  • This song is beautiful and relatable because I think many times we start to become slaves to what people say about us, what people think of us instead of worrying if God accepts us and how God views us. We can all agree that we have also been hurt by other people, and we are so quick to not want to forgive and carry on us a burden that can be let go by just Forgiving. We can not go to heaven if we don’t forgive others. God also cannot forgive us if we don’t forgive. I appreciate this song, and I think you will too.
  • Kirk Franklin, OK. All of my playlists is full of Kirk Franklin songs. This song is one of my favorite songs. Let me share some of the lyrics with you.….So I’m gonna be OK (Yes sir) I’m gonna be OK (Sing, OK, OK) See I gotta remember That my God is bigger Than any battle I’ll ever face So I’m gonna be OK.
    Alot is going in this world. Basically, this song is just a reminder that it will be OK!
  • William McDowellYou are God Alone. Here are some of the Lyrics; you are not a God created by human hands, you are not God dependent on any mortal man. you are God alone from before time began, you are on your throne you are God alone, and right now in the good times or bad you are on your thrown, you are God alone.
     Nothing catches God by surprise. This song reminds us that there is only one God, and no one else will ever take his place. This song is a good praise and worship song. God doesn’t change. He will forever be God, and the devil is already defeated.

  • Jonathan McReynolds -moving on . I’m just going to leave some of the lyrics right here. It should explain the song and why I love it.
    I know my rear view Can’t compare to What God will do with my life I am forgetting What’s behind me
    I have finally decided I’ll be Movin on I’m movin on  I’m movin on My mother told me She taught me well  Forget your failures. Forgive yourself I’m movin on  I’m movin on  I’m movin on.

  • Travis Greene-Great Jehovah– This is a great worship song if you are looking for new music.
  • Travis Greene-breaker This is one of my favorite song. Here are some of the words: It may not feel good to me but it is good for me To be broken by You Will keep Your hands covering me I’m free when I’m broken by You.

  • In meekness, faith, and endurance, wait, hope, and trust. Your life is hidden with Christ in God. Your life, even now, may be a lesson to all, showing that one can be happy in the failing of strength under affliction. These light afflictions will be a transforming power, refining, purifying, ennobling, and fitting for the courts above ( daughters of God, chapter 21 ) The potter takes the clay and molds it according to his will. He kneads it and works it. He tears it apart and presses it together. He wets it and then dries it. He lets it lie for a while without touching it. When it is perfectly pliable, he continues the work of making of it a vessel. He forms it into shape and on the wheel trims and polishes it. He dries it in the sun and bakes it in the oven. Thus it becomes a vessel fit for use. So the great Master Worker desires to mold and fashion us. And as the clay is in the hands of the potter, so are we to be in His hands. We are not to try to do the work of the potter. Our part is to yield ourselves to be molded by the Master Worker. {HDL 10.1}
  • William McDowell-only you can satisfy. Here are some of the lyrics: If I take what the world has offered I’ll have to come again, again and again With just one drink of his living water I’ll never thirst again, I’ll never thirst again Only You can satisfy my heart, Only You can satisfy my soul, Only You can satisfy my heart, Jesus, Jesus.
    This song is quick reminder that only the presence of Jesus Christ can truly satisfy us.

God’s Timing

It’s good to make plans; it’s good to write down goals, but let us remember that where we are at this very moment in our lives is God’s will for us. We need to learn to be patient with ourselves and with God. Many are dissatisfied with their lifework. It may be that their surroundings are uncongenial; their time is occupied with commonplace work, when they think themselves capable of higher responsibilities; often their efforts seem to them to be unappreciated or fruitless; their future is uncertain. {HDL 11.1} Let us remember that while the work we have to do may not be our choice, it is to be accepted as God’s choice for us. {HDL 11.2} Whether pleasing or unpleasing, we are to do the duty that lies nearest. “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.” Ecclesiastes 9:10. {HDL 11.3}.

Our plans are not always God’s plans. He may see that it is best for us and for His cause to refuse our very best intentions, as He did in the case of David. But of one thing we may be assured, He will bless and use in the advancement of His cause those who sincerely devote themselves and all they have to His glory. If He sees it best not to grant their desires He will counterbalance the refusal by giving them tokens of His love and entrusting to them another service. {HDL 12.1} We are sometimes impatient and instead of going to God and spending time with Him to figure out why He has us where we are and what His plan is for us at this very moment, we instead complain. In His loving care and interest for us, often He who understands us better than we understand ourselves refuses to permit us selfishly to seek the gratification of our own ambition. He does not permit us to pass by the homely but sacred duties that lie next us. Often these duties afford the very training essential to prepare us for a higher work. Often our plans fail that God’s plans for us may succeed. {HDL 12.2}. The best way to be at peace is to pray and read God’s word, the Bible. When we are in a hurry, we tend to go for what God did not plan for us. In the future life, the mysteries that here have annoyed and disappointed us will be made plain. We shall see that our seemingly unanswered prayers and disappointed hopes have been among our greatest blessings {HDL 13.2}. Even if you are unhappy with where you are at the moment, it does not permit you not to work hard. We are to look upon every duty, however humble, as sacred because it is a part of God’s service. Our daily prayer should be, “Lord, help me to do my best. Teach me how to do better work. Give me energy and cheerfulness. Help me to bring into my service the loving ministry of the Saviour.”

