When obstacles arrive, please keep in mind the obvious facts: 1. Realize you're not the 1st person ever 2 go thru WHATEVER it is that you're faced with! Scripture simply says in Ecclesiastes 1:9 that, "What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun." So don't think you're alone and that this a new problem. Nooo! New to you, maybe, but not unfamiliar to the world, let alone the Lord! Same script, different cast! 2. This too shall pass! After everything you've been thru in your life and for every thing God has seen you thru, do you really think you cant get over this obstacle?! Oh ye of little faith! You haven't come this far to be left out now! If He did it b4, He'll do it again! With that being said. . . 3. Relax!! Like chill. . .for real! This is life! Situations will arise, in your life, but you gotta be smart about it! Lol. And yes. . .I just quoted an Usher song! HA! But seriously, trust the Lord and stop trying to understand it ALL thru your limited, finite thinking and reasoning!! And if you want understanding and clarity of your situation, I promise u. . .seeking out the Lord's perspective will bring so much peace and meaning! You just have to mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually let go and let God be God (over all things). But really! Enjoy the ride and know that God has a divine purpose for this issue! 4. Giving thanks and praise to the Most High always confuses the enemy! Chaos, confusion, doubt, fear, or whatever your issue is can NOT prosper if you're constantly in praise mode! How can you focus on your problem if your focus is on thanking, being grateful, and praising the Problem Solver?! Like 1 is gonna cancel out the other, but it's always YOUR (personal) decision on which one u choose to give your time and energy to! Soo. . . Quick recap: 1. This isn't a new problem and you're not the only one in life who is going or has gone thru it! FACT! 2. This too will go away after the Lord takes you thru whatever it is that He needs you to learn, receive, grow, and experience from this obstacle. He's in the driver seat and in control. You're just a passenger who is going along 4 the ride of life and learning 2 trust your Chauffeur! 3. So chill! Drop the anxiety and start trusting Christ while going thru! 4. Thank Him for and thru EVERYTHING! If it's happening in your life, then know it is happening for a reason! In the meantime, offering up blessings of praise and thanks will shift your focus from the issue to the Final Answer to all issues! Don't worry! You'll overcome! But it's gonna be more of a challenge to handle your situation if you don't keep in mind these obvious facts! Stay encouraged and keep on pushing! I love you! 💓✌

For the past nine months, Yvonne Libron has been taking up posts at street corners throughout the metro region, enthusiastically waving a handmade blue poster-board sign at passing traffic.

Shout out to Chris Dovi! Thank you for spreading the love!

What is LOVE?!

Let me tell y'all something: LOVE isn't just a 4 letter word. Its a constant action that cultivates purpose and life, molds broken hearts into scultped masterpieces, forgives unconditionally, nurtures effortlessly, strives for UNselfish gain, surpasses human logic, does what's right when surrounded by wrong, doesn't hide from devotion, presses thru unbearable circumstances, swallows hate, speaks out against injustice, moves in peace and humility, opens itself to transparency, vocal via the language of truth, and prospers in honesty. It is allergic to lies, deceit, and manipulation. LOVE understands that weaknesses create flaws so it constantly blankets it with mercy and unmatched kindness. It sympathizes and empathizes without a second thought. It is the key to unlocking the doors to stubborn hearts, penatrates to lost souls, and speaks for those who feel abandon, lonely, or rejected. It does not maliciously invoke pain, cause strife or chaos, or confuse itself with lust of the eyes, mind, or the flesh.   LOVE is beautiful, caring, sharing, and sweet. It's a smile for no reason. Its a hug because its raining on a Thursday. It sustains praise and worship just because of the very essense of what it is! It's an attitude of gratitude. It's a special, one of a kind certainity that despite what is going on around it, it WILL FOREVER be the catalyst for good! It does not worry, doubt, waiver, or become unsure of its power. It overcomes. It is victorious. It is prosperous. It is what it is because NOTHING is greater. It fights. It ignites. It excites. It's a vehicle of awesomeness that navigates any1 who believes in it to become more than what the human eye can see. Love is cosmic synergy that paints on the canvas of supernatural greatness. Love is the Supreme Identity in a unified Spirit, Truth, and Counselor. It does so by carefully and gently guiding (Counselor) us to the One realness (Truth) of who we are, why we exists, and who we come from (Spirit). One quick and simple way to recap ALL that was stated: God IS Love!!!
