Why I Believe Kamala Harris Lost the Election to Donald Trump

Image
I believe this election was partially lost because Joe Biden was pushed out the race due to fear. It might not have been the reason for all the voters, but I think whether voters and those who decided to sit this election out were aware of it or not, President Joe Biden being pushed out was a contributing factor, because some people were hurt by it, felt like he was disrespected, and they felt like their pick for president was taken from them.   Some of the leaders of the Democratic Party pushed Biden out by expressing their concerns about his age and the lackluster performance at the debate, some donors threatened to withhold money to Joe Biden's campaign, and some of the media continually talked about Joe Biden's age before and after the debate and the debate performance.  Did you see Joe Biden days after the election when he gave a speech? Click here if you haven't and want to see it. As you can see nothing was wrong with him. It was said that Biden performed the way ...

How To Tell If You Have Forgiven Someone?

Image
                                                                                                      You have forgiven someone if you don't feel like you need revenge, or your need to handle the situation yourself is gone. When I heard Tony Evans express this, I knew this was true from my own experiences, because this is how I use to evaluate if I have forgiven or gotten over an ex-boyfriend. I would gauge if I wanted them to feel the pain that I felt. If I didn't want them to hurt the way they made me hurt, I felt like I knew I had forgiven them.  I know what some of you may be asking in your mind... Did you get revenge on the ex-boyfriends who hurt you? The answer is, NO! Now, I ...

Can God Choose a Spouse for Us?

Image
  Y es, God can choose a spouse for you. There are eight examples in the Bible that I was reading about on how God brought couples together that include: Adam and Eve (see Genesis 2:4-25), Isaac and Rebekah (see Genesis 24), Jacob and Rachel (see Genesis 29:1-30),  Moses and Zipporah (see Exodus 2:11-25),  Samson's marriage to the Philistine woman (see Judges 14),  Ruth and Boaz (see the book of Ruth),  Esther and King Xerxes (see Esther 2:1-18), and Hosea and Gomer (see Hosea 1:1-11).  I was looking at these stories to get some insight about God choosing a mate for us and I believe God showed me how everyone's stories were different but there were some similarities that we can learn from.  For example, if we look in the Bible under Genesis 2:18, God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone, I will make a helper suitable for him." So, He prepared Eve and brought her to Adam as a helpmate .  Other similar examples of God bringing a spouse to...

How to Choose a Friend?

Image
                                                                                                      You should choose friends by asking God to choose your friends for you. The Bible tells us not to be joined together with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14-17); although we need to love and do right by all people, we need to be careful with who we are friends with. In order to determine if someone is a decent person, pay attention to their fruit, or their character. Whatever is stored up in their heart will show itself outwardly. (Luke 6:43-45). If a potential friend comes into your life, evaluate the person's character and spirit with the following fruits of the spirit found in Galatians ...

Who Should You Trust?

Image
                                                                                               Trust is to be completely dependent on someone and to know they will always do what is right.  The Bible tells us that we should only put our trust in God. It is not wise to trust ourselves, other people including friends, family, lovers, and even those in high positions (see Proverbs 28:26, Micah 7:5, and Psalm 118:9, 146:3). You don't believe me?  Here are just a few examples from the Bible: Adam and Eve betrayed themselves and God when they allowed the serpent to convince them to eat from the exact tree God directly told them not to eat from.  God had just rescued the Hebrews from slavery and sho...

                                                               "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:6&7). Steps to take when you are stressed: 1.   Pray - Prayer is talking and listening to God. Talk through your situation with God in a detailed conversation.
