Last post on this tumblr app.

I really like tumblr. I’ve been on here on and off for years-since before I came to faith.

I deleted it for multiple reasons like idolatry, identity issues and sexual immorality.

I think I’m deleting it for good this time now. Tumblr is a good pasttime but I don’t think I need anything to past time. Time is too precious. Too valuable. I’m learning to say “Teach us to number our days so that we may apply our hearts to your wisdom” because God gives us so much time in a day.

And tbh, tumblr isn’t very productive. The input and output are off. I’m not getting any other type of satisfaction other than a few likes and relogs and people liking my profile pic. I reached 100 reblogs on a few original posts. That’s cool but I’m not getting paid or anything like that. I’ve seen some people get 20,000 reblogs and likes and I think “for what?” And Most importantly I don’t think the Kingdom was advanced at all because I only blogged for aesthetic reasons.

I really need to learn my own aesthetic though.

I may still blog on my computer but that may be rare rare. I think I need to move on from dope visuals and lofty dreams of traveling and seeing the world and fly fashion. There’s more to life. I’m in my late 20s and I’m really ready to live a sacrificial life for the Most High.

I’ve seen some of my fav blogs now be defunct and just not be used anymore. Blogs like American Gentility (mines used to be called “Humbled Gentitlity” so we were like bros in preppy fashion) and another about architecture. I liked preppy stuff and the idea of being upper class but the reality is that I’m a solid low middle class lol.

I’m not rich in wealth. But I’m rich in life. I’m learning to believe that.

The more that I get closer to The Most High, the more that the things of the world (that were once pure) become more beige and then khaki and then just downright dirty and impure. I can discern their true inner selves.

But anyway, I’m just writing. By the way, if you’re this specific Homegirl that I hit up in messages, please call that number. Right now I might have eyes only for you.

Grace and Peace,

MM

Every situation in our lives can either lead us closer to God, or further away from Him. It is our choice. He is a God that cannot be moved. He is always going to be in the same place where He knows we can find Him. We are the ones moving. So, if today you are asking yourself, “Where is God?! He feels so far.” Know that He is never too far from you, you need only to seek Him out. Call on His name. He’s waiting for you to come back. He loves you.
