“The things they DON’T tell you” -Diary entry No.3

Sunday Reflection: Diary entry No.3

There are so many things that are not discussed when we talk about embracing our “soft-girl era”… the meat to this immaculate dish, just so happens to be change. I’m not talking about changing your wardrobe, nah— I’m talking about physically and mentally.

Everyone shows the AFTER effects, the aesthetic, Starbucks/Target runs. Rarely do we discuss the mental and spiritual shift that takes place during the process, and most of the time you don’t see it coming… it just smashes into you like a speeding train.

And suddenly your eating habits change, your fitness goals change, your dreams become more vivid, and your ears processes the voice of God as if it were roaring thunder…

Everything changes, and the beauty of it is everyone’s journey is different. I just so happen to process these things simultaneously! I woke up one day and my appetite for something new was raging.

My burning desires sprouted so swiftly they could no longer be contained by fear, anxiety, uncertainties, failure. I had no choice but to take a step back, and allow my hands to be opened 🤲🏾 making room in my mind, body, and soul for My Lord and savior pour into me! Till this day, my cup continues to over flow with His grace.

And before I knew it I looked up and my mind was renewed, my hard work bore fruit, and it were as if suddenly my discipline… in every facet of my life had been unbreakable.

I felt as if it were “too good to be true”, that things were going “too smoothly”, the expectation of something bad happening was looming over my subconscious like a dark cloud, because how did I reach the place where “life is good”, and I seeming have everything figured out!

The truth is pookie, I don’t have everything figured out, I’m just trusting in God, and my given abilities. See, what I have figured out on this journey, is that even though I may not have everything figured out…

I’m 100% certain that the moment I let go, and stopped trying to control things are not tangible is when everything began to fall into place!

Just remember, we can only control our Actions & Reactions, anything that you cannot physically see, touch, hear,smell. Will be fairly difficult to control.

Allow YOUR God to be your intercessor, and simply prepare for what is to happen next. 🤲🏾🫶🏾💞
