Good morning Blogland.
This week I have really been trying to hear from God. So I have been reading the Word, Listening to different sermons, Meditating on God's Word.
I was listening to Bishop Jakes, and he said something that I really had to take to heart "Stop trying to change someone's mind about you." It was a Word I really needed. You all have a WONDERFUL, Blessed and Favored weekend. Let Go and Let God.

About Me
- Newy
- Mother of 2, Child of God in DMV "They always ask me if I make it am I going to forget about them, but the question is, if I don't make it will they forget about me?" My spin : RealTalk When u are up everyone wants to hang on, but look for the ones that let you lean on when you are down. Remember...don't just look for me when I am up, support me when I'm down. ♥ In prosperity, your friends know you, in adversity, you know your friends. I asked God for strength, I got adversity. I asked God for wisdom, I was made a fool of. I asked for patience, I had a difficult relationship. I looked back, He gave me what I asked for. Adversity showed me I was stronger than I thought; being a fool opened my eyes to discernment making me wise; the difficult relationship showed me that patience is earned not given. Blessings come in many forms, not all of them recognizable.

Words are so piercing, aren't they? The smallest of statements can make you think. Changing the way people think about you is a big one for all of us, I think. Even those of us who try to argue differently. There is some part of us that wants that acceptance and we really don't need it. I had to learn that a while ago because I never wanted anyone to think negatively of me. When I realized that I'm a good person and that if they have those ill thoughts of me and I've done nothing to warrant that, then the problem is with THEM and not me. I let that go. It took a minute, but I did it and it seems you have too!
You have a good weekend also :-)
Doesn't TD Jakes look like a big Teddy Bear?!? Or is it just me?!?
