Keep Going! Don't Lose Sight of HIM...

I wanted encourage someone out there to keep going. Whatever that means to you. Whatever you maybe going through. But never lose sigh of the Lord. 

We tend to get side track & start yearning for blessings & a breakthrough that we forget about Him. He has it ALL under control. What today looks like won't last forever.

Yesterday is in the past. Leave it there. Don't carry baggage from years ago. Forgive yourself, let go & let God. 

I myself started to get SO caught up in what God has for me next that I forgot to focus my main attention on Him. Without Him none of what I currently have would be possible...

So again, let's not get so caught up in what He's going to do & be happy for what He has done for us today. 

Have a blessed day <3

Thankful Week: The Little things...

I got this idea from a blogger by the name of Erin over at Sweetness Itself. I saw someone "like" one of her photos on Instagram & checked it out. She shared what she was thankful for by snapping a photo of her notebook. I thought that was cool. 

My handwriting isn't the best so I'll be typing what I'm thankful for this week via here my blog....

-I'm thankful for my mother still being around
-Having awesome co-workers
-Being able to walk on my own
-Not being severely ill & in the hospital
-Having a car to get me where I need to go
-Being blessed in order to be a blessing to others
-Having testimonies to share with others
-Being able to read
-A roof over my head
-Great support system
-For God loving ME as I am
-HIM never giving up on me
-My strength

Increase Your Thankfulness...

Thankful people can worship wholeheartedly. Gratitude opens our hearts to God's peace and enables us to put on love. Discontented people constantly calculate what's wrong with their lot in life. 
To increase your thankfulness, take an inventory of all you have (including your relationships, memories, abilities, and family, as well as material possessions). 
Use the inventory for prayers of gratitude. On Sunday, before worship, quit rushing around; instead, take time to reflect on reasons for thanks. Declare Sunday as your "thanks, faith, & hope" day. Celebrate God's goodness to you, and ask in prayer for all your needs for the week ahead.

Thank you! Hello! And All That Jazz...

Although it's been a week since my last...random blog post "What Bothers Me About Breast Cancer Awareness Month". I feel like it's been a month!

What have I been up to? Work, getting my mentoring program together (MY Girls), work, & blogging over on my beauty blog. I haven't had much to report about other than my protein diet that I did for a few weeks.



I'm still doing the hair challenge, I'm still happy, & still praising His name. Life is so so so so much better than a few months back. It's crazy. I mean those months seemed like 6 long, depressing months!


On a better note, I've noticed throughout the last few weeks I've gained quit a few followers. HIIIII, thank you for following me. For whatever reason, I'm glad you're here. I hope you can take something from my blog & use it in a positive way :)


I just wanted to get this post OUT THERE & properly say hello to everyone & thank you for the love & follows. I'll be checking you new people out if you have a blog that's under your profile.


I plan to talk more about my hair journey, official update on ME...my life. More so for me, & share a few projects I've been working on. I hope those that find the different things I will post, find it interesting & will support them, if not, that's quit alright :)


Have a blessed day everyone...will be posting soon!

Let Go, Let God...

Earlier I tweeted "Feeling free. That's what happens when you let go, & let God" meaning not worrying about a thing & leaving it up to him to deal with. His power & strength is much more stronger than my own. At times I feel defeated. Well many times. For example: Turning in a job application, and not worrying about if you'll get an interview/job. I'm not stressing myself over this part of my life anymore. I haven't been since interview number 2! God has a plan for me...

I just need to remind myself that God is not done working on me & blessing me. All of this is just another test...lesson. Almost like the whole too good to be true before something great happens or appears again. My patience is something that I've been working on for the longest. I may never master that. But I can say I have a better grip on self control. Meaning what I say (watching what I say & to who), how I think (affirmation) & engaging in certain things. Like I've said before, I'm a work in progress.

Thank you Lord for your unconditional love, overwhelming supply of gifts, & for making me ME!

Yesterdays Blessings!

I just wanted to post something really quickly before going to bed.


Before I went to bed the other day, I said my prayers like I always try to do before going to bed. I woke up yesterday afternoon to two blessings! God is so good. I didn't even worry about how it was going to work out or anything. Just prayed about it and went to sleep. He asked my mother to wake me up and I received my blessings. 
One that I would like to share was that someone contacted me about signing their child up through my mentoring program. 


I am so thankful!!! I think it's great when others can share what God has done for them. I will now write (not type) in my personal journal and prepare for later today.


What blessings have you shared with others?


God bless...
