Many at times,  We are overshadowed by the circumstances and sometimes, We just forget to pray Father, I am discouraged, disappointed, worried, overwhelmed, and burnt-out. I feel downright helpless when life seems to beat me down like this. I know You have not left us and that You are always with us. I ask that You would remind my heart of this beautiful truth: You are not a Father who would abandon us in our trials or in our pain. You are near to the broken-hearted and You have given us the Holy Spirit, the Comforter. You are the help we need when we face various storms in our life. I lift my eyes to the heavens and know that You hear my cries. I trust that even if my circumstances do not change, You are working in my life to use these hard times to change me to look more like Your Son, Jesus. In His name I pray. Amen. Don't be discouraged, Sometimes a moment of prayer not minding the duration but out of sincerity can change the atmosphere and cause peace. DON'T BE DISCOURAGED...

"How am I supposed to trust You When You feel so far away? How can I grow closer to You You gave me so many promises, And none of them have come true. I am still knocking on the door And asking and seeking for You. I thought it was Your desire To fill me with living water, Yet I am still stuck in the mire And thirsting for You, my Father. It has been a whole year, Lord, And I still cannot hear Your Word. I have this terrible growing fear That You will leave me here. God, my faith is so, so thin. My spirit is completely dry. I don't know how all this fits in, And I don't understand the reason why. I hate feeling separated from You And this frustration in my heart. I do not know what to do Or where to even start. Is all my seeking in vain? Am I too confused to find You? The only thing I find is pain And confusion over what I should do. "Ask and you will receive," You said. "Seek and you will find." Lord, all I want is You, my Friend, And peace within my m...

You just feel trapped in a cage..  No one sees it, Not even you.. You don't know what it's made of..  You don't even know where it came from..  but you feel it It feels like, it's all around you..  it is full of strength  that it forbids you to move freely..  it separates you from so many things and it strangles your thoughts..  You feel robbed but, You don't know what was taken..  You're in a place  but you don't know where you're heading next You know you've been through a lot  it is seizing you little by little..  you can't stay but you can't go..  You are trapped but no one sees it..  NOT EVEN YOU..  Dear Sisters, There's this feeling that feels there should be more but you end up realize there's nothing more because, You don't understand how you are feeling Today you are here, Tomorrow you are in another place. It's making your decision making and your desire mix up. Whenever you find yourself in such situations,...

You don’t have to be a hero To relieve an aching heart, To ease the burdens on a shoulder A kind word will make a start. A friendly smile may be all You need to raise the spirits high, A gentle touch upon the arm Can ease a heavy sigh. You don’t have to be a genius To know what words to say, Just being true, Is relief enough for that day. You don’t have to be superman To be strong enough to show How much that you care To make a heart really glow. Any of these suggestions Will encourage and comfort each day That you try to help a loved one And take the pain away.  Dear Sisters, Many people are outside  Helplessly in need of people who can be true friends  Many are with burdens and words from you can either Make or March the person  Don't be among the people, Who doesn't seek for the growth and improvement of others  We need each other to survive!!! *Alokan Temilade Victoria* *Light Lamp*

Some many times, I feel cursed I feel prisoned I feel I'm in a bondage Why? Nothing works for me? Even when I see people that doesn't worth it and I see how things go with you, I wonder why is mine different? Why do I have to live the blame of someone else I don't even think I have the right to myself anymore" Romoke said hurtfully  Breathe in the fresh air,  Put your mind at ease.  Let your eyes wander To all the beauty to be seen.  If those toxic thoughts you still do ponder, Then let out a scream.  Scream until the pain is gone, Until you no longer feel afraid.  Open your eyes to a new dawn, Let the darkness fade.  No longer compare yourself Or your flaws to others' perfections.  Take the negativity off the shelf. Focus on your direction.  Close the door on self-hatred. Never let it back in.  For the lies it would often tell you, You will no longer agree.  Happiness and love are what you should hold onto. They are whom you should...

