KEEP PUSHING

April 13, 2014

Months ago my pastor said, “2014 will not be about whether or not God blessesd us, it will be about what you have to go through to get to that blessing.” This has proved true in my life so many times just 4 months into This year. However,  each time I replay what Pastor Drake said in my head and place it on my heart.

Yesterday it happened again, I felt fine until I got half was to Atlanta,  then all of a sudden, I was sick. I had to stop and throw up and everything.  I thought about going back home but I had  commitments to fulfill.  So, I put Pastor Drake on replay. Made it into town went to my meeting. After the meeting I felt even worse. I begin to think; maybe I should cancel practice and go home. Once again, I heard Pastor Drake. Even now as I type This, I am still feeling bad, but I am pressing on to my blessings.

I know that the devil will use whatever and who ever he can to keep you from what God has for you. When you mind is strong, he will attack your body. When your body is too strong he will attack your mind and he never shy away from the opportunity to use your fellow man. Our smallest issues become our greatest all because  we allow the enemy to effect How we see the picture that God has painted. So many times we Mister out on our possibilitied because we are afraid to press our way through hard times.

Through the process of Me planning for my upcoming event, God has shown Me so many things and so many people; so in a positive way and some not so positive. I know that This is my time and that he is in the midst of all that I am doing and because of that the
devil is even more persistent. 

I shared that to say, don’t allow a pebble to keep you from reaching the mountain top. You have to stay encouraged and be willing to be radical for Christ in order to receive his blessings.

This is not a post about fashion. This is a friendly reminder that the way you style your life determines how successful you are and the influence you offer the world. How you style your life connects you to your purpose and living your purpose draws you closer to God. Your style can’t be mimicked or  matched; it is a muscle only you can flex.

This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly th This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly the way I felt when I found out I was pregnant with my son. I remember the day I planned to abort him. I damn near remember every moment that I have shared with him over the last 23 years and every moment I had with God on his behalf. As we prepare for yet another amazing moment, I am grateful. 

Grateful that God loved me enough to bless me with this joyful black boy. Grateful that he was patient as I grew from girl to woman while being his mother. Grateful that he inspired me to push past every roadblock placed in my path. 

@youknowitszaydoe, I am so proud of you and I love you far beyond any words, actions, or material items, black man. I once called you sun because you shined like one but truthfully you out shine the sun, son. i pray that you receive and cherish every good and perfect thing God has for you. I pray you continue to pursue your purpose with passion. Most of all I pray that and abundance of love and light surround you and that despite life challenges you never cower in the face of adversity.
