Waiting.. 💕


 


New post! One you definitely won’t want to miss out on reading. 


WAITING…. one word that brings so many emotions to my soul. I was a bit melancholy last night as I laid down to go to bed. Thoughts of what I really want to happen that aren’t happening right now in my life flooded my mind. Tears spilled out and for a moment I wondered if what I wanted was ever going to happen and if God really was aware of me. 😔 That doubt and despair didn’t last very long, because instantly this post and these words came to my mind. It brought comfort to my heart and made me cry even more, but in that moment, I knew God knew. I knew He was aware of me and has a beautiful plan all for me. I knew that He loves me and He wants me to be happy. I knew that He knew I was struggling. That I was sad and discouraged. 


Friends, sometimes He has us wait. I don’t know why- heck I don’t know a lot of things. But one thing I do know is that God is listening. He sees all, and He is continuously blessing each one of us. 


I’d like to think that I’m somewhat good at waiting, other times not so much. I feel like I’ve had a pretty good share of it in the short 29 years in this earth. Waiting is hard. It’s difficult. It’s nerve wracking and such an emotional rollercoaster. 🎢 


All of us, at one point or another in our lives will find ourselves waiting. Maybe it’s for something that we truly want to have happen that is not happening yet. Maybe it’s for news we are really looking forward to. Maybe it’s for a trial to end. Maybe it’s for a light to present itself at the end of a dark tunnel. 


We all are familiar with the feeling. It’s slightly uncomfortable, it tests our patience and trust in God. And honestly it’s just plain hard some days to wait. Nobody likes to wait, but in the times of waiting, we can refine our faith in God. We can strengthen our trust in Him. We can find a way to enjoy our journey and be happy, no matter what is or isn’t happening.


Whether you’ve been waiting for a baby, a relationship, a job, a promotion, marriage, test results, a specific blessing, or a dream you’ve wanted your entire life… please don’t give up on God. He has not and will not ever give up on you! 


Just keep holding on. Keep persevering and taking another step forward. I promise you, that whatever you are waiting for, it WILL finally come. I don’t know when, but it will. In the meantime, be happy for those around you that receive the blessings you so desperately want. It was almost as if God was saying this right to me and to you in the most lovingly way, “your time will come little one. YOUR time will come.” 💕

My body: ❤️

  New post: My body: Warning ⚠️ vulnerable post ahead!  I’ve always been more on the plus size side and have really tried hard to work on myself to become more confident with my body. I’ve tried to feel comfortable in my own skin and to love and accept my body in every stage, because EVERY stage is beautiful! But I’m not perfect at it and some days are hard. I’ve recently gained some weight that has come with the stresses of life (uggg it’s the worst) life changes, etc. and have found myself absolutely CONSUMED with my body and how “awful” I think I look. 😓 I’m the girl in a room thinking of my weight and if I’m the heaviest. Constantly comparing my body to everyone else’s. I always thought that I had to have this “perfect” body to feel accepted and that if I didn’t fit this standard of beauty that I would have no value.  I find myself comparing my body to everyBODY that comes along. I remember for almost every birthday growing up, secretly wishing to be “skinny” and thinking that if

God is love ❤️

 I recently attended the funeral services of Cason’s uncle that unexpectedly passed away. Even though I didn’t know him super well, he was such a kind man! Tears fell as the talks, memories, and testimonies of his family, grandchildren, and friends were shared. I walked away feeling so uplifted ❤️🙏🏻 it was such a spiritual funeral. I think that’s the point, when loved ones pass, is to get you to reflect on your own life and the people around you. I felt so much love that day-So much care and concern that God is aware, He is in control, and He knows what we are all going through! I know God has a plan for each of His beloved children. I know He loves each and every single one of YOU! Yes, YOU. I know that not a tear falls that He doesn’t know about or of a hurtful thought that was said to you. He celebrates the good times and is there for us in the bitter times. He finds joy in the things that make us laugh and in the people we help along the way. He truly is our biggest fan and cheer

LIVE ☀️

  New post: I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting recently and realized that it’s been a while since I’ve felt inspired to write a new post.  Hardships and loss, like most thought provoking experiences we are all going to get to go through, bring lots of reflection. Loss of a loved one, compassion for those experiencing the loss, and the sorrow and grief that come along, that you don’t quite understand and realize, until you go through it yourself.  Death and change, ironically, make you think and reflect on your own life. The impact you make, the example you set, the kindness you show, the love you give freely, and the acts of service you show to others.  It (hopefully) makes you want you try harder. To be a little better. To love more. To give more. To serve more. To LIVE more. To not let the opportunities pass you by. To spend more time with the ones you love. To do the things you’ve dreamed of doing. To not sweat the small stuff and to actually LIVE. ☀️ So here’s to the new version o
