Soooo blessed ☀️

I just feel so blessed. Blessed to have so many INCREDIBLE individuals in my life. ♥️ Blessed to have a loving and caring Father in Heaven who is so patient with me and who is always willing to help me & listen. He is always there and such a constant in my life. 🙏🏻 Blessed to have a flexible job with great co-workers. Blessed to have a wonderful family that God knew I needed. Blessed to have friends that even though they themselves are going through hard times, they help lift and give me a boost when I need it. 🙏🏻 I just feel special. We ALL are.

As I was catching up on some messages from friends and family last night, my heart swelled with gratitude for the wonderful people I have in my life. ☀️ I think when we stop and take a step back, we truly do realize how BLESSED we each are. We may not have anything going our way or working out the way we think it should, but just know that there is a greater plan in the works for you. A better one than you could imagine!

God is truly aware of you and what you’re going through. He knows your desires, wants, and needs. Your hardships, weaknesses, and doubts. Just keep having faith, looking for the good, and serving those around you. Whether it’s a simple text to say “I’m thinking of you”, or a pray uttered to God thanking Him for all your blessings, let us all take the time to count our blessings. That doesn’t mean our trials and hardships will go away, but I think it helps us look for the good & gives us more hope. We also dwell more on the positive things and get to see how blessed we really are.💕 #tooblessedtobestressed #havehope #itllworkout

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
