MOTHER

Motherhood is beautiful yet not always easy to walk in. There are days when women feel down and out. Plain tired emotionally and physically. It is in those days you and me should just take time out and make time to refresh in order to carry on with the daily tasks. It can be draining on your physical health if you do not put time aside to reflect, regroup and restart. 

It's a privilege be called Mom and no one deserve to be treated ill as a woman. Eventhough some may not have gave birth to children themselves ,they are also seen as Mother figures in someone' s lives. Just because you didn't give birth to a child does not make you any less than being a mother. 

Our purposes is different in life but at the end it has a way of  intertwining into one another. So do not regard yourself useless if you don't have children. There are no timeframe to anything in life and do not compare yourself as mothers. 

Maybe you have lost a mom and this year it's difficult for you to celebrate Mothersday. Embrace it my dear friend. Gods comfort 🙏 is around you. His angels are giving you the strength to hold on to the good memories and know you are loved by our Heavenly Father. 

He after all is close to the brokenhearted. Let's learn from each other and pray for each other. We all surely need prayer to master the Motherhood journey.

We celebrate you Women of Strength!!

Loyalty has an expiration date!

We often feel obliged to hang on to relationships or friendships because of loyalty. We tend to be the nice person forgetting the other parties no longer are loyal to you because their loyalty has expired a long time ago. It is not your fault that they are no longer loyal ,it's just that you were being so nice not to see the signs. 

When you should allow family, friends or a relationship to go , let it go!. You don't have to force something that are not worth all your time and effort. There is a season and a reason for everything under the sun.

Stop forcing something that no longer serves a purpose in your life. Reflect on the cons and pros and embrace the new opportunities coming your way. You have so much to see, explore and relive to hold on to things and people that only cause you heartache and pain. 

Become the driver of your life once again. Thank the lessons learned and move on.

Getting Back Up!

 I am someone that easily gets irritated when things do not go my way. Yes maybe as you reading that sentence you will say that cannot be. Well, that is true. I am distracted easily but one thing about me is that when I want to start again with something I will go all in. I will get up, dust myself off and start again. It doesn't matter how many times I must start again but I will get up again.

I think the reason that you and I are still here is because we still did not do what is expected by us. Each one of us do have that one thing only you and I still has to discover and that one thing is waiting for you and me my friend. I know you are asking, what thing? I also do not know and sometimes I think I know what it is but than again I go into another direction. 

SO what is it that thing? I do know the fact that you are reading this post is that you are just like me, searching for that thing that will give us the reason to stand up in the morning and going into the day with great enthusiasm. I may not be a great writer now but you know what I enjoy it and I am going to make it my mission to master it. I am tired of thinking that I cant whilst I have the ability but not always the will power. 

I have been neglecting my blog and I am so sorry  for that but I want to ensure you that I am coming back like never before!. Tomorrow is not promise and I might as well make use of this day today. Remember my fellow reader that you have a purpose to fulfill and it will come when you are in position. So get yourself ready and continue doing what you are doing. Even if you do not see the results yet, but start to visualize it and see it coming into existence. 

It will manifest.

 Get up again!

Lots of love!

Amazing Grace

The past couple of days I have been thinking a lot about grace. This made me wonder what is it really about grace that is so amazing. We are familiar with the song “Amazing grace” but do we really understand the meaning thereof?

The definitions I found on grace are as follow:

·         “courteous goodwill”

·          “bring honour or credit to someone or something by someone’s attendance or             participation”

·         “freely unmerited favour”

In this regard I am mostly focused on the grace that are spoken about in the Holy Bible that the Christian community speaks about as I am a firm believer in God Almighty. This does not mean I would force my beliefs down to anybody as everyone has their own way of acknowledging that there is a Higher power that has the complete control above everything. This than brings me to the word grace, of who God is to me. Gracious, good, honourable, freely given unmerited favour. This means I don’t have to do anything to obtain this grace but it is freely available and one should only be able to receive it through faith.  All of us have a measure of faith regardless of what we belief in. There are always that inch of hope for the better.

When I look back on my life I can trace back on this amazing grace. Amazing because of the ways I lived, did not add up to the grace I received so freely.

There are times in our lives when we are walking on the paths that are simply not good for us emotionally, spiritually, psychologically or physically. Circumstances we find ourselves in that leads to life- changing break downs, destructions in relationships etc. that are unhealthy to us as an individual that ultimately escalate to other relationships. We don’t always realise this at first but somehow we will get to the point where there is no way out. It is in those hopeless moments when we can experience this amazing grace even though we might feel we don’t deserve it at that particular time but it is usually those times where grace brings us out of unfavourable situations.

Everyone deserve this grace and we should also extend it those around us. It does not matter what situation you might find yourself in right now, remember this amazing grace that are available for you and me. We just need to take in a receiving heart posture that are willing and open to receive this amazing grace.

Let us be a gracious hand to someone today.

Battlefield of the mind

 Have you been fighting battles in your mind lately?

Battles can be anything from lies ; fear; disbelief; anxiety, sadness  or anything that make you feel negative and depressed.

I still struggle with negative thoughts. Thoughts that want me to give up on things I started or dream about. It is in the mind where you can either win or loose your battles. This mean if you win in your mind you will win in the physical. 

Our minds have an incredible influence on our words and actions. One can determine from someone's attitude which thoughts they ponder on. 

The question than how do I control what I think about ?

Well you can choose what you think about.Its totally up to you. If you dont like a thought that pop up , immediately push it out of your mind and replace it with good things.

Focus on the positive things in life and you will draw positive energy towards you.

So what results is it that you dont like at this moment in your life? Re-evaluate your thought process and you will determine the root cause. 

Think what you think about.

Win your battles in your mind!

New beginnings

There is something beautiful about the start of a new year. You get the oppertunity to start again.

How many times have you made vision boards and seldom achieve all your goals? Maybe you did manage to achieve them all. Well done to you!  I sure still have to go again at it this year.

This is a chance to reflect on last year's  goals and the reason why it was not reach.  Identify the stumbling blocks and work out strategies to reach all of them in a realistic manner. 

It is therefore important to have S.M.A.R.T goals which means Simple,Measurable,Attainable, Relevant and Timeframe goals.  Let us refrain from making unrealistic goals and when you reach February you are exhausted because you have put to must pressure on yourself. 

Also refrain from comparing yourself with others it will just make you miserable and you will loose your focus. You are only in comparison with yourself. At the end of the year you should be able to trace back how you have grown into fulfilling your dreams step by step. 

New beginnings gives us the opportunity to start afresh.  So use your time effectively in order to discover your full potential. 

Lets jump in!!

Appreciation

 

Find appreciation  where you are

Have you ever scroll through old pictures and got that feeling of gratitude? The moments captured in a picture make me appreciate the things I have done, went through and where I am currently in life. It is beautiful to see the progress that you have made in the process. Yes there were times when you got of the trail but thank God for His grace.

It makes me realize that we should appreciate everything in life. Our families, friends , experiences and memories. Right where  we are this moment is where you were meant to  be. Start to see the beauty in the mundane things of life. Just be in the moment and live!!
