With All I Am

3/30/2014

    The love of God is perfect love. There is none greater. He watches over us daily, leading and guiding us…protecting us from harm. He provides us with the things we need and even blesses us with our desires. He gives us chance after chance to get it right when we mess up. He gave his only Son for us… even though we did not and still do not deserve it. There is no greater love than the love of our Lord.  :)

(KJV) 1 John chapter 4 verses 9- 19

9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19 We love him, because he first loved us.

Wash and go with Jane Carter and Flaxseed Gel :)

3/24/2014

5 Comments

 
    I just cowashed with Jane Carter Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner and I ended up doing a wash and go with Jane Carter's Creamy Leave in Styling Smoother (a little less than 3 pumps), Nourish and Shine a little more than a dime size, and The flaxseed gel from today's video, Making Flaxseed Gel (Requested) + Tipshttp://youtu.be/jqUcyP2YdQ0. 

    I used 15 pumps of the gel... sounds like a lot but the pump squirts small amounts lol.... hey it's from the dollar store!. :) I applied (scrunched) all the products in the order stated previously. I also sat under the dryer for about 15 -20 minutes on the cool setting  (which left my fro extremely smushed like always lol... so I just lifted the roots with my fingers and a pik.)



    Yup! I'm still trying out things without using direct liquid oils on my hair for styling and it's working really well! As for Ms. Fro, I'm probably gonna stretch her out into a larger fro later on tonight after ice cream lol... but I LOVE the way it looks now that I'm undecided! :D

Making Flaxseed Gel

3/24/2014

2 Comments

 
    Hey!  In this video, I show how I make flaxseed gel as well as share tips! I hope this helps! :D  

    I like to have this gel around because it works very well for the boys and it leaves all of our hair feeling soft with a natural hold.  The fact that I can add whatever I want to it and it's an all natural gel is a plus for sure!  It's soo quick and easy to make this healthy alternative to commercial gels. :)

The Steps :)

What's needed:

4 TBS whole flaxseeds
2 cups of water
1 tsp vitamin E oil
Optional: 1 tsp or more of your favorite oils.  I'm using grapeseed oil and JBCO.

Get Happy!

Get Happy Ya’ll! 
(Being angry just takes too much energy and effort lol! Plus in the end, it ain’t even worth it!)

(KJV) Psalm 37 verses 1- 11 

37 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

Your Name Is Great! :D

3/16/2014

    Good Morning!
    There is NO other name higher than the name of Jesus Christ! 

(KJV) Philippians chapter 2 verses 1-11

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

    Hey!!!  I'm diggin' these two (Jane Carter Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner and Shea Moisture Coconut and Hibiscus Shea Butter Wash) so far!
 (Ty and I mentioned them in yesterday's vlog, Cloudy Day Conversations (+ Cut Scenes At End) - http://youtu.be/8ucDTU4YKzM  

    As a side note, the Jane Carter conditioner I have has completely different ingredients than what's listed on her site.... oh boy, I'm not sure which is the new formula and which is the old... smh!  Since I love conditioners (my hair needs them like water lol)  I hope this turns out to be a keeper.  It's affordable and has great ingredients. I'll be sure to do a full review on it soon. :) 

    Mine starts with water, olive oil, sage, rosemary, basil, mullein etc...



    Have you ever tried these products?
