Okay, you guys know whenever I come across something GREAT I have to share it with you. As you all know I am apart of Pinky Promise,( if you don't know what that is check my entries below) so I am all for saving yourself for marriage and being pure. Well, one of my Pinky Promise Sister; Kourtnea, shared this poem with us as a discussion. I didn't read it right away . I came across it again and it blew my mind!! I know I watched that video a thousand times the first night!
The poem is called, "I will wait for you" by P4CM Official Poet Janette...ikz. When I say I love it, I love this poem. It inspires me so much. It gave me that little push saying, "Yes God I will continue to wait for what You have for me."
Some of the parts that stayed with me: "And I will know you because when you speak I will be reminded of Solomon's wisdom, Your ability to lead will remind me of Moses, Your faith will remind me of Abraham, Your confidence in Gods word will remind me of Daniel, Your inspiration will remind me of Paul, Your heart for God will remind me of David, Your attention to detail will remind me of Noah, Your integrity will remind me of Joseph and your ability to abandon your own will remind me of the disciples. But your ability to love selflessly and unconditionally will remind me of Christ!"
I love that!!! That's how the person that God has for me should be! That's the standard right there. But she didn't leave herself out:
"You will find me where the boldness of Esther meets the warm, closeness of Ruth. Where the hospitality of Lydia is aligned with the submission of Mary which is engulfed in the tears of a praying Hannah. I will be the one... drenched in Proverbs 31. Waiting for you."
When I heard her say that I was like this is deep. I need to pull out my bible and read about all these women because how can I expect for God to send me somebody like the above if I'm not even have half the knowledge of what the bible says a woman of God should be?? So just as I require much, much is required of me as well.
Heres the link for the poem. I really hope you enjoy it, tell me what you think.

Be Content!
Good Morning! As I spend time with God He gives me my scripture for the day. So I thought why not share them with you guys!
Today's scripture comes from Philippians 4:11, "Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content." I love this scripture! If you don't already know I have a major issue with control and sometimes I want things to go faster than they are going or I immediately want things to go my way. How many of you watch reality tv (La La, Toya, Tiny & TI) any show that falls along those lines. Anyway, how many of you have see them and are like, "God I wish I had a life like theirs. I wish I had money like theirs.(this is my favorite one) I wish I had a relationship like theirs." I am sooooo guilty of this. We have got to realize that we need to be content and thankful for the state that we are in. We don't know what goes on behind closed doors in those peoples lives. We don't see their struggles or even how they got all this money.We can not rush God. Cause let me tell you something I rushed God, prayed and prayed for something and when He gave it to me(cause God gives us what we ask for) I had no peace at ALL!! I should've been content with the things and the life I had. Stop trying to have God alter your life on the things you want than what you need. God is a provider and He knows your hearts every desire! CALM DOWN! In due time when you're ready God will give it to you. And trust me Gods time is better than mans time.

Something New ;)
Hey Everyone I'm back!! And this time for good. I took some time off to do research. It's my desire to reach people in my generation and bring them closer to God. I prayed about it and God gave me an answer. So be expecting some new things to come. I plan on doing vlogs, interviews, giveaways, I mean I really want to get you all involved. I believe that people learn more when it's coming from someone who's been through it and interaction and I can definitely do that for you all. As you can see I'm very excited! Me writing and you all reading was fine, but I'm not going to limit or put God in a box. He wants to do BIGGER &GREATER! So If you have any suggestions on what you would like to see, comments, whatever please comment below!
