Hit em' Up High

Up-do hairstyle

I styled my hair while it was wet. I used Let's Jam mega hold gel to slick up sides and back. Pinned my hair up. I made big twists on the top, to make a sort of curly roll. I used the leg part of a stocking to hold my hair in place overnight. In the morning, I took out the twists, rolled the top of my hair, pinned it, and then I was set to go! So happy styling...

Twirl divine

Here is a two-stranded twist style.
The sides are in two-stranded cornrows.
I pin-curled the two stranded twists in the back.
A similar style I did on my guinea pig, Sandra
She has shorter hair and it still works...so...
...happy twisting!

AND b.e.long.

New Day, New Mercies

"Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD and delight in his salvation. My whole being will exclaim, "Who is like you, O LORD? Your love is faithful, even the clouds in the sky can depend on you. Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness? No. I will extol You oh God! I will bless you every time I take a breath; My arms wave like banners of praise to you."
It is a new day! Thursday to be exact :) And I take this time to give praise and thanks to my Maker and King. Even though I am extremely tired from all this school work right now, my soul delights to know that He is my strength and sustainer.
Take a moment to reflect on His goodness. Can't recall the last time you experienced His goodness? Breathe in...then breathe out. God's goodness. For "if God were to take back His Spirit, and withdraw His breath, all life would cease, and humanity would turn again to dust" (Job 34:14-15). Realizing that if He withdrew His breath for a moment, I would cease to exist; I use my breath to say thank you Father!
