The Narrow Path of Purity

Hi, P.I.M PALS! (o^-^o)/

Welcome to today’s blog post about the narrow path of purity.

We are in spring, a season known for its new beginnings.

For one, students across the world are in the season of graduation and getting ready to move on to the next new chapter in their lives. 🎓

If you are a student reading this, maybe you are about to graduate soon or you have already graduated. Or perhaps, you are just transitioning from one grade to another.

I want to encourage you, reader, not to let the new chapter in your life, whether you are starting middle school, high school, college, or pursuing a new career, take you down the wide path of impurity.

As it says in Matthew 7:13-14 (ESV), “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”

Therefore, reader, do not be influenced by people or things that can take you down the path of impurity.

Many temptations can come your way but always remember who is your strength to help you resist those temptations. You can still maintain the path of purity.

For example, if you are a student entering junior high, you might face many students in your grade level who are somewhat immature but some who are mature.

Kids love to impress others and can be easily influenced by one another. And sometimes, to get attention or appear mature, kids will say or do inappropriate things.

I encourage you not to compromise your values to impress someone, or as a true friend, make sure you stop others from compromising.

Let me give you some other examples of some temptations that might come your way as you begin the new chapter in your life:

  • Engaging in lying and gossiping, which can cause division.
  • Taking drugs and drinking alcohol. All it takes is for someone to introduce it to you, and you have to decide whether you are going to open that door or walk away because any drug or alcohol use can become an addiction and lead to death.
  • Worshipping other gods or engaging in certain cults or organizations that are demonically influenced and can stir you away from worshipping the true, living God, which is Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
  • Involving yourself with gangs, bullies, etc.
  • Feeling pressured to date someone just because everybody else is doing it. Oftentimes, we move too fast in a relationship before we actually get to know the person. This leads to potential regrets or being left heartbroken.
  • Watching inappropriate tv shows or listening to music that will make you become desensitized to violence, dirty jokes, profanity, etc.

All these things and more can affect both your heart and your mind.

We tend to allow Satan, friends, associates, and even family members to make us feel like we are missing out. When you choose not to participate in any of these impure activities, they will now label you as old-fashioned or unpopular.

Don’t fall into that mindset and be fooled by these temptations that others are trying to encourage you to do. These temptations will reveal how much of an immature follower you are and not a leader.

The path of purity is not wide, but it’s right. Purity is not popular nor is it easy, but a life of purity leads to joy and freedom in God’s presence. 🤍

So, reader, are you walking the path of purity? If so, how will you remain pure?

Psalm 119:9 (NIV) says, “How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to Your Word.”

Therefore, reader, that’s your answer! Let God’s Word be your guiding light while walking the path of purity. It will be your strength in times of temptation.

Thank you so much for reading! I hope that you found this post to be valuable, and if it resonated with you, feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section down below.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter, P.I.M PALS! (/( ்̓˟்̓)\)🥕

I hope that wherever you are in the world you had a lovely Easter. ✨

Personally, I love Easter for a variety of reasons. For one, I loved receiving adorable Easter baskets from my family when I was a little girl. Also, I enjoyed participating in Easter egg hunts and egg dyeing, and still do. And lastly, bunnies are my favorite animal, and Easter is a day dedicated to bunnies. 🐰💕

But most importantly…

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,” ~ 1 Peter 1:3

Therefore, reader, always celebrate life for Christ who is our living hope, and death has no power and no dominion. ✨

May God bless you and protect you, and I pray and speak that you are safe and healthy always. 🙏💕

Your P.I.M PAL,

Selene

Blossom

Hi, P.I.M PALS! (o^-^o)/

Welcome to today’s blog post about blossoming.

As I watch the trees blossom with flowers this spring, I thought about what it means to blossom as a person.

Firstly, what does it mean to blossom?

To blossom means to flourish and develop into something beautiful like a flower, for example. 🌸

In other words, when you see a person blossom, they become a more confident, attractive, and successful version of themselves.

Each and every one of us are called to blossom in this life. But sometimes we are faced with difficult people, obstacles, or situations, that can try to keep us from blossoming into the person we are called to be in Christ.

Let me remind you what it says in the book of John 10:10 (ESV), “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I (God) came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”

Personally, I have been going through something challenging in my life for quite some time now, and what I am going through has stumbled me to some extent.

However, I have decided that I will not allow this challenge to dominate my life or my spirit.

Satan will try to use the challenges in your life and use them against you, but he has no power over you.

One of the ways I have learned to not allow these challenges to come against me is to simply pray to my Heavenly Father.

Another way is to speak life and rebuke Satan with authority and power in Jesus name!

Oftentimes, I have to remind myself what it says in Psalm 8:2 (KJV), which says, “Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.”

You are a child of the Most High God, reader, who is made to do incredible and beautiful things!

I encourage you to blossom.

Here is a scripture verse that I want to give you.

🌸 Psalm 1:1-3 (NIV) 🌸

“Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on His law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither – whatever they do prospers.”

Therefore, reader, take delight in the Lord and His Word and do not compare yourself to someone else who is blossoming in their own time. You will have your season, just like they are having their season. So, be patient and hopeful because your time of blossoming is in God’s Will and His timing. 🌱

So, have you come to that point in your life when you are seeing yourself blossoming?

🌸

I hope you found this post to be valuable, reader, and if it resonated with you, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

May you blossom and overflow with abundance this spring and forever, and not let anyone or anything bring you down. 🌸

God bless you and protect you, and I pray and speak good health and safety over you always in Jesus name. 🙏✨

Your P.I.M PAL,

Selene (🌸^-^)
