When you're sad, (A letter to introverts, maybe extroverts too)
THE DEVIL: Can't you see, nobody loves you, even if you die today, nobody will remember you. What's the point of even living? Just go... Go away from them. They're even happy without you...
See them, posting pictures, enjoying life, nobody cares... Too bad.
He continues,
They even call themselves Christians and they can't check up on you. They care about themselves, selfish people. Wicked. If you even die now, won't it be better?
Child of God, if you're not careful, you'll soak in these lies to the very last drops of it... Pain, depression, suicidal thoughts follow.
Let me write this in caps, DON'T GIVE THE DEVIL A CHANCE TO LIE TO YOU.
He won't tell you about your bright tomorrow, he won't remind you of the good times you've had, he won't whisper to you that these sad times won't last, he won't tell you that a time will come that people will bend over and beyond just to have you around them.
All he reminds you, failures, failures, failures. Don't give that guy a chance. When you're down, invite yourself over to the company of others, just stay around them,
It will shock you what dry woods kindled with fire can do to a wet wood. They will not only dry it up, but allow it spark fires too... Only time.
Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 KJV
I had a friend that said their mind, only when telling a joke. They didn't know that I'm God's baby girl and in turn God's paddy. He highlighted the seemingly "meaningless" lines to me as though with a bold marker.
They'd want to express some jealousy, but they'd do it in the form of a joke and for every time they did, I could discern what exactly they intended to say, and that was because I had made a simple but sincere prayer to God.
It went like, "Lord, please I don't want to find myself living Psalm 1:1." God did not only answer my prayer but also gave me the ability to make the right choices and the necessary tools that I needed to do that—The gift of Discernment.
Sometimes, God’s intentionality about us shows in really random things. There are times you have a thought/desire you didn’t even pray about, & you just come across it on your social media or somewhere you weren’t expecting. A God who hears our WORDS and HEARTS. We stan 🙌
There are lovers that listen to every words you utter and grant your desires. Then there’s that lover who not only pays attention to your words, but to your heart too... He listens to every of your unsaid words and satisfies you, how refreshing to know!
The times you craved for shawarma and got it without asking,
The times you needed money and someone just asked for your account number (out of the blues. Lol)
The times you needed a friend and he sent someone to love you... I mean, you remember those times, don’t you?
Sis, You Said No To Him Already, So Why Are You Still Monitoring His Life?
Why are you stalking him, really? Why are you checking his social media to see if he has the picture of another lady? You already said you weren’t interested, so why?
I’m talking to you my dear, why so bothered? Why do you still look out for him at events or gatherings? Oh, I get it, the Bible tells you to be your brother’s keeper, so you’re trying to do your part innit? Lmao!
I’m not done... why does your stomach knot when you see him talking to another lady? What’s the challenge? I mean, the young gentleman met you and spoke to you about his interest, you said no,
