How valuable is your time to YOU?

Do you always avail yourself for others? I do! You know that moment when you set out a specific time for someone and you got so used to that person meeting you at that time and these days its when you get used to chatting with someone on Whatsapp, Facebook chat, BBM or whatever social network site you are into. The disappointment remains the same when that person doesn't meet with you any longer, it hurts because you gotten yourself used to that. I have recently had that experience it was a comfort zone I got myself into. When that person was now all of a sudden busy and no longer had time for me I felt abandoned, I felt rejected to an extent. I was suffering in silence as it were…

It dawned on me even though I made it a priority to chat with this person I devalued my sense of time, my time didn't mean much to me because I availed myself no matter what I was busy with, I would answer every text in the fastest way possible and of course I projected that onto that person and was horribly disappointed when that person was no longer there. I got myself in a fix and I suffered in silence.

So what do you do when you are in this fix? You know what I did, I started using my time for my benefit, I decided to spend more time with my children, I decided to get back to my writing, I decided to use my time for doing good instead of abusing my time and being abused in return. I found this way I feel more fulfilled and my view have not changed of that person, I respect that person’s busyness at this time and it wont stop me from engaging in text conversations with that person again, I just wont allow it to affect me negatively anymore.

Life happens and when it does we must be flexible enough to adjust our habits accordingly so that it best serve us, we cant change others, we can only change ourselves and everyday is a chance for you

and me to be better than what we were yesterday…

Dust yourself off and try again...

Life hey, things change in a blink of an eye yet when we remain standing in the Lord it feels as though you and I can conquer anything as long as we abide in Him. I would be lying if I say to you that I am the optimistic Zenneline this morning because I am not, I am terribly conflicted. However I am finding solace in writing this because I know that someone out there will be encouraged by this. I reflect alot , on where I was and where I am and where I am going and I see the Lord's hand in all of it more often than not. As I am sitting here writing this with tears running down my cheeks as I feel so sad this morning, a total different experience to the one I had last week however I am thankful that I can still get up and breathe and brush myself off and try again. It being a new day should be good enough to start afresh but how does one do that when you feel that your whole world has been shaken. I always say that it's not what happens to us that matters it'...

I THANK YOU...

Today I have this IMMENSE gratitude towards people whom I have known for a season and whom have now either removed themselves from my life with ill intentions or whom has accepted my way of ending our season. I must say I never thought that some friendship doors that I had to close were laying so heavily on my heart and it was holding me back. I do feel FREE and I am moving forward at a pace that is surprising me, ALL GLORY TO GOD! I have such gratitude towards those people who have moved on for whatever reason and I am so filled with JOY this morning that my soul cannot contain it and I want to speak a blessing over each person whom I have had the honor of knowing but who has now moved on, I pray a blessing of GREAT things to come in your life and I PRAY THAT GOD WILL SHOW YOU MIGHTY THINGS AND THAT YOU WILL STAY CLOSE TO JESUS, IN JESUS NAME,MAY YOU LATTER BE GREATER THAN YOUR FORMER, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN! Just a small ENCOURAGEMENT for those out there who is still holding onto to...

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 ...
