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

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:)

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
