A Gem From March 31, 2019

Here’s a gem I intentionally left for myself.

Facebook Memory: March 31, 2019

I love how Facebook asks, “What’s on your mind?” Well…let me tell you. Lol

This morning I was reading last year’s journal entry (March 31, 2018). It began with a quote from Bishop T.D. Jakes. Basically, leave everything in God’s hands. He doesn’t need our help.☺️ Posting this for my Facebook memory for next year. Have to leave gems for my future self.

My theme for that year was “Clarity in 2019,” and it was definitely that. I learned, and am still learning, God always shows up and shows out when I leave things in His hands. Grateful.♥️

Gems From July 7th

I did not draw anything this morning. I actually slept in. Had a few crazy dreams but slept really well. Guess I needed a change of scenery or to be with my parents. I miss my mom. Her ashes were buried in a cemetery near here. I don’t usually visit graves after people die, but I have to go see my momma. I miss her so much.

Well, since I do not have anything new to share, I will share a few past gems from this day, one of which I reshared this morning on Facebook.

What a message! Blessings will get you through the lessons while the lessons prepare you for greater blessings. Just have to make it through the lessons…

I reshared this memory this morning with the following quote:

Still enjoying BET Plus, a vision that came to fruition. A couple of months before I snapped this picture at Essence Festival, I had attended Madea’s Farewell play. During the intermission, they played a video of Tyler Perry celebrating 25 years in the industry. I believe it was in this video that he mentioned Tylervision, which is very similar to BET+.

Y’all, we really must stay the course! If God has put a dream in your heart, I don’t care how impossible or outlandish it may seem, stay the course because IT WILL HAPPEN. You may have setbacks and become discouraged, but stick with it. Sometimes you have to put blinders on so that you are not constantly comparing your growth to others. Celebrate them, then put those blinders on and keep grinding. IT WILL HAPPEN!♥️ Tyler Perry is THE GOAT!

I was so excited to see this! Do you know how wonderful it feels to see someone’s dreams come to fruition? I don’t know about you, but it makes me hopeful because I KNOW God loves me too, which means my dreams will also happen.

Whew!! When I tell you this path has been anything BUT straight. I’m not going to lie, I have wanted to throw in the towel numerous times. Yet, here I am five years later, still following God’s lead. I know He’s taking me somewhere wonderful! I trust Him.♥️

Okay… that’s it for today. After I make a few posts on my other platforms and respond to notifications, I’m shutting things down for a while. I need to be present and enjoy my family. I love y’all!♥️
