I want to encourage you all to surround yourself by positive influences. Your surroundings and the people you surround yourself with effect your attitude and overall outlook of your day. Be mindful of what you let your soul to be fed, whether it be the music you listen to, the shows you watch, the people you are around. Feed yourself with things that are positive and uplifting. Surround yourself by people who encourage you and are positive. I feel like there's so much hurt going on and people's feelings are getting hurt and some things need to change. It starts with what and who you let into your life. I challenge you guys to start taking initiative in changing your spheres of influences.

Good is good, amen?

I woke up this morning (earlier than usual) actually wanting to spend time with God before school. I'm just really overwhelmed with God's presence right now and I'm feeling so blessed, highly favored, and in a good mood. :) I have quite a week ahead of me but God has given me a peace of mind that he is my strength and that I can cast all my anxiety on him because he cares for us (1 Peter 5:7)!

It's amazing how just a couple minutes with God can turn your day around and even effect the outcome of your whole day ahead of you.

Have some great Jesus time today, girls.

PS: Please pray for me. I don't know if I'm catching a cold or if I have allergies, but I keep sneezing and I feel congested. I don't normally have allergies so I'm thinking it's a cold so pray for my healing please? Thank you <3

So. I’m kind of in a life or death situation right now (not really).. but I am really stressed out. I checked my current grades at the moment and I have straight C’s… and I think two of them are C-’s. I don’t really know how I feel about it. I know that at my school, it’s...

[therealcherbear-blog]

Thanks for your opinion Ashley. and lol at the last part. Thanks for liking my work. I wish my teachers felt the same way too. I'm sure they like it but they can't give me a good grade because it doesn't meet the industry's standards. Getting good grades means that I'm ready to get hired by professionals, and I'm just not ready yet..

[therealcherbear-blog]

BLARGH.

So. I'm kind of in a life or death situation right now (not really).. but I am really stressed out. I checked my current grades at the moment and I have straight C's... and I think two of them are C-'s. I don't really know how I feel about it. I know that at my school, it's normal and even good for first year students to get C's but I just feel really crunchy about it. I feel like even though I put so much work and effort, I'm still not putting enough and it's reflecting in my grades. I'm paying so much to go here and I feel like I'm wasting my money. I am just ranting now.  Theres this one class that is seriously killing me, and it's my writing class. My teacher gives us so much work and I've missed that class so many times because I overslept trying to finish work for my other classes. He said if I miss class again I'm going to get dropped/failed. And now I'm in a predicament and I feel like I have two choices.

1. Forfeit one of my grades (basically fail it and take it again) so that I can get good grades in my other, more important classes.

2. Stay in that class, and probably get a C- or D. And have my other classes suffer as well.

I don't know. Ahhhhh. I need better time management.

Three Things I Want to be Remembered For:

A good daughter, sister, spiritual sister, wife, and mom. I want to make my parents and brothers proud of me by graduating from college. My brothers never got to go to college because they started their families early so they, along with my parents, and my aunt, do anything they can to help support me financially to get through school. I want them to know that they're investment is worth it. I also want to be there for my brothers and sisters in Christ - to encourage, support, and love the people God has placed in my life. I also want to be a good spiritual role model to my future family.

A passionate partner in ministry. I want to be known for always being obedient to God's calling in my life. He's placed me in a quite a few ministries already. It can be tiring, but I wouldn't give up what I do for anything. I want to be known for having the heart of a servant and for using my resources to advance God's kingdom.

An innovate designer. I want to learn as much as I can here at AAU so I can become a great designer. I want to design for the future of our planet... being eco friendly, natural, organic, and at the same time design beautiful spaces that people will want to live, work, heal, and worship in. I believe that everything that goes into designing buildings shapes our emotions and behaviors and can effect how we feel inside of buildings. I hope someday the church will hire me as a designer so I can design a place that people will feel confident in calling their home church. ;)

Your turn! It doesn't have to be as long as mine was (I just love to type/write and I'm avoiding my homework) but I do want answers from all of you. Have fun!

What are 3 things you want to be remembered for?

What motivates you to achieve your God given dreams and visions? What kind of legend or impression do you want to leave when you leave this earth?

I'm just curious. I want to know more about what inspires you and what you aspire to be. 

