Mental Health Monday

 It’s Mental Health Monday!

Mental Health is often overlooked and even ignored- especially in many minority households. We must get in the practice of maintaining mental health just as we do our physical health.

Philippians 2:5 reminds us - "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus".

I pray that whatever is troubling your mind tonight will cease it’s stronghold over your thoughts. I pray that the Most High will give you a permanent solution to that reoccurring problem and that you will experience sound sleep so that you will awaken with rejuvenation in both your body and your spirit.

In the name of Yeshua, Amen .

Stop It!

                                                                hmm…

  Oftentimes, it bothers us to know that someone has a problem with us when we have done nothing to them.  If you are anything like me, you can spend countless moments trying to figure out what it is/was that caused that person to display what is perceived as rejection.  As I thought about this, I had to come to grips with the fact that in many cases I’ll never know the reason.  Neither will you.

If we really knew why certain people had a problem with us - we would probably be surprised!  Sometimes, people have issues with us that have more to do with who we remind them of than anything that we have ever said or anything that we have ever done to them. 

The issues that “they” have with us may have nothing to do with us, per se.  The issues that “they” have are more about who and what we represent. 

Sometimes, the reason “they” have issues with us is because …. 

• We remind them of that person who tried to destroy them.

• We remind them of the person who rejected them.

• We remind them of the person who walked off and left them.

• We remind them of the person who stole their lover.

• We remind them of their moma who dropped them and left them scarred for life.

• We remind them of their daddy who abandoned the family.

• We remind them of their abusers and their accusers.

• We remind them of somebody who humiliated them and broke their spirit.

• We remind them of that person who out-achieved them in what they used to be the best in... hmm

• We remind them ……

What I’m saying is that (many times), people have unresolved issues that they attempt to resolve by disliking or rejecting someone else.  They attempt to dim the lights of others just so that they can shine. Stop trying to get their acceptance and approval.  Work on you and keep it moving!

"When The Past Comes Behind You"

Silent Sufferers 

MEMO: As I awakened on this morning, the Most High dropped this in my spirit.

Be mindful of how you respond to others. There are people in our midst who are suffering in silence. They may look good, they may dress well and they may behave accordingly. But, behind closed doors, they are fragile emotional wrecks. One wrong word, one unkind or thoughtless act could cause them to break. Everything is not always the way it appears. Therefore, when you pray, remember those who daily suffer in silence.
