Thursday Thoughts

Good morning Friends, 
Grace and peace be unto you!

Today's thoughts... it is so easy to be reactive but can you be proactive? Don't operate from your primitive brain. Evolve to a place where right-thinking, acting, learning and doing are the norm. When you have thought through the scenarios you have a go-to and you will be more confident in your decision making. The more you trust yourself to make the right decisions the more confident you become. As your confidence rises so will your swagger and people will be attracted to you.

Before you act, listen. Before you react, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you criticize, wait. 

Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Ernest Hemingway

Love you to life.

 Until tomorrow #liveBlessed

Wednesday Word

Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Matthew 6: 5 “When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites. They love to stand in the synagogues and on the street corners and pray loudly. They want people to see them. The truth is, that’s all the reward they will get. 6 But when you pray, you should go into your room and close the door. Then pray to your Father. He is there in that private place. He can see what is done in private, and he will reward you.

Friends as we approach this lent season it is really time for us to look inside ourselves and search for our true motives. Why are we doing the things we are doing? Is it to get applause? Is it to see our name in lights? What is motivating us to do whatever it is that we do each day?

Matthew asks us to examine our motives in prayer. Are we praying to be heard by men or by God? As we enter into this Lent season it is a real-time to be introspective about our motives. The scripture tells us to pray in our room with the door closed. Now, we don't need to push this to the extreme in saying that we should never have corporate prayer. However, there is a way in which we should conduct our prayer. When we are talking to good friends we aren't loud and rambunctious. We lean in and listen and share intimate conversation. The writer is inviting us to have an intimate conversation with our father with no pretenses. Just you and your father. Private, intimate, and sincere. Love you to life.

Transformation Tuesday

Good day friends,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Clarity rarely comes when the mind is busy, it comes when the mind is still. Take time to find some still time in each day to get clarity. It is never selfish to take some time to recharge yourself. Find that special place where you can exhale and catch your breath. Let your hair down for a bit. Sis, it is ok for you to smell the roses while you can. Don't allow others to determine your pace. Get still and hear the direction that you should be going. Love you to life.

Share your light and elevate others. 
In this world that we live in so many people are experiencing darkness and feel alone and you could be the difference. I want to encourage you today to speak to someone that you would not normally talk to. Smile at someone that seems to be down. When you are genuinely happy and proceed with that happiness it is attractive. Find another woman and introduce yourself to her. We need to break out of our silos. Love you to life.

Matthew 11:“^28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Getaway with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

It is time for us to run to the father to experience the rest that we need to recharge. In this crazy busy world, it is so easy to be doing so much that we forget to recharge. Sis if you were to check out of this world tomorrow people will be sad and focused on you for a week or two. Then they are moving so don't think if you are not in the mix things won't happen. They will. That being said, life won't stop if you take time to recoup. Even Jesus had to go away in solitude and regroup. 

Sleep is supposed to be our time to renew but so many people are so overwhelmed with life that it is just a point of the day where their body isn't moving. In this verse, Jesus invites you and me to come and rest in him. Relax in him. 

I love in this verse how it says to learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I personally have not discovered this yet but it is what I am seeking. The unforced rhythm of God's grace. When that grace is laid on us it gives us the ability to live free from the weight and sin of this world. I don't know how you feel about it but that sounds like shouting ground for me. When we walk with him and emulate him we can walk in freedom. What are we waiting on? Love you to life.

Transformation Tuesday

Good day friends, 
Grace and peace be unto you!

As you transform your life you have to remember that putting yourself last on your list of important things will prevent you from living your best life. When you put you last you teach others that you are not important and they will treat you like you are not important. Remember, we attract what we put out. Be kind to yourself through your transition. You will be happier and happier will come to you. 

Here are the 12 Courageous Ways to Be Kind to Yourself:

1. Be BOLD - live your life your way!
2. Remember - your flaws give you style and personality!
3. Ask yourself daily - what do I need to thrive today?
4. Your feelings are signals, listen to them - always!
5. Rejection proves you're doing something courageous!
6. Forgive yourself. Period.
7. Stop tolerating - it's not noble to allow things to drain you
8. Life is too short to 'should' on yourself
9. Rushing makes everyone miserable. Do less and take your time.
10. Gather a 'spark team' of people who think you're awesome!
11. Stop worrying about what others think. Instead ask, "What do I think?"
12. Stand up for yourself - if not you, then who will?

Love you to life

I just want to remind you that you don't need to compare yourself to anybody else. Perfectionism is a killer. It will keep you in bondage because in your eyes everyone is doing better than you. This Monday I want to remind you that every step forward takes you one step closer to your goal. You don't have to perfect, you don't even have to be right. Just keep moving forward. Just be better each day. Love you to life.

I don't know about you but I have totally felt like this in the last little bit but I am coming out of the box. Ladies it is time for us to know who we are and know what we want. You dont have to fit in somebody else's box. Time out for shrinking to other people's small minded thinking. You are the head and not the tail.  Call your own shots. This is your year of break out. You dont have to stay in boxes designed by others. Love you to life.

