Midday Madness….

I was having a conversation with one of my associates and what kept coming out her mouth was negativity and dependency on a man.  Not THE MAN a man.  So I got a little irritated and before you know it I was trying to force her to see the good in her and what she can accomplish if she relied solely on God and her own power that He has equipped her with.

I prayed and felt God saying:

Stop trying to force yourself, your opinion, your views and your greatness on others.  I am in charge and I give them free will.  I told God that I want her to see to which He replied I do too but Im a gentlemen and they have to see for themselves.

Alot of times we see soooo much potential in people that they fail to see in themselves, however we must step back and reassure them that we are there for them but we can not force our will or Gods will on their lives.  We must remain encouraging, less judgemental, and show love.

Enjoy the rest of your day loves…

Happy New Year

This year I embarked on the Jump movement.  Now while it may seem easy to some of you I have so many dreams and goals it was a struggle for me.  So while meditating God whispered rush and slow down.  My mind was so congested that I really had to sit be still and ask myself what did I want to do.  

While doing this I came up with a solution that was so easy it was actually self education.  So while I work I will earn my accounting certificate so that after this year I can be my own boss and also put myself thru nursing school.   The certification is kinda expensive but its online and it allows me to still work and be a single parent.

I recommend you guys use this year as your jump year.  I believe that we should set ourselves up to be God dependent and self sufficient.  

I am an entrepreneur at heart.  I want to be able to homeschooling my children, cook for my husband, run multiple successful businesses all in the comfort of my own home or office.  I believe God will make this possible with the power that He upholds……..

Stay tuned 2017 year of success….

Damage Control…

 

Isaiah 43:18-20New International Version (NIV)

¹⁸ “Forget the former things;
    do not dwell on the past.
¹⁹ 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.
²⁰ The wild animals honor me,
    the jackals and the owls,
because I provide water in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen,

If we focus on the old things in life we can not be blessed into our future.  This is food for thought that applies not only to relationships but mind frames, actions, experiences.  God wants to bring something new in our lives  so we must shift our mind frames consciously and subconsciously so that we can walk into our DESTINY….

ENJOY UR DAY LOVED ONES

Great Morning,

During this morning prayer I asked God what to read and He said John 2.  Eventhough I am past that chapter I was obeidant and decided to read once again. (In that tone… *Deep sigh*  lol)

John 2 starts out with Jesus being at a party and performing His first miracle of turning water to wine.  But during this process something strange happens.

Berean Study Bible John 2:4 “Woman, why does this concern us?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.” See Mary was worried about something that did not even concern her.  In a sense I can hear God saying mind your business please.  There are numerous occasions where I have minded other people’s business so this stuck out to me subconsciously and consciously.  If I am too busy in the affairs of others how can I mind my own, keep my own, stay focused on the goals and dreams God has placed in my heart?  I CANT…. In order to mind my business I have to submit my prayers, business, and others business to God and keep moving.  I don’t get to stop and contemplate others business because THAT DOES NOT CONCERN ME. TODAY I ASK GOD TO HELP US MIND OUR BUSINESS AND BE ABOUT OUR FATHERS WORK ESPECIALLY ME… LOL HAPPY MONDAY PEOPLE

ITS BEEN A LONG TIME…… LOL

First of all to all my followers and the WordPress community SORRY…  I haven’t really been taking this blogging thing seriously and honestly as my outlet, I have suffered.  I believe in a community where we build each other and show love and WordPress has given me that.

So…….  I got officially divorced 2 weeks ago.  Now, to those who have been following me, yall know that I advocated for making a marriage work & believed God would restore my marriage.  However, something’s aren’t worth restoring.  After much prayer and thought, I realized both me and my ex husband had broken the marriage vows a long time ago in whatever ways, and God wanted better for me because this marriage wasn’t in His plans it was mines….

Now this article is just a quick introduction on what will be many countless attempts to save myself the trouble of marrying again in vain and trusting God in my everyday life.  Yes this will be my journey of dating, waiting (remaining abstinent), and just growing as an individual.  I don’t have everything planned out and really don’t know where God has me going BUT I am trusting Him more and more daily, as He has my best interest at Heart.

 

WELCOME TO TO THE NEXT CHAPTER… MY LIFE AFTER DIVORCE AND THE WAIT GAME…😂😂😂😂😂

Morning Minutes; Seasons

This morning on the way to work I noticed a swift change in the seasons.  This made me think of the seasons of life and I wanted to probe a question: Which season are you in?

This season in my life Im mourning and healing alot.  As I celebrated my 2nd Anniversary, reality hit me that although married 2 years I have been single just the same.  I also realized Ive lost alot and succumb to alot during the last 2 years.

It wasnt until I submitted to the process and aLlowed God to enter into the season to heal me and restore that I actually knew what it meant and felt what it meant to let go.

