🌞Summer is almost over. Kids are headed back to school. There are four months left until 2019 is over. My writing process has been slow and steady this year, but I plan to finish the first draft by December. Do you have any goals for this new upcoming season? #summergoals

When you're tired, remember the Holy spirit never gets weary.⠀ 💙⠀ 1. Spend time with Him to help increase your energy⠀ 2. Remember He lives inside of you and you still have enough energy to move on⠀ 💙⠀ You just have to change your persepctive. Instead of focusing on how tired you are, focus on who doesn't get tired.⠀ 💙⠀ One task and one day at a time. #godisneverweary

It's not your job to fight the demons that haunt you. 💚 Its God's job. 💜 Its not your job to place guilt, shame, and all these negative words on yourself. 🧡 Instead, be gentle with yourself, friend. 💛 Allow God to fight your enemies that try to occupy your mind. 💙 All you need to do is be kind. Be gentle. Be loving to yourself. #bekinddogood

I'm here to be a servant. How dare I make a fuss about how God wants me to serve for Him with the time I have on earth. I don't have that type of authority. I have no right to compare myself to others or whine because I don't want to do something. If God blessed you with a role, whether it's a garbage man, mail lady, nurse, teacher, actor, etc., be grateful and be humble by the fact that God believes you have the potential to help him live out his will in that role. Give thanks for the responsibility the Lord has placed on you. 👑 Let's realize we are right where we are meant to be. 👑 My favorite verse I try to live by everyday: “Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.” ‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:16-18‬ ‭NLT‬‬ 👑 Comment, I'M HERE TO SERVE, if you're ready to start changing your perspective on how you see your life. #bejoyful

Just because you're not happy with where you are right now doesn't mean that's not where you're suppose to be. Sometimes God puts us in uncomfortable situations in order to strengthen us and make us aware of, not what we want, but what we need. 🎨 God can use the mistakes we have made--the funk and dirt we are in right now--and turn it into a beautiful testimony that will bless others. 🎨 So don't be discouraged with where you are right now. In fact, be joyful. This is the time to glorify God and ask for more of His strength. This is the time to grow closer to Him. 🎨 Let's change our persepctive people and rejoice! #rejoice

Procrasination 🤦🏾‍♀️: I'm still learning how to overcome that. What I've learned so far: Overcoming procrasination takes one day at a time. CHOOSING to change means DISCIPLINE yourself. If you fail? Get back up. Discipline and self-control go hand-in-hand and that's a spiritual fruit. It's a fruit I need to grow in. How do you overcome procrasination? #procrastination

⭐️REMINDER: Don't beat yourself up over the things you do or don't do. Without your problems, you wouldn't have a reason to rely on God so much. You wouldn't have a reason to grow and become stronger in Him. It's okay. You're okay. Embrace all these ups and downs your experiencing throughout the journey. Be gentle with your heart, friend 💚. #itsokaynottobeokay

My sister claims I'm the brooding type when I start thinking about my loved ones and how they won't be here with me forever. I might do that 🤷🏾‍♀️ but I will continue to deny it 😎 lol. 🌼 But you know? Sorrow and pain can be a beautiful thing if we change our perspective on how we see it. 🌼 Ecclesiastes 7:3 states, "Sorrow is better than laughter, for sadness has a refining influence on us." Although laughing is a beautiful thing as well, we become more insightful through sadness. We become stronger when we experience sadness and hard times. It's during these times we can strengthen our relationship with the Lord and learn how to live a better life. 🌼 And when it feels like you don't even have the strength to endure these rough times, remember God is your rock when you hit rock bottom. He's your strength and He knows how to show you unconditional love when you can't even love yourself or anyone else. 🌼 Isaiah 48:10, "I have refined you, but not as silver is refined. Rather, I have refined you in the furnace of suffering." 🌼 Seed of the day🌱: Look for a verse that brings you peace and joy so when you're going through rough times, you can cling to that verse for encouragement. "Worry weighs a person down, an encouraging word cheers a person up" - Proverbs 12:25. #dailyencouragement

God doesn't like to see us sad, angry, or filled with worry and anxiety. 🦋 Romans 12:12 states, "Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying." 🦋 So in times of trouble, here's a way you can try to calm the nerves: 🦋 1. Rejoice: remember the times God helped you in the past. It will give you confident hope. He's your confident hope. 2. Be patient: This will help you increase your endurance for future problems 3. Keep praying: this will help you stay focused on God. 🦋 We don't have to allow our problems to control us. Once you stop ✋🏾 overthinking and practice focusing on HIM, you will learn how to walk in victory in ALL circumstances. #shiftyourfocus

Listen up, friend. 🌼 When you feel like you don't know if you're on the right path and it feels like God is silent, ask yourself this question: "Why am I doing task A, task B, and task C?" 🌼 If you feel like you're lost, check your motive. Are you doing those tasks, making those plans and decisions because you want to serve the Lord in that way? 🌼 The godly work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically (Romans 12:11). 🌼 When you realize you are doing something for the Lord, you will realize you are on the right path despite the fact you might not see results yet. 🌼 What a reassuring feeling that is. #Godsplan
