Beautiful....

This morning is gorgeous. The sun is shining bright, but most of all I can see it with my own eyes. What a blessing. Thank you Father🙏🏾 We take so much for granted and worry about the small stuff. I thank God for all that He is and all that He does. Not long ago I read somewhere we should not thank God for what he's bringing us, but for what we already have. Not the exact words, but similar. If we didn't have what we do then we'd have that much more to complain about. I'm thankful for this day, this moment and all it entails. #Grateful🙏🏾

????

Why do we question when good things start happening? Where this come from? Why now? What I do to deserve him/her? I guess because of the curve balls life constantly throw at us it seem like the typical reaction.  However, run with it.  My friend shared a video with me today of all these blessings God has stored away because we didn't accept them. We really need to forgive ourselves, discard of garbage we're holding onto, remove barriers we've placed out front in order to receive with open arms the blessings God so graciously has in store for us🙏🏾.

I'm Baaaack.....

Haven't blogged in awhile, but I have started keeping a personal journal for myself.  Making some lifestyle changes and feeling better and better each day. Don't get me wrong because I'm fighting the devil with God by my side, temptation is a beast and I want mine in the end. I'm worth it and I deserve it.  No one can do it for me or you.  Now, I know it took an upcoming trip, disappointment and other things to make me get my butt in gear. However, the point is I'm doing it one day at a time. I realize as I speak to friends and family many are wanting and starting to make better choices. I want to be the best I can be and it takes plenty of work. I want to start back blogging consistently because I enjoy it. I enjoy communicating with people and sharing. Recently, I read "God Where Is My Boaz" and it too made me pause and think about changes I needed to make. My main goal is to put me first. No matter what I do or others ask of me I need to think about me in the process. I'm a nurturer and a fixer. This right here can be a blessing and a curse. I want God to continue using me how He sees fit in the name of Jesus. You don't know why sometimes your in a place or space, but it could be to help others. In the past couple of days for whatever reason I reached out to people I hadn't talked to in months. At the end of the conversation I got, "I don't know why you called, but thanks".  These individuals were going through something and needed someone at that time.  Maybe, it helped! I don't know, but I'm glad I could be there for them. Blessings 🙏🏾
