eyeInspire: Pray Confidently

This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him. - 1 John 5:14-15 (NIV)

How many times have you prayed for something? How many of those times have you wondered why those prayers went unanswered? It's not that your prayers are every unanswered, but what happens is that God will answer prayers in unexpected ways. What the Bible talks about in 1 John 5:14 is the confidence we have in approaching God. How confident are you that God can make any and everything happen? Do you trust that God will come through for you? Sometimes we don't and that is why we don't get the answer we want when we pray.

If you are truly seeking God and his will for your life, you have to have faith! Faith isn't just saying you believe, but showing God that you trust him wholeheartedly. That's the confidence he's talking about. Think about the confidence that you have in your parents, that they will always be able to provide for you no matter what. Do you realize that sometimes they struggle, but always pull through for you? It didn't happen for them on their own strength, but by God's grace and mercy and the faith that they have in Him. If you truly trust and believe, lay all your cares and worries on him and watch him work. The next time you pray, eyeInspire you to pray in faith and in confidence.

SIA: Have CONFIDENCE!

There is always room for improvement, and since September is the Self-Improvement Awareness month eye'm here to help you do that!

CONFIDENCE

To succeed, you need confidence. To have confidence you must have the courage of conviction. Marianne Williamson put it this way:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Walk it Out!

Ladies, we all like to look sexy! You know, have that gorgeous outfit, good makeup, and great hair. But what about shoes?! This is my issue because I am a shoe FIEND but I have a deep, dark secret...

I cant walk in stilettos! What a tragedy. A fashion major who can't walk in heels, SMH! So, I'm on this quest to figure out how to WORK IT like Naomi and Tyra! I've been online all day looking at videos that people uploaded with tips and such trying to explain how to walk. So for all you diva's that need a little help like me, here's the tips that I found:

1. Stand up straight! Slouching only brings you closer to the ground and that's no good.

2. Heel - Toe...WRONG. Think of putting your weight on your arch. This way your balance is on your whole foot and not one part.

3. Stick out that booty! It'll balance out your posture and help your body to be lifted.

4. Scratch the bottom of your shoes. It'll make the shoes less slippery and help you walk harder and it'll make the walk look a lot better

5. Last but not least... Put some CONFIDENCE in it! Nothing looks better than a confident woman!

Work it, Ladies!
