Life Can Be Good!

 

I have been feeling so lonely, so vulnerable,  so slow in my thinking, so desperate. I feel abandoned. I am an orphan among other orphans. I am a widow among millions others, I am a less privileged and people judge me that I am lazy. I am to do something but I lake means. How to go about alone? where to start from. I am so scared of how things are happening, of how people have become butchers of their fellow human beings.  I cry day and night for my loved ones who have left this world. I see a lot injustice in the world. A 14 years old girl is just been shot because men have found that she is a peace activist. Who in the whole world does not want peace of mind, body and soul? who on earth does not want to go to sleep happily?  I am crying for peace in my house, my family, my neighborhood.  My community is in need of love, justice. My people need food to sustain their physical  body. The world needs peace and love to shine.  We are too selfish. I want to love you as the Lord maker and heaven and earth recommended, I want to feel loved. I need to respect humanity and I think that I deserve to be treated as human being. Let stop humiliating each other. Let’s hold each other by our hands and embark on the journey to peace, love. Let ‘s treat each other as who we are and not what we are. Do not ridicule me! do not belittle me. Stop pointing your gun on human creatures. Stop making fan of the beggar in the street. He might have made bad choices but it is not fully his fault. He too want to smile and share a meal with his loved one. Let us all come together as created by one Holy, forgiving God to pray for peace, love and justice in the Land of our Lord. Africa, Europe, Asia, America, etc… we beg for peace, love and justice. Our children need a safer place to grow. We should not let Satan continue his because He is very furious and is willing to cause all kind of sufferance to us because He only has a very short period. Revelation 12:12 Love from me to you all!

 

How Do We Understand The Disadvantaged People?

Most of the time we minimize people’s  feelings and needs. As we continue to support the disadvantaged students in the Togo, we have come to realize that the needs are more than we thought and this, I would not blame anybody because we all did not know.

The needs are so many and one might not know where to start from but we can still choose   to start somewhere, somehow and anyhow.

 

 

 

When you ask a child or a student in some remote areas of the world, about what they need help with in becoming a positive person, an intellectual,  some will say a school uniform, other books and more will tell you that they need a support with the school fees and others will  express the need of more schools closer distance to where they live  and or bicycle to get to school.  (the distance between their house and the school.) Children are walking for 4 kilometers to reach school and this,  4 time a day.  As opposed to the students in developed countries who want an iPad,  iPod, Nook, a laptop and so on.

As I am writing this, it is not that I am only taking what they said. It is because I know what they are talking about. I have lived there, I have walked the same miles or kilometers to school, I needed the same that they need today with the world wide’s hardship that everybody knows.

On September 9th 2012, as the Friends of Disadvantaged Students for Brighter Future FDSBF) were at CEG of Badja in Togo for the second edition of supporting the school, the students and their families, we got to notice that human being in certain areas of the world needs more than we can think.

Women, men, teacher, kings, students need to be stimulated by hearing from others. Women want to see the successful fellow women and hear from other women,  their experiences and how they made. We wand to wish to sit down with other women that were in the same conditions as they are now and learn how to do things. They wish another women could share her family life, business life, social live with them. Students want to be able to talk with other students from other schools such as elementary, meddle,  and high schools, even with universities. They want to know what possibilities and opportunities are there not only in their towns and cities or countries but also what the world has available for them.

My people of the whole world, join me to help human beings of the other part of the world. Know that your help will never fall in ungrateful hands. As little as you think it will be, your  contribution will still make a difference. Peace and love to you all

What Is Happening With WordPress?

 

I don’t know if I am the only person that is having these troubles with WordPress  Yesterday, as I was checking my blog, I noticed that 269 people have posted comments on my weblog via spam. I was shocked and the first thought were: how I am going to reply to all these comments? who are these people? and how did they suddenly got to hit on my articles like that? So I decided to look in to it and I found that not all the messages were supposed to be in my box. I just don’t know how those messages landed here. So are you or anyone you know having the same trouble with WordPress of Google? next I have noticed that the comments are sometimes the same as the one of a week ago, a month or two. Moreover, the some comments are coming from the same people about the same article. Is there anything that we should know of? Moreover, today I ‘ve noticed that I did not receive and visitor to my WordPress blog but I still have 159 comments. How are they coming into my inbox? What is generating the re-comments? Please help me better understand. Thanks

 

What A New Day And It’s Grace!