Reblog with your response. I'll gladly share with you my response after I post this. :)

She never comforts me when something is wrong. She just calls me stupid and yells at me. Demi tried teaching me how to drive today and I hit my brothers car and hit a pole and made a huge crack/dent in his bumper. My brother wasn’t as mad, but my mom started yelling calling me mean names. Demi...

Ashley,

Your mom loves you! Don't ever doubt that. There's no such thing as perfect parents, but they try their best. I know sometimes there are things that our parents say or do that may be questionable. However, I don't doubt that your mom is doing her best to be a good mom for you. Like I said, we don't have perfect parents but we have a perfect Father. He is our Abba Father, our "daddy". Abba is Aramaic and translates into papa or daddy. He wants to be your perfect parent, your daddy, who loves you in every perfect way. Find comfort in that. :)

[therealpatricia]

the water was kinda diry, but that means they would have to buy me more! haha, i would have done it seriously. manang christian looked pretty serious, but i guess nobaody had money. i don’t blame them. but yeah. jumping in the pool is worth 5 pairs of nikes, or a whole outfit including one pair!...

[therealcherbear-blog]

I'm praying for you Patricia, your healing is complete. Receive it!

We should have our bake sale soon.. so that we can raise money for your iTouch or shopping and Ashbear's cheer outfit.

[therealpatricia]

there’s so much to be smiling about, and i feel this atmosphere that feels so dark and empty when i read your posts… i also would like a chance to speak with every single one of you, one on one, either on here, or in person tommarow. don’t be afraid to open up.

*ugh* this has been botherin me for…

[therealmicahca-blog]

If you don’t mind, I have some clothes and shoes that I can’t fit into anymore, would you like to have them? I really would take you shopping and the other girls as well, but I don’t have that much money. In the future, when I establish my non-profit organization and (when Diana becomes a multi-billion dollar architect) ^____^, we’d take all of you shopping! For reals. 

[therealcherbear-blog]

Yeah, I was cleaning my room last night and I was thinking about what you wrote about and I was thinking of giving you some clothes. I just bought this dress but before I wore it I washed it and it shrunk so now it's too tight. I think it will look cute on you! But anywho, I'll sift through my clothes and see what's somewhat in style still and what looks like will fit you. (Mind you, I'm a little bigger than you! lol)

And yes, when I become a super successful designer we will take you guys shopping. I promise. No matter how far down the road that may be lol.

Hey Patricia,

I'm really sorry about your family's situation. in one way or another, I think all of us are feeling the pain from this horrible economy. I just want to remind you of how blessed you are. You have a warm bed to sleep in at night, clothes to wear, food to eat, and all that jazz. I know, that is so generic of me to say, but when you really think about it you are blessed! There are so many people who would give anything to have your Nikes (I think they look cool btw). God sees your family's faith and trust in him and he's always been faithful to you. Don't forget that! I know how you feel though. Growing up and even now, I still don't have as much as other people do...  I know what you mean about trying to not wear the same thing all the time.. and that is something I worry about too. Sometimes, okay to be honest a lot of the time, I get so frustrated when i see people with new things all the time and when they get things that I want but can't have because I don't have money. BUT! I just remember that God is my provider. He, alone, is MORE THAN ENOUGH and he is always faithful. Just think about the times when you were in a situation (dealing with money) where it seemed impossible and God did the impossible. What he was able to do then, he will be able to do in the future.

Another prayer request:

My dad came home early from work today.. because he got fired from his job. I’m trying my best to comfort him but he keeps saying that he let me down. It breaks my heart because I never saw him this sad. The last time he got fired, he spent his free time talking to God that’s when he gave his life to Christ. I honestly feel that this is just another break from God for my dad to seek Him again. But please, you guys. I can hear my dad crying from downstairs..

[therealcherbear-blog]

:'(

I'm praying for your dad and your family. God is your comfort and peace. He will always be your family's provider. Remember we talked about "dips" last summer? I think this is a divine dip and it's a chance for God to intervene. I'm prophesying over your dad and your family. I'm declaring breakthroughs in certain parts of your family's lives that may be lacking God. I'm declaring that this is a season where God will reveal himself to your dad in a SUPERNATURAL way, where God's plan for your dad will begin to unravel. In Jesus name!
