“For God hath not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.”
2 Timothy 1:7 KJV
Hello family! This scripture has been placed on my heart to share with someone who may be letting fear hold them back from achieving the dreams that God has placed in their heart or living a life of peace and freedom that He intended for them to live. He desires us to live fearlessly , be our best selves, and embrace abundance and beauty of life.
Even in our weakest moments, God’s love and the Holy Spirit empower us to wholeheartedly follow His ways and teachings. Trusting in Him enables us to live without fear, as He has given us the power, love, and a sound mind to overcome it. By choosing faith over fear, we can boldly live as our authentic selves. Who’s ready to embrace faith over fear with me today?
“Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame.”
Song of Songs 8:6 NIV
Hello family! I don’t know who needs to hear this but remember that God loves you fiercely and relentlessly. This scripture is another example of the depth of God’s love and the extent of His commitment to us. His love is strong, reassuring, protective, and infinite.
This model of true love should guide our lives and how we treat others. I’m grateful to finally know its meaning and eager to share it with you. We are connected to His love forever when we surrender our will and open our hearts to receive it. Through His love, we can conquer all obstacles and challenges in life. Only through Him we can live in perfect peace and fulfill our purpose.
“The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom”.
Deuteronomy 28:12-13 NIV
Hello, everyone! This scripture was laid on my heart to share with someone who may be going through a difficult time and needs encouragement. The start of spring has brought me a lot of challenges. I have struggled to adapt to changes and navigate through uncertainties on my journey. During those times when I feel overwhelmed and like I’m losing my faith, God continues to remind me that He is my peace and source of strength. He has revealed to me that the rain I’ve experienced in my life through disappointments and painful experiences was necessary for my spiritual and mental growth.
Just as rain is a necessity for plants to bloom, it’s vital for us to endure such difficult times to develop into the person God intended us to become. As I progress through this season, I will clear my mind and consider this time as a new beginning and rebirth. I am motivated and enthusiastic about the direction that God is leading me towards and the type of woman I am evolving into. Please remember that even when everything seems to be going wrong, we must trust in Him to guide us towards the promise.
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:20 NKJV
Hello family and Happy Resurrection Day! I hope everyone had a great day with their family, friends, and loved ones. Let us take time to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus and his continued presence in our lives. This scripture was laid on my heart to share as a reminder that God is our source of strength to navigate life’s challenges and achieve anything. All we need to do is express our desires, remain grateful, surrender our will, and trust in him to bring them to life. Reassurance from the Holy Spirit within us gives us the strength to overcome all obstacles and succeed. Whenever it feels like God’s presence is absent and I start to lose faith in a situation or circumstance working out in my favor, I am reminded that He is working behind the scenes on my behalf. He turns everything around in a way that surpasses my imagination.
“Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things.”
Philippians 4:8 NIV
Hello everyone! I wanted to share this scripture with you all today because it encourages me when I feel overwhelmed with negative thoughts, emotions, and the noise of world. I’ve found that when I take quiet moments to give thanks and reflect on all the good that God has done in my life, His peace comes over me. During these times, my faith increases, which helps me endure any storm that comes my way.
Remember that He is bigger than any problem you may be facing right now. Keep looking up and don’t focus on the obstacle in front of you. Let’s aim to live a life that pleases Him and spread His goodness to others. This is the key to maintaining peace of mind and experiencing unspeakable joy even when all hope seems lost.
“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.”
Isaiah 43:19 KJV
Hello, Sassy family! Happy New Year! Sorry for checking in so late in the New Year. I hope everyone’s year is off to a great start. This is my first post of 2024 and I’m so glad to be back. I’m not sure if anyone can relate, but January has flown by, and I am still trying to catch up in February.
Each year gives us a chance to make a brand-new start and one step closer to making our dreams a reality. Since New Year’s resolutions are sometimes forgotten after January, I decided to create an action plan that will help keep me focused and motivated to execute each action step in the plan. My action plan for this year includes the following action steps:
Walk boldly in my purpose.
Let faith be bigger than my fear.