I will never stop learning . This morning I have learned from Pastor Creflo Dollar  in one of his night preaching. I quote:  “Every challenge of the life is an opportunity of the manifestation of God’s grace” and this one : What the Lord has given me, I am going to fight to keep it ” Are you and I really working hard to our gifts or are we letting them go away from us in replacement to the evil or Satan‘s ruling.?So let us meditate on these words of the Lord in  

Ephesian 6: 10-12  Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his power. Put on the whole Armour of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rules, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Next what should we do to be able to withstand the evil spirits? Before we get to that, I would like us to understand that we are living with evil rulers in this world who are jealous and is absolutely after and causing us all sorts of pain, sufferance and even destroying our world. Can anybody understand why human beings are killing each other? then, the next thing we always hear is: “I did not know what come over me” Can you imagine that a fiancée stubbed to death her husband to be 5 hours before their wedding? And she said that she did not mean to kill him or rider, she did not know how it happened. Doctors will say that this type of person is sick. I think that the source is satanic. Caused by the cosmic powers.

In this case this is what the scriptures are teaching us. Still in the same chapter of Ephesian 6: 13-18 this is how we can fight Satan and give him no room and no opportunity in our lives : Therefore, take up the whole Armour of God, so that you may be able to withstand on that evil day, and having done everything to stand firm. Stand therefore, and fasten the belt of truth around your waist, and put on the breastplate of righteousness. As shoes for your feet put on whatever will make you ready to proclaim the gospel of peace. With all these, take the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the world of God. Now, Pray in the Spirit at all times in every prayer ans supplication. To that end keep alert and always persevere  in supplication for all the saints. Moreover, let us pray for each other so that because we are blessed for reading this, that we may speak and share the words of the Lord with boldness. Now what?

Brothers ans sisters no much to say than getting set, ready and go. We have a lot to do in order to preserve our lives, that of our community, and the world in general.

Peace to you  all.

Are You Consumed With All Kinds Of Fear?

 

I know that I am afraid of something. May be I am afraid that my friends are abandoning me. You are afraid of spider and height. Anyway, who among us will say that she or he does not fear? I doubt it. Every body is afraid of something and we worry ourselves so much that we lose the benefits of the amazing grace of love that God has given us; the unconditional love that God, Jehovah, the Almighty has for you and I. As I was reading my Bible this morning and I believe that I was inspired by God, I see that He has an unfailing Love for us:  the kind of love that doesn’t quit when you fail or something unexpected happens. It doesn’t quit when someone ridicules you or you let someone down and mess up. If God is for us who is against us? If God’s spirit is in us why should we fear. He did not withhold His own and only Son, and that, He did it for our sake. He will also give us everything that we need. Here in Paul’s Letter to Romans we read: “I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love which Christ Jesus our Lord shows us. We can’t be separated by death or life, by angels or rulers, by anything in the present or anything in the future, by forces or powers in the world above or in the world below, or by anything else in creation.” (Romans 8:38-39).

 

Fear is an enemy: avoid it and fight it

Now there is no more reason to be afraid of anything in my life as long as I understand that God, loves me, His spirit is in me and with me. If I have the spirit of God, trust me and believe in God the spirit of God does not give me a spirit of any kind of fear. In the second letter of Paul to Timothy 1 : 7 we learn that : God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and self discipline.” The French verse says: “car Dieu ne nous a pas donné un esprit de lâcheté, mais de puissance, d’amour et de bon sense” Dear brothers and sisters let’s all believe and trust in God for all He has done and promised because He loves us unconditionally no matter what. Also love one another. 

Reading and meditating the Bible, and having Faith in the words of the Lord, will help us to overcome our fear

Women Are Talking At Passion Beauty

 

As it is always said that when you want to hear things, go to a beauty salon. Women always have something to share. Among everything that we talked about, here is the best talk of the week that I would like to share.

