A grudge

Christianity is all about forgiveness. God can only forgive us as much as we have forgiven others. If we have something against someone, we need to leave our gift at the altar and settle it with our brother. Also, don't forget the parable of the servant who did not forgive the debt of his fellow servant when the master had forgiven him all his debts.


The Bible tells us that he who does not love his brother does not know God and the Love of God is not in him. 1 John 4:7-21


Love is not a feeling. It is a choice. Forgiveness is a choice, not a feeling. First choose to forgive, and if necessary, speak it forth aloud to the Lord that you forgive your brother. This will help. And how you feel about it will come later .

Previously "forced" to get baptized and speak in tongues?

For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." What probably should have been done is to first share with you the main reason for baptism. John 1:4-5 "John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, ...

Racism and all

Racism is real. Was hit so hard lately that I changed both my profile pic and cover photo on Facebook. I can't do business or ministry on social media without hiding my face and race, unfortunately... Even when I wrote a book, I didn't put my picture and definitely did not disclose my ethnicity, nationality or even age. Given a choice, I would even hide the fact that I am a woman and go by an alias or my last name, like J K Rowling.  And if my grammar was incorrect in parts of my speech or posts... That's a giveaway.

Oreo Method: Delegating to Kids

Two ways to do it -- I call this the Oreo Method: you either eat the cookies or the cream: Cookie Method If you aren't in a hurry that day, the kids routinely do the tasks they're worst at until they 'graduate' from doing that task -- you're happy with the standards they're achieving for that task. This can go on for months. Cream Method Or when you're in a hurry: the other way around -- the kids do the chores they're the best at and the house gets put in order quickly.
