The Queen's Journey

I encourage everyone to take that first step. To have Determination and Perseverance .  To CHOOSE to live .  If I hadn't done these things, my TODAY would not look like it does.  The opportunities that I am blessed with TODAY; the journey that I am traveling TODAY.....is all because I said "Yes" in my YESTERDAY! Don't let anyone, not anyone, hold you back from what you believe is the right path and purpose for you.  Of course, use discernment and listen to sound advice, but ultimately.... y ou must CHOOSE to live .  No one can do it for you.   It's up to YOU .   My TODAY is a result of my YESTERDAY .  And, I can say with certainty.....my actions in my YESTERDAY did improve my TOMORROWS . :)   What will your choice be TODAY... for your TOMORROW?    #CHOOSEtolive #live #liveandwin #loveliveandgive #determination #perseverance #firststep

Don't lose sight! You know you're on the right path when adversity begins to hit.  Don't lose sight! When Satan uses people to throw stones at you. Don't lose sight! KNOW WHO YOU ARE & WHOSE YOU ARE! I was momentarily blindsided, but the Holy Spirit recalled to me that I am WHO MY FATHER says I am, not what anyone else thinks of me.  Who are they next to my heavenly Father?  Remain obedient to the Father & His work.  But, be ready for the fiery darts of the devil to be launched.   He wants to sap you of your joy. But, the Lord is your strength & your Rock.  When the devil fires his weapon, the Lord has a response, too.  Remain in Him & He will remain in you.   Put on your armor of God & be ready for battle. (Ephesians 6:10-18)  Because the devil will be gunning for the blessed child of the one True King!  KNOW WHO YOU ARE & WHOSE YOU ARE...... & Don't lose sight!

ACCEPT YOURSELF as you are...continually working on growing and bettering yourself.     As I was journaling this morning, it became apparent that I had a difficult time accepting who God created me to be.  I still am a work in progress on this, too.  Since my life-changing decision in 2007 to seek out how to share what's in my heart with others, I embarked on a journey of discovering, AND ACCEPTING, my gifts God created me with.  They are there for a purpose! This journey of self-discovery and acceptance, and embracing it, has been tremendous.  It almost takes my breath away to look back and see the journey traveled.  I definitely have so much more growing to do, so much more to learn, but the journey is worth it.  The journey is what it's all about! I encourage every woman to embrace who you are.  You were created the way you are for a reason.  Embark on that wonderful journey of self-discovery, & of how to use your ...

When the storms of life blow through, will your Roots hold its ground? Or, will you be uprooted & tossed about like a rag doll?   Who, or What, do you turn to when life fails you?  When life is so stormy it's all you can do to hold on? Do you depend on a person to be Rooted?  Do you turn to a remedy-something you can do to be Rooted?   What happens when that person isn't there?  Maybe they passed away.  Maybe they are out of the country.  Maybe they have issues of their own at the time and can't deal with your storm.   What about the next time you argue with your "Root"?  That's a little disappointing to have to fight with your foundation...someone you trust won't hurt you.  But, in reality, they do.  That person who is your Root, will let you down.  They will disappoint you time and time again, and leave you feeling vulnerable, alone, insecure and unsecured.   Okay, so what about a remedy...

  DEAD BATTERY?         What are you hooking up to for a RECHARGE?     Life isn't in any person, any thing, or any activity. These things fade away & disappoint. Look to the GIVER of life & remove yourself from the merry-go-round of the continual " dead battery " syndrome.  Life doesn't have to be lived this way.       "... And the breath of the Almighty gives me life." ~Job 33:4
