Daily Soul Food

Learning daily that self love is necessary to be the best version of “you” that you can be. You can’t let your life’s mission be to give love to others and forget to love yourself first. As I continue on my growth journey, I now understand that loving yourself first is when your life will align with your purpose.

Love you more❤️,

Learning to Love the Girl I Once Was on the Journey to Becoming the Woman I am Today

Looking back at the girl I used to be and the woman I’m becoming, I realized that every insecure thought, loss, and painful experience had a predestined purpose in my life. They were all necessary to help shape me into the strong, unbreakable, and graceful woman that stands before you today.

I once tried to run away from things that didn’t fit into the illusion of sunshine and rainbows that I imagined for my life’s journey. I now realize that learning to accept things along your path that force you to leap out of your comfort zone will bring out your inner strength and resilience to face hardships. One’s growth is a remnant of the past and proof that there is great promise in the future that lies ahead. Be encouraged! Grow gracefully!

Love,

Let Faith Carry You Through…Your Growth Depends On It

In this season of brokenness, I can truly say that my faith has been tested to the max. There are times that I felt like I just couldn’t push through it any longer and giving up hope was the only option. I began to question: Why am I experiencing so much pain and disappointment in my life? God is constantly reminding me that he has me in his hand and that it is all to make me a stronger person in the end. The picture is now clearer that I have a greater purpose to fulfill. Each challenging experience along life’s journey is to help you grow into the person that God already designed you to become. I have learned that pain is needed in the process of growth to stretch your faith and ability to trust completely in God to deliver you out of the trial. I hope this encourages someone and inspires them to push through difficult times even when it seems like it is impossible to do. Just know that you are being elevated to a higher level and through your story someone will be lifted too. Also, know that God will restore everything that you may have lost in his perfect timing.

Stay encouraged,

Faith Over Fear

 

Have you ever been going through life, feeling as if you are not actually living it? I have felt that way many times and one day I decided to take a leap of faith and start a new chapter of life by and moving to a new state. I must admit I pondered over this decision for three years with thoughts of doubt and fear causing me to lose sight of my dreams. At the start of 2018, I decided that changing my mindset was the first step to make my dream a reality. In order to change your mindset, you must activate your faith.

In three months, my faith helped me to take the steps necessary to plan my move. During the three months, many obstacles stood in my way, but God rewarded my faith and made everything come together in the end. Once I reached my destination doors began to open for me that I felt I was unqualified for, but this was God’s plan all along. I am happy that I chose faith over fear and didn’t pass this chance to chase my dreams. I now realize that we can sometimes hold ourselves back from seizing the opportunity to live the life we were meant to live. This move helped me to take leaps and bounds out of my comfort zone and I am more confident and in expectation of the places God is going to take me. Most importantly, my faith has grown and I trust that I am not alone for God is with me every step of the journey.

Stay encouraged,

Circumstances That Occur in Your Life Are Not A Coincidence, But Preparation For Your Destiny

Have you ever felt like you have been going through life and unfortunate circumstances seem to keep constantly reoccurring? I have felt this way many times and I remember feeling like there was no light at the end of the tunnel. Whenever negative thoughts enter my mind I turn to God for spiritual intervention and he usually comforts me through scriptures. A scripture that reminds me that each circumstance, both good and bad, are all in God’s plan for my life is Jeremiah 29:11:

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end”, (KJV).

I am thankful to now realize that there were lessons learned through each disappointment that equipped me for the journey of the person I’m predestined to become. May whoever is reading this be inspired to keep pursuing a better you that is waiting to come forth.

Song of the Day

Hi Everyone,

I’m reminded in this season to be still and know that God is still in control of every good and bad situation you may face. He wants you to invite him into to your life and spread his light in places of darkness! Please enjoy this song by Travis Greene! This song really inspired me….

Psalms 46:10 KJV

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

My Heart’s Desire

I desire to love and be loved unconditionally 

The way God has intended for love to be

For love to be shown through action and not based solely on attraction

I have discovered I’m worthy and to myself I make this vow

To never settle for less even when it seems hard to take a stand and in times I can’t see how

Being a daughter of the King, I desire a king made for me after God’s own heart

Erasing fear and doubt with unselfish love and consistency from the start

Waiting for my king will take time

I must stay patient, heal, grow, and know that who God has for me will be sublime

Recognizing Purpose In My Pain

I never knew that there was purpose in my pain.

Until life had to die inside of me for my spirit to be reborn again.

God’s love comforted me in my despair and renewed my heart I thought was beyond repair.

I now recognize he was carrying me and preparing me to represent his glory from the start.

Through lyrical dance, song, and inspirational words I will share my testimony, may my purpose be fulfilled.

My desire is to spread God’s love to the wounded and broken hearted so they too can be healed.

I’m grateful to recognize the purpose in my pain and through God may your purpose be revealed.
