I pray to the Almighty that He may look over this nation. May He look over all those that come across this post. May He watch over them and draw them closer to Him. Thank you for never leaving my side. Thank you for guiding me in the darkness. Thank you for allowing me to wake up this morning, for my food and everything you bestow on me. For all good times gongs come from you I would be nothing without you. May this night bring peace to all that seek it from You. May their prayers be answered according to Your Will. Let me be able to rest for I am not feeling well. Let Your Almighty hand heal me from whatever this may be but only if it is Your Will. I put myself at Your feet and Your Mercy. I ask all this not by merits or anything I can do but in the Name of Jesus Christ my Lord and Saviour. Amen. đđź

Thatâs why
Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live?
Iâm at the age where I realize I am grateful for the life I have lived. It wasnât what I set out in my life. Many things happened that took me off the path I wanted to be on. But ultimately it was God that made this path I walk on. For His Will and His Purpose I walk it willingly. I donât know why but His Purpose is what I live for. So no there is no age or year of my life I would re-live.
Everything happens for a reason learning to accept that is hard. But knowing the path you walk is with God makes it much easier to walk.
May this reach you
Life update
Itâs been a really busy week. A good time of the year because weâre extremely busy, but my allergies have been making my life hard. I am still grateful for each and every single day that I get to wake up in the morning. I thank God every single day for each and every single moment that I get to spend with my mom, my dad, my sister the dog, working out, eating healthy, and and not trying to spend too much time watching C dramas
I have spent more time this week, not being on TikTok, YouTube, or any other social media platform. Mainly because thereâs a lot of reasons for you to get angry and I donât like to get angry. So for my own peace of mind, I have decided to take some time off of the social media platforms.
I am more focused on my relationship with God than I am about other people and their drama and bringing that person down and all the stuff thatâs so unnecessary right now. Life is difficult enough. We donât really need to be fighting for every single thing. I am trying to get my mom to work out more because sheâs elderly and Iâm trying to prepare her for the cruise next year.
So I spend a lot of time working out with her to get her into shape that makes her more flexible. Not just flexible, but also stronger so that she could have more stamina when weâre walking around. I donât think people realize how hard it is to take care of your parents as they get older. Itâs like dealing with toddlers. Except for toddlers, you can put your foot down but with your parents, theyâre adults and you donât want to belittle them. Theyâve worked hard all their lives, and they do deserve to kind of like sit back. Even if I disagree with all the time that they sit back and take naps.
But I am in a really good headspace right now and I think that is the best part of my life right now. I am becoming more disciplined, focusing more on getting stronger building a foundation and spending time with my family and God.
I hope you are all doing well and I hope you have a wonderful beautiful weekend. Stay blessed.~~ Emmaďżź~~
Canât sleep
I am writing this at three in the morning. Today was a really good day. I canât complain, but I canât sleep. I worked out, went to PT, did acupuncture, it really was a good day. I mean every day that youâre alive is a good day isnât it?
Unfortunately sleeping is my biggest problem right now. My dreams have been filled with nightmares of darkness. I get the same ones over and over.
Most of my dreams are centered around seeing things I shouldnât see. I am usually walking in the city. There are flames and fires everywhere, there are dead bodies all over the place. Everything is destroyed in that and there I am just walking in the midst of all that chaos and destruction. Itâs a dream that Iâve had over and over again. I donât know why I have it yet I dream it over and over again.
Sometimes I wonder if they will ever stop. Right after I start thinking that I get like five dreams in a row crazy dreams. Itâs funny because so many people I ask âdo you dreamâ and their answer is always ânoâ. When I go to bed the moment I fall asleep I am dreaming all night from dream to dream to dream. Hopefully tonight I get to sleep, even if itâs dream and dream and dream.
I hope tonight you have wonderful dreams always ~Emma~
Being comfortable
What is one thing you would change about yourself?
