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 :)

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...

A Worship that Pleases God

Ask yourself: Do I spend time worshiping enough? Is my life truly pleasing the Lord? How do I know I really love the Lord with all that is in me? On today's blog I am gonna share with y'all what God has shown me recently. I just love when God works in my life, but, in order to continue living for him how I should, it's gonna take a great deal more than just rushing through my morning chapter, and a quick prayer everyday. I hope, with Gods help, that I can be a help with y'all in this area! The first question I said to ask yourself was: Do I spend time worshiping enough? Worship is certainly not meant JUST for church! We should worship God in our everyday lives. If you only worship the Lord on Sundays and Wednesdays, that's your first problem. To keep that good relationship and fellowship with God, you need to maintain a worshiping lifestyle. I heard someone say, It's so much easier to live a christian life if you get saved! This could be true in your life...

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...
