Hey there pretty people!
Today is Sunday the first of December. What a great day to start a blog, am I right? First off, since it’s Sunday, I wanted to explain what typically goes on this day in my life. Church. I attend a small Southern church in the friendly little town of Lincolnton, Georgia. I would say it’s pretty old fashioned, where the pastor preaches straight out of the Bible and likes to joke a good bit. Basically its the best thing ever. The wisest souls attend this church and I never fail to learn something new each time I attend. Sunday for me personally is a day of catching up on school, rest, and my favorite; laying all the things that happened in the past week down at the feet of Jesus. I pray every Sunday the Lord will keep me meek the coming week. When I used to think of the word meek I thought, weak. I thought sympathy. Turns out, God is the meekest person I have ever met. Meekness is strength under control. It disarms criticism. Its says in Galations 6:1 “Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the spirit should restore that person gently.” Aside from praying and reflecting, I look forward to spending time with family. Whether shopping with my people after church or just spending time at home, it’s all truly golden. Today we are officially decorating our house for Christmas. As I look around I see pure bliss. The memories like today I hold dear to my heart. Every day is a new day, with a new battle and although sometimes I experience defeat, getting back up again is what builds strength. I’d like to say for me in the middle of my distress, I try to always look for Jesus. If forgotten I look for the joy in the past moments and it usually lifts my burden. God does play a role to this. Blessings. You look for the blessing in Every moment and you will find it because our God is good. All the time. On that note, my first blog is done!
