My 8 year old next door neighbor asks me "what is your religion?" I thought about that for a second, and came out with "love."
Now.. don't misunderstand me, God is deep in my heart, and Christ is my savior, but to me its more than claiming your a Christian, and doing what's right for your self; to me it is LOVING. Loving every human, with every fault, loving the sinners, saints, straight people, gay people, every race, male female, JUST LOVE. To divide yourself from someone because they are different, is to think you are better than someone, and in no way shape nor form am I better than anyone!
Squeeze with love.
You know that feeling you get when your hands are in the air and you feel that sweet warm love from Christ hugging you so tight? That's how you should feel, EVERYDAY! Not everyone believes the same as me, which is okay I never expected them to, but I pray that the whole world will surrender. I see a lot of people who call themselves Christians, (which no doubt they probably have huge love for the Lord, not trying to step on toes) who bash gays, and shun other religions; and in my opinion is WRONG! If we all loved on each other they way Christ loves us; I think the pews would be full, and the holy spirit even fuller!!
I was blessed to grow up with people who love me like their is no tomorrow (literally) and to think their are kids out there who never experience love in their home; BREAKS MY HEART! Just because that kid at school is mean, and cusses a lot; who cares, love him. So what if that girl gossips and spreads rumors; show her what compassion and love is. I'm not saying doing wrong is okay, I'm just saying, maybe if we loved a little tighter these habits would become non existent. Some peoples mommas and daddy's, don't raise them through love, so they are angry, BRING IT THE LOVE PEACE AND JOY TO THEM!!! the more you do that, the more they will return that positive attitude to you, and others.
"1 John 4:7-8 - Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love." < (one of my favorites)
Religion is a foundation love.
Every religion is founded on love, believe that our not. Whether it's Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, etc. That's actually what it is, love. So why do we label it any differently? Why do people say Christ hates gays? Why do people label all Muslims as terrorist? Realize that we are all made to be one as whole, build each other, make new friends, and loved ones. Make your walk with Christ, a walk of love, and take a couple hands with ya! mwah.
" I WAS MADE TO LOVE; AND BE LOVED BY YOU "

putting YOU in the Lords hands.
Tonight as I'm reading in Jeremiah I find myself comparing my relationship with the Lord to a flower, your probably like oh, she's weird.... but seriously! A huge beautiful sunflower.
Plant yourself.
Jeremiah 17:7-8
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord And whose trust is the Lord. “For he will be like a tree planted by the water, That extends its roots by a stream And will not fear when the heat comes; But its leaves will be green, And it will not be anxious in a year of drought Nor cease to yield fruit."
As I was thinking about this scripture, I just kept hearing "plant your self, Hailey'"
Put your mind to that. Are you planted? Are you deep in the word? Are you pleasing the Lord? By planted I mean, is your life surrounded with the Lords love? Plant yourself in Godly ways! Plant yourself around Godly people! I wish this whole world had zero sin, no temptation. BUT that's not the case! We have to separate our self from the rest of the world, and (once again) plant ourselves in God.
After I was finished my little worship time, I turned on my phone and one of the first things I saw, was "Grow where you are planted." That's the Lords works, I didn't have to click on that page and see that, I think that was the Lord telling me, planting yourself is just step 1! Growing in Christ is so important to me, just falling deeper and deeper in his greatness. This is where I found myself comparing myself to a flower. Right now, I am a small new born flower, but my prayer is that one day I will grow into a huge, beautiful sunflower who's seeds blow to others! But think about this; flowers take nurturing if you want them to grow, you have to plant them in good soil, water them!
WE as children of God, have to put ourselves in good soil; not doing sinful things, not hanging around wrong doers, but doing what is right, and doing that with others who share Gods love with you! WE as children of God have to also water our love, trust, and faith in the Lord; Not listening to or participating in ungodly activity! but worshiping the Lord, and drowning in his word.
Trust more. Worry less.
How many of you could say you would put your biggest worry in Gods hands, and not worry about it at all? Not many. I cant! But what we don't realize is that if we have TRUE faith that God will provide, then GOD WILL PROVIDE! Trust that God has a plan, and if things are going great, it isn't over, and one day your faith will pay off, and the lord will laaavvvishhh you with greatness! eepp. I love the Lord. LET GO MY LOVES! Gods got ahold of you!!!!!
