The virtue of Patience….blessed is she

Hey Loves,

“And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.” Luke 1:45

As I sat in devotion this morning I chose to focus on this particular scripture that I had received from a friend. I found it fitting as everyone seems to be living rather spontaneously. We live in a society which makes everything available at our fingertips so we have lost the virtue of patience. The few of us whom still enjoy shopping away from our computers, When we walk into a store we don’t expect to encounter a line or have someone wait on us. We are microwaving most of our experiences and as a result the relationships we form are in quantity however not of high quality.

We often need to stop and think do we need 5000 friends on social media or do we need friends whom we actually know and can relate to? Friends whom are supportive of us should be the only ones we need in our circles. It is good to have a global connection and relationships with others but it’s even greater when we have a personal relationship with God. The word of God promises to bless us and pour into us, God gave his only begotten son for us. Yet we often wonder why we experience the struggles that we do and think all is against us. As believers we ought to encourage and nourish our faith so that we can hear the voice of God. Know that while we are being impatient God is working diligently for us, it may not be when we expect things to happen for us but in the time that God deems it right for us. Think about it without a test we would have no testimony and without being a victim we would not be a victor. God loves victories and that’s why we encounter struggles so that by overcoming them we are able to share our victories and make a believer of the non-believer.

Giving up What you’ve Got, to get what you Want…..

Hey Loves
I have become an Occasional Blogger!!! without planning it became totally unplanned and I’m not happy about it however I just might change up my style to hopefully be able to blog more often, get some Me time and share my knowledge and expertise with my followers as well as attract new followers. So as we all know the weather is changing so now I have to add hose/leggings to my outfits yet I will still rock my skirt and dresses.

As I delve deeper into my studies, I am totally amazed at the friends that have walked away as my time lessened, the poor relationships that had to be dissolutioned, at my love of learning, the contributions I have made and the sacrifices I’m willing to continuously make. Each day with every paper I write it seems more rigorous yet I persevere knowing that I am a step closer than I was a few hours before to achieving the highest level of academic achievement. I had a self-defining moment this week and I summed it up as sometimes you have to give up what you’ve got, to get what you want…. Therefore being sleep deprived and constant fatigue is a part of my journey to being a philosopher and moving into the millionaire club and I’m not giving up despite the rigor, weight gain, sleep deprivation, fatigue, loss of friends, broken promises, and countless other activities. I would rather give up every material thing that I own for the opportunity to achieve my goals.

So when I ran out to church a few Sundays ago I reached for an outfit that I had been longing to wear, 2 gold fashion jewelry necklaces a choker and a long necklace to recreate an ’80s hip hop look, the denim top is a repeater however this time its incorporated with a black mullet pleated skirt, a bold gold elephant belt and a simple pumps, as it has gotten cooler just add a pair of leggings or hose for warmth and you can achieve the same look.

As we all know financial freedom and good mental health is equal to a lifetime of wealth.

Stay tuned
