I AM NOT ASHAMED
When I started my blog I never would do a post on Sunday. I thought that I shouldn’t since it was the day of rest. I was going to be like Chick-Fil-A and be closed on Sundays. However, for a reason that I can’t explain, I felt the need to do an inspirational/religious post. You can not even begin to understand how out of my comfort zone this was.
I am not a scholar, I am just trying to be closer to the Lord. I cannot quote scriptures, and I would never try to preach to anyone. Sharing my journey, my struggles, and my thoughts was never intended to be a part of this blog. In fact, I get more negative feedback about my Sunday posts than any post that I do. Sometimes, those comments are sent to me by email, so I never share those with you, but there are times when a comment is left on the blog.
I would be lying if I didn’t say that there have been times when I thought about not posting on Sundays; it would be so much easier on me. Having someone tell you that they don’t want their fashion blogger “preaching” to them can be hurtful. I will usually call my sister and cry to her, then shake it off and do it all over again the next week.
I have to keep reminding myself that the devil will use every tactic possible to keep anyone from sharing the Lord’s work is what keeps me going. Today’s devotional was on Luke 9 and even though it was not about this verse, this is what spoke to me.
Luke 9:26
Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
I am not ashamed of the Lord! I can only pray that He is not ashamed of me and that when my time comes to be before Him, He will have mercy on me.
So, for those who love fashion and only want to see clothing, check out my blog Monday through Saturday. And for those who are also struggling with their journey with the Lord and want some inspiration and companionship, continue to come back each Sunday. The devil is just going to have to get over it because I am not quitting. I AM NOT ASHAMED!
Have A Blessed Sunday!
Proud of you! Yes it is hard to share our faith but Gods word never goes void. That is our freedom as Americans for us all whether we agree or not!
Keep the faithful blogs. I praise God for you.
Thank you, Tania! You’re an inspiration and example in more ways than one. Just keep pressing on! ❤️
Thank you for your Sunday posts. I love them. Don’t let the negative win. God bless.
Thank you for sharing on Sundays about your faith journey with the Lord-it always blesses me and touches my heart.?
He is only love and we are his disciples. Spread His word. Exude His love. Be His light! Those who send you negative responses need him most. Pray for them. You are doing a great job!
God created us all for a purpose, and while I’m still trying to figure out what mine is, I’m thankful you’ve seemed to find what yours is and you are giving Him credit for it all. Blessings to you!
Tania I so enjoy your blog on fashion, hilarious and heartwarming stories and your introduction to Rodin and Fields but it’s your Sunday inspirational posts that have kept me following you for these past two years.
It was through one of those post that I knew the Lord was speaking to me. Because you were obedient to His voice my life was touched. I have rekindled my commitment the Lord. Thank you for your part in that!
I too have rekindled my faith and these Sunday blogs have played a large part in that.
Thank you! Please don’t stop sharing.
You are not alone on this journey. I, too, can not quote scripture by memory. (Or poetry or sonets or Shakespeare). That is not my gift. I, too, do not have the gift of preaching to people out of nowhere. But I love the Lord, have always been a believer, and hopefully an example of what a joyful, Christ-based life can be. I love the little things in life and take pleasure in small gifts of kindness. Findling your blog has been a blessing for me. I am dressing better (at 52) and feeling better (even after back surgery) because of it. You stay strong and plant your roots deeply in the foundation of God’s truth. You be the best you can be and let God do the rest.
