I SEE You!

Was that an accident or did you intend to go out with your bottom showing? Noooooo, I want to believe it's a mistake. Well if you did, can I please give you a few tips on proper attire?


It hasn’t been that long ago when people left the house, especially women, with class. Their hair was styled, their clothes were ironed, their shoes were shined and polished, their clothes did not show any tears or dirt on them, and they smelled nice. (ALL WOMEN ARE NOT BUILT THE SAME, SO WEAR CLOTHES THAT COMPLIMENT YOUR SHAPE)


 As a child, it didn't matter what time of the day, what day of the week, hot or cold; you never saw Mr. Deacon Jenkins in anything else but a suit, white shirt, tie, and hat. (Picture above is not actual person) Now I know many of you are taking this literally. No one would work out in a suit; but there are locker rooms to change once you get there (smile) Or you would not wear a dress and heals to play softball. But to put it in perspective, we should iron our clothes before we put them on; and make sure we will not get noticed for indecent exposure!

Fashion trends come and go and torn jeans are a big trend now; however, it depends where they are torn and how you wear them. For instance, torn around the bottom and your bottom shows ~ Oops! Whew ~ put on a nice pair of stylish leggings underneath them, and wear a nice shirt, put on make-up and sport a cute hair style ~ as shown below


INAPPROPRIATE!

APPROPRIATE!


Proper dress does not have to be uncomfortable or dressed up all the time. Carry yourself with respect and you will receive likewise. After all you are representing God, your family and yourself!

WORK ATTIRE

 But clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah), and make no provision for [indulging] the flesh [put a stop to thinking about the evil cravings of your physical nature] to [gratify its] desires (lusts). Romans 13:14 AMP

Can I "Love" You This Much?

Negative words tear people down and exposes them.  "Every prudent man deals with knowledge, but a [self-confident] fool exposes and flaunts his folly." (Proverbs 13:16 AMPC)  (Folly biblical definition: 2a. : criminally or tragically foolish actions or conduct. b. obsolete : evil, wickedness especially : lewd behavior.) Confronting someone is different than badgering someone! Badgering means to repeatedly pester.  "By pride and insolence comes only contention, but with well-advised is skillful and Godly Wisdom." (Proverbs 13:10 AMPC)  When we lovingly and patiently correct others the response will be peaceful, loving and accepting also; however, words spoken in anger and with the intention to hurt, comes from a malicious and wicked heart. Hurtful words repeatedly play over in a person's mind (like a broken record) of how they don't measure up to the World's standards; therefore putting that person in the forefront of a sure target for Sat...

Do You REALLY Know?

I was in JC Penney a few years ago just browsing and this woman passed me calling a little girl who was in the shoe section to come on, she was ready to leave. The little girl quickly grabbed a specific pair of shoes and walked over to her, pleading for the shoes. Well being social, I commented they were very cute shoes and would look good on her. The Grandmother proceeded with, “She has more than enough shoes at home and although they are cute, we are not buying them”. The little girl begged for a short while and realized she was not going to win this battle, so the shoes went back to the shoe department. As the little girl was leaving, her Grandmother began telling me how she provides for the child quite often and her daughter (the child's Mother) do not have a good relationship. She badly berated her daughter to the point I said in my mind, “God should I pray for this woman”; because from listening to her story, I felt the relationship could not continue is this manner, an...

Order Up!

Now serving ~ “Heartaches and bitter pain of defeat topped with a regard to accept a defeat with a constructive attitude”. Competition is tough and you better compete with a winning attitude or accept being defeated with dignity.  We train for a marathon, we practice daily, if you are on a basketball team, gymnastics team, or the swim team; in addition to the conditioning, training and proper diet that is needed to compete. Other competitions that are not physical take intense studying; whereas, you still have to rest so the brain will retain the knowledge you need to “win”. I was a low hurdler in high school; however, when I was asked to compete in the low hurdles, I did not know how to even jump over them properly.  One day during practice, my older brother was at the track practicing shot put and looked over at me struggling with the hurdles. He came over and gave me some much needed advice. He said, “Gwen, you have to hit ‘em low and take only three step...
