I don't know about you, but I love reading Proverbs 31. It gives these amazing attributes of what a wife of noble character is like. It's a checklist for women and a search-list for men.

Basketball is one of my favorite sports to play. I haven't played in quite a while, I'm a little too old to play. Yes, I may be in my mid-twenties but I'm telling you, your girl's joints, muscles and bones are not like what they used to be in high school.

Remember when everyone used to do trust falls? 

Have you ever noticed when pressure is applied to a wounded or painful area, it stops it? When you're in pain perhaps in your back, your stomach maybe your leg, wouldn't you grab it and apply pressure? How about a headache? Have you ever applied pressure to your temples and your headache began to slowly cease tension? Think of about someone who was bleeding out. What do paramedics usually do?

I stared at the blinking insertion line trying to figure out how to write this because, to be honest with you, I'm struggling with this myself.

God can bring you to a place that is dead to speak through you to bring something back to life. Could be a friendship, a family member, a relationship, a marriage. God can turn anything and everything around with a word. In Genesis 1:1, yes, the beginning, remember when God spoke a few words, ""let there be light," and you know what happened? Boom! There was light. 

I don't know about you, but I've been feeling tired. Extremely tired. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. Spiritually.

Ah, yes. Faith. 

Concentrating is one of the most difficult things to do nowadays. With all the worldly distractions, can anyone ever focus on what's important? 

Growing up, I remember the days of struggling to buy things.

There is nothing like losing someone you care about and you just want to see them again. 

Since we discussed on concentrating, I'd like to talk about consecrating. I feel as though concentrating and consecrating go hand in hand and are much alike. First let's know the definition of consecrate. Consecrating is to make or declare sacred, to set apart, dedicate or devote to the service and worship of God (av1611.com).

Hey peeps! It's been a long time since I posted!

*sigh* 

Hey peeps!

Everyone has dealt with some kind of health problem or have seen someone they're close to deal with a health issue. Health obstacles are usually unexpected, unpredictable, and unpleasant. No one asks for them, and if they do, they'll wish they never had. 

Hey peeps!

“Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.”‭‭-Proverbs‬ ‭31‬:‭11‬-‭12‬ ‭NLT‬‬

My friend, I cannot lie to you. It's been a rollercoaster for me for the past month. A little after releasing my first book, I know God led me to write, I felt an immediate slap of opposition and resistance against me. The battles were spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. It was as if I lost every bit of strength and drive to get up and continue. 

I remember when I was a kid, I used to get allowance. One day my brother had gotten a $50 dollar bill for his allowance, and I had $20. He asked if we I wanted to trade him. Now that I am older, I believe he was just teasing me.

"I'm going to be married by 18. We'll have a big house. A big family, with many kids. My husband will be working his dream job. I'll be taking care of the kids and working my dream career.....so on....so on....and so on...." 

"...strip off every weight that slows us down..."

Revival. 

"For when I am weak, then I am strong."

If you haven't read my book When The Pressure Is On: Dating, I'll give you a little insight of a point I made about myself. I can be impatient, especially when it comes to traffic. Don't get me started. Long story short, if you are a slow driver please move to the right or stay home. 

My sweet dear grandmother loved having a garden. She'd take me almost every morning, at least it felt like every morning, to K-Mart to go buy more flowers, plants, seeds and soil. This woman loved the fresh smell of nature.

I've been realizing and learning with God that I have hid the real Tiffany for some time now. I've been apologetic for being myself without even noticing. I've let others make decisions for me. I've let others snatch the pen out of my Gods hands and write my story. Just like many others do as well.

What's wrong with me?

How can we retain physical growth if we're not willing to seek and retain spiritual growth? There has to be a willing mindset and wholehearted love in the Lord to accept His challenging spiritual growth in us. It won't be easy, but like He says in Proverbs 27:17, "As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend." We are to be the body of Christ, but if the body of Christ has no strong endurance in spiritual growth, the body is weak then. The church is weak then. Sharpening, which is one of many steps for spiritual growth, isn't the greatest feeling, but it's what builds a spiritually functional and strong body.

”For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.“‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭12‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Hey y'all! I haven't been on here in a while. Sorry about that! 

12 Years Ago…. I died.