1 Peter 5:7
"Give all your worries to God, for he cares about you."
Plant your self. Grow. Trust.
Plant yourself.
Jeremiah 17:7-8
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord And whose trust is the Lord. “For he will be like a tree planted by the water, That extends its roots by a stream And will not fear when the heat comes; But its leaves will be green, And it will not be anxious in a year of drought Nor cease to yield fruit."

bro, do you even have faith?
sorry about my lame preface. Heyyoo! long time no see, well recently every time I have set down to write, and prayed for knowledge to share with you all, I'm blank! I'm not going to type a bunch of phony bull crap from MY mind, that's definitely not my purpose! So I've been patient with the Lord. But tonight, I had faith written so heavy alllll across my heart. So here ya go!
"Matthew 17:20; ""You don't have enough faith,' Jesus told them. "I tell you the truth, if you had the faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain 'Move from here to there,' and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.
These words will forever reign true. I mean obviously, friggin Jesus said it. But today, how many could honestly say they believe if they told a mountain "move" it would move? Eh, not many. Why? because, our faith is jacked. I have faith that Christ can restore souls, and do the unspeakable; cure the blind, allow the deaf to hear, bring the dead to life. But I've lived in this world so long, where most don't believe in miracles, and most believe their is such thing as "impossible." I believe that's why my faith is jacked, ha.
Although that verse has many more perspectives, it doesn't have to literally mean you're moving a mountain. Sometimes you think you can't, like you just flat out can't. I'm here to tell you, shut up, get that negativity out of here, YOU CAN! The father believes you can do anything!!! annn-ythhh-ing, wow! You call on God and your request will be answered, if your faith is truly there! I try to refer to this verse, every time my faith gets weak. Restore yourself, restore your faith!
Build an empire.
Your personal faith, is awesome, you need that to stay connected with the God! BUT. never get comfortable in your faith, you were set on this earth to share the word. If you're a child of God, you know how powerful it is, lets show others. As we go through our day, going to school, working, and encountering as many people as we do, how often do we involve our blessings, or miracles God has set before us? think about it! One of my biggest goals in life is to get as many people to heaven with me as I can! To get to heaven requires faith, love, peace, and good actions. FAITH! I think if we share our faith with others, we can build empires, enhance even the whole worlds faith! Building empires, requires constant actions that others would be persuaded to follow, am I right? So in saying that branch out, spread it! I LIVE IN THE HANDS OF THE FATHER, AND I AM FAR FROM ASHAMED, I BELIEVE HE CAN AND WILL DO ANYTHING I ASK, IF IT IS WORTHY!
Stay blessed. Build your faith!! xoxo

Your beautiful personal journey.
Where are the lions?
We all forget names, we forget doctors appointments, we forget phone numbers. We label those as mistakes, unless one day it becomes your continuous reality. I'm reading an autobiography, "changing my mind" written by a successful Christian man who was struck by brain damage 8 years ago. He speaks about how he's no longer a man thinking, not a thinker, but a new man who is learning, a learner. Using the phrase "where are the lions?" he says this, "Through these last 8 years I've wondered, where are the lions? I don't notice them attacking me like they haven't ate all day, I don't notice God making them obey and be stripped away from my damaged brain? Where are the lions."
We often think the same way, we think a bad situation must go away for us to learn more, and grow more. But that is so far from the truth, we keep wondering where the lions are, or when are they going away? When we should learn that our Maker wants us there. there. and that those lions are here, to jump at us and attempt to shove sin down our throats. God can take a bad situation out of your life in the snap of a finger, yes, but the sooner you realize those hungry lions are here to stay and make you stronger, the sooner you will grow into something that can over come the depths of sin, and fall into the depths of Gods love.
"2 Corinthians 4:18- So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen. For what is seen in temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
No longer a mission, a journey.
As humans we create goals, missions, planning to accomplish them. We accomplish our goal, celebrate in pride, and move on, right? Well since my spiritual body has grown, I've come to a conclusion, BALONEY. I've made it a mission to save as many souls as I can, and I realized that "mission" will NEVER end! I will continue in my faith, and push Gods anointing power until the day I go meet my father, and then the souls I have touched will touch others, and it will become a eternal journey, a journey full of passion and adoration! I just cant help but think that how you have impacted someone, is not over, you are not done. This is no longer a mission, but a journey.
