Gossiping comes natural to us. We do it without even realizing it. In this episode, we dive into some bible verses that shows why God is not okay with gossiping. As we mature, we need to let go of certain habits and letting go of gossip is one of them. Gossiping can be hurtful and we are called to live at a higher standard.

Life can be stressfull sometimes. The stresses of life can affect our mental health. It is okay to prioritize yourselve and do some self reflection. In this episode, I go over ways to make time for yourself and and how to change your mindset.

Doesn't it feel good to have someone do something nice for you. As christians, we are called to be the light of the world. We are the examples that others look at. We can change our environments by showing the fruits of the spirits. One of the fruits of the spirit is Kindness. The world needs more kind people and kindness is contagious. We show the love of God by doing random acts of kindness for people. It can be as simple as smiling at someone.

We are all striving to reach a certain goal in life. Some of us struggle with perfectionism. This can cause a fear of failure and lead to overthinking. We put so much pressure on ourselves to be good at everything. We don't leave room for growth and mistakes. It becomes hard to be kind to ourselve. Now is the time to break out of that cycle.

It is human nature to want to strive for big things. We compare ourselves to others and wish we had what they have. Some people reach the pinnacle of success and yet they feel unfulfilled. What if I told you that happiness is found in having a simple life and being content.

It can be frustating when you're trying to change and it's not happening fast enough. It is even harder dealing with others who refuse to change. We live in broken world and people are searching for answers. The only answer is Jesus. Jesus is the one that change the hearts of any unbeliever.

Jealousy is a sin, but we have all felt that feeling from time to time. God is the only one who is truly holy and he is the one who will bring to our attention the sin in our hearts. It can get frustrating to see others getting blessed when your situation is staying the same, but trust God. You have to keep your heart pure and ask God to remove the jealousy. Besides, we are God's representative here on earth. Comparison breeds jealousy, so it is best to learn to be satisfied with what you have. Bring everything to the feet of Jesus.

I share about something that I learned this week. I dive into how pride is something that can be hidden so deep that you don't realize its there.  Pride always comes before the fall.

Watch out for what you think. You become your thoughts and there is wisdom in knowing that. God will lead you to what you must do to get your breakthrough. It sometimes start with renewing your mind and believing what God has said instead.
