Hello Sunday

This time I remembered it was Sunday. I don’t know what I was thinking last Sunday. Laughing

I didn’t really know what to write for today’s Hello Sunday so I went searching for inspiration. Well, I didn’t have to search long. When I opened X (I really wish he wouldn’t have rebranded Twitter), I had a notification that someone had retweeted one of my tweets from months ago. It was a comment I had made during former First Lady Michelle Obama’s book tour for The Light We Carry. It was a quote from her father—“You fall. You get up. You keep moving.”

Your faith will sustain you.

That’s today’s message–

You fall. It happens. Life happens.

You get up. Brush yourself off. Your story isn’t over.

You keep moving. That was only a small part of your story. God has so much more in store. Soooo much more.

Praying you have a wonderful Sunday. I love you!♥️

God’s Favor

God’s Favor by Donald Lawrence and the Tri-City Singers
Lyrics: Genius.com

I know that you don’t feel your best
Hold on, Be strong
God’s not forgotten you
Broken dreams got you feeling blue
Hold on, be strong
God’s looking out for you
Just remember at the end of the day
The favor of God can open the way
God’s favor, is more precious than life
(God’s favor, more precious, than life, to me)
I know that you don’t feel up to the fight
Hold on, be strong
The battle is not up to you
Oh I hear you say, it just ain’t no way
Hold on, be strong
God’s got the final say
Just remember in the midst of your down
The favor of God can turn things around
God’s favor more precious than life
(God’s favor, more precious, than life, to me)
So what if doors are closed
God’s favor can bring high places down
I know that you’ve been faithful
And when God get’s ready to bless you
There is nothing no man can do
God’s favor, more precious than life

God’s favor is surrounding you. Embrace it. It’s already yours.♥️

Year 50: Five Months In

Yes…I am speaking life and blessings over everything.

Happy 50 years–5 months to me!! Thought Year50, my jubilee year, was going to be a cakewalk. Laughing. This was not the celebration I imagined, but it’s all good. God is shaping and molding me into the woman I am destined to be. Smiling.

Going into this next month of life speaking life and blessings over everything and everyone I touch, reach, and encounter. Everything and everyone in my path will be blessed. Amen

I can here Donald Lawrence singing, “I Speak Life,” can’t you? Smile.

Good Night!♥️

Be Inspired

This week I have been seeing and hearing “Be inspired!” everywhere. Little did I know I would see it again this morning. Life is so very interesting. Can’t help but love it. Smiling

Facebook Memory: November 18, 2022

Today’s a new day! Be inspired to do, create, build or try something new. I love y’all!♥️

The message speaks for itself—Be inspired!

Last year, when I shared this message on my other Facebook page, I added the following:

Be inspired to do that thing you’ve been wanting to do but been too afraid to do.😘

Hmmm…

Well, that’s it. That’s the message. I pray you have an amazing weekend!

Love you!♥️

Are You Living in Your Worth?

Yes…I am! Another level of freedom.

Shared this on this date two years ago (November 15, 2021). At the time, I was really struggling with feeling worthy. I kept saying I was worthy of God’s best, but didn’t necessarily believe it; or rather, I believed it in certain aspects of my life. In other areas, I still felt I needed others’ approval to be deemed worthy.

When I tell y’all I am so grateful for God’s love, grace and patience. Over and over, He kept showing me that I was worthy of everything imaginable, but I couldn’t see it.

Then Year50 hit! Baby, when I said I refused to spend the next 50+ years like I had the last 50, something changed. It was like God said, “I can work with this!” I am so grateful He did not give up on me. Now, I don’t care who doesn’t approve of what I do or how I do it. This is my life, and I only have one. I’m finally living in my truth and I am loving every minute of it. God says I’m worthy and free to do so, so guess what—I’m doing it!

Loving and living life my way.♥️

This is my Year50

Never Settle for Less Part 2: Discipline

Found this gem this morning while searching X (Twitter) for the post I shared earlier. Thought it would be a great follow up post.

Discipline.

Are you disciplined enough to wait?

Here’s what I shared two years ago:

I’m not going to lie. Some days I am not sure if I am disciplined enough to wait. These past two years have really tested my tenacity. I know I cannot go back to what was. I refuse to do that. Don’t even have a desire to. However, I feel like I am in a boat paddling but getting nowhere; and honestly, I am tired.

A friend just sent me a job offer, but it’s not what I want to do. Of course I could accept it, but I know I wouldn’t stay. Then there’s this contract I am waiting to start. It’s one that I am really looking forward to because it is aligned with everything I want to do, but it keeps getting pushed back.

Am I disciplined enough to wait for what I want most?

Only God knows; however, at this moment, I refuse to settle. Until God says to do otherwise, I am going to be still and trust His timing. The contract has already been approved. All I have to do is be patient and wait. Y’all pray for me because if it’s pushed back again I don’t know what I’m going to do.🙏🏽