Good morning friends,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Ephesians 5:29-30 (TLB) No one hates his own body but lovingly cares for it, just as Christ cares for his body the Church, of which we are parts.

As we move closer and closer to Valentine's day the "love" day I want to encourage you to think about your love quotient. Love Quotient is all about improving our ability to express love to ourselves and others. See one of the things I have noticed in the body of Christ is that we tend to show love outwardly but not inward. 

Before you can truly love someone else you must love yourself. While you may be celebrating with a mate take some time to love you first. See when you truly know what you love and love yourself,  you will be able to tell others how to love you. It is not a sin to choose you first. Remember, choosing you does not mean you unchoose your family it just means that you get things in order. On an airplane, they tell you to put your mask on first if there is a situation and you need oxygen. Why? Because if you pass out trying to help someone else you are of no good.  Sis, today I am just reminding you to put your mask on first and then help others. 

Scripture says, You don't hate your own body but you care for it as Christ cares for his body, us. Christ takes care of us. Watching after us and listening for our needs. When you love someone you listen and are responsive to their needs. Are you listening to yourself? Sit down and take some time to listen to yourself. What do you like? What are you missing? You can not get this from anybody else.  Love you to life.

Transformation Tuesday

Good day friends,
Grace and peace be unto you!

Transformation begins when you really come to grips with who you are what we were placed on this earth to do. Too often as women, we live to the expectations of others so much that we don't really get or take the opportunity to know who we are.

Girls are given these sets of rules for how we are to behave while boys tend to get a pass on their behavior. Women are asked to smile all the time. Why? While talking to a man the other day another man told me to smile as he walked by. I ask the man I was speaking to had he ask another man to smile. He chuckled and said, "no I don't recall that I have" and he chuckled again. I then ask him, "then why do men say this to women all the time?"  He shrugged his shoulders. See it is these kinds of statements that put us in a box and keep us from moving and operating in all that we are created to be because if we don't smile will we be rejected? If we don't smile will we get the promotion? If we smile too much will we be perceived by another woman as flirtatious?

When we transform our mind into the mind that Christ has given us we can walk in boldness knowing that we are His child and that we don't have to play second fiddle in anybody's band. See we are queens and need to walk with the regalness that comes with that position. Not arrogant but confident. Assured of our standing and sure that we are the handiwork of our father.

Transformation is hard work all by its self. Don't all others to put you in a box designed to make you shrink. It is time for each of us to discover our likes and dislikes, what we love and don't love and to move into the spaces that need to be filled by our gifts and talents. Sis, you have got this. Love you enough to break out of the box and be happy. Love you to life.

Tools are a powerful thing. They can either build up or tear down. They come in all shapes and sizes to accomplish a multiplicity of tasks. I would go out on a limb and say most people have their favorite brand of tools and have their go tos within that brand. 

I want you to take a look at your toolbox today. No, not the ones in the garage. Your personal toolbox. The one you open when the rubber meets the road. Do you use your tongue as a weapon? It can tear down or build up. Do you use your freeze ray? When things aren't going your way you freeze out the people or situation so you don't have to deal with it? Do you use your love meter to test the air and infuse just the right amount of love to change the whole atmosphere? 

We all have tools just how are we using them? Love or hate? Building or destroying? They are your tools what you doing to do? Love ya to Life.

Friday focus

Good day friends 

Grace and peace be unto you!

Wear red day. Take the time to focus on your heart health. What you eat, how you exercise, and what you hold on to can effect it. I'm sure the first two are easy to understand but some of you are asking what I mean by what you hold on to. See when you have unsolved issues and you keep them in your body is affected adversely. High blood pressure and hypertension can all the a result of unresolved issues. You say how? Because many of the behaviors you do such as overeating or just making bad food choices are often due to suppression of said issues. Time to get your life together. Focus on you. Love you to life

I have one question to ask you today. Why are you drowning in 3 feet of water? Stand up! I can not explain to you how profound this that is to me today. You don't have to drown, just stand up. Stand up for yourself, for your thoughts, for your money, for your family, for your community. Stand up for what you believe. Stand up for how you are allowing yourself to disrespected.

Ladies, for too long we have been drowning and apologizing for it. Oh, I am sorry I'm spitting water on you but I am drowning. So sorry I should do something about it but I have given my power away and now I am just left to drown. No sis!! Go take your power back. Take back every bit of pride that has been stolen from you. Don't allow anyone to throw shade on you. You have got this. You are the warrior chick that has come to kick butt and take names.

Stand up my sistah. This is your season to access all that is destined for you. Don't settle for some get it all. I love you to life.

This so resonated with me this morning. Happiness is not in a destination. This first work day of this new month we have stop looking for happiness from without and start looking within. Nothing will ever satisfy you if you are genuinely unhappy in your spirit. We see it happen with celebrities and rich people. They have money and status yet they are miserable. Sis take the time to find out what makes your heart sing. What makes you want to skip and sing out loud. When you do you will truly be happy. My happy doesn't look like yours so it can not be compared. The only person you can look at is the one in the mirror. You've got this my love. #inpursuitofme Love you to life.
