Believe it or not guys aren't everything...

Hey y'all
So today I feel the need to clear something up that I think is pretty foggy for all of us girls whether we want to admit it or not. Lets face it we are at the age where were beginning to be pretty into guys and the attention we put into that can take away from a lot of other important things in life. Like guys have suddenly become everything I mean even for me ,most of my friends are guys and yeah I'm stereotype boy crazy right now which sometimes gets in the way of the things that actually matter. Guys are fun and great but don't let that take you off the path your on. Everyone has goals for their future and no matter how great a guy is or how much you like them just remember they are not worth sacrificing your future for. Now I know you all think I'm headed down the sex lecture but that's actually not it at all, I'm talking about school or sports ,things that will get you to college and scholarships for college. See you can be anyone you want to be and do anything you want to do but you have to stay focused and honestly at our age we have so many distractions and hormones that staying focused can be a true challenge. I'm not perfect I'm actually the farthest thing from perfect ever , i get distracted and caught up in guys liking me all the time but having my long term goals really helps me stay on track. I want to be a pediatrician and in order to get there i have steps to take and goals I'm working towards. Having those goals and keeping God in the center of your life is really the key to keeping on the path to success. when we drift from God we start to question things and we all do it so as that happens we just need to make sure were getting back into the word and making sure our faith is solid. At times we think we can tackle the world on our own but we cant and God knows guys better than we do he knows that we get hormonal and distracted but lucky for us he can help us overcome all of that we just have to let him. I'm not saying I'm against dating or guys or anything like that ,I'm totally into it ,we just need to make sure we don't let whats new and exciting in the present take us off the path of our long term goals.

Love Yo Selfie

Often times when you think about "love", where does your mind go? For some of us it might be the love shared between a couple or a family, friends etc. Rarely however do we think about ourselves. The world can feel like its spinning a million miles an hour, I know mine is. We spend so much time making sure everyone else is okay that we often times neglect ourselves. We love everyone and try to make sure they know that, but what about making sure we know we love ourselves? That were happy with who we are? You may be thinking I've gone crazy right now trying to tell you to love yourself lol. I'm serious though, we are our biggest critics and I feel like we spend so much time critiquing ourselves that we forget to be happy with who we are. We tend to excuse mistakes of ones we care  about, as we should but then we dwell on our own mistakes and let them tear us apart. We need to show ourselves the compassion we show others and we need to be comfortable with who we are as ...

Stillness

As someone accustomed to being constantly on the go and busy, I've always found the concept of stillness almost nerving.  When someone tells you to spend time being still in God's presence, I don't know about you but I always pictured literally sitting still with nothing to occupy myself. To say the least due to this perception stillness is something I'd avoid. As I've began seeking God as a new mother, he's hit me with a new perspective that I'd like to share in the hopes it can aid and encourage others to embrace being still.  Stillness is different for everyone, perhaps for some it is sitting and doing absolutely nothing, meditating on God's word, for others maybe it's prayer or being alone and singing worship music. Being still with God is eliminating distractions of this world and focusing fully on him. What helps your mind go quiet? What helps you tune into God's voice and block out the world? Personally I've found its worship music and...

Defining Life Through Choices

 Life is a crazy thing, what's crazier is how we each define the course we take through it. Often times we categorize our lives by the bigger more obvious choices, for instance taking a job, going back to school, getting married, having children etc. If we created a road map of our lives on paper it would likely consist of big landmark choices. Is it truly those big choices however that sum up our lives? Is it really those land mark sized choices that got us where we are today and propel us further into the future? I'd like to argue that they are not. Every day, every moment we are faced with choices, big and small choices. Perhaps the most seemingly miniscule choices are in fact the most monumental. When you start your day, what thoughts do you allow into your head? How do you nurture your mind, body and soul when you rise and when you begin to settle down for the day? How do you choose to interact with those around you, how do you speak to them? How do you speak to yourself, ...
