I touched on this a little in my last post but I was wanting to share a little more about it. Once you wander out of your comfort zone and find your voice, many new things begin to happen. You may have to keep pushing a bit, but finally amazing things happen.

When you are sitting quietly in your comfort zone, the things that you are supposed to be speaking into our world are not getting said. While you are in that comfortable place there will even be huge lies that come to you and tell you that you are of no importance and have nothing to say.

Anytime that I voice comes to you and says that you can’t do something, do it for sure!! Beat the odds! Don’t listen to those lying voices! It is a lie that you are less important, I hear that all the time just to let you know!! I don’t listen to it anymore!!

Those are just Ungodly Beliefs and I’ve learned to constantly replace them with Godly Beliefs!! Just like the lies can grow and multiply in you, so can the truth!! The more you get brave with what you are supposed to do, the more that presents itself to you as opportunities!!

Stay connected to people that will encourage you!! You have to FIGHT for what you have to do!! Those lies and your enemy doesn’t give up easily! Don’t be surprised if you have a whole group of people that you have always loved and depended on standing around you telling you that it is impossible! There is ALWAYS a price to pay when you are going BEYOND where you have been. Once you get over that hump, you are there!! It’s amazing!! It’s worth it all!!

Go ahead and venture out BEYOND!

Don’t listen to the naysayers!

Those are lies!

Listen to the TRUTH!

See you soon!!

Matt. 7:7…”Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

See y’all soon❤️

Seriously, whenever you are launching a book it feels so much like birthing a baby! The preparation for it is little by little… it grows into a reality…then “Wow” it’s time for it to be born on this earth. Something new that no one has every seen before. Everything about it is unique and brand new!!

It’s exciting to create something brand new!! I think that’s what I always loved about giving someone a new hairstyle! Something brand new!! It’s exciting to be able to do that but it stretches you way out of your comfort zone.

When I am giving someone a new style I am taking a risk…I am stepping out there and doing something that I don’t know if they will like and I’m just winging it! Same with writing a book, I am taking a risk that no one will like it or get anything out of it…but the growth that takes place in me when I do it is incredible!

I am letting my voice be heard in the world! I am being ME!! I am being the ME that I was created to be and offering the gifts that were put inside of me to offer to other people!! Don’t hold back from being you!! You were made uniquely on this earth for a purpose! The thing that fights the hardest against you to quiet you down is exactly the thing that you will help others with!!

Isn’t that amazing? Our most hideous trials are our biggest accomplishments!! My technological skills were not good getting started!! That right there would have been enough to stop me…. but no…I learned!! I tried new things, made new accomplishments!!

Don’t let the big mountain ahead stop you from going forward! There is a story in the Bible about Joshua and Caleb…

When the 12 spies were sent to scout out the Promised Land, 10 came back believing the circumstances and situation. They believed that they would be wiped out by the inhabitants of the land. The facts told them that they were smaller and weaker than the people that lived there. They listened to the enemy’s lies about their circumstances. However, Joshua and Caleb believed God’s promise (truth) that they would overcome their enemies and live in the land. Believing the Truth enabled Joshua and Caleb to enter the Promised Land while the other 10 died in the wilderness!!

Wow!! I want to believe the truth!! I want to learn new things, I want to be ME in the earth and not listen to the giants in the land that say, “No you can’t do it!”

I encourage you to do the same!!

Don’t stop trying and moving forward!

You can do it!

Listen to the voice of TRUTH!!

See you soon❣️

This Christmas I am determined to hold onto me and what I feel like I am supposed to do for the holidays!! I know some people love shopping and buying lots of little goodies for everyone and baking and all of it. I really don’t, at least I don’t like doing it on demand and maybe it just hasn’t been presented to me correctly just yet!!

It came to me this morning that our family has grown so quickly that I have to find new ways to celebrate and enjoy our holiday. We will soon have 8 grandchildren and this is a wonderful blessing! We have lots of things going on in our lives and have had to learn how to keep things as simple as possible. We have a blended family and so many gatherings that all of our children have to attend.

