Loving Me

Every day there is a teaching moment about ourselves. In that moment we can discover great truths; are you ready for a truth I learned about myself?

I pray you are because it's deep.

I think about the possibility of my future king everyday, but in those thoughts, I have a challenge with whom I am; at least I did before this weekend. I woke up Friday morning saying LORD, I want to fall in love with me all over again.

It started with these great pictures I took of myself where I said YES, I'M HOT. Then, I went too far. I felt as if I was lusting after my own beauty. Through the night, the Lord chastise me and put me on track. I had to repent after whooping. I had to fast. I had to pray.

"Loving me was not a bad thing; lusting after me was." 

There are things we do in our lives that will cause us to sin. In that sin, we could lose connection with our ALMIGHTY FATHER. I am thankful Jesus thought so much of me to come and say, GET RIGHT GIRL, repent now. If He hadn't come, I would be lost. Lost as I go into 2018 working from 2017 instructions.

It's okay to love you.
It's okay to say hey I LOOK GOOD.
It's not okay to lose sight of whom God is in our lives.
It's not okay to sin.

I fell in love with me again. I also fell in love with my spiritual assignment AGAIN.

Recognize whom God made you to be; it starts with self!

God bless you!

This is what we're doing at B.A.D Queens of the Round-Table; we are taking action and putting work in to change the mindsets of the women around the world. We are determined to build B.A.D. Queens by helping them see the inside of their lives compared to the outside the world seems to complain about.

The point in the initiative is to establish an ongoing community of encouraging women at a level that isn't as HIGH UP, yes HIGH UP, as the B.A.D. QUEENS of the Round-Table. The Queens at the table are already in the mindset of I have to keep going, I have to do what God says, there isn't anything I can't do and I'm doing it with the help of the other queens.

So how smart, sexy and saved are you to move into this part of the Royal Dining room? How smart, sexy and saved are you to know that no matter your body type, or size, you are the epitome of that next level woman?

There are two levels to the initiative that we want you to consider:

OR

2. Donation of any amount OVER $15 includes the Smart, Sexy, & Save T-shirt, teleconference, Triple S. Report and name included on the B.A.D Queens site as a supporter.

Ways to be B.A.D # 11: Realize Your Worth

God said we are fearfully and wonderfully made. If that is so, we are worth more than we THINK WE ARE. As a matter of fact the word also says that we are WORTH MORE THAN RUBIES.




There is nothing wrong with knowing that you are valuable. How will you walk out how valuable you are? Are you ready to accept your worth?

Ladies, we have to be refined and smoothed out, but that doesn't change that you are expensive. You are so expensive, no one can afford you, but God will send someone to honor you, to respect you, and to value you. You are not just a diamond in the rough, you are a ruby. You are blessed anointed and destined. When you figure out your worth, you can walk in your BAD-NESS!

Featured Business Woman: Tina Hines: A True Sister Friend

E.S.S.E.N.C.E. of A Woman is getting back to its roots by featuring awesome business women! Today we are featuring Tina Hines. She is a great woman with strength and a heart for others. Get to know and at the end, when you see her web page and bio, go to her site and show some LOVE!!

What is the name of your business? Tina C. Hines, Life Transformation Specialist and For My Sister Friends

How long have you been in business? Unofficially, I started fellowshipping with women in my home in 2008. Then I officially began both in late 2011.

What were your struggles in starting? There were a few struggles but one of the more simple ones was identifying a logo. The logo had to symbolize a transformation and I had seen several organizations use a butterfly. However, I wanted something different that captured the essence of a woman. A friend told me to research the dragonfly and when I saw the definition(The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world symbolizes change and change in the perspective of self-realization; and the kind of change that has its source in mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life) I knew the dragonfly had to be incorporated into my logo. Hence the silhouette of the body of the dragonfly is a woman with wings. 

What have been your triumphs? By taking a leap of faith to start a business, there were no doubt that I would experience one or two triumphs. However, I did not know when they would occur. To my amazement, the business has been well received by many women who were able to identify with my mission. One of my first triumphs was being invited to speak during a Women’s Empowerment Brunch. To look at the faces of the women in the audience with tears in their eyes (as I shared my message of Remembering Me) brought joy to my heart. It was at that moment that I was absolutely positive that assisting women was the purpose that was handed to me. I’ve been blessed with a gift and it was given to me so I could share it with others who are receptive.

What was your small business why? Running a business was never in the forefront of my mind until one of my previous managers suggested open a temp agency to groom administrative professionals. For some reason I always felt my calling was for something deeper (but I did not know what the deeper was back in 1990). As I fast forward to 2011, my boss was right when he used the word ‘groom’. In essence I am grooming women but it is not just in their careers. This grooming is in their health, their relationships and other areas that they find challenging. Although I have to make a living, when I started this journey I knew it was not about the amount money I would make. It was about the number of women I would be able to assist. But as I have always said, whether it is 5 or 5,000 women, I am on a mission and I will continue because this is my purpose.
