Blessed Is The Lord

Blessed are you, Lord, my God, who is King of the Universe. Grant Your peace unto me as I grant peace unto You through Your works. Draw near to me as I draw near to You. My peace I give unto You as You give Your peace unto me. For You are the God of happiness, love and mercy.

Blessed is my Savior, Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God, our Prince of Peace. My heart I give to Him as He, a divine figure, gave His life for me, a flawed sinner. He, who is without sin, extends His love without expecting perfection from us in return. Neither judgment nor condemnation are upon us unless we put them on ourselves. As our Redeemer, He encourages all of us to heed His promptings and commandments but rejoices as we improve ourselves through grace and mercy. As His follower, I vow to go with Him not to the ends of the earth, but to eternity, and throughout. His love fills my soul, as does His light that clears my path as I walk through the mists of darkness. My heart I give to Him. My soul I give to Him also. Rejoice in Him, for He is the Lord, our King!

Finding Positivity In Whatever We Find

As an adult facing harder times than a youth or a child could, how do I keep my spirits up when I'm faced with loneliness, depression or isolation stemming from anything? That is an excellent question because it takes so much to answer it or to uplift ourselves during our adult years. While being an adult offers much independence & wisdom, it also comes with much responsibility and darkness, and those can be more challenging than we imagine. While you were a kid, it was easy to dream of growing up because grown-ups have cell phones, drive cars, wear adult-sized clothes or makeup, or experience interesting things our bodies go through. But when you reach adulthood, you learn the hard way that it's not exactly what you imagined. While it grants some liberation, it doesn't come free of duties, obligations or challenges we never thought possible when we were kids. We have to pay bills, buy groceries, make even the toughest decisions we never wanted to. This is why I advise ...

She Held Him In Her Arms

During a time of trouble in Jerusalem, News had reached to Mary Who would become a mother of a special child. Though she had known of this child’s coming, She had not expected it to happen that day. Nevertheless, she braced herself for what was yet to come. When she saw her Son, she shed her tears of love. When He was placed in her arms, she cleaned Him up. To keep Him warm, she wrapped her Son up in clothes & blankets. After she did, she laid Him to rest. And then she planted a kiss on Him. When He first spoke, she rose with joy. When He first walked, she embraced Him. When He was hungry, she made him food And He would eat with joy. When He was thirsty, she brought him water And He would drink with satisfaction. Then it came time for Him to do His Father’s work. When He cried, she wiped His tears. Then she whispered in His ear, “You are my little prince always.” After she said that, He went about His Father’s work. ...

Forgiveness: A City of True Happiness

Image
Revenge is neither golden nor prosperous. It leads to nowhere except to the deepest depths of the darkness. The only places it leads you to are hate, sorrow, bitterness, contention and dread, all of which give nothing but pain. Forgiveness is a city of peace, renewal, joy and mercy, all of which provide true happiness. It is a landmark that stands out in the light to signal where you are so you can discover how far you've come in your journey to true healing. It never forgets or pardons the pain you've been through because of others or yourself. Rather, it takes in all of the broken pieces of your soul with compassion and care, and transforms them all into an improved molding of yourself that others need to see. Yourself included.
