Happy Heart.

It's so hard to see the light in the midst of a storm. All the pain and sadness takes over and you feel so alone. And sometimes you think to yourself, "but God I'm a good person! why me??" God doesn't want you to be sad, and He definitely didn't intend for that either. Stop saying"why me?" and answer God with "Let Your will be done." Even good people have to go through trials. I know you saw the "have to" and I say that because no one has the perfect life. Jesus went through obstacles in life, He overcame those. You can too. Life isn't always going to rainbows and butterflies. Life is a very precious and beautiful thing God has given us. You can turn a bad day into a good day, that is if you choose to. The Bible tells us that our life is very short. "Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow." Psalm 144:4  My Momma always told me that every second I spend sad, that's a second of happiness I'll never get back. She's so right. In the short amount of time I've been on earth I had realized I've spent so much time being upset about things I can't change. I can't change how people treat me, no matter how hard I try to be kind to them. I can't change what happens when things don't always go my way. I'll tell you what I can change. I can change my heart towards the people who wrong me, and love harder! Just because people aren't always kind doesn't mean I'm going to stop being kind. That shows what's really going on in your heart. I can change my attitude and realize that things may not be going my way for a reason. God's ways are not always our ways and sometimes I need that reality check. There's so many more things that I can not change,but there is always always a solution, and it's not that the other person needs to change. Stop trying to point your fingers at someone else, your problem isn't someone else. It's something inside of you, that you have to let God fix. Ask God for a change of heart. God wants us to be happy. You can have that,let him into your heart. I'm not saying that don't ever be sad, because everyone gets sad. It's okay to be sad, and to cry. There's a time for everything (Ecclesiastes 3). Also, don't be afraid to cry, it doesn't make you weak. The strongest man I know cried, and that man's name is JESUS. It doesn't make you any less of a man. What I'm trying to get across is that the best way to find love and happiness is to find God. He will meet you in the middle of your mess and storm. Are you happy?

What are you advertising?

Don't throw your pearls to pigs. Don't complain about guys being completely inappropriate when that's the kind of guys you're luring in. It's a guy's responsibility to respect you, but also give him something to respect. Modest is hottest. What you're wearing is your bill board. What are you advertising?
