Combating Natural Hair Racism
Combating Natural Hair Racism
But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the LORD; their vindication will come from me. I, the LORD, have spoken! – Isaiah 54:17
Shopping While Being A Black Christian
Whew… This is a post I really kind of do not want to write because again… I am private. This is for my African American followers! So, as some of you know I am multi-cultural. My man made me take a DNA test because he did not believe I was fully black (he was right). I swore up and down I was all Black but apparently not. The test confirmed that I am Nigerian, Irish, British, Mayan, Argentine, Native American, Bolivian, and Peruvian among some other things.
Follow along as much as you can while I write this.
So I have natural hair (which is why he thought I was mixed because of my hair). My hair does this thing where it is like straight like white people but half-way thick like I am Black… Yeah. But anyways, I was praying and one day God begin to speak to me and he said “stop using the conditioner that you are using because it is racist”.
So, as I am praying, I am sooooo stunned. Because I’m like God, but I have been using it for years. Fastforward as I am doing some shopping, the Lord told me to look at a particular section and it was the “Ethnic” section and there it was … A horse shampoo in the “Ethnic section.” Then God told me to walk to the other “regular” section where typically people of Caucasian descent shop at. To my surprise all the minerals and things we as Black people need for our hair is in their shampoo… but not in ours… we get a horse for our hair products, and they get flowers and watermelon.
The reason I did not want to write this is because I do not tell people what I personally use because some people online are simply weird. But God wanted me to say this. There is no reason that black hair products should have animals on it such as monkeys and horses… But the others do not. I am going to put a picture to show the difference. We need to stop supporting these so-called beauty companies that compare black hair to animals.
Prayer
Father, help me to simply focus on you. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Love Mixed With Faith,
Apostle Diamond S. Chessier

Free From Pain
1 Chronicles 4:9-10Amplified Bible
9 Jabez was more honorable than his brothers; but his mother named him Jabez, saying, “Because I gave birth to him in pain.” 10 Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that You would indeed bless me and enlarge my border [property], and that Your hand would be with me, and You would keep me from evil so that it does not hurt me!” And God granted his request.

When you become a parent, your eyes will be opened to a whole other world. Another world where you realize that your decisions impact your child and yourself as well. When it is just you and bad decisions become a lifestyle, it can be easy to numb the pain. However, when you give birth you realize that some pain cannot be numbed but it must be addressed. That means some relationships have to end, some tears have to be shed, and some lessons have to be learned to provide a better life for your child. Painful decisions that lead to victory seem bleak in the beginning… but in the end the Lord will bless you. When I became pregnant with my daughter the doctor’s told me to terminate her because I would die if I carried her full term. Not only that , people persecuted me and I had no support. My mother’s day was lonely and the pain that I endured cannot even be described. But now, when I look at my daughter Ruth I can say that it was all worth it. Today… view today as your new Mother’s Day. Make the decision that even if it hurts… you will make better decisions for your child or children.
Prayer
Father, help me to rely on you and not toxic relationships. Keep me safe in your arms and away from all hurt, harm, and danger. In Jesus Name, I pray… Thank God, Amen.
