Patience




Hello everyone. :)

Lately, I am being impressed with my GREAT need for patience. At this point in my life, I am proactively and prayerfully pursuing different opportunities and am eager for the right door to open...but things do not always happen either at the rate I want them to, at the times I want them to, or in the ways I want them to....and that is okay. What matters is that I am fully surrendered to the Lord, that I am proactively seeking out His will, and that I am choosing to patiently wait on Him.

Here are five beautiful Bible verses on patience.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." 1 Peter 5:6-7 (KJV)https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/1-Peter-Chapter-5/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3."I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning." Psalm 130:5-6 (KJV) https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Psalms-Chapter-130/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. "But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Isaiah-40-31/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD." Lamentations 3:22-26 (KJV) https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Lamentations-3-25/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another thing that I am waiting for, is for the coronavirus pandemic to be over. In the mean time, I see that God is still with His people during this time. How blessed we are to have the wonderful Lord Jesus as our Savior and Friend!

I want to close by sharing a link to a scripture song from Psalm 130 (I quoted a couple verses from this Psalm in # 2 above). I hope that this song will bless you all as it has blessed me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thVWVP_Z9fQ

Take care everyone. :)

Tornado Roll Hair Tutorial

Image
Hello everyone. :) (One important note: I mentioned that I wear a panty hose on my head at night to keep my hair neat. I either tie up the legs or wear a panty hose that has had the legs cut off. I wouldn't want anyone to have the legs end up becoming tied around their necks during their sleep. That doesn't sound safe). In today's video, I am showing you all how to do what I have termed a "tornado roll" on stretched natural African-American hair. This style would not work so well on most freshly washed natural African-American hair. African American hair is generally not washed daily. My definition of stretched hair is the following: natural African-American hair  that has been twisted, braided or put in buns for more than one day and that has then been combed out dry. This style can be done with straight or wavy hair as well. The hair tools that I use in this video are the following: A wide tooth comb A bristle brush A pony tail holder A large jaw clip Bobb

Hello everyone, Today I will be sharing part III of the series I am doing on the Whole Foods Plant-based Diet. Up until now I have not shared any recipes for foods that can be eaten in this diet. I am happy to let my readers know that this diet can be very tasty and delightful. In this part of the series, I will be letting my readers know what some of my favorite dishes have been through the years, and I will be providing links to where you can purchase the cookbooks that contain the recipes for these dishes, if you are interested in trying them. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are vegan versions of very many kinds of foods. There is vegan macaroni and cheese, vegan lasagna, scrambled tofu (a great substitute for scrambled eggs), vegan pizza, vegan cheese and sour cream etc. There is so much out there for vegans to eat. A vegan diet does not have to be a deprived, boring and miserab

The Amazing Benefits of the Whole Foods Plant-based Diet part IV

Image
         Would you be excited if you learned that there is a diet that has been shown to help people to drastically improve, and even reverse, type 2 diabetes and heart disease, and which also makes weight loss tremendously easier? Some medical professionals have come to see that the Whole Foods Plant Based diet can do incredible things for many of their patients: things that conventional medicine struggles to accomplish.  Today I will be sharing some free, online resources that give my readers scientific information on the benefits of the Whole Foods Plant-Based diet for type 2 diabetes and heart disease. I will also be sharing testimonials of people who have overcome obesity on this diet.       What I am sharing isn't a comprehensive ( comprehensive definition ) list of resources on these topics, but I hope that what I am sharing will be food for thought (that sounds like a pun!). As a friendly reminder, I am not a medical professional and what I am sharing is not a substitute fo
