Mistakes

To admit a mistake takes an act of courage as well as the ability to use the mistake as a stepping stone towards growth. How many will admit to their mistakes and then turn around and smile at those who have the privilege of sitting in the throne of judgement and say, “I am so happy for this mistake 🤗”? Many become depressed and lose focus. They find themselves feeling as if their world has come to an end. But I come as the messenger to say LIES ALL LIES!!! A mistake can be for your advancement. A mistake can be the very thing that keeps you from making a mess of your purpose. A mistake can set you up for an opportunity of a lifetime. See, the key is changing your mind about the mistake. Instead of gathering balloons and eating ice cream out of the carton while crying, you begin to celebrate the fact that you now have the solution. You are now equipped with an inside view on what it feels like and looks like to do that particular thing wrong. Yep, you are now the proud owner of the key that unlocks the door to someone else’s SUCCESS!!! #sports #goals😍 #purpose #mistakes #lifequotes #womeninbiz #womenstyle #give #happy #dontgiveup #yep

Move Out of My Way

I was listening to Oprah yesterday and she was talking about faith. She said something that caught my attention and made me stop what I was doing and really digest it. She said faith is God saying “Excuse Me”. Often we face adversity and we climb into the bed with anxiety, fear, shame, and worry and expect them to make it all better. We use them as an excuse to hide away and not pursue what God has placed on the inside of us. After hearing that message it was clear that God needed me to move out of His way and let Him be the head of my life and my provider as I have quoted many times. The difference between then and now is that I believe it so deep that I did and it was scary and I didn’t know how but today I received an unexpected message. It was from a friend that I met on social media and she has been a blessing in so many ways. God tapped her heart and put my name on her mind and well, yet again, I had to move out of His way. Now a new journey is beginning. My faith is increasing and the vision that God gave to me is starting to manifest. It’s like God has placed a blank canvas in front of me and has told me to be still as He paints the details and eventually the Masterpiece will be completed.  It will catch the eyes of unbelievers and those that discounted His ability to take someone like me and create something that is of value and takes their breath away. In aw they will be because God used my broken pieces to create wealth and abundance within me. He can do the same for you if you are willing to get out of His way instead of bucking against the process. Patience, practice, humility, and perserverance are now my comfort and keepers.
