Buckleys

Who likes Buckley or taking bad tasting medicine like raw aloe? Well if you do hats 
of to you cuz I sure don't. As a child my mom always had to struggle with 
me when it came down to getting me to take medicine, specially if it tasted bad. 
Even now as an adult she still has lil struggles with me lol. Ah I love my mom! She 
would be like" here take this, its gonna make you feel better or help prevent you 
from getting sick. Some times she would bribe me with McDonald and ice cream
(was and still is a greedy child lol) and it would work sometimes lol. Oh k am 
deviating from what I was beginning to say lol.
"Buckleys, it taste bad but it works" that's Buckley logo but now they have this new commercial (well its new to me) that shows people from different ages taking 
the buckleys medicine and making some serious funny faces cuz it taste bad lol. 
Well anyway night before last I was watching TV and was worrying about 
something. I was like "God I know you know my situation and that I should not be 
worrying about it but its consuming my thoughts" Well the situation was not in my 
thoughts until that day because it was getting closer to its deadline. Well anyway 
Buckleys commercial was on and its new jiggle is "Don't worry its gonna be alright" 
I was like wow God thanks. God was speaking to me through the buckelys 
commercial lol. Its like the bad tasting part of the buckleys is my processing or 
trial or me showing patience and the good part of the buckleys that helps with 
sickness is my reward for going through or enduring that bad taste. I look at it as 
if God is gonna work in me and for me I have to be patient and taste 
some "bitterness" in order to get the "sweetness" 
I ain't ga lie but its hard, but its stupid for me to even think of it hard because 
over and over and over ...again God has provided for me no matter what. I 
guess my human tendencies will always come up to work against what God has 
already promised me. Sometimes we want things on our time but God works on 
his time, the time he thinks its best and truly needed. I guess it all plays apart of 
self wanting to be satisfied right away. OOrighty then starting to be an emotional 
wreck here lol(not really,just slightly) 

Thank U God for always being here for me and for being my every thing. By Gods grace am gonna drink that buckleys with eyes wide open and with a smile(lol). NO matter what happens I know that I serve a just and faithful God. So folks thats my word words (lol) of encouragement or motivation hum hopefully anything good lol. 

Blood diamond

This is an old note I have on facebook...

I recently watch Blood diamond couple nights ago and I must say am really impressed with its contents. They should have won for best movie. If u haven't watched it as yet, am gonna advise that u do and stop reading this note cuz I don't wanna spoil it for u. Oh if u can't handle seeing alot of ppl dying don't watch it.
Anyway the movies take place in some where in Sierra Leone, Africa and is basically about diamonds being obtain at any cost, even the cost of life, hence the name "blood diamond". So anyway this guy name Solomon and his family had basically kinda a good life. Ya know wife doing good kids nice n healthy etc. Until one faithful day he and his family were dealt a bad card. On that day rebels attacked his camp, started killing people for fun and then kidnapped him. His family got away. So Solomon was taken away to work in a diamond mine. Rebels financed the purchase of weapons with illicit diamonds extracted from mines they controlled. One day while working in the mine Solomon found a nice pink diamond. Long story short he hid the diamond, son kidnapped by rebel crew and turn into a child soldier, family in refugee camp but at the end he used that diamond to get his family into London and he also end up getting some cash along with that.

I used blood diamond as an analogy to lets say being a christian or life itself. You know ur living ur life hassle free no trials but then out of nowhere ur hit with a disaster and ur whole world is turned upside down. But during that process u hold on and find a diamond, lets say u find that diamond inside of u( strength, courage, hope etc) and on the outside ur rewarded for enduring( lets say school, gotta work hard to get those grades and go through alot of crap while in uni. but hey at the end u get ur degree). See trials come to test how strong we are, they come in a way to "critique" our character.

In the movie Solomon kept fighting and was persistent  he was motivated by his family, they were in a sense his source of strength. So question to ask, what is your motivation?? who or what is the source of your strength??

Nothing in life is ever easy and there is always a price to be paid. Are you willing to pay the price??
