CHECK HER OUT!!!: Hayley C

Look at ME poem/ New Year's Resolution

Look at me

Proud and ready to be

All above the possibilities

Look at me

Im happy and free

No more chains holding me

See my fire and desire

Harmonic and melodic like the choir

I am one and all

Here fulfilling and running to my call

Realization hits and im just

As HE wants with no fuss

Look at me

A prize for all to see

Child of God ready for duty

Intellect far more than a cutie

No longer that should be me

No longer searching for prosperity

This is it

Safe and sound

This is it

Declaring for heaven bound

Taking the stand

Don't need a brand

Secure and wrapped in the blood of the lamb

Look at me

Can't you see

That little girl is erased

A woman has taken her place

And she is more that you can imagine

Filled with love and deep passion

Not amused by your dress

Because it takes far more to impress

Don't second guess

Look at ME


As 2009 comes to a close, I have to say that I am thankful for this year because it was definitely the year of letting go. I am closer to God, focused, and ready. 2010 is the year I feel will be the year that I will finally WIN and God will reveal things to me that I never saw coming. I am looking forward to being stronger spiritually and mentally. I also want to gain my security back and get my health on track. I dont really want to make a New Years Resolution but continue on God's path.

btw I am happy to see some new inspirations (70 followers yay!!!!) I hope this blog continues to grow and stand for its purpose:)

Know your POSITION.

I think as women we need to understand our position. God placed us here on earth to be simply help. Now this doesnt mean you have to be under someone command or demand, but you do have to understand your position. This is the reason why marriages are failing and why sometimes us good girls end up with the short end of the stick.

God made man the head of the household and made women his help and not the head. After that is the children. It may seem again we are being brought down, but look a little closer, it isnt that way because men arent suppose to rule us or dominate over us. He is simply the one with the final say with our help.

Position is simply a place or arrangement for order. It has nothing to do with having more education, wisdom, or other attribute to make us feel we should be higher than the next person. These things do not make you or anyone else ruler of anything. It is just what it is. We are the weaker vessel not in strength or faith but in position. Yes, as women, we were made and its in our nature to be independent beings (there is no coincidence there is more women on earth than men but nehoo!), so in essence it is true, we dont need men, they need us, but we must understand position and order.

Ephesians 5:22-33
5:22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord, 5:23 because the husband is the head of the wife as also Christ is the head of the church – he himself being the savior of the body. 5:24 But as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. 5:25 Husbands, love your wives just as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her 5:26 to sanctify her by cleansing her with the washing of the water by the word, 5:27 so that he may present the church to himself as glorious – not having a stain or wrinkle, or any such blemish, but holy and blameless. 5:28 In the same way husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 5:29 For no one has ever hated his own body but he feeds it and takes care of it, just as Christ also does the church, 5:30 for we are members of his body. 5:31 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. 5:32 This mystery is great – but I am actually speaking with reference to Christ and the church. 5:33 Nevertheless, each one of you must also love his own wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

A few weeks ago, a preacher brought this to the attention of the church and it really but many things in perspective, so of course I had to share this with you guys.

Alicia Key's "The Element of Freedom"

I will this album from Alicia Keys 5 Stars. I love this album from beginning to end, but if I had to choose some favorites, they would consist of:

1. Love is Blind


2. Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart


3. Doesnt Mean Anything


4. Like a Sea


5. Put It in a Love Song

I want my RAINbow

Adorable.

Is this true?

I always thought your heart stays the same and real feelings of the heart dont go away. Maybe I am wrong.

Me.

I am virtue
And proud
Pure and soulful
I'll scream out loud
I am blessed
See my smile
I don't want those clothes
Cause they don't fit no way
I don't need to say those words
Cause God's words are all i need to say
I don't need to hate
Cause im too busy in praise
I don't need to conform to the world
Cause heaven is coming forever and a day
I am gonna live my life like it's golden
Can't stop won't stop
I am gonna find him
Even on the mountain top
I am going to fulfill my destiny
And neva let it flop

Omg...IM SICK!!!

