Giving up on the world


Is there someone out there who can stand up proudly and day that they have never once felt like giving up on life? If you are one such person I applaud you for never feeling defeated and like you
were placed on this earth to continually feel pain.  Have you ever took a moment to drown yourself in your sorrows and reflect on the sacrifices that you've made in life and how people look at you like you've never done a thing for them? How about falling deeply in love with someone and they get up one day and walk away from you simply because they feel like it? This world is a beautiful place but it's filled with a lot of dirty people dressed in clean clothes and attractive bodies.

The concept of perfection has moved away from just looks to people looking for absolute perfection in a partner. Nothing is wrong with having standards but ask yourself if what you are demanding someone else to have you can attain yourself. If you can't why would you think it would be so easy for them to have that quality?

I've always been the type to believe in potential and admire a man who has plans for his future. A man who isn't there yet but who works on himself each and everyday in hopes of one day getting to where he wants to be. On the other hand we have an increasing number of pretenders coming on the scene. The ones who will sweet talk you into believing that they want the best for you and that they care for you. Be watchful of those who are filled with words but never once come through but tell you to keep believing their words. There is a difference between effort and just lack of care.

This brings me back to the caption of this blog post. Life can be draining from time to time and leave you feeling like it's either life has it out for you or you are just simply unfortunate when it comes to the people who cross your path. It's hard to tell someone to suck it up, be strong and move forward when the same things keep happening over and over no matter how much they evaluate themselves. So I ask you this today, are some people just simply dealt a bad card in life?

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no  conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Be more thankful

It's so easy for us to complain it's like we do it everyday. Are we more thankful for the blessings we have no matter how small they seem? It seems to me that more than ever people are more ungrateful than they are grateful. No matter how bad things are always remember that they could be much worse. Our house isn't big so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a house. Our pay cheque is small so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a job. Our skin isn't flawless so we complain instead of be thankful that we still have our skin to protect our bodies. Our body isn't sculpted perfectly so we complain instead of being thankful that all our body parts are still functioning. Our world is very ungrateful and we can never seem to be satisfied no matter how many blessings we have. This week I ask of you to be thankful for something everyday no matter how small it may seem.

This World

  A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look...
