The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. -Matthew 7:25 (Thank You Jesus for being my Rock.)
I saw this on Instagram, screenshot it, and then saved it in ‘Notes’ in my phone for a reminder for ya know, wheneva. π‘
Here are some more words of wisdom and insight I randomly read this week…
“Leveling up takes isolation, separation, & extreme focus.” This is so true. Sometimes we just need quiet time ya know. (Shhh.) Sometimes you just got to hear yourself think. No opinions, no projecting, and no, NO noise. Chile, sometimes I don’t even get on social media because I don’t feel like having an opinion today. Not that anyone is talking to me directly. But you know how social media goes. Quotes, comments, and the Shaderoom leave no rock unturned for you to have a personal thought about something or somebody that has nothing to do with you at all. So, yeah some days I just choose to just not.
“Praying for me and all my homegirls.” Absolutely!! I love to see my girls winning. Whether it is in work, relationships, self-care, love, and life. Success comes in many forms and I’m definitely here for it when it comes to my homegirls. I want to see all of us win. Individually and collectively! I see you Chile.π
“Knowing me and knowing about me are two different things.” I’ll just leave that right there Chile.βοΈ
“To be treated well without asking for it hits different.” Mmm… it’s no better feeling. β₯οΈπ
“I’m in my calm era, I just let things be.” Yep. As I’ve gotten older, wiser, and more mature. I know that silence is more powerful than providing a point. π
“What you think about all day is what you end up manifesting.” Life has been a lot, in the best way yes. But that doesn’t mean I haven’t complained or even dreaded doing thangs. And honestly, I really don’t like the vibes. I know better. So, I’m intentionally trying to do better. Nothing changes if nothing changes, right? I once heard in a sermon and I’ve even read in one of my Daily Devotions. “Do not dread anything, instead be thankful that you get to do it.β So the last two weeks to be exact I have been having the mindset of “I GET TOβ instead of “I HAVE TO.” I don’t like seeming, feeling, or being ungrateful. I get on my own nerves when I complain and I don’t care to be around complainers eitha. I mean, let’s be real here, we’re human and sometimes that gets the best of us even when we know better. But the point is to get a grip. To recognize and to do better. And literally that’s what I try to do every single day of my life. Do better. Be better. Because Chile, when I take inventory over my life most of the thangs that I prayed for is my life now.
Alright, let me go ahead and go before I get long winded here. Which was not my intent. I just wanted to stop by and have a short chat, share a little something, something with you. It’s raining. It’s a comfy cozy day. I’m working from bed. I’m trying to learn a few thangs about a few thangs. βHow Toβ to grow my business to be exact.
Readjusting and adjusting to new life and being on a whole different journey. A journey I have never been on before. And if I am honest, I’m scared. But I know that God did not give me the spirit of fear. But He gave me the spirit of POWER, LOVE, AND A SOUND MIND!!! (2 Timothy 1:7) So, I’m still. (Quiet.) I’m in my Word, heavy! And I’m trusting God like I always do. Some days it’s harder than others. But like I said earlier, inventory. When I look ova my life…mmm God, yeah God, He be working. He always Provides.