Hello All,

I am not feeling well at all right now. I have a cold and it just wont go away. Does nebody know some home remedies I can use??

Nehoo...I just wanted to stop by here and see how you guys were doing and hopefully by Thursday I will be able to share my New Years Resolution. I am kind of hesitant about sharing it because every year I end up not fulfilling it but maybe 2010 will be different.

Well ttyl xoxo

Stepped on the scale and this is what it said.....

Remember this for CHRISTmas...

Hello,

How are you guys? Is everyone ready for Christmas and New Years? Well I am...I am thankful for whats in store this holiday season no matter the outcome. As you can see I have changed around my blog a little bit because it is just simply time for a change. Its still the same but different. I dont want to go too far out of my element. I hope you like some of the changes and if not...well...idk what to tell you lol

Well just in case I dont get to tell you guys Merry Christmas....MERRRRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!!!!!!!

AND since Im in the swing of things I guess I can tell you what I want for Christmas and my New Years Resolution. For Christmas I just want to be happy and be around those that I love. My New Years Resolution is to simply succeed at whatever I put my mind to whether it be losing weight, graduating from college, or getting my first car. I can go on and on, but I just want to be in God's will and purpose:)

Well ttyl xoxo

GoodtoKnow.

Romans 8:38-39
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Beautiful.

Virtue.

I have wanted to speak on this subject for a while now and Im pretty sure this will not be the only post on this subject from me. It is in my spirit to speak on this subject because I feel we are living in a time where many are not trying to live up to virtue. Now yes as humans we are born into sin and are also given our own will and it is up to us what we decide to do with that will. You can either give it to God or give it to something else other than God.

I understand virtue as simply living in righteousness and upholding God's principles of faith, love, and hope. I struggle with virtue everyday as I am pretty sure most of you do too. From the negative thoughts to the storms that come in life, sometimes it is hard to maintain your/my virtue. It it also a struggle when it seems like those that dont uphold virtue are given earthly blessings, and it seems as if God has forgotten about you. When things dont simply happen for me/us like they used to or in our time, we began to feel doubt God. This is nature. We are nature. We are just dust that God gave life to.

Im going to get a little personal. If you have read my previous blog posts, you will see that I feel strongly about being a virgin. I just want to be that Proverbs Woman truthfully. I want to be able to walk down the aisle in a full white dress where I am completely covered in white and not have to look over my shoulder every five seconds and feel some type of way about wearing a white dress. I want to do things the right way especially in this area. I do not pass judgement on anyone that fornicates outside of marriage. My closest of closest that are dear to me have had sex outside of marriage. This has always just been a dream of mine and one that I want to come true even if everything else doesnt come through for me.


I am human and have fallen short. I can be the first to tell you that I struggle with stress and depression. In other words, I am not as strong as I should be in hope and faith. There are times when God tells me to do something and I dont do it out of being fearful and not having strong faith. I am working on all these things because I am seeing He can give and He can take away. Those gifts that He gives us to use for Him is just that. We have to use them for His will and when the opportunity presents itself, you better go for it even if your humanistic side doesnt want to.


I want to encourage everyone especially my female peers not to give up on your virtue. Stay in God's keeping. Im sure it will all work out the way it is intended for your best interest. Im not just speaking on sex persay but just your overall life. Be the best you can be in God's will!

I just bought makeup for less than $5

Hello my fellow bloggers,

I am just coming through to say hhheeeyyyy and I am happy to see some new inspirations (67 followers yay!!) I like to call you my inspirations because in a way you guys keep me striving and make feel somewhat important. Thank you for stopping through and showing me love:) xoxo

btw I just came from Dollar General (I repeat Dollar General) and bought some great makeup for under $5. I got the L.A. Colors: 5 Color Eyeshadow TEASE for $1.50 (I like to call it the rainbow pallete) and 12 Eyeshadow Pallete TRADITIONAL for $1 (this has the color white to dark brown...basically all your neutral colors) I cant wait to use them!!!

also btw these are some items i saw at forever21 and faith21 that are so adorable...

i thought those words could never be spoke

just as a flower in the winter, your time can past with one dear choke

will you be left breathing or swept away for their eyes to see?

will the chance arrive or leave the door locked with no key?

i could ponder about this like forever and on

i can be the failure left all alone

even with these things i can never know

unless i am lead by the One who continues to let me grow

is this where the story ends?

or where another chapter begins?