"Psalms 121:8- The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever."
Your journey starts here.
Their is so many people who are hungry, hungry for love, attention, comfort, something greater! they may not even realize, that what they need is God. So this is for YOU, the person that is starving for compassion! It doesn't matter, how old, or how young, you are, you can start fresh!! you can feed off good fruit, and surround your self with those who have pure hearts. You are the child of the RISEN KING! You have the right to grasp hold of a life of holiness, and grace that is given to you, with no charge, except a return of love. How amazing!!!
"Psalms 119:105- Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."
Start an eternal journey in Christ right NOW!! It will change your heart for a more beautiful purpose.

unchanging truth
Prophet Isaiah
{ Wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight! Stop doing wrong learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the fatherless, plead the case of the window. 'Come now, lets reason together" says the Lord. Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. If you are obedient, you will eat from the best in the land; but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword. Isaiah 1:16-20 }
The people of Judah did not think they deserved forgiveness, and didn't think they needed it. They traded God for idols, so God sent prophets to bring the people back to him.
Isaiah being one of them, he warned the people that if they did not change their ways, God would punish them, and that's exactly what happened, They continued to ignore God, and eventually were carried off into captivity.
BUT God would never just end it right there. God punishes sin, which is only fair. But because he is passionate and merciful, he promises forgiveness and restoration. Isaiah not only saw the upcoming punishment, but he saw the day where the people of Judah would rejoice Gods word, and "reason together".
Scarred sin
Imagine this, you're wearing a new white shirt, and you spill your red snow cone all over it. NO matter how much you scrub, and wash that white shirt, it will never be completely clean, or white again. Sin is just like that red snow cone, it has left you with a permanent stain, that you can't get rid of. But God can. No matter how bad a situation is, God is always able to wash away your sin, and make you perfectly clean.
God sees you sinning, as he did the people of Judah, but he also envisions the day you rejoice in holy spirit, do it now, don't waste time, pay attention and give your life to our sweet holy God.

Clean spirit
Today God kept giving me multiple topics to write on, I couldn't choose one. So here is a big mash-up of his word, through me!! But the main question is, is your spirit dead? if so... I pray this word, speaks to you, and gives you a clean sense of mind, soul and spirit.
My passion is...
Running, drawing, painting, exploring new places. My point is not about me and my passions, don't exit just yet, this isn't my biography, I swear!! My point is, I haven't posted a blog in a while, no reason why. I've just not put my time into it, I've been doing the activities I enjoy. In the midst of all I've realized, worshiping Christ, reading his word, serving him, should not be an option, it should be your top priority, your highest passion. After all, we are obviously our Lords top priority.
Matthew 6:33 "But first seek the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all of these things will be added to you."
What does it mean to love Christ
This love I have for Christ, is far deeper than any love I could ever face. I cant say I do everything I should to serve, but I truly understand the importance in my heart of Christ. His love to me, is most similar to big ocean waves, coming in so big and dramatic, and breaking down so quick and swallowing you in so beautifully. God should surpass any individual or activity that ever enters your life. This love God has given us is so ginormous, I cant contain. When you claim the title that you have love for our lord and savior, what does that really mean? Well to me, it means to sacrifice the big things. To try to return even 1/3 of the love Christ has given us in this lifetime.
1 John 4:8 "Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love."
Gods not dead.
A non-believer once asked me, "how could God even be real?" How could God NOT be real is my question? I guess some people don't have the same mind set I do, but I know for a dang fact God delivers. I don't mean to step on any toes here, but this is my belief. I think most non believers, haven't come to God, they haven't heard the word, heard testimonies. If you're struggling, and you come to God full on faith, THAT is something that will change you, you'll feel it, you'll cry tears of joy, because you KNOW you're changed. You'll never be the same after you encounter the love of God.
(If you haven't seen the movie Gods not dead I strongly suggest you do.)
Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
God knows the importance
Honest truth, Sometimes I'm mad, because I know something isn't right, so I cant do it. I'm thinking, why, God? Why can't I do that? But even if I don't know God knows. I believe our fathers main goal is not to see you happy, I'm sure he would smile so huge, if he saw you happy for the right reasons, don't get me wrong!! But I think Gods main goal, is to see you walking the path right next to him, not to see strung out in sin and being happy. The fact the someone cares for you THAT much is something you should call out praise for daily.
John 14:6 "Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me."
