Recovery Blues

0 Comments

Read Now
 

Memories of the good and bad floods my mind consistently!

Even though the bad outweighed the good times; I still tend to grasp on to what is now considered the “good old days!”

Mind blown at the concept of using this phrase; bones cracking from time to time, so this is not a dream indeed!

Reality! Splashing and revealing itself each day. Spent most of my years disassociated from the pain that was afflicted upon me.

Awaken from the coma I have been in; and realizing that 40 is just around the corner, and 50  isn’t that far behind!

40! 50! Vanity knocking at my soul; trying to put its claws within me to paralyze & destroy the progress made!

A Testimony! That is what our scars and wounds consist of!

A Gift! That is what today brings all of us who still have air in our lungs and a heart that still beats!

A Purpose! That is why we are still here!
​

Identity! Only found in the Lord & the GREAT I AM!

Resilience

0 Comments

Read Now
 
Everyone wants to wear the “Resilience Badge,” but no one wants to go through the hell that it takes to obtain resilience. 

Mental health stigma; judgment at its finest! 

Not knowing that a lot of us with some type of mental health disorder, also struggle with childhood trauma connected to one's story.

Resilience! We are the ones who struggle daily with our Mental Health; we are the true definition of resilience!

Recovery! It is all good and well for those who have struggled with alcohol and drugs; but when it comes to Mental Health it's like a plague that just can't be touched!

Ability! We, who struggle on a regular basis with what comes naturally for others; continue the journey that is paved ahead of us, and have a strength that no one will ever truly understand.

Fight! One can try their hardest to cut back on what is needed, support and resources are in the balance, we are just like anyone else who is struggling in this broken world. We have a big God; he's bigger than anyone who has hatred or greed in their heart. An ultimate war that has already been won!

Resilience at its finest! So, think twice the next time you treat one of my kind as if you're better and bigger, because we are in an army with the Lord on our side!

Be Still...

Be Still…

Things are getting real; and some of us are past discomfort.

Some of us have completely waived our white flags
and are just caught up in our own worlds for the time being.

​Some of us operate out of fear and anxiety of what is around us and what's to come…


Get angry!
Let your voice be heard!

But let's stop letting our emotions dictate our next moves.

We have every right to feel what we feel!
We have every right to demand justice!

Our actions become destructive instead of productive when we don't take the time to be still.

Sit still in our Father's presence; he knows us better than we do. He knows our strengths and weaknesses, as well as how we can contribute to what has unfolded in front of our very eyes.

We were all created for this moment in time; and have the weapons that will speak louder than any protest known to mankind.

Let's be still in the Lord's presence…
Let's be guided by our Father instead of our flesh & circumstances.

Let us grow closer to the one who has the wisdom and power; to completely shut down the ones who are trying to oppress others!

Let's be educated, equipped, & operate through the one who stands next to us, as well as ahead of us.

Let us be the true WARRIORS we were meant to be all along!

Let's be still.

MIRAGE

0 Comments

Read Now
 

Big emotions within; as we try to grasp onto our new realities. 

Many people in power are basing things out of emotions and their perspective instead of logic. 

They think they are in control and victory has been obtained, but little do they know that it is clearly a mirage!

Power was given to give Justice to the unjust and oppressed. 
Instead…creating a way to make things more complex! 

How we quickly forget that we are not invincible; and everything one does will return back ten times fold!

Ever heard of the saying you reap what you sow?

Judgment and punishment on others; then use God's name to justify actions of vengeance and power…

Is it still about others? Or is it about one's pride and ego, and taking out whatever offense or intimidates the ones who hold the power.

The rich get richer and the poor get beyond poverty; as everyone's focus is on their stake and  overall agenda. 

It's no longer about helping the poor, outcasts, and elderly.. but about popularity, status, and wealth; running over whomever to maintain what has been obtained! 

It's all a mirage…

Enjoy what is for the time being; because the real one in control is G - O - D!
​

Hold on to your faith my brothers and sisters in Christ; here comes our test and trials, put on your daily armor, and put your trust in the one who will never harm, betray, or forsake us!

Everything that is seen is a mirage…

​Victory has already been obtained, so keep it moving and have eyes that see and ears that hear!

Dear Frenemy

Dear Frenemy,
Here we go again! The tug of war that has been the dynamic of our relationship. One minute I'm consumed by the past, and put into a box that you and society have created… The next moment; I am reminded who I truly am in Christ, and the box has been demolished into pieces, and becomes nothing but a faint memory.


Placing people into my life to distract me on the path that lies ahead! Old wounds resurface; and those who don't wish me well, come in and out of my life, but only to monitor and drain what little energy that is within me. 


At times; I feel empowered by the Love, Mercy, and Power of my Lord and Savior! For choosing an underdog like myself, who has been consistently rejected by loved ones, and embraced by enemies! 


I see your slick moves and head games that you play, frenemy of mine! However, I tend to keep falling into your traps, but learning to not dwell as long, remembering who's by my side through it all! 

Little to no support in the flesh; good move there! But I am beyond grateful for the support and love that I do have, and an Almighty Father who always provides higher and bigger than we could ever imagine!


We do this dance on a regular basis; which I thank you for, because it is a platform for Endurance and Strength. As the attacks keep coming, I will eventually no longer be phased by you! 


