Good Afternoon, My Fellow Kings, and Queens 

So... um, I know what I said yesterday, however, God has other plans for me even though I would rather disappear from everything for a bit and allow myself to find a bit of peace & sobriety in chaos, away from everybody and anybody. 

But as always, no matter how I try to run and hide from God, he always somehow finds me and brings me right back to him, no matter how far I think I am from him or want to be. Whether it be through the music I listen to and discover or the good morning texts my mom sends me every day. Nothing I or you do can separate us from God, especially those called to be something, who think they are nothing unaware of the protection and favor God has bestowed upon their lives. 

So while I do feel unworthy and a hypocrite to preach the gospel and try to tell everybody about somebody who can save anybody, I must remember that my feelings and current situation shouldn't dictate whether I'm saved or if it's worthy to help somebody who may be in my same situation as I gain a bit of encouragement and reassurance in a time when they feel like God wouldn't want anything to do with them. 

I base this on a verse I heard from Steven Furtick, which I completely forgot about as sin causes me to operate on a frequency that is more negative than positive and more destructive than creative, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." (Romans 8:1-2) 

And I am only saying this because not too long ago when asking God to bless the breakfast my mom made through prayer, I also asked God for forgiveness which then turned into a venting session of me just crying out to him for help. So repent and cast all your cares upon him and do not allow the nudge on your heart to disappear one day due to feelings born from a place of defeat rather than victory. 

For if there is still breath in your body there is still a chance to try again and come out stronger than ever before so do not give up, for while you may fall seven times if you can get back you still have a fighting chance. And I know that is weird to hear from someone who recently fell back into sin yet right afterward crawled right back to God because sadly while the world may seem pleasing, I cannot survive without God considering if it was not for him, I would not be here. 

So, my best advice would be to find a community of Christians who truly fear and love God, not just with their lips but their actions as well. Oh, and I would recommend listening to "Victory" by Brenda Waters, "Stop Blaming & Start Healing" by Steven Furtick, and the video I linked at the bottom in case you need a bit of encouragement, this Sunday afternoon. 

And I will see you all next time, God Bless! ✌️❤️