"Brace your self, you will never be the same after you encounter the love of God."
Without God these are just words, meaningless words. God sees YOUR struggles, call upon him and he will deliver the biggest amount of love EVER!! Bless you all xoxo

This is a new season
I'm wrote this blog under the influence of the holy sprit. Beware of a lot of caps and exclamation points! Ok, but really, this is by far going to be my favorite blog, I know this because the lord stopped me in the middle of my harry potter movie and told me to write this..
Good company
In the past, I thought if I was doing wrong, with a group, I had to drop those certain few. That is not the case!! If you make that decision to live for Christ, you guide those that are close to you that same direction. Who are you to leave out someone on the greatest journey of your whole life?
I've be-friended someone recently, who has the strongest love for god, that I could ever imagine. We could talk forever about Christ, we take each others outlooks on certain things, we share bible verses. He lets me tell him the negative parts in my life, and he prays for them. And that's exactly when I realized, if you confirm strong in god, your friends might just hold on to that, and copy your actions. What my friend is doing in my life, is what I'm wanting to do in others lives. Keep the trend alive!!
A beautiful revolt
Before I began to include God in my decisions, I was doing terrible, my friends were doing terrible, well terrible in Gods path, we thought we were awesome. Now, just recently, almost everyone I communicate with IS TURNING TO GOD. I promise, this generation is a generation of dreams, wisdom, and the word of god!!! I'm so excited to see where all the beautiful people in my life will go. He took us all at once, and he took us hard. We are spreading this nation, into a godly nation. Us teenagers, we are small but we ARE powerful. I come into tears thinking about all these people just coming in as one. GOD IS HERE AND HE IS READY FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!!
1 timothy 4:12; Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
Isaiah 60:1 Rise up and shine for your light has come. The shining greatness of the lord has risen upon you.
God is not done
The Lord has only begun in me!! This crazy scattered life of mine, is in the hands of God, that makes me feel so great. I feel so special to have Christ in my life who loves uncontrollably, at all times. He has the greatest life for me, and I just cant see how he could do anymore, he is beautiful, and makes me whole.
If your feeling like, you're done, theirs nothing else you could possibly do with yourself, theirs no one there for you... well....
BULL CRAP.
Our father isn't done with you. I repeat, HE IS NOT DONE WITH YOU. Theirs a greater plan out there, and it isn't self pity, if you're feeling worthless, you call on god, and he will never deny you!!!!! Your faith determines you, people. We are made to be loud in our faith, roar up!! Its time.
If you don't think gods there.. you haven't came to him. and if you did, you didn't come with faith. He is there for you in your darkest times, and there to celebrate the beauty of a new life! I KNOW he is there, he has changed my life so incredibly, I cant believe the sin he's brought me from. I know he can do the same for you..
Be apart of a new revolution.
Good company
In the past, I thought if I was doing wrong, with a group, I had to drop those certain few. That is not the case!! If you make that decision to live for Christ, you guide those that are close to you that same direction. Who are you to leave out someone on the greatest journey of your whole life?
I've be-friended someone recently, who has the strongest love for god, that I could ever imagine. We could talk forever about Christ, we take each others outlooks on certain things, we share bible verses. He lets me tell him the negative parts in my life, and he prays for them. And that's exactly when I realized, if you confirm strong in god, your friends might just hold on to that, and copy your actions. What my friend is doing in my life, is what I'm wanting to do in others lives. Keep the trend alive!!
A beautiful revolt
Before I began to include God in my decisions, I was doing terrible, my friends were doing terrible, well terrible in Gods path, we thought we were awesome. Now, just recently, almost everyone I communicate with IS TURNING TO GOD. I promise, this generation is a generation of dreams, wisdom, and the word of god!!! I'm so excited to see where all the beautiful people in my life will go. He took us all at once, and he took us hard. We are spreading this nation, into a godly nation. Us teenagers, we are small but we ARE powerful. I come into tears thinking about all these people just coming in as one. GOD IS HERE AND HE IS READY FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!!
1 timothy 4:12; Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
Isaiah 60:1 Rise up and shine for your light has come. The shining greatness of the lord has risen upon you.
God is not done
The Lord has only begun in me!! This crazy scattered life of mine, is in the hands of God, that makes me feel so great. I feel so special to have Christ in my life who loves uncontrollably, at all times. He has the greatest life for me, and I just cant see how he could do anymore, he is beautiful, and makes me whole.
