Relax. Take a deep breath. Now, exhale. Take another deep breath. Exhale. Let the stress of the day leave your body as you exhale. Let the stress go and release all your tension. Shake it off if you need to. Tonight, let your stress go. Take a step back and remember everything you’ve accomplished. Remember […]

Keep The Faith And Keep Moving Forward
You are not alone. Sometimes you have to repeat this to yourself over and over again. Sometimes doubt, insecurity, obstacles or heartache make you feel that you do not have a friend in the world. Repeat after me: I am not alone. God is with me. I am not alone. God is with me. God […]
See The Beauty In The Struggle
Have you ever reached a point where you feel you just can’t go on? You finish one battle only to begin another. You work through one obstacle only to be confronted with another. You leave one closed door only to be met with another. You feel like you are constantly struggling, right? But, I’d wager […]
Never Forget How Far You’ve Come
You’re not where you are by accident. You’re here because you’ve prayed a lot. You’re here because you’re a fighter. You’re here because you don’t know the meaning of “quit”. You’re here because you are strong. My grandmother used to look at me and ask, “You ain’t got no quit in you, do you, girl?” […]
Boundaries
I often read blogs and content of Facebook pages about “setting boundaries”. I see things like, “If you don’t set your boundaries, you’ll get run over” or “Make sure you set those boundaries”. I’ve sometimes thought that those quotes and narrative sounded a little cold, that they sound mean or unkind, but I don’t think […]
No Beauty Shines Brighter Than That Of A Good Heart
All of us have our own perceptions of beauty. We see a beautiful face and we think, “Oh what a beautiful face”. Or we see a really fit, youthful body and we think, “They look so young and fit.” And sometimes our thinking is wistful. We long to be like them, to not have the […]
I Believe In The Mighty Power Of Prayer
I BELIEVE in the Power of Prayer. Isn’t it wonderful that God created prayer as a primary method of putting us into personal contact with Him any day or night, any hour of the day? He is always there. He’s always with you and always ready to hear our prayer. Even when you cannot mouth […]
Either They Like You Or They Don’t
Some people are just not going to like you. No matter what you say or do, some people just won’t ever like you. And that’s not on you. That’s something to do with them. It’s who they are. Either they like you or they don’t. Never try to convince somebody of your worth. If a […]
No Matter What You Do
You have to live your life for yourself. You can’t let anyone else’s opinion change who you are or what you do. Once you start changing who you are to please someone else, you can become stressed, less confident, less self-assured and depressed. No matter what you do, someone will talk about you. Someone will […]
What Goes Around, Comes Around
It’s true. You get what you give. Sometimes what we want so, so much is something we are not giving. And because we don’t give it, we never receive it. What do you think other people see when they look at you or what do you think they feel “comes from you” once they’ve been […]
