I Am Loved (10/25/13)

*The topic of the most recent L.O.V.E. Meeting was "Powerful Women. . . Powerful Words!" so I decided to write an affirmation for my L.O.V.E.ly Ladies.  Sometimes we need reminders. . .* 

I Am Loved 

I have been wonderfully and fearfully made!  I can walk in confidence because God has created me for a reason!  He will equip me for every assignment that I am meant to accomplish. 
Even when I face challenges, I will not give up.  God holds my world!  He has a plan for my life and will be with me- every step of the way.  I will Rejoice in the Lord and remember that His Joy is My Strength! 
As each day goes by, I will not sweat the small stuff.  Iā€™ll focus on those things that are important to me and pray for wisdom when dealing with difficult situations. 
I will not be bound by fear, guilt or pressure from other peopleā€™s expectations or opinions of me.  I will live by faith!  All things are possible with God.  As long as there is breath in my body, every single day is an opportunity to fulfill His purpose for my life.
I will present my life as a sacrifice before God and apply His Word to my life.  I will strive to be an accurate reflection of His Love so that others will be drawn to Him.  I want to live in a way that will bring glory to His Name.  I want to make Him smile!
I am grateful to know that I have sisters and friends who are praying for me.  We will hold each other accountable and support each other through this journey.  We will continue to Love God, ourselves and others!  I will always remember that. . .
I AM LOVED!

The Unexpected Temptation

I know. . . It's been time for me to write something new.šŸ™ˆ However, coming across this video from Jackie Hill Perry to prompted me to actually get this post out. One line pierced my heart. "When you have a gift that involves words, one of the ways the enemy will tempt you is to be silent." Wow!  I hone stly think silence is one of the last things that comes to mind when people think of temptation. According to Oxford Languages, the definition of temptation is  the desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise. I can hear someone asking, "How can silence be wrong or unwise?"  Oh. . . Hold on for just a minute and it will come together. There are times when our obedience [to speak] may be the key to someone else's blessing . Your words and actions could essentially provide healing for your brother or sister in Christ! In the book of Revelation, we read, "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.....

Let It Go {One Year of Freedom}

"...let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us." - Hebrews 12:1 (KJV)  **If you don't get anything else out of this post, I pray that you realize. . . you really can do all things through Christ - especially when your desire is to please Him! He will strengthen you to walk uprightly before Him.** ---------- Believe me when I say. . . Knowing what you need to do is very  different from actually doing it. Sometimes it is difficult to do what we know is right. That's where I found myself, in November and December of 2022. Let me take you back. . . As a single woman (just in case anybody needs clarification šŸ˜‰), I was opening myself up to meeting guys and getting to know them when I crossed paths with  Royal . Initially, we seemed to have quite a few things in common: faith, a desire to serve our communities, a strong love for our families, and. . . a way with words. (*insert face...

7 Revelations for 37

I really was trying to get through this birthday- well- get away with not writing anything specific, but all of a sudden, ideas started flowing. So. . . Here are 7 Revelations that I am trying to be mindful of as I go through Year 37. 1. Proverbs 4:23 is a command (not a suggestion). It reads, "Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life (AMP)." Other translations say to keep or guard  your heart. . . In other words, be selective and protect it. Watch what you allow to enter your heart. Seeds may be planted by various circumstances, people with whom you interact, etc. but you do not need to allow everything to take root. Things like bitterness, frustration, and envy will try to find a home within you.  Beware: Whatever you allow to take root in your heart will be reflected through your actions! 2. This goes right with Point #1. Be willing to have uncomfortable conversations. Clearing the air can also help to keep your heart [and spirit] c...
