Free

-

I have two places that I love to be in the whole entire world and one of them is on the golf course in the spring time. I love it because I can smell the fresh magnolia trees and the grass is really green and the sun shines brighter than ever. I feel so FREE. Golf is my escape its where I feel the most myself and I get a lot done thinking wise on the course, sometimes I allow God to talk to me there. I thank him for all the beauty that he has created especially in that very moment because I am undeniably happy with the blessings that he has given me. 

Where is your favorite place to be FREE? 
It may be your hammock, on your couch, or even in the world of your favorite novel. Wherever it is do you allow God to talk to you there? Do you give God his time?  You don't have to just talk to God on Sunday when you attend church, or when you say your prayers...sometimes he just likes to hear your voice. 

Real moment...
I'm really bad about calling home. When I say bad I mean extremely bad, my mom sometimes calls with her "haven't talked to you in awhile" voice making me feel extremely bad for not doing better. I know how easy it is to get caught up in what you feel like is more important than calling home.

Walk with me here...
Think of God as home. He may not say it to you directly that he wants to here from you but the best FREE feeling that you can experience as a Christian is that time that you spend with God. I'm not forcing anyone to do anything but if you will just carve out some type of time daily to sit with God and talk to him about how you are feeling...great things will be in store. 

You deserve that FREE feeling that I get on the golf course, and the feeling that I get talking to God. Remember that God loves you more than anything and he desires that time with you but he's not going to force it on you. He loves you too much for that. 

Signing off for another week

Peace and Blessings,
Creseida

Something BIG

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: (Philippians 2:3-5)  What have you done for someone else lately? Like really stop and look at the last few days of your life... What have you done for someone else? Okay if you have some something for someone else have you done it for the right reasons?  People really only purely live to make good impressions. Rarely in a society like today's does a person do something just because they want to be sweet. Paul writes asking the Philippians to love one another and be one in spirit and purpose... It's simple when we work together caring for one another we demonstrate Christ's example of putting others first it's a symbol of unity.  Think about Jesus... He was so humble. Willing so many times to give up his own rig...

Pressure

“You can’t skip experiences, the experiences will be will be what they will be…It’s just what God does”   It’s just what God does? If someone had told me a year ago that pain, pressure, persistence were a part of my journey I would have flat out laughed at them . You see I have always been the person that does not handle stress well (if you are close to me in life you call me dramatic daily). I overanalyze everything to the point where it makes me doubt myself and who God is.  However I have been meditating on this thought “What if pressure creates purpose?” Somebody just skimmed over this so I am going to repeat it  What if pressure created purpose? When God takes us through the journey, different ingredients create ultimate success. If you stay frustrated with the process while creating your masterpiece you begin to miss the need to be present. How Creseida? How am I missing it? Because homeboy and homegirl you have the chance to let your situation speak life into someo...

This too shall pass...

This too shall pass... “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9) So this last month has been a season where the enemy has really tried to take control of my life. I had to deal with a lot of emotions that were brand new to me. The hardest part during this time was trusting God to prevail. I had to really learn about GRACE and having a heart of FORGIVENESS . God is so awesome y'all because he spoke to me even in this trying time in my life not only through his word but through his people.   This text from Corinthians is so amazing because it reminds me how strong God is and how he doesn't care how weak we think we are because his power is always going to be on display. We have to place ourselves in a position to rely on God for our effectiveness rather than ourselves. When we admit that we are so weak that we can't do it on our own then it affirms God's strength.  So recently I was talking with a friend about life a...
