Crush Series is Cancelled!



Before you react and say I've lost my mind, I want you to know that, in light of yesterday's post, I have decided to cancel my series looking at how I'm coping with my crush.

Yes, I know I've been here before, but last night was a real eye-opener to me as Ps. Steven's message helped me to realise that in breathing life into it, I was giving it a more prominent position in my life...

Coming Back to Where it All Started

And God said, “I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain.” Exodus 3:12 (NIV) emphasis added

Hello everyone!

Around an hour or so ago, I finished pushing into another encounter with God in light of recent revelations that I've been blatantly making towards my c... nope, you're not going to hear me talk about it so much anymore!

Why?

It has on the one hand done me a favour in freeing me up to talk about it, but on the other hand, I started to see, thanks to a message from Elevation Church that I watched tonight, it was slowly creeping its way onto the throne of my heart, somewhere God should have been all along...

60 Seconds of Faith - Episode #0042

Hello everyone!

I must admit, that I've been enjoying writing so frequently upon my blog these days that I'm going to keep trying to churn out the content for as long as I can!

I'm sure you're all getting your fits and giggles in as I express my own disappointments because of how I feel about a certain person yet so far, seem incapable of expressing my feelings to her! :-P

Happens To Be On the Other Side (By Crush, By Design IV)

FYI: I don't normally take requests for content for my blog, precisely because it is my blog. However, Sunday I decided to make an exception to that rule because of the nature of a suggestion made by a friend of mine.

Peter, thank you, my good buddy! ;-) - TLP

And so, another series of postings comes to an end!

I hope you have all enjoyed this because this has been a challenge for me to write!

In closing today, I want to encourage you that your problems need never ever define you, no matter what other people say!

I've been told to "let go", to "give up" and "move on", when it comes to my crush, but if I had followed those instructions then I would not have experienced what I experienced on Tuesday...

Something to Rely On (By Crush, By Design III)

FYI: I don't normally take requests for content for my blog, precisely because it is my blog. However, Sunday I decided to make an exception to that rule because of the nature of a suggestion made by a friend of mine.

Peter, thank you, my good buddy! ;-) - TLP

Oh how appropriate, how relevant is this title after last night!

I went to our Young Adults' Belonging, a gathering designed to better allow our younger generation to not only connect with one another, but also to connect with God on a more intimate and personal level.

But do you remember what I said last time about my little "Duck/Goose" experiment? Well it backfired in my own hands no, my own face quite spectacularly...

Hello everyone!

To get this out of the way right off the bat, I'm fully aware that I've tackled the idea that praise begets breakthrough in my "Where Praise Is..." series (ED - which can be found here, here and here FYI), some time ago, which I've just discovered was actually a couple of years ago now, wow!

In it, I was looking at what happens when you set your praise up in the right places versus the wrong ones. This time, however, I want to look at what to do when you don't want to get your praise on...

Welcome to a brand new week everyone!

We're already on day two of another week so as time moves ever onwards, may this week be even greater than the last one for you all. :-)

This week I'm going to be posting pretty much every day as I take a suggestion offered to me yesterday by a good friend of mine and run with it for the next four days...

My Crush is in God's Hands, Not Mine!

Moses answered God, “But why me? What makes you think that I could ever go to Pharaoh and lead the children of Israel out of Egypt? Exodus 3:11 (MSG) emphasis added

Wow!

I could almost get used to this!

The more and more that I am pouring my heart on here about what having a crush is doing to me, the easier it is getting, albeit gradually!

Yes, that's right, this week sees another devotional fused with a life update and it just seems to be the way forward these days, especially now I'm committed to a newer level of openness and honesty...

60 Seconds of Faith - Episode #0041

Hello everyone!

I would not have expected this week to turn out like it has, I can tell you that much and I think back to how I made some definitive claims recently in my three part "Another Breakthrough" series!

To recap, they can be found here, here and here...

Another Breakthrough Part III: I Will Press On & Not Be C-rushed

Hello everyone!

I was originally going to leave my last thought under the heading "Another Breakthrough" as a two-parter, but I couldn't really do that, not when I've got so much to say on this.

I made it clear, recently, that I'm not letting anything (ED - and he means anything!) get in the way of me following my calling for Jesus, not some silly little crush I've got, not anything!

It's as simple as me making sure I'm open, honest & transparent when it comes to what I write on here because I have to consider that all the things that I'm writing have the potential to be read (or not!) by friends and those closest to me...
