Breathe: Note to SELF

Hello beautiful ladies, I’m super excited to share this short study guide with you on how to discover your purpose and move forward. Have you ever been in that place where you’re confused, overwhelm, stressed because everyone around you seems to have it? Yet you look at your own life and just can’t seem to find anything that works for you? It could be problems in relationships, business, or spirituality etc.

 

I remember one day I was sitting in the computer lab at school wanting to cry. I was so overwhelmed because I didn’t know my purpose. I wanted to know why I was placed here on Earth. Can I be honest, I just felt like I was a waste of God’s time. Then one day while having a moment with God, He begins to reveal to me my purpose. I was so excited! It was then that I discover that I have a purpose. Maybe you find yourself in this situation not knowing your purpose.

Are you breathing right now? If so, I’ll let to remind you that YOU have a purpose. God strategically breathed into your nostrils the breath of life.  He even went a step further by ensuring His design for your life in the book Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

God truly wants to blow your mind with so many blessings that you wouldn’t not have room divine revelation from God.

As I sit here tonight I simply can’t help but think about my life. I’m constantly beating myself up for the things I don’t do right. Rather than being happy about the things that I am doing right.

I have to remind myself that I’m not perfect, but I must strive daily to be my best.

There comes a period in your life when you have to encourage yourself. David in the Bible even had to encourage himself.

1 Samuel 30:6 
And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.

Can I have your permission to be transparent?

There was a stage in my life I couldn’t find anything beautiful about myself. It was a struggle because I suffered with low self-esteem. I constantly felt like other people were better than me. That was something I had to deal with. I’ve cried a lot. I would always question why God didn’t make me beautiful.

The past few years I began working to build up my confidence. I’m still building! But hey, I’m a whole lot better. In that short amount of time, I began to love me.

I recently did a post about my PAMPER ME nights. Where I take the time to enjoy myself. I would read a book, give myself a facial,  or have a movie night.

I recall someone telling me if you can’t enjoy being with you; then don’t expect someone else to

That little message stuck with me!

Are you living the life Jesus Christ died for you to have?

I’m not speaking about that YOLO lifestyle?

Drake may say “You only live once that’s the motto”.

But the bible says in John 11:25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,

John 5:24 

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

John 16:22
So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.

I thank God for the promise of eternal life. We must be careful of the lifestyle we live. We can’t be like the world.

Romans 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Begin investing in you…

I never was the type to get out unless I had someone with me. Guess you can say I didn’t like being solo. I had to discover that love starts from within.
So imagine what I did?

I started to enjoy myself a little. I would go to the movies, shop, out to eat by myself.

It came to the point whenever a movie come out I don’t wait for people to come with me anymore. I just go see it myself. Now don’t get me wrong, I love having company, but I still enjoy my solo time.

It doesn’t matter if you single, married, or divorce enjoy YOU!

You have to love yourself before you can love anybody else. 

Don’t place your validation in people.

This evening I had to encourage myself while looking in the mirror. A few things I would do was find inspirational quotations. My favorite one was “I am fearfullyand wonderfully made”. I would literally put up messages on my wall. I made certain I read each message daily; including telling myself daily what I like about me.

I started to examine me for who God made me to be. Btw, I’m still discovering.

I need to start back encouraging myself daily.

So I just thought of writing a note each morning before I depart the house for work.I’ll write a note to myself. Then when I come home my spirit will be uplifted.

I encourage anyone who’s struggling with low self esteem to work on you. It may consume time but continue the process.

If you have to pray about it, do it. Allow the  Lord to instruct you on how to love yourself. Even if you have to cry and pour out to God. God will always comfort you.

Psalm 34:18
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

Simply keep in mind things will get better. So be encouraged today my dear friends. The LORD is on your side.

Be blessed;)

I found my dwelling place. (Psalms 91)

When I rest in the LORD, my troubles fade away. For He takes away my troubles. He honors and sustains me. I shall never be afraid of the troubles that come from my left or my right. The Enemy can throw as many blows, yet I can stand still in the ring because I know the battle is not mine. It’s all for the Lord.

I simply know my God is faithful. I don’t have to fear the plague that destroys at midday. Because in my God I found my dwelling place. In Him I found safety, it is in Him I’m respected. In him, there’s no terrors, no arrows can get at me, no plague can come near my tent.

He has Holy Angels sent on my behalf, they will lift me up in their hands. So that I won’t trip over a stone. My God is great. He is awesome in His power. Even when my former days may look better than my latter days He gives me hope.

Hence I stand still and trust in the Lord. I believe in Him alone. Many times I cried out to Him and He never failed me. I found refuge in the Most High. While thousands fall dead at my side, and ten thousand falls dead near my right hand. Who will protect me from the wicked? Certainly the Lord will!

I will say about the  Lord, He is my place of refuge. He truly is my shield! He’s my pillar of strength. He is the Almighty God.

For every poisonous snakes I shall encounter I will smash them. Every rock I could have tripped over was already  commanded for my Guardian Angel to raise me.

Thus now I rest without any cares because everything I just spoken has already been taken care.

LOVING THE WOMAN I’M BECOMING. #IfoundsafetyintheLord
