“For with God, nothing will be impossible”.

Luke 1:37 NKJV

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.

Love Always,

Ronni Lauren💋

“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?

Love Always,

💗Ronni Lauren

Sassy State of Mind💋….

Hi Sassy fam! This quote affirmed me and wanted to share it with you! All my life I have struggled with acceptance and embracing the real me. In this season of growth and renewal, I have discovered my identity and purpose. I

am finally able to be unapologetically me without caring about who is unable to accept this version of myself. Always remember that you God intentionally made you the way you are for his plan and purpose.

The world needs you just the way you are to shine your light in the midst of the darkness. Your light was meant to shine to show people the way to hope and love!

Be fearlessly you,

💗Ronni Lauren

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?

Love Always,

Ronni Lauren

Letter to My Younger Self…

Dear Ronnibell,

I have some words of encouragement from my heart to share with you. At times you will miss your dad, but you must always remember that he is watching over you from heaven. His contagious smile, fearless spirit, and kind heart lives through you. You were his precious gift. You must remember your value.

In those times when you feel like you don’t fit in, worthy, or loved remember that God loves you. You were fearfully and wonderfully made for his purpose. You are enough and perfect just the way you are.

There will be challenges and disappointments that come to distract you and discourage you from speaking your truth, walking in your purpose.

You must learn to put your faith and trust in God. He will recenter your focus and give you strength to keep going forward on your purpose journey.

Be sure to forgive those who may hurt you along your journey. This is necessary for your heart to heal and to unblock the blessings that are yet to come!

Things may not make since to you now, but as you grow older, God will reveal to you why everything happened in your life, good and bad. Your life is like a puzzle and each piece fits together to create the bigger picture.

People, places, and things that are meant to go with you on your path will align in his timing to help you grow gracefully into the woman you are destined to become.

Love always,

Ronni Lauren💋

Aka “The woman you will become”

Blooming Where You Are

Hi, my Sassy fam! As the beginning of the Spring season gets nearer, I’ve been going through a period of reflection and revival. I’m at a place now on my journey where I can’t go back to the woman I used to be because I have unlearned the victim mindset and the need to be accepted. I know what I deserve, and I no longer feel guilty about setting boundaries, voicing my opinions, and making my expectations known.

I am unapologetically me. I am like a flower that has been planted, cultivated, and ready to bloom in at a set time, and season. I have begun to embrace the dream woman I am becoming, who is worthy to receive love, pursue my passions, and create my dream life.

I’m gaining confidence and committed to showing up for this version of me. It hasn’t been easy and there have been growing pains, but I’m finally able to reflect on past experiences, take the lessons learned, and use them as motivation to propel me forward in hope of the great things that are yet to come.

The scripture that was laid on my heart to share with you today is Jeremiah 24: 6 KJV:

For I will set mine eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down, and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.”

Jeremiah 24:6 KJV

Please be reminded that God’s intention for us is become the best version of ourselves and to unleash great things in our lives. However, he wants to help us grow and mature spiritually to prepare us for any obstacles and challenges we may experience along the way to the destination. If we put our trust and lean into him, he will build us up and give us strength when we are weak, joy in sadness, safety in times of fear, and beauty in the ashes.

Remember to bloom where you are, and that God has you planted there for a reason. If you take the time to look at the lessons and growth opportunities, you will continue to move closer to the place he desires for you to elevate to. Don’t let distractions knock you off the path that God has set for you. If we keep our eyes on him, he will lead and guide us every step of the way.

Bloom gracefully,

Ronni Lauren💋

Hello Spring! Let the Rebirth Begin!

Hi Sassy squad! Spring is in the air! It is truly one of my favorite seasons. I feel rejuvenated and refreshed. The sunshine smiles on my skin. Nature comes back to life after the cold storms of winter.

The trees start to flourish and the flowers bloom. Animals come out of hibernation and become active again. In the same way that rebirth occurs in nature it can happen in your life also.

