so please…

if the world is telling you that singleness is a curse...

Please, you don't have to be on your knees just to find someone who values you. Please, you don't have to be on your knees just waiting and wanting to control the prophecy. It takes courage to let go and not hold onto everything that comes your way, it takes courage not to go ahead on the future and trust each day that comes. What if I told you that it takes courage to let go and not withhold anything that passes into your hand? What if one were to consider that each choice has its consequences, and that bravery is required to make the right and wise decisions? 

Please, you don't have to be on your knees cursing the fate for not meeting your soulmate. Please, you don't have to be on your knees spending your nights finding faults and imperfections for being you. It's okay to wander and cry at times and feel all your emotions because even the strongest woman stumble in deep hole of loneliness when the darkness of the night visit her.

But have you ever considered the beauty of embarking on your journey, for standing still even without a prince on your side? Life is full of seasons, each with its own set of challenges and opportunities. But just as the seasons come and go, so do our struggles. What if I told you that by surrendering your fears, anxieties, and worries to Him, you can experience His presence in ways you never thought possible? And you can be on your knees because in Him you are deeply loved and fully seen as a woman.

it might be a season or it might be a calling so you can pursue what He calls you to do in your current season, take heart!

Inside the battlefield (Marawi Siege)

    Cold bodies scattered around, stained blood,  abolished houses and buildings, burned vehicles, traumatized children, destitute women, fainted men, and wounded soldiers. Mumbled cries of people in the beat of loud bombs echoed throughout the whole city.     A devastated land began to shrink in the middle of one nation. People were in […]
