You’re Real If You’re Doing For Others

When you’re doing for someone, you're real, but when you aren't, you're flaw. If you're grown, get your own. When you’ve got your own, no one can throw in your face what they did for you. 

Today’s Message

 People treat you exactly how they feel about you 🤞🏾..keep that in mind

I treat them accordingly, by paying them dust.

Today's Thought: Fiery Suffering

 

One thing believers can count on is suffering: They're going in, in the midst of, or on their way out of suffering. Suffering is unavoidable because we live in a fallen world. If it was up to me, I would wipe suffering off the map and everyone would be on Cloud 9 in life. Because none of us are God, we don't have that power so the best thing for believers to do is hold on in the midst of raging storms. Storms don't last forever, even though we think so sometimes.

No Credit For Doing Good

 I stand on this. If you're looking for clout, was your deed genuine? If the person never recognizes you, are you going to stop doing good for others just because you won't get praise? You shouldn't, but everyone's different. I would be lying if I said I didn't want praise for doing something good for someone, but as I've gotten older, I learned that some people will never shout you out for doing good for them, so move on.

The Family That Prays Together, Stays Together: Pt. 2

Thought Of The Day: A Family That Prays Together, Stays Together. In an ideal world, that would be true but because we live in a fallen world, that saying is false. You can have families that are rooted in prayer and a split still happen. You can't always work things out. Sometimes, a split is best for all involved. 

Leadership Reveals True Colors

 Sometimes, you're placed in leadership to reveal your true colors. Do you know how to handle authority? I believe that everyone should not be in power because they abuse their authority. Politicians are good examples because they make & pass laws that benefit themselves and certain members of society. If I ever rose to power, I would use my authority to better others’ lives. To me, that’s the mark of a good leader; they use their influence to improve other people’s lives.

Today’s Thought: Continual Suffering

I feel like preaching today: God will allow toxic people to continue hurting you until you get rid of them. That’s the only way some of us will dump toxicity from our lives. We must become so fed up with suffering that we get rid of it by any means necessary.
