single and waiting

Life in the single lane, is something most people experience at some point in their life. This is just my personal experience, that I thought I'd share with you all. Isaiah 40:31 "Those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weak"

you think you know a person

Hey all!! How are we this fine evening?

You think you know a person, and then they turn out to be the exact opposite of what you thought, ever happened to you? Sometimes you see only what you want to see, in a person, that is…all their good points and merits. You can make yourself blind to their faults until you are forced to see them, and deal with them. It is always so much harder when you like the person, because your feelings for them completely cloud your judgement. People, we gotta wake up!!

My father got a shock yesterday when my mum and sisters and myself, returned from dress shopping. Being the person that I am, this was a challenge. Anyway, I found this beautiful pink ball gown (so not me) that my mum had chosen for one of my other sisters. I thought it would be funny to try it on…they all loved it on me. My poor father…it was like one of his three wishes had finally come true…his tomboy daughter wearing a pink dress. Changes like that, are minor, but some changes can be more damaging.

Change can be a good thing, it really can. I know my flaws, I’m the first to admit them, but a little change here, can be so positive. A little push to change, can be just what you need. I don’t believe that people can actually force you to change, but they can strongly encourage you. If you have a problem with someone, address the issue with them, don’t gossip about it. You will only reap what you sow!!

Do not be deceived by this “good guy” image that we so often see. We are all sinners, and some of us are just better at hiding it from our peers than others are. But no one can hide it from God.

peace
