Be Faithful During Your Storm!

Posted on by SHY


I remember back in 2010 when I was in a situation where I was fed up. I was so frustrated and was at my wit’s end. I remember talking to one of my best friends Keitaya literally in tears. I explain to her everything that was going on. I told her because of this situation I had to drop out of school. It was very bad. Although no one around me actually knew that because I put on a smile when everyone saw me. At the end I said” I have to leave here” and I knew if I stayed I wouldn’t bring my best to the table. After I pour my frustrations out on her she later gave me a scripture. 

DANIEL 10:12 NIV. THEN HE CONTINUED , DO NOT BE AFRAID, DANIEL. SINCE THE FIRST DAY THAT YOU SET YOUR MIND TO GAIN UNDERSTANDING, AND TO HUMBLE YOURSELF BEFORE YOUR GOD, YOUR WORDS WERE HEARD AND I HAVE COME IN RESPONSE TO THEM.

That scripture spoke to my soul. It reassure me that my prayer had been heard and now it time to wait on God. After she gave me that scripture I typed it up, printed it out and put it on the busiest place in my home…the fridge door lol. From that point on I stop complaining even though I was still hurting. I would leave physically and emotionally spent every time I walked in the door at home. However,I still remain faithful. I still did everything that was required of me not just because I knew in my spirit I was leaving I did because I should.  I truly believed that is why in a few months time after getting that scripture I received a notice that I was being released and will be soon leaving. On that day I jumped for joy. I knew it was nothing but God and me being faithful during my storm. I encourage anyone who are going through similar circumstances to remain FAITHFUL.  God looks for that. 

MATTHEW 25:23 NIV HIS MASTER REPLIED ” WELL DONE, GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT! YOU HAVE BEEN FAITHFUL WITH A FEW THINGS, I WILL PUT YOU IN CHARGE OF MANY THINGS. COME AND SHARE YOUR MASTER’S HAPPINESS!’

 

That experience showed in many ways that God does hear our prayers he is just waiting to see if you will remain faithful to him and other things until he blesses you with more.  Be encouraged my loves as well as faithful.

 

Sincerely,

Shyla

 

Time Waits For No One!!!!

Hello there love bugs. It has been over a year and a half since I have written anything on the blog.

I will say a lot has happen since then. One that tops the list is my angel, my heart my everything,

my mommy passed away late October. In time I will blog about that whole deal but right now its

just to hurtful. Now what prompt me to write this was social media. You got that right.

The Facebook or what we call it now just “Facebook”. Facebook now has this awesome app or tool

where it shows you what you may have written or posted on that day years ago.I actually love it.

It showed me my thought process in the past. I could look at an old status and knew automatically

what was going on and what I felt when I posted it. So the other day I checked it and I had a post

about one of my favorite shows…Scandal. I I look at it like wow  That was 3 years ago? 

I couldn’t believe it. I was seriously  tripping that had happen 3 years ago and it seemed like

yesterday. When I realize that it was 3 years ago I started to be sad. At that very moment I felt so disappointed in myself.

I let 3 years easily pass me by and I feel I feel like I have nothing to show for it.

I felt like I wasted 3 precious years making sure I was all caught on my television shows.                                                  

SERIOUSLY HOW DID I LET 3 YEARS PASS ME BY WITHOUT ACCOMPLISHING ANYTHING SIGNIFICANT!!!!

Now I  have grown mentally and spiritually but others things I wanted to do I havent even attempted to complete. My educationally goals for one. I have one degree  but my desire is to obtain at least 2 more. When I kept thinking I truly realize that  …………………….                                            

                                                   TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE!!!!!

If any of you want to do something in life strive to make it happened.

It’s good to wait to everything to line up but what if it never does and you never tried and look back with regret.

When you tried and failed you can at least say to yourself that I went after it and it didn’t work out.

Today I am going after everything I want out of life. The career, the education…all the goals I set for myself years ago I going after it now.

I hope each of you do the same. It time to claim what is OURS!!!!!  

Sincerely,

Shyla