I have grown into a better version of myself. I have learned from my mistakes and changed my perspective on life. I think itâs easy for us to forget that in order for us to keep moving forward. We need to focus on something greater than ourselves.
I am learning to be more confident in myself and more comfortable in my own skin. If there is one thing I can change about myself, it would be to stay more silent.
I was once told by an old acquaintance that sometimes it is better to not say anything or be comfortable in the silence. I never understood what he meant until I started taking time for myself in the silence.
There is such power being in silence and not having to fill the silence with words that mean nothing. Taking time to reflect or be comfortable in the silence is extremely powerful.
I never got to share that with him, that he taught me an extremely important lesson. And though our paths may never cross again, I am grateful that he did teach me such an important lesson.
Sometimes being in the quietness amongst the chaos of the world is absolute freedom.
So if I have to change about myself it would be to spend more time in the silence. Thinking my own thoughts, listening to the words of other people around me just being comfortable in the silence.
When you used toâŚ
I asked last year around September for guidance from God. My prayer is what one of the books I read would be called âdangerous prayersâ.
Itâs not dangerous prayers that cause any danger. But itâs more along the line praying for something and not knowing how much time it will take or what you will lose in the process. Learning that itâs not going to be given in your time nor the way you want it.
A lot of Christians donât really believe in dangerous prayers I am one of the ones that has seen dangerous prayers answered over and over again..
Again, dangerous prayers are not causing danger or even asking for some sort of dangerous activity to happen. I guess you can say itâs more of be careful what youâre praying for because you might actually get what you prayed for.
So like I said last September 2023 I prayed for God to guide me closer to him no matter what. In the prayer, I asked God if there is anything in my life that is distracting me or pulling me away from you I want it removed. I donât care what I lose or the pain caused I want to be closer to You oh Lord.
So a couple months go by and I started seeing people that I was close to just kind of like disappear. So it started with a person I was close to. We spoke daily a lot and as time went on, I started to see a shift and at first I wanted to ignore it pretend like thatâs not whatâs going on, but then I started to see the distance and it was clear.
After we stop speaking and months went by earlier this year, I started to realize it was God pulling that person out of my life. The reason that God pulled that person out of my life was because that person was a distraction. Someone might say that thatâs cruel to say. But for me, my goal has always been to get closer to God. My life mission has always been to be one of Godâs Warriors.
So here we are in November 2024, a year has passed and I havenât spoken to this person in a good 10 or 11 months. Do I miss the person? Yeah sometimes. But I have also learned to mourn the relationship and move on.
Just today another thing that I loved doing became meh. I wasnât excited I wasnât thrilled to be doing it. I just felt nothing. One must be prepared that when you ask for something and you ask obstacles or anything to be removed, they will be removed. Your love for them will be taken away. Your desire to be filled with them will be destroyed if thatâs what you asked for.
There are other things that have changed. My love for a lot of things have changed. I spend more time in prayer, more time writing, more time in self-reflection, learning more about myself, and learning to grow from my past mistakes.
It is in this waiting season that I have learned that God has stripped away a lot of distractions from my life. Things that I held onto that I didnât even think were distractions, but they were. They were distractions from me, developing a relationship with God and for me developing into a better individual for myself, for my family, for society, and for God.
It is in this waiting season that I have learned to let go of things that donât matter. I have learned to forgive those that hurt me in the past. I have learned that the most important thing in life is to cherish each and every single moment you are alive.
I have learned to embrace each and every single moment. Whether itâs spending a Sunday cleaning with my niece, nephew, my sister, my mom, my dad and my brother, in the garage hanging up Christmas lights. Whether itâs spending Sabbath with my family and drinking cappuccinos with the new Nespresso machine. Itâs in those little moments that weâre making memories that will last a lifetime. Itâs in those moments that we are truly living life.
I donât know what tomorrow might bring but I definitely know. I trust God to bring me through tomorrow.
