Today's Revelation...Separate!

Today on facebook my God message said,  "Everything that irritates you about others, is your key to understanding yourself. What angers you in another person is an unhealed aspect of yourself. If you had already resolved that particular issue, you would not be irritated by its reflection back to you."
This message blew me away! Today started off good, but then turned bad! By the time I got home I was so irritated and frustrated with people and the world! However, I understood that it wasn't worth me flipping out. So I decided to simply go to sleep! Just before I actually went to sleep, I texted a few friends to pray for me because I knew I really needed prayer for whatever I was going through. So even as I began to lay my head down to sleep I casted all my cares on the Lord and I went to sleep!
When I woke up, I felt a little uneasy still, so I decided to watch Bishop Jakes bible study online. While hearing the word of God, I signed onto facebook and decided to see what my "God Message" was and all behold it was this! It literally blew my mind! I couldn't believe it! It was literally a wake up call and it made total and perfect sense. I know some people think "God Message" recycle sayings, but hey it knows when to speak to you and today it definitely spoke to my spirit! I am still in total awe of it, right now! Ha!
This journey called life, definitely isn't a easy one! There are so many twists, turn-arounds, land-slides,  and bridges that we have to go through and I am learning how to go through this them with understanding, peace and love! I am learning and coming to grasp that there are some things that I have to go through, with out family and friends being on my side! I am learning how to simply let go. In order to become the person God wants me to be, it's going to take all of that. Even Jesus had to become separate from His Father in order to become the final product and to fulfill His purpose. It took a while, but I am finally understanding the road leading to my purpose. I haven't quite figured out my purpose yet, but I am understanding the path directing me to it! I'm understanding that the decisions I make is not always going to be understood, it's not going to be the popular vote, nor will it be liked and/or agreed with. I am coming to understand that people who I thought would be there during this journey will be there every step of the way, but I'm learning that I need to simply separate. Friends and family (who I thought would be there for its entirety) are not going to be there throughout this journey...and you know what...I'm ok with that!
I was feeling sad about it at first, but just like Jesus, I have to go into the wilderness alone. Mom, dad, sisters, cousin nor friend can always help me with my decisions. I have to be ok with making wrong decisions. It's ok! Because that is what I will need in order to grow! If I am tempted, I have to be like Jesus and speak the word! It's time that I be about my Father's business. By doing so, I will soon find out my purpose and fulfill it. So I too, be like Jesus and say "It is finished!" (John 19:30)
Therefore, on today I vow to myself to always love myself no matter what! By truly loving yourself, only can you truly love others. (Galations 5:14)  I vow that I take care of myself-mind, body and spirit. It's time that I get my health in check! Even greater, it's time for me to believe in myself like never before! I have gotten this far, so it's time to push myself much farther and not get complacent! I vow that I trust and believe in God even more! I have to! For faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen! (Hebrews 11:1) It's time that I build upon my faith. It's time now to speak to mountain and tell it to move! (Matthew 17:20, Mark 11:23) I am encouraged to go on! No longer can I wait on others to do it for me...NO it's time that I do it for myself. I may feel lonely while on this road, but I know that I'm never alone! For God is with me...even until the end of time. (Matthew 28:20)    No more living inside a box...I am breaking FREE!    Be Bless and Walk in the fullness thereof! =)

Ready for A Change

~God, Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change things I can and the Wisdom to know the difference~

Ok,

So I've been definitely thinking lately....it's time for a change!! I'm tired of the same ol', same ol'. I need something different. I need to take a risk! I need to take a leap of faith.

At this point, I'm definitely not worried what others will say. It doesn't even matter! This change is FOR ME! I feel if I don't do it...I'll never do anything else in my life. I am 24 years old and I am tired of playing it safe! I can never grow playing it safe. I can never make a mistake and learn from it by playing it safe. It's time for a change!

I am definitely praying about it, so don't worry! But it's time for a change. A change in my mind, body, soul, and spirit! All I ask is you do these three things for me:


     1. Pray for me!
     2. Hold me accountable!
         -Whenever you see me slacking, ask me how it's going? How am I maintaining?
     3. Encourage me!
          -Only constructive criticism is accepted! 
          -I have enough self-doubt alone, I don't need yours!

Transformation Count Down in 5.....4...3...2....Take Off!
