“Peace is trusting God while patiently waiting through the process …”
“You cannot have peace without patience.”
That’s what I shared four years ago. Today, I feel it more than ever as this side of 50 ticks down. The only way I can maintain the level of peace I have is first to trust God, then remember to be patient. Both are key! There’s so much God is doing while I’m waiting and moving—because I’m definitely moving—through the processes to get to where He’s taking me. Yes, where God’s taking me. I used to try to figure it out, which caused my impatience; however, now, I move and operate under the flow of His guidance.
That’s trust.
That’s patience.
That’s peace.
I pray your patience is bringing you peace. Please have a beautiful day. May it be filled with love, happiness, and joy. And if you need a little more patience, may it be filled with patience too. Smile.♥️
I don’t even know where to begin with this one. Hmmm… Here’s what I shared three years ago.
“Forever in awe of the power of manifestation. Don’t just think it. Write it down. Verbalize it. See it. Feel it. Walk in it. If you want it, manifest it!”
I wrote that at the height or tail end of the manifestation hype. Everyone was either walking in things they “manifested” or they were “manifesting” things. When I think about it, it was similar to the hype surrounding the Prayer of Jabez in the early 2000s. Back then, everyone was praying for God to “bless them, indeed,” and enlarge their territory. Even I was praying the prayer. And guess what? God enlarged my territory. I went from studying to become a chef to becoming a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN). Who knew?! I didn’t even know dietitians existed. Side note: Nothing against chefs because culinary and food are my first loves, but becoming a RDN opened doors and connected me to a world that was more aligned with my vision and lifelong dreams of helping others.
Manifestation…
I’m not sure when I began hearing about the power of manifestation. I believe it was during a period when I was first becoming active on Twitter/X (around 2014). Several weeks ago, I saw an article written by a lawyer I met on Twitter around that same time, 2014/2015. I hadn’t seen her name in ages. We were asked by another person we met on Twitter to help them form a nonprofit. Just thinking about it makes me smile because I can see where everything is connected to where I am today. I’m not quite sure what I manifested ten years ago; however, I do know I’m walking in what I manifested three to five years ago, and I’m watching it evolve. Smiling.
Oh, the power of being present and recognizing that I am already moving and living within my manifestations. Thank You, God, for not letting me miss this moment. I don’t have to wait another ten years, or read past journal entries, to realize I’m already in it.
I am truly, truly blessed!🥰

**P.S. Have a wonderfully blessed day and week. I love you!♥️
Greatness is in the eyes of the beholder—YOU. Whatever you consider to be great is what you usually strive for. And in order to get there, you must be greater than you were the day before. Be patient with yourself. It’s a process!♥️
I tried to save this for my mid–morning post (between 10:00 and 10:30 AM), but I couldn’t hold it. Listen, God has been too good to me for me to hold back my praise. Y’all, He’s so good.
This morning, Fred Hammond’s song, “When You Praise,” has been playing over and over in my head. The song says—
When you praise, when you praise, There should be a fire in your heart. Hands up raised, when you praise, Consuming every part because you know The GOD we serve will make His presence known, when you praise, When you praise
God’s presence is here!
I’m so very thankful for His presence in my life. There is none like it. None like Him. Whew!
That’s all. Thought I’d share just in case you wanted to praise Him too. Don’t hold it in. Praise Him now!