In every walk you take There will always be a bad day. In every argument you have There might be harsh words When tears kept flowing From failures and disappointments, From sufferings and broken heart, It's okay; no worries. Everyone finds it tough. Even if living is hard, You'll survive and you'll remember How you've fought and not how it hurts. Breathe in the laughter and cherish the tears, For tomorrow may be the best day, And today is only the beginning. Just hang on and keep going. Cry if you must because, For every master is once a disaster, So don't give up. Be brave and believe, For you are strong and you will fight. Be the champion of yourself, For you deserve nothing but the best. Start living today and leave the past behind. Say goodbye to sorrowful tears. Keep going without hesitation. You'll pull it off, just wait and see. One more time, one more try. You'll see the light. Wake up, stand up, and live life! Dear Sisters, Life can be so tough but,...

There's a girl crying alone in her room, Wishing she could disappear from this cursed earth. She fails to see how much she is worth. There's a boy that dreams each night, Hoping to muster the courage to talk to his crush. He's too afraid of all the judging and name calling to approach him, But those people lack to remember he's human just as much. There's a man driving home from work, Praying his wife hasn't discovered his lies. Covering up that one night he made a mistake, He has forgotten we all live under the same sky. There's a woman sitting alone, Thinking of all the times  She's wondering if she'll ever be truly loved by someone, But what she doesn't realize is she's worth so much more. Dear sisters, Don't be mistaken, God sees it all, He is watching over all, Watching with unconditional love and pride. Waiting with open arms to welcome you home, He's hoping you find that you are loved for what's inside beyond the physical. ...

Why did I decide to change the course of my life? I was impatient and naive that I let people take advantage of me. My life has turned up side down, and now it is crashing down. I thought I could find love and hold it,  Blindly I went for it And tried to hold on to someone I thought felt the same But only caused myself heartache and pain. I gave all that I had, my mind and body and soul. For what, only to be told that I was not the one he wanted to hold? That I was just someone he could control. Said he was ashamed to be seen with me. How stupid am I that I cry and cry? Cry out why? Why? Then I am reminded of the choices I had made. Those choices have changed my life completely. I have done this to myself. No one is to blame. I thought if I ignored the pain, The pain would go away and things would change. But I was wrong; things have changed. I do not feel the same. For what was once love has turned to hate. And now I must make my escape" Bimbo said as she educate the sisters. ...

"Why do I find it this hard? I struggle so much yet, I can't do anything to help it I have tried so many times but, It just don't work, I'm tired, what can I do?" So many times I hear people say "We are so busy, And have no time to pray." Yet they can sit, In front of the screen, Texting or playing, You know what I mean. Why is it so hard To set aside time, To find solitude And pray... Why do we struggle With boredom each day? Yet, not bother taking Ten minutes to pray? So many hours Are wasted each week, When we could be praying For the answers we seek. Dear Sisters, Let's make a plan At the start of each day, To make time for God And in that time -Pray You don't have to start in a way you can't end Just make sure you are aligned. Don't force yourself to pray for hour when you can't Start gradually till you find your feet back but, Don't stop praying Prayer works!.  *Alokan Temilade Victoria* *Light Lamp*

This is for all those people Who hide in the dark, For those who feel hopeless, For those with a broken heart. This is for every child and teen Who is trying to flee from their fears, For those who cry themselves to sleep, For those who drown in their tears. This is for people who hide their scars Upon their wrists and their thighs. I want to remind each of you There is a reason you're alive. You are here for a purpose; You are needed in this place. You are special, you are beautiful.  It doesn't matter what size, gender, or race. You are perfect just the way you are. You are priceless, a wonderful new. You are dearly treasured by many. There is no one more important than you.   No matter what you are facing, There's hope in this shallow world and YOU really matter Happy New Month  *Alokan Temilade Victoria* *Light Lamp*