Black women’s natural hair is diversified in texture. sometimes when when it is damage, it will not be healthy to apply any chemical such as color, relaxer, perm even heat. So at Passion Beauty, we like to get the client’s hair more manageable

At Passion Beauty, a home licensed cosmetology salon, I vow to work on appointment only. Usually, I like to  open the door to one person, take care of her beauty needs. After she lives, I clean the place and sanitize the implements then I can  have the next client. Sometimes, I have the next come a little earlier like 5 to 10 minutes before her time.  Moreover, sometimes, it happens that I may have two to three ladies almost at the same time. This happens when one needs a touch up of her weave, an eye brow, stopping by to get some products,  or anything quick. So on this particular day, I had three ladies with different salon services. The first person had a color, scalp and hair treatment. the next lady just needed to fill in her weave extensions and the third came in for scalp and hair treatment, then to braids. As soon as the third lady came in and after greeting everyone, she said: “you are coloring her hair and you refused to color mine”  then said you know well that I did not refuse to do your hair color. It just because of the damage of your scalp and hair that is holding me from applying any chemical to your hair. Now the lady with the hair color said: “you don’t want to know how long she has been doing my hair and today is the first time she accepted to color my hair” . She went on to let the other ladies understand how bad her scalp was before we met. But the grace of God with the scalp and her treatment that she has been getting, she has this hair on her hair today. Ladies chat went on and on till the lady who came for scalp-hair treatment and braids asked: “what do you think about black women wearing natural hair to work?” “I won’t mind wearing my hair natural for work but I had never had good hair to wear it like that. But since I started coming to Passion Beauty, my hair has been getting better and I think that wearing my natural hair to work is going to be an option. We all don’t mind the idea. Next  she added this to her question: “With all the competition at the job places and positions?” This is what really made me write this article. The touch up lady replied this way: “if a job or a position is yours, nobody and nothing will stop you from getting it. She said if you don’t get the job or the position, know that it was not mint to be yours or the time has not    come yet. Then she continued with her personal example and I call it testimony. She told us about how she got the job  that she is doing right now and that she does with love and passion. She said that there was a time that she really wanted to work with a certain company. She saw the company’s add or job opening and she applied. After she was called for an interview, she was offered the job at a lower pay that she did not like; so she refused the position. A year of two later, she received two emails about the same position,  and emails that she did not check for three days. As soon as she read the emails, she first sent an email apologizing for the delay. Then she did the necessary required for her interview. She was told that they will call her after two days and when she got the phone call, it was a promise of another phone interview for 15 minutes that ended up at 45 minutes. She said that her manager said: ” I just like you and I know that you will do you work and more than I expected”. She got the job that year with a better pay.  End of story. I would like to share this with you and the whole world that when you give yourself, your whole life to our Lord, and His Son Jesus Christ, Trust God on this: nothing will weigh you down and nothing will take away your joy.

This lady did not get the job the first time just because it was not the right time, the people were not the right people that she could work with in harmony at the time. Remember what God says in 1 Corinthian 7: 19,  God said : or do you not know that your body is the temple of the holy spirit within you , which  you  have from God, and that you are not your own?  for you were bought with a price; therefore, glorify God in your body. I believe that even the work that I do for a salary of a pay should be done as God wants me to and I do this for his own glory. So when ever I am haunting for job or a position or even a change of statute and I put it in God’s hand, He will not fail me. Even if I don’t get it the way I want it, God knows what is better  for me and so does He for you.

GOD LOVES US & KNOWS WHAT IS BEST FOR US.
He created us in His image, Gen. 1:26-27.
He understands our emotions, intellect,
He knows our needs, physical & spiritual.
He knows our weaknesses & our strengths.

Peace and love you all!!!

 

My High Desire To Become Somebody: Part II

I was brought to the Earth by the Lord’s grace through a man and a women. By his grace, I am who I am. It seems like now I need to make something out of my life. No matter who parents are, were, I strongly believe that my parents’ life should not affect my life. Wait did I say that their life should not affect my life? No sweet heart, it does affect my life. It is not that I have to carry on how my parents lived, what they had, who they mingled with etc. The reason why they life has affected me is because I choose to draw the consequences of their life to build my way of living by the grace of the Lord knowing that I can not do anything with God’s authorization and authority. For example if my parents were peaceful people, I ask what has peace done into their life?

