Kevin Samuels Demise

Controversial relationship guru Kevin Samuels passed due to cardiac arrest (heart attack). I didn’t follow him faithfully like many people, but he must have kept it too real for some women to celebrate his death. He told the truth about men & women, saying how both sexes need to tighten up. Just because the messenger dies, their messages will live on.

Imagine getting on the internet learning and seeing people cheering about the death of your brother, Step Dad, Uncle, and son.

And THEIR excuses are bad faith arguments and "he was offensive." 

You're disgusting. So many of you have parents, spouses, siblings and cousins that I find disrespectful. If they suddenly passed I wouldn't cheer. I would wish you peace during your grieving process. And keep my extra thoughts to myself. Hell, as I type this I'm thinking about one of y'all people who is very offensive. But I don't wish death on them.

Th'fuck wrong witchu?

My thoughts exactly. It’s lowdown to rejoice over someone’s demise. KS was someone’s son, father, uncle, whoever, etc. I didn’t follow him like some of you, but he made sense in much of what he said. He was quick to tell men & women to tighten up. Even if he’s gone, he lives on through his messages.

Throwback Thursday: The Family That Prays

The Family That Prays Together, Stays Together applies only if the family is committed to having each other's back. If each person is doing their thing, there is no way that family will stay together. 

Watered Down Ministry

Ministry has become so watered down that ministers are preaching to fill seats instead of preaching the truth according to God's Word. 

Pick Yourself (Repost)

I’m sure I’ve told this story before but it’s worth retelling.

When I was about 8 I was upset because my friend had a sleepover and her mom limited the friends who could come and I wasn’t one of the ones picked.

I was as devastated as any 8 year old is knowing that all her friends are together and I couldn’t be there too.

I bawled all the way home and told my mama what happened. 

This is the advice my grandmother gave my 8 year old self:

“Shun, I’m sorry they didn’t pick you. But this won’t be the last time that you aren’t picked so you better learn to pick yourself.”

At that young age she started to teach me that I had to pick myself even when others didn’t. I had to learn to enjoy my own company because I wouldn’t be always be included. And it’s not always because they don’t like you, they just didn’t pick you this go around so always pick yourself.

Because of that wise teaching, I’ve learned to love my own company and always pick myself.

So whether you pick me or not, I’m always picking me. You better pick yourself too.

Good story. You won’t be picked all the time, so folks need to learn how to be ok with not being chosen. I know rejection hurts, but once you get used to not being chosen, I think people can learn to appreciate their own company. For me, I will always…always choose me over anyone else all the time. Sorry, not sorry.🤷🏾‍♂️

Paying For It

There's no such thing as getting something FREE. If you're not paying with money, you're paying with time, energy and attention. 

People Are Not Who They Say They Are

Excerpt from Joel Osteen’s Rule Your Day:

“God sees what we can’t see. He knows what we don’t, so wouldn’t it make sense to go to Him? People aren’t who they say they are. They show you the side they want you to see, but God sees the big picture. Don’t get caught up in the physical appearance because you may be getting involved with the devil.”

This!💯💪🏾People could save themselves a lot of trouble if they practiced discernment. I’m getting better in discernment that the slightest discomfort, I’m gone. ✌🏾
