Hey Ladies<3
This post is specifically for all my ladies out there, we often hear the word "beautiful" in many ways. Its often used when we see someone we find prettier than ourselves in our eyes. We feel like we don't measure up because we aren't the "perfect or ideal" weight, or maybe we aren't using the super expensive makeup that someone else is. People in general are self conscious but we as woman get the brunt of it. We constantly try to be the "ideal" for someone else, its like a constant battle to be someones idea of beautiful. So much so that we forget to focus on our own idea of beautiful. We wear uncomfortable cloths, go on massive diets, and try to learn the impossible eye liner tutorials so that we feel like we measure up. We get so caught up in the worlds idea of beauty that we loose track of what we think is beautiful and what is spiritually beautiful. Some think that beauty comes from how much you spend on your appearance ,but who cares about appearance if theirs no heart and mind to go with it? That's equivalent to getting a box of chocolates that are beautifully wrapped and so appealing than you open the box to find no chocolates but an empty box. You can look amazing on he outside but who cares about that if your hollow inside? The world measures beauty by appearance but God looks at us from within, he sees our hearts and a God devoted heart is what he calls beautiful. Mathew 6:28 says that " And why do you worry about clothes? Learn how the wildflowers of the field grow: they don't labor or spin thread." This is saying, instead of worrying so much about our outward appearance we need to grow in God and therefore grow in ourselves. Being like a beautiful wildflower who needs nothing more than the necessities offered to it in order to bloom. As a teenager myself I understand the want to have the latest styles and to fit in with other women, I've been looked down upon before based of having the wrong jeans and its not fun. So I'm not saying you shouldn't dis your appearance all together. I'm saying don't make that what you put all your time into and don't compare yourself to others. You are your own person and you have so many ways you can shine without trying to be someone else. Make your own kind of beautiful, go after Gods beautiful and always try to push and be the gorgeous person he has created you to be. I challenge you today, don't make it your goal to be eye candy, instead be heart, mind and soul food. And above all else if you want to dress to impress than choose wisely who your trying to impress because in the end the only one you should be devoted to impress has already been impressed by you since before you were born. 

Conquer the  world ladies and maybe if we all work together we can create our own kind of beautiful and a new species of wildflower as an example for generations to come.  

Be-YOU-Tiful :)

Phoenix

 I feel there is something not talked about enough, everyone knows the feeling of failure. We all make mistakes, comes with being human, we all cope with that. How though do we cope when unplanned mistakes take place, I know your wondering what on earth I mean by this, most mistakes are unplanned… I am referring to the mistakes, the trials that occur even when the “rules” are followed, those that incur even when perhaps we have done everything right that is within in our power. This takes a different type of coping, paired with an even greater understanding and matched with yet a greater perspective. In order to cope and heal from these unplanned mistakes we need to evaluate what was within our control and what was genuinely not. Often times when things go wrong we immediately blame and criticize ourselves because let’s be real, that is much easier than accepting the unknown and accepting the true lack of control we had over the situation. It is facing this fact though that allows for

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,

Write Your Story

 It’s been over a year since I have last written and I can honestly say it has been quite the year. Writing is an outlet unlike any other, it creates doors to inspire, uplift and change. Perhaps the lives of others may change by the words you place on paper, however I believe the real change happens in the heart of the author. Whether it be fiction or nonfiction or a mix of both, putting the words on paper in a way that betters those around us and potentially those we will never meet aside from words meeting eyes, that changes you. It allows healing, growth, and a change of perspective on life. If there is one thing I have taken from the last year, it is that we are all the author of our own stories, we all have tales dying to be told inside of us, fighting to be born into paper. There is nothing in life that a change in perspective and a plan cannot conquer, we are only as limited as the limits we put on ourselves. Change stands directly in front of all of us, the question is not if i
