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!

Smart, Saved, Sexy: Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

What exactly is being fearfully and wonderfully made? What was King David saying to the Lord at the time this prayer and praise was penned? 

Psalm 139:14New King James Version (NKJV)
14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.

I believe the King knew, despite his many flaws God made him GREAT! Yet, it doesn't stop with how God made the King but how HE created all of us!


I suggest finding the biblical definitions of fearfully and wonderfully to come to full conclusion what King David was trying to convey but here, for this text, I'll share my thoughts (and what I agree with):

In the original Hebrew text of the Bible, the word fearfully means: with great reverence, heart-felt interest and with respect. The word wonderfully means: unique, set apart, marvelous (darlingmagazine.org)

So what is your Fearfully and Wonderfully made story? Are you Naked, Unafraid and ready to tell it?

Telling your story is helpful to another and can provide you with release! God bless you!
