It's Cooling off at Night.....

Well my Fibromyalgia has started to ache a little stronger since the temperature has dropped. Time for me to pull out all the recipes and projects that I wanted to do all spring and summer long lol During the summer I try to keep busy and accomplish bigger things that I am unable to do during cool and cold months of the year. My body is Fibromyalgia Cold Intolerable!! and this sucks let me tell yah, any little cool breeze the wrong way can set off a bad flare for days to weeks. Thank Yahweh, that I know how to crochet and sew (not really great) lol but I can get something to stay and I have a great imagination to design. I will try to post my projects but I fibro fog a lot lol......

Pruning Dreadlocks

Before Pruning 
I haven't pruned in along time.....too embarrassed to post a before picture of my locs before pruning them. As a Locitian, I stress to my customers to Prune or Trim their locs because the extra loose or wild straight hairs will not mend into the dreadlocks. Having this loose hair hanging around will only create problems in the locs like spaces that are not locking which can cause thinning and breaking. So once a month or two prune your locs so therefore you can have beautiful, thick, manicured dreadlocks. Pruning Services should be in the price rage 15.00 to 20.00, checkout your local Locitian.

Do You Have a Godly Fire?

Do you have a Godly fire in you to tell someone that they are the root problem in your life?


Do you remember when:


Ahab told Elijah that he was a problem? But Elijah, fire back with remembering the Lord before he spoke or self judged Ahab. 1 Kings 18


We do not have to offend each other to say someone is a problem in our lives.


If someone in your life has two opinions- The Lord or The World and they are trying to serve both, Will you let them know they are the root problem and separate yourself from them? 


Another Example and Question to look at: 


When trouble comes your way with family or friends, Do you pray for God to show you who is the problem? As the Men on the boat did with Jonah during a storm. Everyone has a responsibility to God so when God comes to us with an order, We must keep his word and obey the commandments.  Jonah thought he could out run God and after all was done at the end, Jonah still had to fulfill his duties to God.  Jonah 1:1-15
