Be Extraordinary, "mediocre "is so yesterday!!

I have been thinking of this notion where one just settle for the norm, settle for mediocre, mediocre simply means of ordinary or moderate quality, neither good nor bad; barely adequate in other words not making it, so why is it that we settle for “mediocre” when we are called to be much more than that, we are more than over comers, yet we stay in our “comfort” because we are scared of stepping into the unknown, scared to not be in control, why do we wreck our brains over being in control? We are not meant to be in control that is God's territory, all He wants us to do is follow His ways and leave the rest up to Him. He has already worked things out for us the bible says that “he knew us even before we were formed in our mother’s wombs”, if He knew that why can’t we just give Him the benefit of the doubt?

I know because we feel inadequate of this crazy indescribable love He has for us that is explained right through the Bible. There is one quote that is so near and dear to my heart and I am really trying hard to keep it as a reminder for me not to settle for “mediocre” it is: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Maryanne Williamson


When I read this quote I am so aware of the great power within me and that power will not allow me to just settle to be ordinary or barely adequate, the power within me is the same power that allowed Jesus to conquer the grave and that same power resides inside of us all, come let us stretch our arms to the heavens and shake off the mediocrity of life and strive for the best strive for excellence after all we are royal priesthoodJ. God created us to live lives that are EXTRAORDINARY, and in that word there is no space for being mediocre…be the best you can be, seize the moment, right now!!

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” 1 Peter 2:9

My 2018 Lessons learned..

Tonight I have so much joy in my heart, as I reflect on this year. We have had so many setbacks yet God ordained our come back. We are on the verge of entering a new season and I am so expectant within my spirit. I cannot contain the excitement. This year has taught to love my family, my husband, my kids and my mother and not forgetting my Bestie Bianca. These were the ones who stood by me this year when I was down and out they picked up. My best friend has been a sister to me in word and deed God has strengthened our relationship so much. The ones whom I thought were my sisters they fell by the way side and made me wiser. Life showed me who will show up and support me. Through all of our setbacks and trials I have learned to trust in Jesus more and less on man. GOD HAS allowed me to accept the things I cannot change and accept people for who they are. GOD has taught me to forgive quickly and continue to pray for the ones who persecute me and cause me harm, God has taught ...

He works all things out...

And just like that my life has changed, from dreaming of becoming a Teacher and having my own class things changed just like that. I survived my first full week at school. Days of preparation and laying of foundation. As I sit and type these notes, my heart is so full. I am filled with immense gratitude to God for paving the way for me. I work with the most amazing colleagues who have the love of education rooted deep within them. The lesson I learned this week is that preparation is key, if I want my day to flow the next day, I need to prepare the day before so that I can get everything done. When one has had so many trials along the path of life it's hard to believe that relief is here and that it's just teething process we have to get through now. God does give you the desires of your heart when you trust Him to do so. When we submit our plans to Him, He works out a perfect plan  for us. He promises in His word that He will work all things out for our good (Romans...