Rebirth can only begin once you release anything that hinders you from becoming your best self or living your dream life. Who will join me in living their best life in this season and many to come. Tis the season of rebirth!

Love Always,

Ronni Lauren💋

A Renewed Heart: Healed and Open to Love

Hi, Sassy squad! February, the month of love is quickly approaching and I wanted to share with you what was laid on my heart. On my self-love journey, I have been unlearning all that I once knew about love. I once thought that love was putting others’ desires and needs above myself. I was so afraid of losing people in my life that I went out of my way to make them happy while losing myself in the process. God healed my heart by first reminding me how much he loves me and teaching me how to love myself.

"We love because he first loved us."
1 John 4:19 NIV

After discovering self-love, he helped me to see that I am worthy of receiving the love that I give to others. He helped me discover that the only way to receive the type of love I desire, is to strive to be a reflection of the love that I desire by releasing anything that is unclean in my heart. I took accountability and began the deeper healing work by forgiving myself and others who have hurt me.  

This wasn’t easy, but throughout the healing process, God kept reminding me that he wants the best for me and for me to become the best version of myself. He revealed to me that healing is necessary to live a life of peace, freedom, and to unblock the blessings that he has in store for me.

"Above all else, guard your heart, 
for everything you do flows from it."
Proverbs 4:23 NIV

My heart is renewed, open, and ready to accept love as my higher self, the woman I am becoming. I have a healthier perspective on love. It is truly a gift that can not be controlled or contained. It is meant to be reciprocated and not one-sided. It is not meant to be chased, but it will find me at its appointed time. In love, there is value and respect. There is compassion, patience, and safety. God is love. We were created in his image. Love is you and me!

Love always,

Ronni Lauren

Happy New Year, New Goals, Dreams Revived!

Hi, my Sassy fam! I can’t believe it’s the last day of 2022…Happy New Year!!!  May your year be blessed and overflowing with happiness and abundance. I must say that 2022 was the year of walking into my purpose for me. I started my self-love journey in 2021 and I rediscovered that I am worthy of love and that God intentionally created me just the way I am.

This revelation helped me to walk fearlessly in my purpose to spread God’s love, empower women to live boldly, use their voices, and embrace their beauty inside and out in 2022. I’m so grateful to you all for allowing me to take you along on this purpose journey with me and I hope that we can continue to grow together into who we are destined to become.

I’m amazed at where I am now on my journey and excited about the woman I am becoming. Facing my fears of walking in my purpose has redirected my focus and reignited my drive and determination to make my dreams come true in 2023. I hope that you will be inspired to go after your dreams in the new year. Please be encouraged and know that a delayed dream is not a denial. I am a witness that if God placed a dream in your heart, he will bring it to pass even if it doesn’t manifest when you expect it to.

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?

I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.

Isaiah 43:14 NIV

Be Blessed!

Ronni Lauren

Hope for the Holidays🙏🏾…

Hello, Sassy fam! The holiday season is upon us, also known as the most wonderful time of the year! I remember thinking as a child that Christmas was all about giving and receiving gifts. I learned later as I grew older that this season is about so much more. The birth of Jesus was just the beginning of miracles in this season. Jesus is our gift of everlasting love and salvation. We were created in His image to reflect his love and share it with others.

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.”

Ephesians 2:10 KJV

Spreading the good news of who He is and displaying acts of love to others is our way of giving thanks to God for this gift of his son, Jesus. The more we become like Jesus through our thoughts and lifestyle, the more we put our faith into action. We become a living reflection of who He is and a light to the world.  Please remember that this season is bigger than personal gain. It is about sharing with others that they too can have hope in times of despair and discouragement if they believe and put their trust in Him. May this season fill you with an abundance of hope, joy, peace, love, and magical memories with your loved ones.

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Romans 15:13 KJV

Happy Holidays!

Ronni Lauren💋
