The Introverted Evangelist

I want to be so close to Him. I want to hear His heartbeat. I want to touch His beautiful face. I want to look into the eyes of Mercy. For He is the Prince of Peace. He fills me with grace and cleanses me of all unrighteousness. God be with you all. Amen.

Right before me stands just what I need. The truth that comes from the One true living God. Sneaky, tricky lies from the enemy may try to contaminate the air around me, but within me is something much more powerful. In me I hold the Holy Spirit. The King of kings dwells inside of my heart. Nothing can stop me.

    As we enter into the holiday season it's easy to become whirled up in Christmas commotion, so it is indeed very important that we take a moment to remember the true meaning of this joyous holiday.    Jesus, our Emmanuel, born on Christmas day. Born to give us freedom, hope, and everlasting life in Heaven above. The King of kings and Lord of lords; the ultimate gift. How awe-inspiring He is! How gracious is He to become flesh like us so that we might become His righteousness. He humbled Himself, and was born of a virgin; a miracle! Mary, the young virgin, carried our savior into the world. Our Savior who was born to die for us all. "the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!”" (Luke 1:28)    Glory, glory, hallelujah! May the name of the Lord be lifted high across the nations! May His goodness endure forevermore! Praise be to the God of the universe!    God bless you and your fam...

   Do you hear a voice inside your head denouncing your every fault, or do you hear a Voice that enlightens your perspective? A voice of condemnation or freedom? Listen closely to what you hear. The Voice of the Lord is soft, peaceful, and powerful, but the lies of the enemy are harsh, reprimanding, and admonishing. The Lord fills you with an everlasting joy and serenity, whereas the enemy only lies and destroys. Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."    Remember to call upon the Name of the Lord in every situation, for He has the power to save you. Cry out to Him when you are weary. Sing songs of praise for Him when you are untroubled and beaming. Allow the Lord to be the center of your life, and always keep your eyes on Him.    "And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Now to our God an...

When we pray we are filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. "But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." (Jude 1:20, 21 NKJV)

If someone wrongs you, give him grace. The Lord forgave us all our debt (the debt we could never, ever pay), therefore we are called to forgive others freely. We have the choice not to bring it up again. Let it go. Release it.

   The look is simple and understated; ideal for Autumn. It's subtle yet playful. It gives you the impression of "full fledged fall". First a colour-block sweater paired with long flannel trousers, then a hint of sophistication with some Marc Jacobs Slips and a fun, polka-dotted Kate Spade bag. Next thing you know, you're ready for the Fall festivities and New York street style, enjoy!     -T.I.E.
