be that God was detaching you from all these people and detaching you from what you’re comfortable with so that you could fully attach to him.

Some of you have reached a level of solitude so deep that you have to turn to God. He has a calling for you. He has a great calling on your life. Some of you guys need to stop covering that battle against seclusion with a false euphoria. Stop plugging into bad relationships, drugs, alcohol, women, and men. Stop turning to things that will fill you up temporarily. Temporary & quick fixes always have a side effect. It's all an illusion. Have you ever thought? Just maybe… Maybe the reason why I am experiencing this time of loneliness is because God wants all of my attention. He wants me to unconditionally rely on him. Listen if you’re going through a season where you have all these people around you who care for you but at the end of the day you still feel so alone. You feel as if no one understands you. It's time for you to rely on the Lord. The Lord wants all of you. He wants all of your attention. He has a plan for you. You have so many gifts and talents that will bring honour to his name. It's time for you to awaken your spirit men. God is with you and he will fill you up. He will bring all the right people in your life. God knows you from the inside out. He knows you’re lonely. He also knows that only he can fill that void up. Once you start living in fullness and once you start depending on God, you won't have to feel alone the same way you would if you depend on friends, family etc. What are you filing that hole with? God fills us up. God also fills up the loneliness.

Dear friend, I know that loneliness is killing you, it's consuming your thoughts and emotions but its time you turn to God completely. It's time you let him take over. If you haven't experienced loneliness yet it's time for you to detach yourself from all the things you`re comfortable with. You need to get to that point because once you detach yourself from the people in your life you will attach yourself to The Lord and all that he has in store for you. That way you will learn to depend on God and every time you feel lonely you will turn to God. Loneliness... I guess you’re not so bad after all.

Isaiah 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Ever feel like God has forgotten about you?

Sometimes we go through times and seasons where we don`t hear from God. You`ve been praying every night and spending time with him but each day you seem to ask yourself, Lord have you forgotten about me?

Dear reader,

Whatever you have been praying for God has not forgotten about you. The Lord is watching over you. He is listening to your very cries and wiping of your tears and he says my children don`t worry. God works on perfect timing and he is VERY patient. Stop trying to force things and don`t get angry when you don’t hear from him yet. To whoever is reading this, this is a sign that things will start to make sense soon. God has not forgotten about you and he never will. Just because you don`t see fruit right now does not mean you should give up on the promises the Lord has made to you. He has planted a seed, and just like on earth it takes time and patience before you start to see the seed become a plant. Time is coming where you will harvest but continue turning to the lord in prayer so that he can water and harvest the seed he has planted. The Lord always comes through.