Life has its many twists and turns so sit back and enjoy the ride:)

Pick Two

Which do you choose for your signifant other????

I choose emotionally stable and intelligent, but hey thats just me:)

Chains

when life is too much

and you feel God is out of touch

think about the chains

and every one of them He has broken you from

just think of the many blessings that came when He broke those chains

if i were you, i would stand strong with my chains

and know that it is just a sign of the success coming your way

(please check her music and

blog out at www.myspace.com/sheiatkins

and sheifaithblog.blogspot.com)

when they came against, who was for you?

when they left you all alone, who comforted you?

when they mistreated you, who came and did right by you?

when they counted you out, who gave you success?

when they made you last, who said you were first?

when problems rose, who had all the answers?

if you havent figured out by now...it is GOD!

God's got your back and He will stand the test of time

im happy to call Him mine:)

Psalm 46:10 (New International Version)
"Be still, and know that I am God

God's Love

I think in order to truly find love, you have to find God first. He is love period. Many times we try to find love and our rescue in the physical things here on earth, but you must first understand the origin and the creator of all things. Right now I just want God to show his love more and more so that everything I am and will be is His will and not my own. To receive that blessing or breakthrough, you have to go back to the origin, the creator, GOD! It is just as simple as that. If you are wondering why this or that hasn't happened for you check your origin. Get back to the One who is and forever will be present in your life. Go back...start reading and studying His word. Its all there for you, but you have to seek Him for yourself. He will give you all the signs and answers through His love.

Ephesians 3:17-19
Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

BTW I made straight A's for Fall Semester 2009 (now holding a 3.67 GPA)...one more semester to go!!! YAY!!!

2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.



This scripture simply speaks for itself. There are no words.

1 Corinthians 13:12
Now we see things imperfectly as in a cloudy mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.

I know that there is someone going through the same things or similar so I have to come from the heart and inspire. You may not know everything right now but its ok you will know when its your time to know. Thats the way God works. He knows when and how we are able to bear and handle certain situations. He knows what we have to go through in order to appreciate what He has in the future for us. Dont let your heart be weary. God got you!!! Just keep praying and believing. He is here for you!

I dont know where this is coming from but I just stumbled across this scripture and I had to share it with you. God knows how to calm my/your doubts and drive away all the fears.

Hello you guys...How are you?? I am bored out of my mind and thinking as always...

I am thinking about the reasons why I need to start living in the moment instead of trying to figure out the future. How can I have a future if I dont live for today? The future has to come from somewhere and I guess thats why God gaves us the "present". I am confused still on alot of things but I am realizing that its alright to stop thinking so much and just live. If you can just imagine being a senior in college with no clue about what's next? If you dont watch out, it will consume you and take over you. I think for me it is the constant remindance of not having that entry level position or creditials for grad school. On top of that, everyone wants to know whats next for me esp. my family. But all I have to say is "idk" and "ive applied to stuff but there has been no luck". So whats a girl to do? Should I sit here and weep or just live for this moment and know things will work out for me. For those of you who have read my blog on a consistent basis know I am simply obsessed with this subject. Its not something that I should ignore but I do need to start living for today and not worry about everyones input on MY future. The economy has really messed it up for newly college graduates but I cant let that get to me or determine my destination. So until then I will continue to pray and hold God in my heart and whatever is whatever.


Romans 8:28
And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.

