Getting to know Me!

Hey Y'all! I'm Tatum, and this is my blog, 'Magnolia Belle'. Born and raised in North Carolina, I've always had a desire to share my Southern lifestyle with others. So, a little about me: I'm 19 years old. I love singing and writing. God blessed me with an ear for music. I love sharing my style. Modesty is the best policy. Give me Italian food for the rest of my life, and I'll be satisfied! I am currently in my second year of college, but still, have no idea "what I wanna be when I grow up". Photography is a big part of my life, and I love doing it. I have the best parents in the World, a crazy sister, and two brothers. Family means everything to me. As for the name of my blog, "Magnolia Belle", the magnolia is my favourite flower because number one they're common among southern women, and number two they represent nobility and dignity in a lady. Most people describe me as being classy by how I dress and act, and that is where the name belle came from! I am as girly as girly gets y'all, but I also ain't afraid to get my hands dirty either! Welcome to Tatum's world :)

Praise Him With Your Whole Heart

So, this blog is probably gonna be a bit scattered just because this has been on my heart for the past couple of weeks, and I just couldn't find the words to say. But, after pondering on it for a while, and doing some research, I think I can finally sit down and write up a blog for y'all! On my phone I have the "Bible by Tecarta" app, and it notifies each morning with a daily Bible verse. A couple weeks back I woke up to Mark 7:20-23 , and God quickly laid it on my heart to read that whole chapter. So, I did, and wow. It's one of those moments where you know you've been praying for something, and God just finally shows you what to do, or how to fix it. Anyone else know how that feels? When I came to verse 6, I began to cry. It says: "He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrisies, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me." I'd recently been praying for God to help...

Dare To Be a Deborah

Hey Y'all! It's been a few weeks since I last blogged, and I am SO SORRY!! With the Holidays rolling around it's been pretty busy. These past few weeks I've been studying about a woman named Deborah from the book of Judges. Some may know who I'm talking about, and some may not. My Pastor has been going through the book of Judges on Wednesday nights, and I absolutely love it! A few weeks ago we got to the story of Deborah and Barak. I had already been thinking about doing a study on a woman in the Bible, and then God told me she was my woman! So, I read, studied, and researched, and now I'm gonna share with y'all what God gave me.      If you know anything about the book of Judges, you know it's all about Israel's  up and down life of serving the Lord. One day they wanted to do right, and the next they were right back to sinning. So, God raised up these Judges to lead them. In chapter 4, God raises up a woman Judge named Deborah. Just like always, I...

How to Be Spiritually Minded in a World Where it Seems Impossible

I made a post on Instagram recently telling everyone I've been going through the books of Romans and Daniel. Digging deeper into both of them has been SO much fun, but today I want to focus on chapter 8 of Romans. First off I want to say it is NOT hard if you really want it. Having the mindset to serve Christ is so much easier when you really strive to do what's right in God's eyes. So, that being said, how do we stay spiritually minded in a World where it seems "IMPOSSIBLE"? I'm gonna give a list of some things that I KNOW (from experience) ruin our minds, and make us want to live in ways we shouldn't want to.  1. MUSIC      Boy, has this ruined me MANY times! It seems like music is that one HUGE problem most youth have. And yes, people call "my kind of people" crazy for our view on what music you should listen to, but it really does matter!! Take King Saul for example. 1 Samuel 16:23 says " And it came to pass, when the  evil  spirit ...