Leting go is releasing the need to control and allowing yourself to feel the pain.  This season holds alot of tears, fears, and anger.  But most importantly, this season holds healing and change, both internally and externally.

So as I walk thru this season, taking my time not to rush it, I allow myself to feel.  This means you may see me crying in the grocery store or laughing hysterically for no reason that the eyes can see.  This doesnt mean im crazy this is just me allowing God and my soul to simply be….

I want to encourage others to join the healing bandwagon and I want to discourage some to not judge.

You may not understand the process but everything is working out for our good…

HAPPY WEDNESDAY GOOD PEOPLE..

Afternon Appetizer; Hope & Glory Restored

Over the past couple of days, I felt a sense of sadness, grief, & anger.  This coupled with the holidays and a need to belong made me hopeless.

To the naked eye my situation is ideal.  I have my health, 3 beautiful boys, a prominent job, and excellent benefits. But, on the inside I still desire more.  More from my family, friends, God, and marriage.

On the way to church I let out all my frustrations to my dear friend kiki.  She informed me she understood but also to move on and remain grateful for what I did have and what God was doing.  As she started naming my blessings, I marvelled at the fact that while I am going thru deep despair, God is overflowing me with His blessings and favor.  She reminded me that to move on is to focus on those things and be grateful.

I knew that call was heavensent but when I entered into church the preacher spoke on Romans.  God restoring Hope….

God spoke to me in 2 distinct ways from 2 different people with the same message.  Remain hopeful in your circumstances in ME AND U WILL BE BLESSED!!!!

To those who have lost hope, take inventory of the blessings you have and you too will see that your situation may not be ideal, but God is still in the blessing business.

HAPPY SUNDAY GOOD PEOPLE

Afternoon Appetizer; Mental Torment

And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on earth. (Colossians 3:2 AMP)

This morning, along with other days, I have been hit with the plague of mental torment.  I have allowed the devil to play thoughts, scenes, and etc in my mind, that at times caused me to be emotionally drained and sprained.

From the fear of losing my newfound job, to my husbands betrayal and his mistress.

These tactics are satans tricks for discouragement.  He uses these not only to distract us but to make us less useful and resourceful.  These times he binds our mines with foolishness can be used for our production of services to and for God.

In other words, he wants to keep us from our destiny.

 I am the first to admit that dealing with certain circumstances, its hard not to think about them, and even harder not to talk about them.  I want to encourage you because there is hope.

I have recieved alot of healing from this bondage by simply replacing my thought process with something else Godly or positive.  You see, its  not enough to just cast the thought down, you have to replace it.  Because if the devil can get a grip on your mind, the rest will follow.  I havent done my affirmations in days but this skill helps me replace those damaging thoughts.  Damaging to me and my health and ultimately, my healing process.

I believe, if we tell people how not to think of something, AND how to replace those thoughts more change will occur.  Many times people have told me dont think like that or talk  like that.  But never shared with me exactly what to do in order to get those thoughts out of my mind permanently.

There is a war going on overr your mind.  The mind and tongue are very powerful tools because where ever they go the rest will follow.

HAPPY WEDNESDAY YOU GUYS

😘😘😘😘

Morning Minutes; A personal touch….

This morning I wanted to write something unedited unscripted straight from my thoughts. I have been married almost 2 years seperated almost the same time. God had been prompting me to let go but I really didnt understand, seeing as though He hates divorce.

The light bulb finally went off yesterday. Letting go isnt giving up or throwing it away. Letting go is moving forward and shifting my focus.

I speak to the women and men
going thru seperation or maybe a divorce. Let go. Let God. Pray about your husband and marriage but shift your focus to you. Figure out what God wants to change in you and become closer to Him. Your focus should be on pleasing Him and the rest will follow.

It wasnt until last night that I finally understand what the phrase meant. I am hopeful for a restored marriage, however I am forever blessed for the dramatic change that the Father has brought in me. Even if the marriage does not work, I take pride in knowing that the event, though extremely painful, brought me into a full blown relationship with God.

If this is you, in this story as well, I want to send a prayer to you today.

Dear Heavenly Father,
I thank you for this sister or brother reading this. I thank you that they want to honor your word and omit divorce. I thank you for their boldness in coming to you in prayer. Right now Father their is an epidemic going on to ruin bonds and vows. We cast that down in the name of Jesus. Now I ask that you use this time to bring us who are suffering closer and back to you. Transform our character, our mind, our heart to shift the focus off of self, our marriage, and our spouse and shift it back to U. GOD GIVE US THAT JOY AND HAPPINESS BACK THAT ONLY COMES THRU U. FILL ALL VOIDS OF LONLINESS LOVE AND BITTERNESS AND ANY LACK. I THANK U FOR DOING IT NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT FOR THE PERSON READING THIS. I ALSO THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THE COURAGE TO FINALLY LET GO. IN JESUS NAME AMEN

MY EVENING EDIBLES… Goodnight Folks!!!!
