This Battle is Not Your's - Yolanda Adams.
“if you don’t understand anything, know that you’ve been set up by God to blessed. Understand that it’s gotta work this way… Understand that God knows, God knows, God knows what you need, before you really need it. ”
I haven’t been to church in like a year. I really need to get to that place & let my soul feel something positive. this military life is something stressful, I tell you. I really wish I could fly to California or Atlanta, or something & go to church. I love Dr. Stanley & I definitely miss Rev. Starr ; I need some soul healing word, something to let me know the Lord is still here, although I know he is. & he’s never left me… it’s just good to hear. I have to find a good church at my next duty section. It’s imperative, especially being a wife, it’s going to be VERY stressful. I know I have an amazing support group; but things are so different now. especially, being like so close to being married. I don’t really know who I can confide in now besides him. I need more positive people. I hope my next duty station has better people than this place, that I’m at right now. because, I feel like I’m going to kill someone here.!
sigh.
I’m not really sure what I do to deserve some of the treatment I receive ; but I’ve decided that it must be to make me a better person. tomorrow, I am going to church to give my thanks to God. it’s been long enough ; I’m excited to be back around people whom share the same values as myself. I get lost in this world sometimes… but I like the prodigal son will always return home. ; goodnight loves.
sometimes, I wonder how I survived such horrible things…
& then , I remember God is real & on my side.
I need to be more active in my relationship with him; I check on everyone besides him & he’s the person keeping me alive. I’ve got to do better, if he was a boyfriend … we would be so broken up right now. I mean like I never call… smh, but he knows my heart & knows my soul .; I’m glad his love is unconditional, blessed am I.
dear church.
; I need to find an amazing church home ; I think I am missing God in my life … I keep wanting things to happen & wondering why they aren’t happening the way I want them to & I do believe it is because, I’m not right with Christ. now, I will rant to anyone about the love of the Lord. I am a believer. I don’t consider myself extremely religious , I’m probably more spiritual but I feel the need to go to church & I’ve never felt that . I think it’s just about that time. I’ve been straying away from what I know way too long & it’s time for me to come back. I feel like the prodigal son , well, daughter in this case… but yes, I HAVE to go to church Sunday morning. I just know its going to make my life better. I need that ; to keep me grounded. I love the Lord, for he has heard my cry. I need to pray more often too. I never do that. I haven’t really prayed in years. sheesh ; I’ve got to do better. I’m going to go to church Sunday even if I have to go alone. -_-
#thatisALL.
; I don’t think I can stress enough how territorial I am ; I’m surprised God didn’t make me a dog. but then again , I can be a bitch sometimes. I really do believe in what’s yours being yours ; & I hate thieves…terribly, if you steal, you’ll lie & if you lie, you’ll kill & if you kill ; who knows what else your capable of. I believe in loyalty, once something is mine , if can’t be yours … unless, I give it to you.
Everything in life happens for a reason.; some of the things we go through can be prevented. ; but fate will always rise above. I do believe in fate, but I also strongly believe that you determine your own fate . ; like if God wants you to become something you aren’t going to tread to far from that . you might diddle in a lot of the wrong places but you will always find your way back home. just like the story of the prodigal son ; he always came back home. anywho , I’m rambling. but like I was saying everything happens for a reason … although , a lot of things can be prevented ; they happened to teach you something. don’t forget to take notice & appreciate the lessons life gives you , it can help you in the challenges your going to face ahead of you.
; Good Afternoon,
…so, I’ve been back home for a couple days now ; & I’ve had lots of time to think & make some realizations. I’ve realized that I gripe a lot over small things & I really shouldn’t sweat those things. I’m very hard on myself. ; I could be doing much worse than I am right now. I always want things to come when I want them to come & I’m working on becoming copasetic with being on God’s time. RIGHT NOW, may not be what I need right now; there’s obviously something I still have to learn here. & in my yearning to be out , I’m overlooking it. so, in the last couple months that I have left in this state, I am going to look at the positives. I’m near family, friends, I have amazing boyfriend. I’m safe, healthy & on my way to making major moves. God has placed me here for a reason ; so, I have to make my mark. i’m always preaching on changing the world through myself … so, I suppose this is my chance. maybe, he put me here to change here. change myself ; mature & help others see things in a different perspective while they help me. I know I was meant to do something… so, while I’m here ; i’m going to try & figure that out . I honestly don’t have that much longer, July will be here in no time.
