Me… Prideful?

I’ve been studying pride for several weeks and it’s quite interesting. Of course, I’ve heard the term “God hates pride”, but it never mattered to me because I was too proud to care. 🙂

Besides, pride couldn’t be as bad as adultery, fornication; murder… it’s just a human emotion, right.

Wrong?

Proverbs 8:13 says pride is evil and Proverbs 11:2 says that pride will cause you to fall flat on your face.

This study has been eye-opening for me. Here’s my definition: PRIDE is telling GOD… hey I’m such hot stuff… I don’t really need YOUR help. I can do it alone.

Scary thought isn’t it?

Examine yourself. Are you walking in pride in any area of your life?

Tell me about it.

I’m praying for you.

A Year of Moving Forward

Let’s try something different.

As you know, this time of year everyone is setting goals, looking forward, and making resolutions.

Well today’s blog is not about that.

I want to talk about finishing.

Finishing strong.

So let’s pretend it’s actually December 31st. I know it can be a stretch but it’ll be worth it. I won’t tell you this year will be easy. Nor will I tell you that if you set your goals and work hard, you’ll feel great on December 31st.

Here’s what I can tell you: YOU ARE NOT STUCK!

God loves you and because of His love for you, he designed you to win and succeed at whatever you put your mind to.

So when things get tough and you feel like giving up this year… remember to KEEP MOVING… Move. Move. Move.

More to come!

I love you and I believe in you.

Your Sister,

Kimyetta

Do I See an “F” in Marriage?

2 Comments on Do I See an “F” in Marriage?

My husband and I are at an interesting place. We’ve been married for 11 years and we have three small children and A LOT of external factors surrounding us right now.

Some days we’re mushy eyed at each other and other days… uuuhhhhmmm… we’re simply not.

I know engaged and newly married couples don’t believe it… trust me. 🙂

Some days we can talk for hours and other days we’re in separate spaces. That’s reality folks.
In order to have a great marriage, we have to FIGHT for it. It won’t happen because we love each other. Nor will it happen because we’re good companions.
Every day, we have to FIGHT through any emotions, animosity, hurt, fatigue or simply sameness in order to keep our marriage alive.

Our emotions should never dictate how we treat each other. We have to live out the Bible in our marriage regardless of how we feeeeeeeeeeeeelllll at the moment.

I know it’s hard, but it’s a part of the fight!

Keep pressing…

When You Don’t Feel Like It

No Comments on When You Don’t Feel Like It

Most people who know me would describe me as a pretty loud, talkative, A-type personality. 🙂 However, believe it or not, I have my moments when I just don’t feel like doing ANYTHING.

Trust me when I tell you… anything means anything. With three small children under the age of seven, I’m not in a stage where I can really “take off” to do nothing.

So what do I do when I don’t feel up to the challenges of the day. It’s simple: I do “it” anyway. Now, I may do “it” quieter and slower, but I always get “it” done.

WHY?

The world is moving and I’m not getting any younger… so my temporary slothfulness can’t get in the way of my purpose and passion. I’m actually ending this post now because… you guessed it… I didn’t feel like writing today, but I did “it” anyway!

The journey continues my friends! It continues…

Pray for me! 🙂