Let those who feel that their work is not appreciated, and who crave a position of greater responsibility, consider that “promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the Judge: He putteth down one, and setteth up another.” Psalm 75:6, 7. Every man has his place in the eternal plan of heaven. Whether we fill that place depends upon our own faithfulness in co-operating with God. {HDL 15.2}We need to beware of self-pity. Never indulge the feeling that you are not esteemed as you should be, that your efforts are not appreciated, that your work is too difficult. Let the memory of what Christ has endured for us silence every murmuring thought. We are treated better than was our Lord. “Seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not.” Jeremiah 45:5. The Lord has no place in His work for those who have a greater desire to win the crown than to bear the cross. He wants men who are more intent upon doing their duty than upon receiving their reward—men who are more solicitous for principle than for promotion. {HDL 16.1}If any are qualified for a higher position, the Lord will lay the burden, not alone on them, but on those who have tested them, who know their worth, and who can understandingly urge them forward. It is those who perform faithfully their appointed work day by day, who in God’s own time will hear His call, “Come up higher.” {HDL 17.1}
Be patient with yourself; be patient with God. You will reach your goals, have better days, and have strength for those not-so-good days.

Unpopular Opinion: Coffee is not good for you

Coffee is not good for you. It contains poison and is stimulating to the body. Many people have made it a habit to go and buy coffee in the morning to help them “wake up” when, in reality, it doesn’t do that (guilty!). Coffee is a hurtful indulgence. It temporarily excites the mind to unwanted action, but the after effect is exhaustion, prostration, paralysis of the mental, moral, and physical powers. The mind becomes enervated, and unless through determined effort the habit is overcome, the activity of the brain is permanently lessened. All these nerve irritants are wearing away the life forces, and the restlessness caused by shattered nerves, the impatience, the mental feebleness, become a warring element, antagonizing to spiritual progress. The money expended for tea and coffee is worse than wasted. They do the user only harm, and that continually. Those who use tea, coffee, opium, and alcohol, may sometimes live to an old age, but this fact is no argument in favor of the use of these stimulants. What these persons might have accomplished, but failed to do because of their intemperate habits, Through the use of stimulants, the whole system suffers. The nerves are unbalanced, the liver is morbid in its action, the quality and circulation of the blood are affected, and the skin becomes inactive and sallow. The mind, too, is injured. The immediate influence of these stimulants is to excite the brain to undue activity, only to leave it weaker and less capable of exertion. The after effect is prostration, not only mental and physical, but moral. As a result we see nervous men and women, of unsound judgment and unbalanced mind. They often manifest a hasty, impatient, accusing spirit, viewing the faults of others as through a magnifying glass, and utterly unable to discern their own defects. {CD 422.3}

For those who drink coffee often, it may not be easy to get out of the habit, but it is also not impossible. Try replacing those stimulants with other drinks. Try and wake up earlier and make smoothies or you can make them the night before. You can throw in different fruits and vegetables that are good for energy boosts such as bananas, apple, papaya, and more. Also, I wrote a blog on juicing recipes that helps boost energy (https://heyitsrose.org/2020/06/21/juicing-recipes-for-fatigue/ , Check it out!

Perfume Collection ( part 2)

  • ACQUA DI GIOIA by Giorgio Armani: This perfume is one of the first that I have owned. It has a fresh and airy scent to it. This fragrance is excellent for the spring or summer time. Some of the keynotes in this are jasmine, warm woods, gardenia.
  • Hypnose by LancĂ´me: This fragrance is also a great spring and summer scent. It smells like florals mixed with warm vanilla once it settles into your skin. Its very light and can be worn to work, church and other places. Some of the keynotes in this are passionflower, vanilla, and vetiver. The bottle is beautiful yet simple.
  • Ginger Essence by Origins: This fragrance is different for me. It smells like fresh ginger. It is not long lasting, but it is an excellent everyday fragrance to have and I usually wear it to bed or run errands. I would not mind purchasing it again. It smells like spicy ginger, bergamot and lime, which are also some of the keynotes in it.
  • J’adore by Dior: I’m not sure how to explain this scent. It smells very “perfumy” when you first apply it, but you can smell the florals once it settles. I think this fragrance is good for brunch or a lovely date scent. Some of the keynotes in it are jasmine, tuberose, rose, and vanilla.
  • Women by Calvin Klein: I love this fragrance because it smells lovely and light. I don’t wear it often, but when I do, I remember why I like it. It’s a pleasant fresh floral scent without the florals being overpowering. Some of the keynotes in this are raspberry, lemon, black currant bud, and centifolia rose
  • Euphoria by Calvin Klein: At first, when you spray this perfume, it smells like cologne, as if this fragrance can be unisex. But, once it settles in, it has this warm vanilla, musk, and floral scent(for me lol). It is a lovely fragrance to wear on a night out. Some of the keynotes in this are pomegranate, orchid lotus blossom and, persimmon & more.