If your feeling like, you're done, theirs nothing else you could possibly do with yourself, theirs no one there for you... well....

Gods way, not your way
Satan lost.
Seems like every time I'm alone and I think to my self, I think of my rotten past, every negative situation. But oh man, then praying tonight about everything I'm thankful for, it hit me, I am redeemed. God has always had a bigger plan for me, he has a bigger plan than you could ever imagine, his plans for you far succeed any struggle your facing. Who I have been in the past is not who I am, I am completely set free of any sin that has ever held me back in the past, greatest feeling you will EVER feel. Betcha a million bucks.
About 6 months ago it really hit me. What am I doing? I definitely wasn't living the way I was supposed to. I had a constant struggle with the lord for the next 4 months. I was fighting an internal battle with myself. I didn't know what to do, when all along the lord had already won me but, I was blind, I couldn't see what the lord truly had for me. I knew it would take loosing a bunch, and I guess I wasn't willing enough. That Sunday morning, I went to church, as I do every Sunday, not expecting anything. We had an alter call, my pastor said "If you feel like your being held back I want you to come to the front, right now." and I promise you the lord pushed me out of comfortable little chair. My pastor laid his hands on me, along with some others, and prayed the sin straight from my body, and you can believe this, or you cant, but I felt that nasty sin flow from my chest straight out of my belly. My pastors wife told me "God kept saying mighty as I laid my hands on you. You are a leader. People look up to you, You can be a great leader, or you can be a sinful leader. You choose." That is day I will never forget, I stood in the front hands held high, and sang so loud for the first time ever!! Satan had lost.
My greatest hope for this new beautiful journey is that I can lead the spiritually blind to Christ. That is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I can promise you it would be for you too. To fully commit to Christ is something that will change your life for a more beautiful purpose!!!
Obedience
It can be tough to react Gods way every time in a tough situation. Like when your annoying sibling is being, well, your annoying sibling, and you have to be nice, or always responding with grace when people put you down for being a Christian. Sometimes you just want to go crazy! But take a lesson from Moses: You'll pay for it when you do things your way instead of Gods. Moses whole future changed when he decided to strike the rock in anger rather than speak to it as god instructed. The cost of your decisions might be a broken relationships, or a damaged reputation. Whatever it is, its not worth it. Once you've already disobeyed god, it will be so easy to do it again, steer clear of sin, be obedient.
It is done.
Once you have asked god for forgiveness, it is done. Every sin you have ever committed is washed away. I struggle with this, I hold on to the past, I know gods forgiven me, I just cant shake off the way I thought sinning was ok. Gods forgiven me, so I must forgive myself! I have put god in my heart, and looking back is not an option. The blood of Christ has washed every sin away. I AM REDEEMED DUDE!!!
Ephesians 1:7; In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace.
I believe as Christians we have to have faith, we can't doubt the prayer. Every seed you sew, WILL produce, seek time and harvest. You can't ever let go of your prayer, because god never, ever, ever says no to a promise.
I serve a cool god.
I serve a god who forgives, accepts, and loves. Not one thing would he shun you for, how friggin cool is that? We should breathe out thankfulness that he gives second chances, lord help us, we all need them!! I hope you all have a heart that beats so strongly for the lord, and if you don't I hope you make that marvelous decision!! God bless you alll

Women of realization
Realization. That could mean many things, but in this case, I'm talking about the realization that you are gods. You are worthy of all and continuous love, from the highest standards. God only wishes for all women to feel so confident at all times, and have only the most positive attention by the men in their life.
You are beautiful in your fathers eyes
I cant say I've never felt insecure, everyone does at some points. I used to look in the mirror some days and feel so high and mighty of myself, other days, I would look in the mirror and feel so ugly, I used to feel like I have to wear 10 lbs. of makeup to be even remotely pretty, and I craved attention like no other, I felt like I had to look my best at all times. But recently I've realized that couldn't be further from truth, God sees you as a master piece. Your actions and your words will make you so much more beautiful than your makeup and the clothes you wear. I've chosen to see the beauty of myself through my gods eyes, rather than the people of this earth.
1 peter 3;3-4 : Your beauty should not come from the outward adornment , such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry, and fine clothes. Instead it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth of gods sight.
