Turning points

In life I  have found we have many turning points that challenges the very core my being and we must make decisions and choices that will be for the better of ourselves, I have been hurt many times and I have been in a dark space for about 3 weeks and it was as if I was just existing holding onto the routines of life because that helped me keep my sanity, I have been in a place where I see what is happening in my life and when I shared that with others it almost felt like I was not being heard, like I was lying and yet it was my reality at that time, mine alone and yes many shed light but the only way they would actually know the extent of my hurt and pain is, if they had endured what I have, I reached a turning point where I decided to rather tell my story for God’s glory because in these dark moments I found my Savior to be near to me and no matter how lonely I felt I felt my Savior’s tangible love comforting me as the scripture says in Hebrews 13:5 “I will never leave you nor forsake you” it became real to me because I experienced God’s love and He enfolded me in his Love, for His perfect Love cast out all fears.

Turning points in our lives can lead us to do two things

  1. We can make the choice to allow what we are going through to dictate our behaviors in a negative way or
  2. We can allow the hurt and pain to mold us in who we are meant to be and allow our pain to give hope to others, tell your story for His glory.
God has helped me through many turning points in my life, whether it was walking away from a friendship not knowing why I had to but trusting Him because I had to, whether it was to stay in a relationship and allow Him full access to do what He knows is best. I don’t understand His ways I never will, what I do know is that “nothing I do or don’t do, will ever separate me from His love for me” (Romans 8:38-39)


My turning points have made me stronger and wiser and everyday I choose take the lessons from my mistakes and my relationships to shape me for a better tomorrow. I am no victim, I am victorious in Christ alone…

Thought for the day...

When someone shares something with you in confidence don't go jumping on their issues' band wagon, don't make their issue yours, respect their issue in the way it is presented to you don't go making up your own stories because in the end the person who shared with you has made peace with it and you who has now made it your issue is just showing that you are not that "mature" to deal with the information given, examine your own heart and deal with your issue accordingly. We are all different and we deal with things differently and work through things differently so let us respect the differences, doesn't make my way right and your way wrong. It is what it is

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...

No one is always busy...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...
