We must first know what Kairos is defined as. According to Merriam Webster, it's: a time when conditions are right for the accomplishment of a crucial action : the opportune and decisive moment

This Greek word is used by Christians. It's described as a moment with God that just changes everything. It changes your perspective with something, a situation. It's a moment that changes your direction that you were once walking. It's words spoken to you engraved to your spirit and it becomes apart of your identity. These words shake us on the inside with new since of power and passion, we then live according to reach that Kairos word.

When we are in the presence of Jesus, anything can happen. He can speak words to us that heals us more deeply than it would take a person to try and heal us. He can heal us of emotional or physical hurt. When we get into his presence for worship or praise, we position our self's for his spirit. We invite him to come and we are overwhelmed by his glory.

The word, or can even be a phrase or image, will change us in a few ways. That Kairos word, will show us a part of our identity, so we pursue that by either laying down things, or simply praising him for it. To continue to run the race that we are called to.

There is a difference in a prophetic word and a Kairos word. Both are important. Prophetic words give you an insight in a situation that lets you know that God is aware and there. These words can heal us, guide us, etc.. A Kairos word, is a word that years, from now, we can look back and know that that word given to us, was indeed a part of and reason for where you are now. When you get either of these, pray about it. Read scripture and make sure that it's biblical. Many times, if it's a Kairos word, that word will rescuer over your life. Last year I was on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic and a pastor at the church told me many words. He told me I had the gift of healing. Months after, I was at this special church event by Ryan Lastrange. There he told me that I had healing hands. Years before that this lady told me that at a church called Awaken City. All three people have no clue who each other are, but they all were hearing from one person, Holy Spirit.

Today, there are specific songs and albums that carry an anointing like no other, because those where songs that were given to me during a time of first discovering Jesus! So many times, I would find my self in my bed room and Jesus would just ask me, "Do you trust me?". It would be like the scene in the bible that Jesus is asking Peter if he loves him. I told Jesus, "Yes, of course I love you". Now, I have a bracelet that says trust on it. In any season of life I walk threw, I can look back and remember when I told him that I did trust him. I can look back and see all the times that he really has been good and faithful.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
