To grow we must face our deepest fears and put them to death at the cross.
The woman depicted in the Song of Solomon chapter 1 not only complained about her looks but her plight in life as well. Yet it was the maidens standing by that reminded her of how beautiful she truly was. They could see her more clearly than she could see herself.
-
Do others see you more positively than you see yourself?
-
Or do you allow the negative interactions of others to affect how you see yourself?
-
Activate the Power of your own destiny within you and shake free of negative thoughts and interactions. Allow the power of God's word to sanctify your imaginations
|
Whatever you are looking for God has the answer, so stop being moved by everything you see, find your answer in God's word.
|
No matter what we face, God works everything together for our good if we let him. As we make this declaration of faith we release the power of God in our behalf. Say out loud "The devil is defeated and everything is working together for my good now, in Jesus name.

Let the Holy Spirit unwrap your gift within, it might just surprise you what's inside. Your unique gift for the kingdom of God only you can supply it. Don't live trying to be a copy of someone else. Learn how to pinpoint what God has uniquely called you to do. Then do it with all your heart.

| God calls you black and lovely. He is ravished by you, he wants to remove the masks of hurt, unforgiveness, desperation, pride and fear. The real you is beautiful and she can't wait to shine through. God wants you to see yourself as he does. Learn to bask in the Sunshine of God's glory. And feel good simply about being you
Remember these things:
-
God made you the way you are for his purpose
-
You are full of beauty and delight
-
You are striking and your presence commands attention
-
You are here to glorify your creator
-
Consider it and honor and privilege to walk in your lovely beautiful black skin

Toxic Relationships
Many women and girls are involved in ungodly relationships simply because they think it is the best they can do and perhaps nothing better will ever come along. We don't trust God to do better in our lives, so we decide to take matters into our own hands. Thus we are unhappy and unfulfilled. Try this, say out loud "I Just Want To Feel Good!" As you continue to say those six little words you will begin to more clearly define what does not make you feel good in your own life. Get away from it, turn to God who is good all the time. By identifying what makes us feel bad, turning away from it becomes easier. This simple exercise can lead you to good things that make you feel good all the time.

Raising Boys:
3. Attend a bible believing church that has activities for children, or encourage your church to start some. Pray for your son, share God’s word with him, and teach him to cultivate a prayer life and time studying God’s word, start by studying with him until he is old enough to study on his own.
4. It’s okay to see his father’s face in him, remember this child is the best value his father could have ever given you, regardless.
