THANK YOU FOR USING ME LORD
“Lord, I'm not your best servant but I strive to be faithful. I'm not the most articulate but I'm committed to self improvement. Father, I must say I'm the least perfect of your servants but I'm glad you find usefulness in cracked pots and broken vessels to do your will. So thank you for using me, my God I'm honored to be your instrument, to be your willing servant. Amen!” Matthew 7:7 (May 31, 2020, original post May 2014)

RELATIONSHIP MISTAKES WE HAVE MADE
1. We flirted but we never really talked to each other.

2. We showed all our strengths but never talked about our weaknesses.

3. We shared our bodies before we ever knew each others' hearts.

4. Unfortunately we decided to make love before we ever fell in love.

5. We were immature and hurt each other but we should have helped each other & heard each other out, the arguments didn't work, they never work.

6. We should have shared our dreams before we shared a child together.

7. We should have respected each other and we wouldn't have neglected each other.

Let's communicate so we learn each other & let's listen so we know each other. Let's be loyal so we can trust each other.

Let's pray together, before we lay together. Let's not fake how we really feel - but speak the truth in love. Who knows we might actually learn to love each other for real & make life together... I Corinthians 13:1-13

Friends, if you ask God for nothing else, make sure you ask Him for Peace. I noticed when I was disconnected from God, in rebellion, or just removed from spirituality, I had no peace. Such peace I have come to realize is a “Fruit of the Spirit,” it is even a part of the "whole armor of God!" This is a spiritual design to help us withstand attacks of evil, endurance in the storm adversity, and have victory amid crisis. It's a table prepared for you, but in front of your enimies! Our peace is an inner experience of our own faith. True spiritual peace is being rightly related to God and one another. Get reconnected Fam, you need your peace... Gal. 5:22, Eph. 6:11-13
