In life we do things that we love and enjoy, and we do it with purpose. We do it to feel and have a since of accomplishment in our lives. We want our family to be proud of us an the things that we do to make us happy, but it is not always like that in families. There are those that will cheer you on, and there are those that will stand at a distance and hate. There are those that will be there for you when you need them, and there are those that will not. There are those that will complain about what you are doing in your life, but doesn’t want to even give a true compliment when you ask them if they are proud of you. They smile and say yes, but all in all they are just saying it to make you feel good as to not hurt your feelings. It is a shame for someone to treat a person like that.

When things like that happen, it is best to never ask a person if they are proud of you because they will lie. I think it is because they do not have the abilities that you have to do what you do, and they are intimidated by your talents. I think it is because they know that what you are doing is profitable; even if not in the beginning when you start, but it will eventually happen. When it does happen they all will be astonished at your accomplishments.

If and when someone asks you if you are proud of them, please be honest. Don’t lie to that person. I look at things like this, we only need God to be proud of us, nothing else matters. As long as God is proud of us and the things we do for Him to bring Him glory is all that matters.

Have you ever had someone make a false assumption about you? Have you ever been made to feel guilty when you know that you are telling the truth? Have you ever felt like your home is a prison instead of a happy place to live? Have you ever been made to feel like you are being put on trial because of what someone else does? Have you ever felt alone even when someone is with you, but it is the person that made you feel the way that you do?

Well do not feel bad because I know about it all to well. I have been going through this all of my life, and I cannot seem to get away from it. I will not feel like I cannot enjoy my life because of an assumption that someone has made about me. I will not isolate myself because of what someone thinks about me. I will not feel like I am in prison in my own home, and can’t enjoy going outside just because of what some one else does. Some people just don’t understand that a person cannot be inside all of the time. See, this is where the devil comes in at. He puts things in the minds of the weak and shallow person because he knows they will believe it. He especially uses jealous people to do his dirty work to steal the joy from a persons heart. He makes things look like what it is not. He whispers untruths into a persons ears and make it sound like the truth. He is a lier, deceiver, killer, destroyer, manipulator, a smooth operator. He is the father of all things untrue. He is a thief! He’s the reason sin is in the world right now!

It is a down right shame when a person believes him, I could name a lot of those who do, but I will not do that. When someone you love believes him over you, that is what hurts the most, No mater how much you tell them the truth, they will not believe you because he has them brainwashed. Stop listening to the lies of the enemy. He comes to steal, kill, and to destroy. If we just pay attention to things, we will see what he is doing when a bad situation arise. We can see that he is trying to cause division in the family, and mostly between a husband and a wife. Sisters and brothers, we cannot let him that stole steal anymore. We must rebuke him and cast him out and send him back from whence he came, and that is the bottomless pit of hell! He is under our feet! He has no authority over us, those of us who belong to God and are called according to His purpose by Christ Jesus. When we have had experiences with the Almighty working in our lives, we have faith enough to know what to do when the enemy tries to attack us, we fight him with the Word of God. The Word of God is our armor. When we stay in the Word of God, the schemes of the enemy cannot harm us, nor touch us, we are fully guarded. We are protected on every side. We have angels fighting for us that we cannot even see. When we pray on our knees, the enemy is afraid. When we pray standing up, the enemy is afraid. When we are relaxing and praying, the enemy is afraid, and when all of God’s children are praying around the world, the enemy is afraid, and when we are praying in the Spirit, the enemy is deathly afraid. When we pray together, we draw strength from each other, and that makes our prayers even more powerful, because where two or three are gathered together in prayer, Jesus is in the midst of us, so the enemy see Jesus standing with us, so therefore he has to flee, and not only that, he see the blood of Jesus dripping all over us. How amazing is that! There is power in the blood of Jesus! The enemy has already been defeated! We have the victory! We Win! Praise God!

It does not matter what people say about us, or how they make false assumptions about us, because God knows us, and He see everything that happens in this world. I just want to thank everyone who follows me, and I want to thank everyone for the comments that you leave on my posts.

I am just thankful that God has made it possible for me to be able to share my writings with everyone, and my voice. When I started out, I did not know I was going to be where am today. When we have faith as a grain of a mustard seed, God will move mountains. He will open up doors that no man can shut. He will pour us out a blessing from heaven that we will not have room enough to contain it. God wants to bless us. He is in the blessing business, and we cannot beat God giving no matter how hard we try. I pray that everyone will continue to stay safe, because we are all in this together. God bless everyone.
