Trust Issues

By
I work with children every Sunday, lemme rephrase and say toddlers; these range from some at 11 months to 3 years. They are a handful. Believe me. I don't know how people who run a daycare cope. I'm just opportuned to stay with them for max 3 hours and I'm usually worn out.
The koko of my matter is when their parents drop them off, siggghhhhhh! Some parents over do to be honest!  na only you get pikin?!!! Please let your child grow up.
I'm not a children hater oh biko before you think I'm some psycho who hates children, its the opposite sef, I love them, (my uncle thinks I work with them as an escape from reality because children are simple, they aren't as complicated as grown ups) I'm just of the school of thought that there are certain phases that children have to go through. One is separation from your parents.
Some would say I don't want my child to cry, really?!! Even the Bible says there's a time for everything; A time to cry and a time to laugh.
Some would just quickly leave the class and be like I don't want my child to know I have left. Some of them say to the child 'don't worry I'm just going to get your biscuit'
I saw a picture which explained: 'my trust issues began at 2 when my parent said go put on your slippers so you'll follow me out and when I hurriedly went and came back my parent had gone'
Many young people can relate with this; my parents did it for me too, I guess their end game is to make the child independent. So you know sometimes mommy or daddy has to leave and you have to be on your own (well you aren't really on your own; you have God). Which is actually an important lesson in life. Independence! Not just for toddlers but for everyone.
Sometimes we think God is not there; because you can't see Him (like when your child can't see you and begins to cry) but He said I'll never leave you. He has given you all the resources to go forth and conquer.
I'm not saying be independent with God, I'm saying be dependent on God.
Parents teach us independence but God teaches dependency ON HIM.
Have an amazing Monday.
P.S: be grateful you can 'hate' Monday. 
With love, theInspiredCutiee 

Short story type of day

By
I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

Lauren Daigle

By
Lauren Daigle is a contemporary christian music singer. I absolutely love her voice. She speaks to your soul and situation.  Her music is exceptional; but my favorite two are: How Can It Be and Trust In You. The first time I heard 'How Can It Be' I was in tears.. Sigh.. Like I said she speaks to your situation. That moment of my life I felt inadequate of God's love and then I heard this song.  Just take a moment to look at the lyrics:  http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/laurendaigle/howcanitbe.html 'Trust in you' is nothing short of her amazing voice, again the lyrics blow me away. The chorus is always a reminder: When You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to move When You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk through When You don’t give the answers as I cry out to You I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You! I always ask myself; can I still trust God when He doesn't give me the answers I want? Can I still be genuinely gra...

The Halo Effect

By
Are you exhibiting the halo effect? Do you buy products because of the celebrity representing it? Or stay in a relationship that is wrong because of one good quality? We are all attracted to people all the time. What attracts us to others? And what attracts you? When you meet someone for the first time you draw a conclusion about them, subconsciously you decide whether you like them or not. BUT is it possible that one trait or aspect of one's character can influence your perception about them? Honestly, I judge a person's character based on their physical appearance, its a quick judgment that is very likely inaccurate. The good thing is that once I begin to have a conversation, I realize there's more to the person than just physical looks. (Well that's for those that are actually more than their looks). The halo effect can cloud our judgment even when we know about it. When one good quality spills its appeal unto other elements of a per...