So has God answered my dangerous prayer? The answer to that is yes and no. He is definitely answering the prayer. I just havenât gotten to the end yet.
I did ask for more than just becoming closer to God. That was my main prayer and still my main objective. But thereâs one little part of that prayer that Iâm waiting for. I have constantly waited, and God has referred to this moment as the waiting season.
Sometimes we become impatient during the waiting season, but we have to remember that when you ask for something from God heâs going to deliver. Whether itâs through a dangerous prayer like I said before or just a prayer he will answer.
I know a lot of people donât believe in dangerous prayers. But I can tell you based on my own history dangerous prayers are real just be careful and be ready for the consequences of asking such prayers. Itâs all about trust baby. Itâs all about trust and having faith in Jesus Christ to answer your prayer.
Remember, God always answers in his time not our own. ďżź
I hope this is a lesson for you to learn and I hope you have a wonderful, beautiful blessed week. Love always, Emma. ďżź
Memorial Day Weekend
As we go forth this Memorial Day weekend on the many bbq around in the States, with everyone enjoying time with the fam. Donât forget to take time out to remember the men and women that have died for this great country.
I know many may feel that America is on a decline. This might be true morally, our country has been invaded by this Marxist ideology being pushed in schools and pretty much everywhere.
With that said I still have hope for this beautiful country. I pray God will hear the prayers of the patriots that pray for the healing of this great nation. That we can come together as Americans in the belief like our founders did. Give me freedom or give me death.
So on this weekend as you celebrate please remember those that did just that. To give you freedom they faced death. Shedding their blood for the American people, for the American dream. No matter what the color of your skin, no matter that background anyone can make it. May God bless the members that have lost family fighting for our freedom. Bless the men and women that have all paid the ultimate price to give us the freedoms we take for granted.
On reflection I hope many will think about what we take for granted. Freedom isnât free it is purchased by the sacrifice of someone else.
Jesus Christ died for our freedom from this life and paid with His blood. The men and woman that died for our freedom in America paid with their lives. Never forget that.
I hope it is a blessed weekend and safe one.
God Bless the USA đşđ¸

To Vote or Not to Vote?!?
Do you vote in political elections?
Yes I do vote I think itâs extremely important to vote. Sometimes I believe it wonât make a difference but in truth if I donât vote I have no reason to complain. Not voting is like not speaking. Regardless of what one might say they still have the right to say it. It might be something no one wants to hear, or might be something worth hearing but if one chooses not to speak they have silenced themselves.
As a Puerto Rican Christian American born in this great beautiful country itâs an honor to live here. To vote for what I believe in. To voice my thoughts, to let my voice be heard. Itâs a beautiful thing to have freedoms that many places donât have in the world.
I am extremely blessed to live here. Itâs not perfect but no place on earth is perfect. I vote for my values. Every time I vote I pray before entering the booth. God truly is the Power and he can raise kings or bring them down. So I make sure the person I vote for is one that values America. A person that loves this country. One that believes in the American people. One that wants the American people to thrive. One that believes that We the People have the power and not some lobbyist or agency. Itâs what the founders wanted for America. Freedom from tyranny.
As I have gotten older I see more of the value of voting in each election. Itâs important for all Americans to vote. If we donât protect our rights the government wonât. We the People must always protect and remember this is our country and whoever we vote works for us not themselves. If they work for anyone else they needed to be voted out.
Be proud my fellow Americans for God will get us through these dark days. We must trust His Plan. ~Emma~
Feeling down?
When you feel down get on your knees and pray to God. When you are drowning in pain, get on your knees and pray to God. When all hope is so lost you canât find your way, get on your knees and pray to God. I know it might seem silly. If you have to plead and yell and scream talk to God.
I know it might seem hopeless and pointless. I have one thing in life that has consistently given me the strength to keep going, that is God. I hope when you read this, you take these words to heart. Remember God is with you. Have a good night~Emma~
