Hey Real ones🤍, hope y’all are doing well..been thinking about you lately💭

Let me give you an opportunity to peek into my journal today, I believe you are going to have fun but don’t let anyone see you while peeking into it 😂.

Sometimes we think everything is in control till we lose it all trying to be human again, there’s a feeling that sucks which you can’t let go unless God intervenes.

I’m talking about the pain you didn’t choose nor cause, but here is something “every painful situation either teaches you or stays in your life, and when a similar situation rises it’s like a wound that’s wounded afresh” (it’s like you’re going back to a battlefield).

This has something to do with personal trauma or unresolved issues, we must admit that we have to check carefully if our life isn’t repeating itself otherwise we get stuck in the same situations.

Prayer is helpful, but when it becomes a “normal thing” you don’t get transformed.

From my own experience I’ve had to deal with disappointment, betrayal, and fear because I could let them take over my life (probably because they were caused by people I loved) however, if you turn your pain into worship, your fear into praises, your betrayal into gratitude,…life experience changes from the lens you were viewing it from, because once you understand your worth you stop compromising.

There’s one last thing I want to share in this blog “The value of a true friendship“

Being frank, a genuine friendship (I mean that partner in crime) “maybe they exist in movies 😂” that may be your reaction, but yeah I feel you….it may feel like that due to different reasons. However, I believe having a friend who keeps you in check vice versa is an amazing experience.

I’d love to share a story with my friend, but I think it’s not the right time…. Stick around you’ll read it one day 🤍.

Let’s just talk about how my life has moved me from being a friend to someone and tried my best to give back the best I could, though as a person who stands by his word I stood by my friend, and this is how I realized that “at times we try to fix things that don’t want to be fixed.”

This is a painful situation which I’ve experienced before, but to be honest if you have a friend you must be there for them,  right? I strongly believe so, but may I ask you a simple question “what if you’re going to Europe, and your friend is not yet decided, what would you do?”- let’s say this a once in a lifetime opportunity, and you have tried to convince your friend to decide because this opportunity can change their life.- and of course you can’t miss this out. “You’d travel regardlessly, right? Yeah, that’s how you must make decisions most of the time when you want to save someone’s life , but they can’t realize it.”

You can’t both die!

I’m sharing this piece of my Journaling today for you to understand that every relationship you have with your friend will determine who you want to become, and if you keep compromising with each other you’ll see your dreams and ambitions failing. You can’t be beneficial to each other or be transformed, because y’all try to go the easy way every time there’s a challenge, and you don’t want to face the true reality.- Pray for wisdom to make the right decisions.

Briefly, in this era when people are struggling with identity crisis it’s hard to convince someone that they’re who God says they’re because comparison, peer pressure, and social influence is on their pedestal.- preach God’s gospel to the world (your friend) it’s on them to decide, and their blood will not be counted on you, however if you don’t tell them the truth is you’ll be accountable for their blood.

So, straight to the point: value of a true friendship.

Friendship isn’t something perfect, but it’s something worth experiencing.

Friendship doesn’t downgrade you, but it upgrades you.

Friendship doesn’t make you feel disrespected, but respected.

Friendship doesn’t only mean partying or laughing, but it means being a safe space for each other. (Safe space doesn’t mean telling your friend what they need to hear, but it means you say it even if it tears them apart)

Friendship isn’t a road to losing yourself, but a journey to self awareness.

Friendship isn’t meant for you to compromise, but it’s meant for you to challenge each other.

Friendship is meant to bring you closer to God, not away from God.

Friendship must be funded by God, otherwise we all human beings it’s very easy to act weird and give up on people.

Love God to be able to love your friend.

We all need Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior, He talks to you according to the truth of your identity not the current circumstances of your reality💭.- He says you’re a my child, now act like my child.

That’s all about today’s journaling, stay blessed not stressed 🤍!
