Power of Words

We have the power to speak both death or life into not only ourselves but those around us.  Starting today, I am changing my vocabulary and train of thought. I will speak life into myself and those around me. I am loved, I am beautiful, I am everything and anything I choose to be. I own my future. I am tired of questioning my relationships while realizing I was in those situations due to my own lack of faith or lack of belief in something different. Complacency breeds failure. This move has made me realize that I can do whatever I put my mind to and that those who truly belong in your life will come along for the ride.

Reminiscing on loves past will not allow me to move forward with anything or anyone new. Not that I want to jump right into anything but I realized that I am much happier when my focus is on self and not them. Yes, learn from all things gone wrong in the past... but also reflect on what went right. Who have you become? Did the situation change you for the better? How you react to the situation determines the next level. Challenges are God's way of saying, you are the best, you have what it takes to be tested and become a leader. So I accept the challenges now as favor. He must think highly of me of since he makes me work for it and does not hand it to me.

I attended the Running Reckless conference at the Potters House this past weekend and oh how I was blessed by each and every woman and man of God that got up. Learning to look at challenges as levels and realizing what the end goal is. Learning that I am not my past or the future I am the present and I have an expertise- walk in it. Relationships are a reflection of whats inside of you. You are drawn to either what you lack or what you overcompensate for. If you are whole though... you attract whole beings. Realizing that yes, he was broken but so were you and you both were trying to fit broken pieces together to create one... but it will never work that way. In relationships we should complement each other.... I am a masterpiece, fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God, I need whoever I am with to have that same mindset. Kingdom minded men only.

So 2016- here I am. Just a sneak peek into what I will be doing this year. Masters Degree will be complete (5 courses left) 2 school loans will be paid off, new car, mission trip, vancouver, promotion and love. I am speaking into existence right now. Don't believe me just watch me.

Single But Ready: Greater is Coming

So I am up doing some grass roots research into pursuing some passions of mine... hair and fashion.  While texting a guy who is interested in me. And it hit me. I am ready to date again! Finally. Lordt I thought I was going to be stuck in that negative stage forever! By the way the title of this post is inspired by a podcast that I listened to- that helped get me through entitled: Single But READY.. check it out it is eye opening. So if you read some of my post from the August/September period you will note the harping of the breakup and my efforts to rebound date. Well I never wrote about my perspective of trying to rebound date. Let us just say it was horrible. I truly do not recommend trying to rebound date, while being celibate and on the tail ends of a heartbreak... Nothing good comes from Nazareth right? HA.. ok. Basically as I sat here thinking back to that time period I was sooo negative. Negative Nancy welcome to the party. These guys were showing genuine interest in me an

The importance of boundaries

As I sit here in DFW international airport reading "Don't Settle For Safe" by Sarah Jakes Roberts, I am compelled to write on the importance of setting boundaries. Boundaries keep us safe. Safety is a primary foundational component of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Basically, we need boundaries at our core in order to survive. Relationships are one of the hardest areas of our lives to create and maintain boundaries. Why is this? Our need for acceptance tugs at our inner being to disregard the natural boundaries that our conscience created for us. Whatever it may be- friends, significant others, parents or siblings we want to be accepted. But at what cost do we pursue acceptance? As I have grown and matured in all things called life, I realized that I had created boundaries that were too loose as well as disregarded others all together. I had to realign myself to think in terms of boundaries when approaching any situation. Here are a few of the questions I asked myse