So I guess I would like to say thank you frenemy of mine! For all the lies, betrayal, deceit, pain, and loss… Because at the end of the tug-of-war we do oh-so-well; there will be a Stronger, Disciplined, and Wiser Warrior. Who has the One (destroyer of souls and flesh) right beside me, smiling as your days are literally numbered! 






Not yours for long, 
Warrior-In-The-Making

​Anointed Prodigal :)

Here I sit in the beauty of your presence! 

Unconditional love; not even close to what others are capable of!

Meeting your children right where we are; no prerequisites needed, loving on all of us in the midst of us feeling defeated! 

What we see is nothing compared to what is unseen by our natural eyes. Others hold on to temporal things, and your children are holding on to you, our Eternity!

Equipping us with the Armor of God; identity in you, and special gifts that are meant to bless others, as well as part of the weapons to defeat what is not of you!

True identity, purpose, and worth can only be found in you! 

Peace, Justice, Love, Mercy, and Kindness…

A quarter of who you truly are! 

​Out here using others to heal and bind the wounded; while your rebellious children out here using others for their own agendas.

Acting out from childhood trauma’s…

Then it's you that gets blamed; but it's really Free Will that is at the reins!

Thank you for all that you are; and what you continue to do through your children. 

Naysayers are going to keep running their mouths, but the day you return all knees will bow down!

Dear Present Self....

Dear Present Self,
I am so proud of you! I mean really look at who you were 2-3 years ago, you are not the same person! I know that you struggle with this concept most of the time; and the people from your past recirculate to remind you of who you used to be, but that is no longer the case!

You have grown weary of the things and people that used to give you pleasure; and have matured to a new level and understanding of life and yourself.  The awareness of needing a spiritual foundation and to overall be healthy on all levels, that is major growth all by itself!

My dear, you are now in the messy middle and it feels like you haven’t moved much in this life, since you have decided that you wanted purpose and to be changed.

It’s a pace child! Not a sprint, and you are going the speed that is necessary for your journey, and for change to be a lifestyle vs a temporary state of mind. 

Stop comparing yourself to others; what is meant for you, you will not have to chase, beg, or change for it!

We are all on different paths, unique personalities, and gifts that were meant to be blessings to others.

(Stop dwelling on what was and what is not, let’s focus more on the present!)

You are unconditionally Loved by the Father!
Even though your family did not know how to love you.


You are Victorious!
Even though you feel like you’re far behind and barely keeping up.


You are a Warrior!
Even though you feel defeated most of the time.


This too shall pass; and all things work together for the good.
Stay focused on the present moment.
Armor up for the trials and life lessons.


​Realize you are Protected, Loved, and Wonderfully made; despise your current circumstance, you are not alone! 


With Love,
Your Sis in Christ

Seasons...

There is a season to grieve and a season to leave; people and toxic circumstances.

There is a season for love and a season for despair; but that is where the most growth originates from.

A season to laugh and a season to cry...

A season to live and multiply!

A season of fear; and waiting in the shallow end until it's safe to come out.

A season of betrayal and a season of redemption....

Recognize the season you are in; and realize that the Christ within will guide us, and not be misguided or blinded by the seasons that has transpired.

In the end; each season is temporary, and created to mold us into the Warriors we truly are, enemy defeated by the Almighty hand of God!

Dear PeopleĀ  Pleaser

0 Comments

Dear People Pleaser,

Why? That’s a good question, why are we beyond concern for others' responses or reactions, and afraid to create and stick to boundaries?

Who?
The people pleaser are the broken souls who walk around with unresolved trauma and conflict; seeking to be loved, valued, and wanted. Being the things that we wished were received, and staying in that “extra mile gear” to maintain our relationships.

Sad!
Yes, this is very sad indeed! In return for striving to please others with the wrong intentions, we are creating unhealthy relationships and becoming drained in the process.

Now What?
Being aware of our “people pleasing” is the first step; and being honest with ourselves and others would be next, which ends up creating healthier boundaries as a result.

Conclusion…
We have to heal this version of ourselves; and we are not able to do that on our own. We must surrender and let go of the things that were never meant for us to carry from the start!

We must realize that what we seek in others; only God can truly fulfill and provide in us, resulting in a healthier soul and being a blessing to others naturally. It is OK to say no, to have standards or boundaries, it doesn’t make us better than anyone else, it creates a healthier dynamic with yourself and others!

We are WORTHY of Beautiful and Amazing Relationships & Things, but we must believe this first, and realize our true identity in Christ!


With Love,
Your Sister in Christ

Who are you?

Who are you? The Arrogant Ones; who lift their noses with each title obtained behind one's name.

Who are you? The Judgmental Ones; who question other people's actions, based on what YOU would do.


Who are you? The Insecure Ones; who bully others out of things they are too intimidated to do.


Who are you? The Single Parent Shamers; counting the children that don't belong to you! Condemnation of status, and counting baby daddies, I think it's time for you to find a new hobby boo.


Who are you? The Racist Ones; who think they are better, based on the color of their skin. Creating generations of hatred & division, proud of what is, but stumble when confronted and put in one's place.


Who are you? Who are we; to think we are bigger and better than anyone other than the Great I Am, Jesus Christ? It's time to humble ourselves, because the wrath of God is not something to mock, or play with!


You think you are bad and bold now, but I am here to tell you all things are temporary, and the way we live now, please believe we will pay for it sooner or later.


Who are you?