Give myself more grace and take one step at a time to achieve a goal.
Embrace all the parts of the woman I am becoming, past and present.
Be grateful for each moment that I have experienced on my journey.
Posture my heart to surrender every aspect of my life to God’s will.
Be more intentional about growing my relationship with God by spending more time with him will help keep me focused and give me the strength to continue taking steps toward living my dream life.
I hope that the action steps I have shared will inspire you to create a personal action plan. The scripture that was laid on my heart to share with you all is Isaiah 43:19. I truly believe that God is doing a new thing within and all around us. We must trust in his plan and embrace the new beginnings.
Whenever I attempt to repeat old patterns of thinking or ways of doing a thing, I find myself feeling extremely uncomfortable and unable to go back to the woman I once was. It’s like when a plant grows new roots and must be repotted to keep it growing and healthy. I now know that God is transforming my mind and preparing me for my destiny.
I’m determined to push forward in faith because my purpose is bigger than me. Each day, I grow more excited for God to reveal more about my purpose, the woman he designed me to be, and to receive all the blessings God has in store this year and I’m believing that he will do the same for you too!
“To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair.
In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the Lord has planted for his own glory.”
Isaiah 61:3 NLT
Hi my spiritual fam! This scripture was laid on my heart to share with you all today. Please be encouraged that times of disappointment, sadness, and uncertainty will not last always.
We must trust God, continue in faith, and believe with our whole hearts that our moment of breakthrough will come.
Whenever doubt comes as a distraction, redirect your thoughts on walking into the promise that God has revealed to you. Everything you lost will be restored. Get ready to receive all the good things that he has in store for you!
Hi, my spiritual family! I’ve been in a season of growth. My faith is being tested to the point where the only thing I can do is put my trust in God when it seems like everything around me is beyond my control. Let this scripture encourage and remind you that you are not alone in challenging times. In these times, we must draw closer to him for strength to overcome any challenge or obstacle that may come our way.
In periods of uncertainty, we must re-train our minds to focus on the plans God has placed in our hearts and tune out the voices of doubt, fear, and worry. We must be still and listen for his voice to comfort, guide, and unveil the next step to take on our journey. Remember that the obstacles we overcome are shaping us into the version of ourselves that God desires for us to become.
As I look back over my life, I can’t recall a time that God has failed me, even when the situation seemed overwhelming and impossible to overcome. With God, all things are made possible if we open our hearts to believe it and let his word order our steps to reach the promise.
“Rejoice Always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NKJV
Hi my spiritual family! Please let this scripture be a reminder that we must praise, pray, and give thanks at all times. These actions activate our joy, peace, and victory.
Through praise we honor, express joy, and gratitude to God for all that he has done, is doing, and will do in our lives. Keeping our hearts in a posture of praise brings deliverance and unlocks blessings.
Praying allows us to open up our hearts to God and consistently communicate with him. He will lead and guide us every step of the journey he has assigned us to go on if we seek him.
Giving thanks to God for the blessings and disappointments positions our hearts to stay in a place of humility and mindfulness. This helps us shift our minds to focus on his plan an the promise that he has placed in our hearts.
We can then surrender our will and look to him to give us unspeakable joy, and peace of mind, and perfect the work he started in our lives. Who is ready to activate their joy, peace, and victory with me?
“You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you.”
Isaiah 26:3 NKJV
Hi my spiritual family! This scripture was laid on my heart to remind you to always keep your mind on God. In my experience when things are out of control, trusting and centering my mind on God calms me. He always keeps his promises and is the solid rock I can stand on in times when I’m uncertain and unstable. His holy spirit gives you peace that can’t be explained. It empowers you to overcome whatever life throws your way to distract you and cause you to focus on unfortunate circumstances.
Always remember that he is sovereign, bigger than any problem or situation. We must lean into him so that he can reveal the depths of his character to us. By depending on him with our whole hearts, we are surrendering our will and letting go of control over the outcome of the circumstance. This increases our faith in him which gives us the strength to endure until the end of a difficult season. Who will you put your trust in today?
Sassy. Spirit. Savvy