My dream of becoming somebody has not ceased and will not stop until I reach my goals in live unless God decides order wise and I believe that at any age, any where and anytime, God that I fear, worship and wow to know better will reveal activities and services that I am created to accomplish. Oh God I thank you right now for this revelation. My brothers and sisters who are reading this article, please read carefully what is coming next, do not stop reading. As I was about to write what I want to become, (an entrepreneurial, a leader, a successful person ), the Lord has just revealed this to me and this has and must be my guide line. I heard : to look for a holy life and I read this in 1 Peter 1: 13-16;  therefore prepare your minds for actions; discipline yourselves; set all your hopes on the grace that Jesus Christ will bring you when he is revealed. Like obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires that you formerly had in ignorance. Instead, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct; for it is written, “you shall be holy, for I am holy. Jehovah, Lord, I glorify your name!” You are a true God. Now things are making sense. I really wanted to write about physical positions of climbing the lather of success and prosperity. Now I have fund the best one through which everything and anything is possible.  I will worship you all the days of my life and teach my children your words and proclaim your mystery. I think I am done thinking about my dreams on my own and by myself. I have to do what I have to do and get what I was created to be. Now I understand why I could not put all my dreams in the article that I titled “My High Desire To Become Somebody: Part I“. God is so amazing and give amazing graces. I know that by becoming and living as a servant of God, my dreams will not suffer. He is encouraging you and I to stop dreaming in the flesh; dreams that wage war against the soul. in 1 Peter 3: 12, I learn : conduct yourself honorably among the Gentiles, so that, though they malign you as evildoers, they may see your Honorable deeds and glorify God when He come to judge.

Now I am understanding what to do. I have to learn to be faithful to my creator. He says that faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not see. Indeed by faith, our ancestors received approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible. Hebrews 11: 1-3. By faith, our forfather Abraham obeyed when he was called to set up a place that he was to receive as an inheritance and he set out, not knowing where he was going. …… Hebrews 11:8 and on.

My the grace of the Lord, the Almighty Maker of Heaven and Earth be will us on all the lands so that we may understand through the Holy Spirit what w ought to do in this world. Not to run for vain prestige, prosperity that are destroying our soul. By faith in Jehovah, the Almighty, I believe that He has a purpose to my life and I own Him obedience, then He will reveal to me how to bring my stone to the edification of a better world. Help me oh Lord! in Jesus’ name.

My Movie Theater Experience

I have been telling my children that we could watch movies and any kind we want at home, sitting in our comfort couch and shewing what ever we want and eating anything, and this, in a more familial setting. But children, or people in general like  to experiment. We will never know what you are missing, what you are losing until you get to face the reality.  I was not a movie theater person. To me that is the way some people are making their money; so I need to find my own way to live a better live. I didn’t that not going to a movie Theater might negatively affect my life, my social, intelligence or anything about me. Some movies are writing in a book form. I had my way to know as story in the theater in  different sources of information. Even when I did not have one, I  think  could be learning something else where theater movie lovers were away. Today, we the Red Box, the Netflix, the cables and companies, my problem of not going to a movie theater solves my “fear” . Next, we do things sometimes because of the change, the new location, the people we meet and the changes in the mentality, and changes in human’s behavior. Till I started having children, I have never gone to a movie theater. Then when my son turn 13 and 14, he started bringing the idea of going to a movie because a class mate said that he or she was with their families. As a mother, sometimes you don’t want to be always seeing as the one that knows nothing or is out of style, not updated. After several demands, I had to comply and take them to our local movie theater. I expected better that what I saw.

The very first time I was at a Movie Theater, I felt unsafe and I was disappointed by the fact that I did not see any secured way to protect myself and my children: There was not scanning system to see if the clients a the Theater were entering the premises with any armful device, the popcorn box was too expensive, salty or buttery, the pops more that I could just pick one from my fridge and I could even want to have a fruit as I am siting, relaxing, and watching.   Next we were in a dark room of course sitting by people we don’t know because they could be the worse people I would want to sit by. As we sat down, I prayed for safety in the whole building and for each individual in general and for my family in particular. Then I asked the children to be in the Spirit of God, the Almighty. This because  From beginning to the end of the movie, which was “Karate Kid” I was uncomfortable then I had the assurance that I have put that moment, the people the building in the hands of our Lord and Jesus. He said ask and it will be given.  Knowing that God does not lie to us.  I felt safer,  then I was wondering if we really needed to be there. But because I know that we were in God’s protection, I slept. I had gone as second time and a third time thought and I always fall asleep. I don’t think that movie theaters are meant for me. Today, as I am writing this article, I am planning never to go to a movie theater, and I sounded loud, then my 11 years old daughter told me that she was going to tell me that we should stop going to the movie theater and if the need arises, we should use the red-box movies or Netflix because of the shooting that took place at Aurora in Colorado last Friday around Midnight. Sometimes, we do things that we believe we have to but that are not necessary. I did not go to the movie theater but I don’t think that I am a lesser person. Be blessed and let us take care of one another.