ListenUP: Kierra Sheard's "Teach Me"

Lord teach me to be like you

I want to be pleasing

I want to trust you

I want to love you

I dont want to be in the way

Oh Lord teach me

Today's Bible Verse

So do not worry about tomorrow;
for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Matthew 6:34 New American Standard Bible

God already has your tomorrow ready for you so make this day a good day. Take one step at a time and let God handle the rest. He only wants what's best for His child, so dont worry but just cast your cares on Him and He will be your refuge. Often times we forget who created us and who was here from the very beginning. You cant out smart God because He knows everything. Dont try to take the easy way out but trust in Him and He will see you through whatever situation you are going through. You are not alone. Someone else has went through the same thing and has made it through by the grace of God, and even if its not the same exact situation someone has been through something similar or more than you. Be thankful God loves you and cares for you.

I was talking to my friend yesterday and we rarely talk nemore especially since we are getting older and living our own lives, but neways we were just casually talking with the "hey how you doing?" and so on and she was telling me about a situation that she is going through and I told her about mines. She told me before I gave my insight that God already got it handled. It is just good to see that we can remain positive and stay strong in these times and we have not forgotten. It really made me feel good how she is handling her situation. People like to sterotype this generation but there are many of us that want what is best and are believers of God.

I hope that I have helped someone today. Remember God knows you and He only wants what is best for you but you have to choose whose side you are leaning on. You cant be parted down the middle. Its either yay or nay.

an old but goodie poem

head is spinning...wish i didnt...dive in but i did...my life my life my life~nicole wray "regrets"



wake up and see the sunshine

wipe the crust and realize

this morning wont be here for long

and soon youll be gone with one dear blow

nobody knows the hour, day, or way

so quit complaining and try another way

life is too short for tears

or disease or any fear

love yourself thats what you and ive been told

never come off too bold

let the story unfold



but how can i precieve and think this way dom

when i see all the hurt and pain and where it is coming from

i dont want to wipe the crust and see the sunshine

i want to be blind cause thats where i find my peace of mind

i wish i didnt know these things they tell me

i just want to be and live free

but nobody understands me

feel me



well you do share some things that are true

but that aint you

and to sit, cry, and worry

well youll continue to be blurry

and the furry thats inside that you remain blind

will continue to build

and what you are will be unlived

now thats the deal...so...now do you feel ?



This is an old poem that I wrote at a time in my life where things were simply confusing and I am in that same state right now but about something different such as my future and what is next. In the poem, I have a hint as to where I should be but I cant say the same for right now in my life...idk yall

there's hope

my heart races faster than my mind can think
while everything lies out of balance

what do I do?
pressure is caused by the ones so dear and precious
so I try to remain unfearful
but Lord knows fear is all that lives here
and courage hasnt knocked at the door once

so again what do I do?
when opportunity for someone else keeps peeping through my window
how can I get him to find the key to the one that shelters me?
and how do I learn to trust this instinct that is telling me to run?
when Im on a freeway with heavy traffic
where's my magic

does prosperity come to those who wait?
or the opposite
because as long as I have been on this swing I should be higher than the mountains
almost hearing the angels singing
so I will stop and come back down to earth
because maybe its just that simple
or maybe not
or maybe just maybe my mind needs time to...think




In these times and at this moment, alot is happening in our world and sometimes we dont take out the time to get to know ourselves and what we really want. Remember that you have to remain in your time and stay prayerful. Your blessing will come, but just calm down and think and let God speak to you. As I type this to you I am also speaking to myself. Its not easy not knowing what lies ahead. I mean like no clue and you have everyone in your ear telling you what and how your life should go because of their past or maybe because they can see your beautiful story unfold. So again take the time to think things through and give yourself time. Im not saying dont take sound advice but really analyze your choices and options. The world is your hands not the other way around.

theres nothing like family...

I know I havent been on here a lil while but I am finally home and have been on the run since I touched down.

Bringing it ALL together!

the wait. (poem)

which way is next?
to the south, east, north, or west
no
neither one of those directions can take me to my destination
or where I want to go
white picket dreams lay in the distance
but will I ever meet my dreams at my reality
pretty smiles and quiet stares lay on their faces
expectations are set too high
how can I really tell the real and the fake?
everything is upside down
confusion is knocking
first at a steady now harder
what do I do?
but wait.....

Question...?: Does anyone know...?

Whether or not JANELLE MONAE has any new music out?

You can get through it...just....
