“Anything you want in love you should have. If you want someone to send you flowers just because it’s Tuesday, you should have that. If you want someone to write you love letters, you should have that. If you want someone who looks at you like the sun rises and sets because of you, you should have that. In life, we often have to settle for “okay” or “good enough”, love should not be one of those things.”

This time around I will have everything I deserve.

I hope more Black women learn that we do NOT have to die on every hill. I hope more of us are selective in where we put our energy. I hope more of us become unwavering in our standards. I hope more of us realize that we have options even if we have preferences. I hope more of us realize that a happy, healthy, successful, carefree life can be protest enough. I want to see more of us unapologetically living well. I’m tired of being seen as a mule.

saw a post saying “dont beg men to love you” and thats absolutely true but i have an addition i dont want to add to the post and Derail. but dont beg ANYONE to love you. im serious. not just romantically. not parents, friends, family, and especially not significant others. if you find yourself having to beg for scraps of love its time to pack it up and move on.

Could use some words of encouragement I'm not feeling God's love and I'm losing hope that he'll give me what I've been praying for.❤️

“And there shall be a great cry in all of Egypt, such as there never has been or ever will be again!”

Please remember to respect yourself.

“There’s a difference between knowing God and knowing about God. When you truly know God, you have energy to serve Him, boldness to share Him, and contentment in Him.”

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”

Your heavenly Father knows you have needs to say that you’re His most prized possession, His treasure. Nothing on the earth is more important to Him than you and in turn His number one priority is to help you live your life believing He loves you enough to keep you free from needing anything but more of Him.

Look at the birds! They don’t worry about what to eat—they don’t need to sow or reap or store up food—for your heavenly Father feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than they are. Will all your worries add a single moment to your life?

Matthew 6

It’s a beautiful thing to be able to tell yourself “I don’t have to be strong right now because God is strong.”

Reblog if you’re a Christian..

And it’s okay to message you just to chat.

This is by far one of the best Christian/bible memes I’ve ever seen.

Far too relatable

Same Kiki. Same.

If the bible says it’s a sin then it’s still a sin today and forever. God’s word does not change. Stop changing the word of God to fit your comfort. Stop risking your salvation with an “I feel” spirit. Our feelings deceive us. Romans 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

Don't doubt God's love for you just because you can't see yourself the way he sees you yet.

Eight: Call me old-fashion, but marriage should be about a person aligning forces with a trusted ally to consolidate power and destroy common enemies.

Your'e beautiful. Don't anyone tell you otherwise
