Morning Readers;
Everyone has their own everyday issues. Everything isn't going to be peaches and cream. To whom much is given much is required. If we feel like too much is on us or we have too much to deal with; then guess what God feels that you can handle it. Now thats something to think about. No matter how much we encounter in this life or all at the same time, God believes we are strong enough to endure. That alone should give us strength to tackle it. In John 16:33 it says; "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." God has faith in us, but do we have faith in Him?
Be Blessed!!!

Who do you love..Are you sure?
Afternoon Readers;
I hope you guys are having a blessed day. For some reason I am feeling rejuvenated today..lol Anyway to the point. For the bible says in Mark 19: 29-31, "And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these."
Alright fam lets think about this for a minute. God requires that we "Love Our Neighbors." Neighbor meaning every body/person. God knew how difficult this would be, because some people make it easier to hate them than to love them. Hence the reason for it being at the top of the list..lol No matter how we are effected by their reactions, their ways of thinking, or their actions we must love them regardless. God loves us regardless of our flaws and sins and we say we want to be more like Him. Lets start with how we treat each other. Matthew 24:12 says; "And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Don't let your love wax cold. Love each other just as Christ loves YOU.
Be blessed people of God!

Vacations
Morning Readers;
The Mr. and I took a much needed vacation to Cabo last week. It was beautiful!!! I had the best time. I was too geeked before we went. Don't know if it was because I had been dreaming of vacationing to Cabo since 08' or because I (we) needed a vacay. Everyone was so nice and catered to my every need. I guess I should accept assistance from others and get over myself. But its easier said than done. :-) Especially for me. I was always the one everyone else depended on. Now roles have been reversed; just for now. I am waiting on God to perform a miracle healing in my life. Guess what people IT'S COMING SOONER THAN I THINK!!!!! Just got to be patient.

What's Happening to me?
Afternoon Readers,
Yesterday I was sitting on the side of the bed when I experienced a strange encounter. I wasn't afraid or anything but what I am trying to figure out is, am I thinking these things myself; are these my thoughts? I guess the best option for me to find the answer is to consult God.
It's funny how you can feel you have done something to displease someone important to you. In actuality, its the opposite. The only way for you to find out, is to ask them. Again, I have been confronted with other's situations that I prefer not to be involved. What is it about me, that makes people feel comfortable with dropping their concerns on me? I understand everyone needs someone to talk to or to listen. I'm having a hard time just listening. I keep saying thats what I'm going to do, but end up giving my opinion anyway. When I do give my opinion, people tend to take what I say as bond. "Oh Candice said it, so that makes it right." Not true! Well atleast not all the time...lol I've noticed this is a place that I don't want to be in, but if God has me in these situations for a lesson to be learned, then its time for me to woman up and deal. Just wish it was revealed to me.
Til next time, thanks for reading readers.

Love
Afternoon Readers,
Love is a great emotion to experience. What people don't seem to realize, love can be the cure to any relationship. Everyone needs love. The greatest love of all is "agape" love. This type of love is what God has for us. His love is unconditional. It will never change or He will never change His feelings towards us no matter what we do. His love is everlasting. Can we share love with everyone?
I've noticed that I do alot and accept alot because of love. I guess when you love someone you accept alot of things. You do things for others that you wouldn't normally do. I wouldn't call that conditional love, but love without limits. Sometimes we set our feelings and emotions aside for the greater good. Without love do you think you can give for the greater good?
Think about it, readers!
Be Blessed.

Good or Bad?
Evening Readers,
I was just reading and had a flashback. I was remembering a prophet telling me that I was a good person. Then I thought about a biblical article I read that said no one is good but God. Today I read another biblical book that stated the same. Now I am thinking there maybe some truth to this. Lets compare. God is flawless; we have flaws, God is sinless; yet we sin, let somebody cut us off in traffic, or somebody do something we don't like. God is good and we have good intentions. So as the bible says, its with the heart we please Him.

Confusion...
Good Morning Readers,
I haven't been on in a while. My computer is all kinds of messed up...lol
Have you ever had the same conversation with someone over and over. Its almost like a horrible song playing on repeat. One of my biggest pet peeves is being repetious when I speak. If you are not going to listen to me when I speak..... don't ask. It will save us both alot of time. If I said it the first time and feel pretty adamant about it; then mostlikely my answer will not change. No matter how its worded.
I guess this is where my patience should kick in. But because things like this have the potential of causing me unwanted stress, I say what I feel and change the subject.
Either you believe me or not. Make a decision and stick to it. Stop bringing it back up, especially to me. Move on!!!!!
