DEAL Breakers Before The Ring

Hey sisters!

I just did a YouTube video on "Deal-breakers before the Ring." You may be married & happy-- but check it out & if it's on your heart-- share it with a single friend. I think it's so important to remind women not to settle prior to the ring. I know life gets hard, you may be tired of being single or lonely but a ring will only amplify your inward struggles. Let's call what some of these relationships are: self-led, not God-led. 

So, check out the video:

Love ya'll,

No need for frustration

Frustration is a painful, debilitating feeling that can often cause you to do things you’ll regret. So choose to quickly let it go.

Frustration, as automatic and overpowering as it may seem, is a choice. And you can always make a different choice.

The habit of reacting in frustration is just that, a habit. Like any other habit you’ve developed, you can get rid of it when you choose.

Yes, life regularly presents you with difficult dilemmas for which frustration is a perfectly understandable reaction. Other than grabbing your attention, however, your frustration never does accomplish much.

So once you’re aware of the frustrating situation, make the choice to find a more useful, effective response. Step back from the desire for instant drama, and work on creating some long-term positive results.

Channel the high-powered energy of frustration into intentional, focused, positive action. Give yourself the option to act effectively and appropriately, and you’ll find you have no need for frustration.

Serinity Prayer

I have been experiencing some anxiety here lately. I do not know where it is coming from or why it is even present, but the only way I know how to combat it is with prayer. I know that God hears our petitions we put before him daily, but I really need for Him to move supernaturally in my thinking. Yes, even I have issues with positive thinking. I think it has emerged from just people expecting a lot of me, and I of myself. I know that God is the only person that can help me. So I turn to him every day for help. As I was Goggling a prayer for positive thinking the "Serenity Prayer" came up and as I read each line a peace fell on me and I knew it was the Holy Spirit. So, if you are standing in need of positive thinking and overall peace read this prayer, and know that God is with you through this struggle. You are NOT ALONE!!

That ministered to me.... I’m so thankful... that even as I type I can feel my healing... I believe that it is healthy and necessary to speak against what you are struggling with... to acknowledge that "yes, I may be facing this issue today, but MY GOD is GREATER!!" Just because it is like this today, tomorrow WON’T BE LIKE THIS!! I CAN HAVE WHAT GOD HAS PROMISED ME, I ALEADY WON!! HALLELUJAH!!!

So if you were like me and had some negative thinking this morning, pray this prayer and be changed! Believe that you healing lives within the heart of your prayers..



God, grant me the Serenity
To accept the things I cannot change…
Courage to change the things I can,
And Wisdom to know the difference. 
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace.
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it.
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His will.
That I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with Him forever in the next.
Amen.

Venting/Rant End of January 2014

Self evaluation is something that we should all invest time in on a daily basis. I know for me it is imperative. With the month of January coming to an end I wrote out a list of accomplishments, and to be honest it wasn't filled with a list of life changing strides. I believe this is due to the fact that I didn't initially set goals. I just was "going with the flow." Now as for the month of February, I have written out a list of goals for the major four areas of my life: Ministry, Family, Personal, Work. I want to excel in the year of 2014 and this is a habit that I want to begin doing. I believe that it is those small decisions that we make daily that surmount to our larger goals. I think it's great to have yearly goals, but how will you reach them if monthly you are just alive, but now living daily.

I am in school and to be honest I have NOT been putting my best foot forward. I have been doing my tests, going to class, etc. but I have not really been putting in the necessary time to be as successful in school as I could be. I think I treated school like another chore, and not really enjoying it, just doing it because I said I would. Gotta do better…

My hair is falling OUT! What the What.... So after you have a baby if you are fortunate enough to not have postpartum shedding... GOD BLESS YOU! WOO! However, if you are like the rest of us and your hair sheds like crazy then... YEA... GOD BLESS US TOO! LOL I know it is a hormonal thing and I know this too shall pass but still... it is to say the least... unnerving. But GOD, so God reminded me in the mist of me washing my hair one day that, that's what my relationship looks like with Him, falling out piece by piece. Just as I take time out each week to do my hair, I need to daily take care of my relationship with HIM as well!

Let's talk about this Janelle Mona'e CD... it is awesomesauce in my ears... very well thought out music... I'm enjoying every track..take a listen..

What else...I have lost weight and I feel great! However, the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said I need to eat better food, because yea... she goes in on the Oreos... I just think they taste so amazing... DONT JUDGE ME! We all have problems..I'm just the first to admit it.. LOL (On My Kanye)

Can Christians listen to "worldly music" just like everything else, anything that is consumed too much can be bad for you... #jussaying #balanceiskey...


What did I learn through all this:
I really love life...and I wanna keep on living... I am thankful for my life... God is Great...

Making Adjustments

Success is never achieved in a straight line. Although it’s great to carefully put together workable, realistic plans, life doesn’t always go according to plan.

Yet even when conditions change quickly and dramatically, success is still possible. To succeed in such a world as this, you must be willing to constantly adapt.

When something fails to go the way you planned, it’s not the end of the world. In fact, things could eventually turn out to be even better than you planned.

Regardless of what happens or fails to happen, you can choose to successfully work it into your path forward. Instead of making judgments about what you cannot control, make adjustments in those things you can control.

It might be nice if everything were to play out according to your plan, but the thing is, it won’t.

There will most certainly be surprises, so you might as well find a way to make positive use of them.

Don’t give up on your goals or dreams just because things change. Adapt, make adjustments, and make every turn of events move you forward.
