Expression of Oneself

 Covid took a lot from many people, however as I reflect over the past year and a half it has also brought so many blessings. Look around just for a moment, you'll realize how much you have to appreciate. I believe in not focusing on what was lost but rather what was gained. Before covid how often did you simply sit outside and admire the trees or the sky? Well after a year inside I bet those moments have increased. Before covid did you ever slow down and enjoy moments with your family? Did you simply stop to enjoy the blessings God has placed in your life? This

last year has given many of us the opportunity to do just that. As humans we grow and adapt to our changing times and environments but throughout this last year, it's trials and turmoil, God has stayed constant as we've had to adapt to our new world he has stayed the same. God has remained a constant stability in our lives and carried us through. Blessing upon blessing has been apparent over this last year if you simply take a moment to look.  

Self expression is unique to each person, as you can likely tell for me it's mg writing yet for some it's music or dance etc. However you express yourself it is a gift from God, a gift unique to you that he chose so intricately that it would fit your life and personality perfectly. Expressing your thoughts, feelings, and personality is a blessing in life; today, this week, this month snd this next year pay attention to the gifts God has given you in which you express yourself and share those gifts with others. Our gifts aren't meant to be held inside but rather given freely and trust me when you are willing God will reach the people who need you the most all you have to do is be you and let your light snd gifts shine to those around you.

The fire

  A thought came to me today as I stumbled upon some inspirational posts. Why are we often so eager to escape our troubling circumstances. We get trapped in the fire and get so focused on getting out that perhaps we miss the most important question of all, what refining needs to be completed in the fire? Just as a welder uses the fire to shape and refine metal, so God uses our circumstances, "fires" to shape and refine us. If he simply swooped in and saved the day, we would lack the knowledge he hopes us to gain, we wouldn't grow in character or wisdom. In the fire we think he abandom us, left us to our own devices, but in reality he is more present in the fire even then in the calm. It's when we feel abandoned that he's calling to us the loudest, beckoning us to just open our ears to listen to his voice. Take the fires in stride, don't immediately reach for the extinguisher. Allow the flames to surround you with the confident knowledge that the one whom the...

Be-You-Tiful

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 ,b...

Identity

I must first apologize to all of you , my readers for the long gap in between blogs. This summer has been insane and while I am not one to share my own personal life, I believe there were lessons learned and wisdom gained this past summer in which I would like to share with all of you. So all my teens and even parents out there, this ones for you.     Growing up is hard, especially in today's world with so many constant influences trying to tell us who we are and who we should become. It's a struggle among these influences to find out who you are now and who God wants you to be in the future, it's a constant question of if you made the right choice, if your going the right direction, and sometimes it feels as if there is purely no direction in any way you look. It can feel as if God is no longer leading you, and if your like me, that feeling is scary. I want to give you wisdom tonight that God is with you, I know for a fact because he stayed with me even when I couldn'...