Be modest
Ill be honest, I've had struggles in the past trying to be "hot for boys". But I've come to realization that a boy who thinks your only attractive for wearing toddler sized clothing, is not the boy you want in your life. being modest also means having a modest vocabulary, the words you speak are the words everyone hears, and everything you say, will spread, also most important (god hears you).
YOU can lead the way
Girls usually have someone they wish they had the characteristics of, they look up to them, because they are bold, and they stand out, you listen to what they say. I think, all women can be bold, all women can come to show the way of Christ, and also teach other women to do the same. You can be a negative light and promote sin or shine a positive light and promote the word of god.
You are good enough
No matter your weight, height, color, hair YOU are loved and gorgeous in the lords eyes, who else really matters though right? You are good enough, to wear that dress that's a little weird but you love it. You are good enough for the lord, he knows every single thing about you, and loves you, never change who you are!!!
Know you are beautiful
laaaadddiess, Have god in your heart, and your confidence will blossom like spring flowers. YOU are beautiful, god made everything on your body, in a way he thinks is perfect, remember this in all your days, and god will give the sweetest powers to change lives.

dont be lukewarm.
okay, okay. I know what your thinking, lukewarm? Why would you post a blog on temperature? But no. I'm talking about our love for Christ, its kind of crazy actually. I read a verse earlier this morning and it filled my whole body with spirit.
("I know your works; you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were one or the other! So you because you are lukewarm -neither hot nor cold- I am about to spit you out of my mouth." Revelation 3:15-16)
I had to question this, well not really question it, but put my perspective on it. We are all beautiful servants of god, but I also believe it takes some, a hard while to figure out how real and special our lord Jesus Christ is. God would you rather hate him and be totally against him, then pretend you love him, but knowingly sin behind his back, Actually, sin right in his face, god is omniscient.
oh, you know god sees you right?
Yes. you can go to church Sunday, being totally on fire for god. That is splendid, but the moment you walk out of those church doors, you should have that same spirit in your heart. I see people from my school, that have the mouth of sailor, but their bio states their love for Christ. That's what really breaks gods heart. Your actions should be just as if God were watching you 24/7.
Change
Change is a very important thing. I'm not saying you cant go from being lukewarm, to on fire for god. Because that is a beautiful thing, to change your dirty clothes of sin, in to fresh (lilac smelling) beautiful armor of god. I can most definitely tell you I have changed my heart for god, and I'm telling you change is awesome, and with gods timing, its NEVER to late to be on fire for god.
("If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" 1 John 1:9)
just do it. take Your next step in Christ, be cool!!!

Positivity
I'm not going to post this blog saying you should be smiles and cheers all the time because if I was that would make me a hypocrite. Can I say I've never jumped at someone, or said something I shouldn't have on a rough day? no. Actually, I can have a tendency to be grouchy sometimes, (try me, wake me up in the morning.)
All seriousness. What should we strive for? Positivity. What does that mean? Being happy and cheery all the time? No, but their is two ways to look at things; things will get better, or how could things get any worse. I believe as a Christian God challenges are strength and sets obstacles in our path only to build us. We should take an outlook on bad situations and think; “this is building me up to be a better woman or man God, how do I react?” Yes I know it's very hard to think that way when you feel like everything is caving in on you at once, but the way we react in times of chaos will only show our true self. Positivity is definitely a choice, and we should choose wisely.
No. Don't say that.
Gossip is a big no no in my book. breaking down people, to make only your self feel better is what it is. Living in the world we do today, we will find Debby downers, gossiping teenage girls, negative people, its just inevitable.
("A man who lacks judgment desires his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds his tongue. A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trust worthy man keeps a secret." Proverbs 11:12-13)
To make your life more positive, you have to block gossip out. Everyone has gossiped before, we obviously aren't perfect, but we should take the greed out of hearts to think, how would I feel if someone was talking about how ugly my outfit was or commenting on the way my body looks. Which, all gossip is, is sin. We have to put our mind before our words.
Be in a state of positivity
Remember, you are great, and beautiful in the lords eyes. Who else matters right? Come out of your comfort zone, meet new people, try new things. Positivity is contagious, it makes others around you happy. I believe in myself, because my maker believes in me, and me believing in my self only makes me confident. Never be satisfied with anything unordinary BE CONFIDENT AND LIVE IN A POSITIVE STATE MY LOVES!!