I decided to have a day 2 weeks before Christmas that is just food, games and spending time together. The gifts are too complicated and some of the people hardly know one another and haven’t got to do life together. So let’s just hang out, see what one another are doing in life and enjoy one another’s company!! That just works for me this year!! It gives me great peace in doing it that way!!

So figure out what works best for YOU!! Figure out what your tradition might be!! No guilt, no expectations just think about what you really feel comfortable with in your gut!! Some people actually stress themselves out so much during this time of year and I really can’t go there. The legacy I would like to leave is to have your own voice and your own identity in life. You were made the way you are for a reason, listen to that!!

I love to give more than the next person, but I don’t like to give under pressure. So my giving will be of myself and my time… that’s what gives me peace and joy!!

Don’t get lost in the Season!!

Just Be You!!

You have a voice and it’s needed!!

No guilt, no pressures!!

It’s the little things!!

See you soon!!❤️

It seems like I have shared this subject before, but it is something that is hard to keep doing. There are always many distractions trying to steal our time and take away from what we need to be doing.

I am so excited to be sharing my book and having a group of ladies walk through the workbook that I’m in the process of designing right now. That is something that I had nothing to do with. and it just came about. Because we are working through this thing I have to keep working on the upcoming chapters for the days ahead. This is making me have to stay focused!! i am so happy for that, because I need it!!

What I am focused on right now is learning new things online to help get this message out to others. People are desperate and hurting and I have been there!! If they can learn the new mindsets then they can have hope!! God told me whenever I started my book that it is starting a movement. I didn’t have lots of confidence at first to tell anyone that, but now that it is happening, I do!! I have experience birthing things through from the beginning. I have done it from a smaller scale before, but this is going to be on a larger scale.

This is exciting!! This is my purpose!! The day that the man held the knife to my throat and I said, “God I will do what ever you want me to do if you let me live!!” I lived and this is it!!! I’m so glad that I stayed focused on this one thing through my life…I had to stay focused that there was a purpose and things that did not line up with that purpose had to go!! I can’t believe that I didn’t give up on that and it has been almost 40 years waiting for it!! Woo Hoo!!!

This isn’t about me, this is about you and what you are supposed to be focused on doing!! What is on your heart to do? How can you change the world and help others? What all has been trying to distract you from doing this? Take some time to ponder these things! You do have something to bring to the Earth!! Don’t be afraid to ask for help getting started!! Be teachable!! Be open! Be willing to see things through a different lense. God thinks way, way bigger than we do!!

You and God got this!!

You can do all things through Him!!

Go for it!!

You are amazing and worth it!!

See you Soon!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just thinking this morning about when I was going through some pretty hard traumatic times. Those are the times when you are closest to the Father!! He shows up in the most amazing little and big ways. Nothing compares!!

It’s a time when we are totally dependent on Him!! Anything that we have comes from Him and has nothing to do with us creating it!! If we breath another day it’s because of Him!! I really love times like that!! I love it when you are experiencing a little heaven on earth! It’s a different realm!!

I’ve been missing Heaven lately!! I have to make myself get close to Him in easier times!! I am making myself get closer!! I miss His blessings and His voice and the amazing little things that He does sometimes to let you know that He loves you!!

Oh they are here, but there’s more!! I want more!! I can’t settle for just playing church, I want more!! Heaven is real and it is so wonderful and full of love and grace and prosperity!!

If we stay close to Him, and stay tuned into His voice we can experience the joys of Heaven right here on earth!! We can have peace, joy and long suffering! We just have to reach out and grab it!

I’m doing it!! I’m getting into His presence I’m surrendering it all to Him!!

He’s so good!! He never leaves!!

When we leave He just waits for us to return!

We need Him!!

Can’t do it alone!!
