Friday Focus

Good morning ,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Wow, what a week. In the midst of it all you and I have to stay focused. What is your why? Why are pushing like you are? It's more than money, fames, or likes on facebook. What is your why? Focus on your why. Yes, you will have haters all around you, throwing shade but takes times to rest, get the sun out of your eye, and reset your crown. You have stuff to do. Stay focused.
Until Monday

Wednesday Word

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Philippians 1:6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

There is so much happening in the world today that if we don't stay focused on the peace of God we could get depressed. On one side people ask why does God allow this but on the other side we understand that people have free will and choose to do evil. Wow, what a complex world we live in.

So the thought that I leave you with is don't lose hope. No matter what is going on keep your hope alive. Hope in people, hope in a better day, hope in Christ. Keep your heart towards Christ. He is the only one that can heal, console, brighten, save, and uplift this world that we live in. Keep hope alive. The good work will be done in you and spread abroad.

Transformation Tuesday

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

No is a whole sentence all by its self. Don't allow people or situations to make you say yes to things or situations in which you can not give 100%. Yes, I know we all want to say yes to everything but it is impossible to do a good job at everything. For me I want to extend to others what I want for myself so, I have to really think about offers because I never want to say no. However, if I say yes to everything I will not have the capacity to accept the things I am really supposed to do.

No, gives us the flexibility to hone in on our true abilities and present our best selves to the world. While it doesn't always feel good to say NO it is necessary to help you and I obtain equilibrium. Saying No doesn't make you mean. It just helps you create boundaries that are necessary for your life.

Monday Motivation

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Some morning you just have to put a praise on it. Not because yesterday was good but because you need to let the whole atmosphere understand that today is going to be good no matter what. I'm going to praise God for a good day in advance. I'm going to call together all of the angels assigned to me to war on my behalf to get busy.
So, no yesterday might not have been a good one but it will not define today. Excuse me while I praise the funk of yesterday away to receive the joy that only today can bring.

Until tomorrow

Wednesday Word

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

In this quick and busy word sometimes it is difficult to slow down enough to think through our words. I know I go a thousand miles an hour and some days when I reflect on my thoughts, actions, and words they might are not as kind as they could be. Sometimes I am so busy getting to the next thing that I am paying no mind to what is in front of me.

Lord, help me to be wise and kind.

Thursday Thoughts

Good morning,

I am really starting to understand the power of thoughts and seeds. Many people plant seeds of fear, doubt, hate, and mistrust and wonder why these things are always around them. I have just been observing what I am attracted to and repelled from in this season of my life. Some of the people, situations, and circumstances no longer fit where you and I are going. 

I think it becomes the most evident to us as we shift into spring. That same cute dress might not fit over that winter body like it did last spring. The dress is still cute but it no longer fits. In this new season we have to guard our thoughts for the things that no longer fit. Don't allow them to germinate in your mind because they become your words.

Transformational Tuesday

Good morning, 

Grace and peace be unto you!

Interesting that God has really had me sharing about butterflies during transformation Tuesday. All I have to say is, after my transition, watch out world. I'm gone be fluttering at a new level. Not to be seen but to pollinate every flower he puts in my path.

Over these next 40 days. I want more of him. Don't look at me crazy if I praise a little more. I have to get EVERYTHING that has my name on it. Not going through spiritual calisthenics to get it, just receiving my gifts. Do you want to go to this place called change?

Spring has not sprung all the way but it has bee nice to have the sun out. Isn't it amazing how something as small as the sun shining or not shining can

change your whole day? After days of rain and clouds, the sun shining can put a new pep in your step and a smile on your face.

I have been reminded lately that behind every cloud the sun is shining. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it went away. Be somebody's sunshine today. Show them that there is light even on a cloudy day.

As we head into the weekend it is good for us to look at what we are making excuses about. Is what we are eating? The activities we miss, we're late to, or just did show up for? The people we haven't communicated with? What are you making excuses for? 

If you are making excuses decide if it's important. If it's not then just be honest. While it might have had value at one point, it no longer does. If that is the truth then own it and keep it pushing but don't hold people up or give them false hope as you make excuses. 

Transformation Tuesday

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Everyone is not going to agree with you all of the time. They don't hate you because they challenge your thought. Often it's not even personal, it's just doesn't so well.

As we move into our spaces of transformation everyone will not agree with you and might not ever accept your transformation. It's ok. Remember, everyone is not in your life to stay. In this season choose your circle carefully. The other fuzzy caterpillars are not loving that showed up as this beautiful butterfly. Soar my dear and pollinate those beautiful flowers. No more crawling for you.

The key to moving forward is giving up the old habits and thoughts that no longer serve you. There are situations and people that have to be cut off when you realize that their words mixed with your thought are not productive.  In this year of yes, you must say yes to yourself. Love YOU enough to move in a positive direction. I'm loving me and shaking the negative.

Thursday Thoughts

Good morning
Grace and peace be unto you!

It is a season of grace and favor. Get in the vain and receive everything that has been held up. Your blessings will overtake you but you have to be in a position to receive.

I Kings 17 tells us God then told Elijah, “Get out of here, and fast. Head east and hide out at the Kerith Ravine on the other side of the Jordan River. You can drink fresh water from the brook; I’ve ordered the ravens to feed you.”

Elijah could have an attitude because nasty birds were going to bring him food or he could be at the place of his blessing and receive. Don't miss your blessing because of the package it comes in. Yes, ravens generally eat and scavenge dead things but this scavenger is bringing life.
Life or death...it's a choice.

Wednesday Word

Good morning,

Forget the former things. This is a small statement but it can be difficult when the situation happened in the past but the people are still in the present. The word tells us to forget the former things and do not dwell on the past. 

While it may not be easy to forget you can choose not to dwell. Get your mind busy on other things and people. If I fill my time and space with people that fill me and allow me to see my value I can move forward. By moving forward I can get the new thing referred to. 

See I can't get new when I'm holding on to the old. The new isn't  springing up when the old shriveled up plants from last year are still in place. Rip out the old. It's dead! Spring is around the corner. What do you and I need to up root so we can get springs best?

Transformation Tuesday

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Sisters as we transform our worlds one the first thing that must change is our environment. See it does us no good to take a bath and then go wallow in the dirt. If we change our mindsets but don't change our environment we will be polluted with the same foolishness we just came out of.

Look at the people that you surround yourself with. Are they always asking you for a favor but never can come through for you? Are they constantly talking about other people and putting people down? Do they ever give to others without having their hand out for a return? Do they build more than tear down? If you have answered no to the majority of these then it is time to exit stage right. Many cool people may not be cool for you.

When you realize that your path and the path of those that you have associated yourself are no longer aligned it is time to make some transformational moves. Remember, at the core of you being whole, is you! Don't compromise you for anyone. You might not ever get you back.

I want to just speak to a woman out there that has been struggling with being misunderstood. Sister keep pushing. Set your standard and don't compromise it for likes. People are fickle. They will like you this morning and discard you this afternoon. Fulfill your assignment. Don't every intentionally hurt people because karma is a beast, but don't spend valuable time worrying about othe people's opinions. Like bellybuttons everybody has one. Remember, just because they have one does not mean that it will get you to your desired goal.
