Happy Valentine's day to you!

I think it is only natural to have a blog post about valentine's day, don't you think so?! Well it also a thing or two God thought me throughout the day. 

Today after work I was helping a friend set up a surprise for valentine's day! Seriously guys, I think I can start an interior designing business :) Not faltering myself but you would have loved what I did with the place. You would love it, 1) if you are a romantic 2) if you enjoy symmetry of things 3) if you enjoy unique, personalized and creative decorations. As I was working to make this surprise an unforgettable one it hit me how happy I was for my friend. At that moment, I felt as though valentine's day was just for them to celebrate and I didn't really mind. The truth is, I love surprises and I love love love cheesy and romantic things so I would have loved it if someone else was working on how best to surprise me. The reality, I am at home typing out my blog post. Another reality, I don't regret helping my friend and I am so happy for them! Which brings me back to my point, Matthew 7:12! THE GOLDEN RULE!!!

Jesus new it would come in handy one day (actually, we need it everyday of our lives!! He knew it so He told us it!!) when He said "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets" Matthew 7:12. You see if everyone actually followed the golden rule the world would be a better place. No one likes to be stolen from so no one would steal. No one likes to have a family member robbed or killed so no one would rob or kill. Do you see where I am going would this? I would love it if some people got together to work on a way to surprise me so then I collaborated with my friend to make this surprise happen! :) One thing we all have in common is that we all want to be loved! Okay so, by applying the golden rule, it means we ought to love to love others! Right? Learn to love our enemies (Matthew 5:44), learn to love your neighbors (Matthew 22:39) and most importantly learn to Love God (Matthew 22:27). Oh and one last thing, remember we love because He loved us first (1 John 4:19)!

Happy Valentine's Day <3

Stay Blessed<3

Sermon by Jentezen Franklin: Refuse to Pretend

Be a Contender not a Pretender!  1) The time Jacob labored to get Rachel was nothing to him because of how much he loved her. Similarly when you love God all the sacrifices you make are nothing..if you truly love Him that is! "So Jacob served seven years to get Rachel, but they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her." Genesis 29:20 Rachel is his first Love..She is representation of Jesus and His Love where as Leah is the  substitute ..not the real one. Rachel is the one where as Leah is the second option..not the best! Leah is Religion where as Rachel is Relationship with Christ Leah is Survival where as Rachel is Revival 2) Do not be Pretenders but Contenders "Dear friends,  although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share,  I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend  for the faith  that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people."Jude 1:3 Do not be like people who come to church

Sermon by Jentezen Franklin: The Way of the Eagle

God will Fly Faster than you will fall..Then He will catch you! Qualities of an Eagle..we should have these things as Christians 1) An Eagle has Great Vision: It is easy to get lost without a vision 2)  An Eagle feasts only on Living things: We are alive in Christ, we do not need the dead things of our past 3) An Eagle is Faithful : We should be faithful in our relationship with our mates, friends, families and most of all in our relationship with God! When Does an Eagle Soar to the sky with its eyes set on the sun? 1) When a storm is approaching The Eagle sets its eyes on the heaven above as a storm approaches. We need to set our Gaze on Christ when storms come our way. "Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things." Colossians 3:2 2) When its enemy approaches The Condor is Eagle's enemy and it knows the only way it can win is if the Eagle stays down (when the Eagle doesn't soar to the sky) The only way our enemy will win u
