It's Just Necessary!

-

It wasn't until the last few years that I started to understand the importance of self-care and self- acknowledgment. The self game is very strong now in my life. Not only have I achieved self-care, self-acknowledgement, self-confidence, and self-worth, I now have self-forgiveness. That one is the largest self-forgiveness! Self-forgiveness is what keeps a lot of us in bondage, because we are normally harder on ourselves than the ones around us. Romans 8:1 (NIV) Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Colossians 1:17 (NIV) He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. Also, we tend to replay things in our minds giving us the possibility of different resolutions. However, hindsight is always 20/20. 

As we grow older and possibly gain more wisdom we find out that some things are just necessary. Some decisions are necessary although they still may be very painful to make. To be honest sometimes there are some hard lessons that come under the brim of necessary. The next thing that we have to do is to be obedient. Obedience is the key to unlocks the door to everything that need and want. But the Father wants us to learn to endure just as Jesus our Lord and Savior did.  

John 8:12 (NIV)When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” The things this life brings are not always certain. However, it is knowing the word of God for yourself that keeps us going. Keep pushing towards the goals we have set before ourselves. Once that goal no matter how big or small is accomplished your will see the path you took was necessary. . 

Remember this scripture as you continue to conquer those goals.   Philippians 2:13 (NIV) for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

Our Great Year of 2023!

-
Inside the gift of the year of 2023, I have learned so much about myself. People can tell you about their trials and tribulations however it does not resonate until you become them. For so long I have been so sure of myself. I have been sure of the goals that I set forth being accomplished. The friendships and other family relationships have been tested and for once not knowing where they stand. The mother that I have been, but this great year of 2023 has become the year of unsurities (don't know if that's a word), I have played the follower when I was supposed to lead and I led when I was supposed to follow. I guess this is what life is. It created something in me as I reflect today on it that revealed all of my flaws to me. It showed my human side to my children who believed that I was superhuman for some reason. It made me question where I was on God's list. You know how trials come in and you can't see anything outside of your circumstances. This was me.  I have cri

Willingness for Obedience

-
Willingness for Obedience! In the midst of the hustle and bustle. We so quickly and unintentionally ignore the quiet, still small voice of the holy spirit. When this happens, we tend to miss out on blessings or intricate details of valuable instructions. These directions could keep us from falling into the next pit or it could guide us into an abundance of blessings. If only we yield to His voice. The larger  question is even if we receive the guidance, are we willing to obey? My truth is I am realizing my answer has been it depends on what it is that God is asking me to do. How many of you can honestly agree? And you know what it is okay to agree with this. I have both of my hands up in agreement because there is no shame in growth. We have to get to the place of correction and change. These are some questions I find myself asking when God tells me to do something. Here are some of the examples of the questions: How much of myself do I have to expose? How long do I have to go thro

Ye of Little Faith

 Matthew 17:20  'And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. ' Matthew 17:20.       https://my.bible.com/bible/1/MAT.17.20 Oh my. When this title was deposited inside of me. I thought of myself and no one else. You know the truth of the matter is I am incredibly talented. Yes, it is okay to call yourself talented. God instilled Greatness in each one of us. However, I always seem to veer away from the things that God calls me to. It has been like I am so scared of success, but what if, just what if... Those questions tend to be negative before positive as I attempt to answer them for myself. I have grown to the point now where the answer to these questions has become increasingly positive. But there are still things that I am working on.   When we say what if it is as if God w