Overcoming temptation

Overcoming Temptation - Family Radio 316

The definition of temptation from Dictionary.com is the desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise. Temptation is from our desires and allowing our lustful nature to control us; we become tempted to fulfill those actions. We’ve all been tempted; even Jesus was tempted, and He left us examples on how to overcome temptation. In going into the wilderness, Christ was led by the Spirit of God. He did not invite temptation. He wanted to be alone, that he might contemplate His mission and work. {SJ 43.2} One of the temptations that overcame our first parents was the temptation to indulge appetite. By this long fast Christ was to show that appetite can be brought under control. {SJ 45.1} When Satan first appeared to Christ, he looked like an angel of light. He claimed to be a messenger from Heaven. So we may resist temptation, and overcome Satan. The Lord says to us, “Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you.” James 4:7, 8. {SJ 48.5}.Just as Jesus won the victory over temptation, we can follow his example and do the same. Those who fail to realize their constant dependence upon God will be overcome by temptation (Messages to young people (Chap 40.) The only way to gain victory over temptation is to depend on God. Our strength alone is not enough. Reading the bible and prayer is the sure way to win against temptation. Words cannot describe the peace and joy possessed by him who takes God at His word. Trials do not disturb him, slights do not vex him. Self is crucified. Day by day his duties may become more taxing, his temptations stronger, his trials more severe; but he does not falter; for he receives strength equal to his need. —The Youth’s Instructor, June 26, 1902. {MYP 98.2}. 

Top 10 Women's Bible Studies

When we wake up in the morning and have devotion, we can ask God to give us strength. We can also ask Him for wisdom and spirit of discernment to deal with the challenges and activities for that day. Take it day by day and don’t worry about tomorrow. Beware how you neglect secret prayer and a study of God’s word. These are your weapons against him who is striving to hinder your progress heavenward. The first neglect of prayer and Bible study makes easier the second neglect. The first resistance to the spirit’s pleading prepares the way for the second resistance. Thus, the heart is hardened, and the conscience seared. MYP96.2. On the other hand, every resistance of temptation makes resistance more easy. Every denial of self makes self-denial easier. Every victory gained prepares the way for a fresh victory. Each resistance of temptation, each self-denial, each triumph over sin, is a seed sown unto eternal life. Every unselfish action gives new strength to spirituality. No one can try to be like Christ without growing more noble and more true. {MYP 96.3} . Whatever you are tempted by, even if it seems like you can never stop, I do have good news for you that you can stop!

Spiritual Warfare: 10 Bible verses to help you when Satan attacks ...

Have you ever fell into temptation, and you feel ashamed to pray, or embarrassed to even talk to God? Well, you are not alone! And when you feel that way, pray anyways and rest assure that God is listening, and He cares. When you make a failure, when you are betrayed into sin, do not feel that you cannot pray, that you are not worthy to come before the Lord. “My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” With outstretched arms He waits to welcome the prodigal. Go to Him, and tell Him about your mistakes and failures. Ask Him to strengthen you for fresh endeavor. He will never disappoint you, never abuse your confidence. {MYP 97}. We’ve all been tempted, don’t be discouraged when you are and don’t feel like you are the only one. Ask for support, read the bible, and pray. If you pray once a day and are still fighting the same temptations, then pray twice a day, if you are still struggling, pray three times a day (message to self). Beware of desperate steps; the darkest day, wait but tomorrow, will have passed away.” “In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength.” Christ knows the strength of your temptations and the strength of your power to resist. His hand is always stretched out in pitying tenderness to every suffering child. To the tempted, discouraged one he says, Child for whom I suffered and died, cannot you trust Me? “As thy days, so shall thy strength be.” {MYP )

Words of encouragement: 

Trial will come to you. Thus the Lord polishes the roughness from your character. Do not murmur. You make the trial harder by repining. Honor God by cheerful submission. Patiently endure the pressure. Even though a wrong is done you, keep the love of God in the heart. “Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and His ears are open unto their cry.” {MYP 97.2}

Have you ever watched a hawk in pursuit of a timid dove? Instinct has taught the dove that in order for the hawk to seize his prey, he must gain a loftier flight than his victim. So she rises higher and still higher in the blue dome of heaven, ever pursued by the hawk, which is seeking to obtain the advantage. But in vain. The dove is safe as long as she allows nothing to stop her I n her flight, or draw her earthward; but let her once falter, and take a lower flight, and her watchful enemy will swoop down upon his victim. Again and again have we watched this scene with almost breathless interest, all our sympathies with the little dove. How sad we should have felt to see it fall a victim to the cruel hawk! {MYP 103.2}

Faith will increase if, when brought in conflict with doubts and obstacles, it overcomes them. True sanctification is progressive. If you are growing in grace and the knowledge of Jesus Christ, you will improve every privilege and opportunity to gain more knowledge of the life and character of Christ. {MYP 121.2}
