Condemnation vs. Conviction
Sweet Tea With Cece
We look at what it means to listen to the still small voice of the Lord and what conviction looks like. If we operate out of a posture of condemnation is brings about guilt and shame. It can keep us from experiencing the fullness and trust with the Lord to live an abundant life. Let’s look at the difference between the two and train our ears to and hearts to know what it means for His burden to be easy and his yolk light.

Ask!
Sweet Tea With Cece
Since the beginning of time there has been a divide between what God says and us questioning, "Did God really say?". I would suggest we Ask! We have gotten into debating with each other on who's right and who's wrong or we rely on each other's convictions about what we should do. Neither of those go to the Father and ask him. I challenge you today to turn your face the the Lord and ask!

What I learned in 34 Years!
Sweet Tea With Cece
Sometimes you just have to take a minute and reflect. I will be turning 35 in just a few weeks, and I wanted to sit back and look at what I have learned in my 34 years of living. I have gone through quite a bit and sometimes am not sure how I made it here. I am glad that I did and did not do it alone! I hope this encourages you and maybe take a minute to reflect on your life and how much you have overcome.

Singleness: Content in the waiting
Sweet Tea With Cece
Being almost 35 the enemy can come at you from a lot of angles. Telling you you're not enough, you've missed it, you're too much, you're not doing enough, you're doing too much; all the things and the truth is they are ALL LIES! God never promised marriage, is it a desire yes, but is it my purpose no. Can I still be everything he’s called me to be? Absolutely. Being content can be hard at times but what it really tells me is that amid my waiting, what piece(s) of my heart does God want from me and what parts am I still not finding complete in him. Come with me on this journey of how I do my...

It is that deep
Sweet Tea With Cece
In today's society as Christians we have the tendency to say things like "Oh it's not that deep!" I challenge that thought and say actually it is that deep! There are letters in the bible that tell us what tolerence does and I think that Lord has a lot to say, we just have to quiet ourselves enough to listen.
