Becoming the Bride of Christ

So every girl biggest dream is to be married to the man of her dreams, right?! Well, let me question you on this how many of us are committed to our first true love which is Christ. He paid the price over 2000 years ago, and tore the veil to have a close intimate relationship with you. If you're a guy reading this blog then your best option is to pick a woman that is saved and living her life married to Christ as you are submitting to His authority and honoring GOD. As women we must never forget that in order to have a beautiful godly marriage we should be choosing someone who reflects the character of our Heavenly Father and living born again with His Spirit.

But until then for your time to come to love and awaken it (Song of Solomon 8:4); as the bride of Christ you should be seeking the Lord wholeheartedly and fulfilling your purpose. Our mission should be to walk in purity, holiness,chasteness, and the fruits of the spirit. You should be gaining wisdom, knowledge, and learning how to be a godly woman. We should be serving God in the capacity of ministry for His people. We should be spending time with God daily, getting into His word, worshiping Him, and depending on Him for love, intimacy, meeting needs and EVERYTHING! Because He is your everything.

Some scriptures to help you on the journey of being married to Christ

Revelation 19:7-9 ESV / 266 helpful votes

Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready; it was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure”— for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints. And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.

Isaiah 54:5English Standard Version (ESV)

5 For your Maker is your husband,
the Lord of hosts is his name;
and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer,
the God of the whole earth he is called.

Ezekiel 16:8 ESV

“When I passed by you again and saw you, behold, you were at the age for love, and I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your nakedness; I made my vow to you and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Lord God, and you became mine.

New Living Translation
Song of Solomon 8:4 Promise me, O women of Jerusalem, not to awaken love until the time is right.

As you can see from the scriptures the Lord is our husband and we are His Bride. We must commit ourselves to Him and give Him our whole heart. Spend time with Him, in His presence and in His word. God loves us so much and He ridiculously cares about us. He wants a close intimate relationship with you and Christ as your foundation before marriage. Settle your mind and stay steadfast with the Lord walking in holiness. God has a plan for your life in your single years and longs to prosper you.

My Story:Living with a Mental Illness

Hello lovelies!! Am I the only one that didn't find out that May is mental health awareness month until towards the end?! When I saw it posted on a girl page, I immediately thought I have to blog my story and tell my readers that I've battled living with a mental illness. Since I found out maybe a couple of weeks ago about it being mental health awareness month, I was so full of different emotions, for this is still a sensitive area for me. Disclaimer: I am not an expert, I do not have all the answers concerning mental illness; I always advise doing your own research. However, I will share my experiences and what it was like living with a mental illness and being a Christian. Any negative comments will be deleted. There is someone out there looking for a story of hope and your remarks can make a person feel rejected and want to be isolated. I'm an aspiring mental health advocate and my hope is to bring people to Jesus. Few facts from National Alliance on Mental

"Why I Chose to Get My Associates Degree Instead of my Bachelors this Year?"

Graduation Day Saturday, May 6, 2017 Hello loves! I'm so excited to announce that I graduated from Schoolcraft College with my Associates Degree in Communications with a 3.81 average!!!!! :) God is so faithful!!! It was nothing but God that pulled me through! I am so ever grateful for the love and support from family and friends that came through for me by their encouragement, prayers, and financially, as a gift for graduation...it means a ton to me (kisses and hugs to all of you). Before and after I graduated, I got asked a lot by people, family and friends, "what's next"? But before I get into that, I want to answer the question that's in the title of this blog-post! I know some may have wondered, that are my Facebook friends like, "Didn't she used to go to Wayne State? What happened?" Well, yes I did go to Wayne State University in Detroit, Mi and a lot happened. After having two nervous break downs within 8 months apar

7 years since my last hospitalization in psychiatric care

Hey Loves, In the month of July, I shared on my Social Media my experiences with Bipolar and Dating, Mental Health and Education, and Mental Health and Ministry. I did Instastory posts on Instagram @sheree.p.braswell sharing my journey because I am not ready to blog or do a Youtube video fully about it but prayerfully one day I will. But I did want to write a blogpost about how it's been 7 years since my last hospitalization in psychiatric care! I've had four hospitalizations and ever since my last one in 2014, I realized that something was truly wrong with me that I had no control over. That I did have a mental illness and I needed to take care of my mental health. I've learned taking care of your mental health should be a priority just like your physical health should be and that it is just as important. I had to learn there is no shame in having a mental illness and I had to unlearn the myths and let go of the stigma around it. I had my ideas about mental illne

7 years of being Single and What I’ve Learned....

Photo cred: Hill Media Group Hey lovelies! Happy New Year! So much has happened since I’ve last blogged on here. I received a grant from Detroit Wayne Mental Health Authority to advance my mental health advocacy, did a mental health first aid training for adults at my church, volunteered at Children’s Hospital with the hematology and oncology department, got accepted to Madonna University for my bachelors. Now i am currently working on a self esteem short book for young women. These past 7 months have been a time of pruning, getting closer to the Lord and strategizing. There were definitely some up and down moments but I’m so glad i made it!! Now that i updated you, the Lord really laid on my heart to blog before Valentine’s Day things I’ve learned in my 7 year time of being single. By the way I love how 7 is for completion! Woohoo ! So here it go: Timing is everything . I learned that at times I wanted a relationship so badly but God was showing me things about m

Be Thankful!

Ephesians 5:20 And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. NLT. Today, may be the day where you spend time with your close relatives, chowing down on some delicious holiday cooking, and plus more! However, have you sat down and spoke to the Lord letting him know all the things you are thankful for--- at all times? The spirit of Thanksgiving should never come from in due season or in certain circumstances but should be given at all times. Let your "thanks and giving" not be seasonal but at all times! For it says in his Word, Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 NLT (Sad but true at times) Sadly, around the holiday season some give thanks to God on Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter and then it's back to them being rooted in their own selfish motives, ambitions and dreams. For some, it may be a time where they sit and mourn
