The Blessing In Little People.

There are so many blessings that come with having children. On December 13, 2016, God blessed me with a beautiful little girl. Although, my relationship with her father wasn't your "fairy tale story", there was a blessing in her birth. Having my daughter lead me back to Christ.

I was not new to the Christian faith, but I chose not to live the life of a believer. On September 23, 2017, I decided to christen my daughter, which was the first step of how God used her life to draw me closer to him. From that day forward I made the decision to take my daughter to church every Sunday. Proverb 22:6 "train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it". I stand strong on that scripture. My grandmother took me to church faithfully as a child. Even though I went astray, here I am in my late 20s proud to say I am a woman of God.

Afraid that my daughter would make all the terrible decisions I made; I begin to change my lifestyle. I gave up many ungodly habits. On May 19, 2018, I officially became a member of a church. I then joined a mentor group for young girls in my church. I even made the decision to go back to school to counsel people.

As you can see with every decision, I made to protect my daughter, God found his way to be in the mist. I was still dealing with my own mess in the world and struggling to be the best mom. On February 28, 2019, I joined a women's ministry, which pushed me to surrender all to God.

Since surrendering my life to our father God being a mother has become slightly easier. I know that God is guiding me. My spiritual journey has not only pushed me to grow closer to God but also a closer relationship with my daughter. I just wanted to remind you when you're struggling with parenting to think of the blessing that comes with having a child.

Be Blessed!

Blockage in Your Tunnel!

Image
  Imagine driving on a beautiful afternoon. As your driving, you approach a tunnel. Your car enters the tunnel and suddenly things do not appear to be so brighter. As you continue to drive you can see that there is light at the end of the tunnel.   Many of our lives are like this. Everything appears to be perfect and then suddenly something dims our lights.    For some of us, there may be a huge truck driving in front of us, which is blocking the light at the end of the tunnel. We all have trucks in our lives that we need to move past to see the light. Some have big trucks and some may have small trucks.  What happens when you can get around the truck? The key is to keep driving. You cannot stop or else you’ll be the cause of traffic.  That’s how God feels about our lives. The enemy may try to cause blockage in our tunnels, but we have to keep going even if we can’t move around it. The cars behind us are the souls that God has assigned to us. When you quit ...

Blessing in Friendships.

Image
We all know by now that friendships don’t always last forever. Some friendships are just for a season. In that season God uses that person(s) to bring something out of you. I’m in a space in life where my circle of friends has changed. Although God has replaced the friends I have lost; I am truly grateful for each friendship. In this season God has given me friends that have become my sisters through Christ. Each one of them has played a part in my spiritual development; rather it is to hold me accountable for my thoughts and actions or to push me to new heights in my walk with Christ. God has given me sisters who won’t let me go back to partying and drinking alcohol. He has given me sisters to remind me of the spiritual gifts he has implanted in me. I shared this to say it is okay to lose friends because God will replace them with who you need in life. Although it may hurt or feel like a loss, it is actually a blessing. Each friendship helps build your character and integrity. T...

The Blessing in a Breakthrough!

Image
I have been going back and forth about doing this post. It has been tough to write about what I am currently dealing with. I am waiting for my “breakthrough”. Week after week the enemy has been attacking me. Now, most will say “when the enemy is working hard to break you, you are about to reach your breakthrough.” This post is not only to encourage you but to encourage me. The enemy has a job and that is to kill, steal, and destroy according to John 10:10.  We have to stand strong and trust in the Lord through these trying times. God will always be there.  “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.”  Isaiah‬ ‭43:2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ We are not to fear the things that satan is throwing at us. Even when it seems like the trials and tribulations are never-ending. God has our backs. He will provide you with the strength and reso...
