Building a New You

We get weak. We question ourselves, are we good enough, even with all of our faults and flaws? Am I worthy of being loved? How is it that people are looking at me? Can people feel my energy? Maybe other people are mind readers and know what I am thinking. The list can go on and on and one, but at some point, the downplaying of one’s being, the negativity, needs to stop.

At this point, take a moment to refocus, set your sights on Him. Just because we make a bad choice, had poor decision making skills at some point In our lives, doesn’t mean we are broken forever. Those things, which we see as our faults, thinking something is wrong with us, absolutely nothing is wrong for we have been created, beautifully flawed.

For through our storms in life, He is with us every step of the way. He knew there would be discomfort and pain. Everything we have been experiencing in life is bringing us in a closer relationship with Him. Helping us to trust, to lean on Him throughout life, to have faith and believe in good things which He is bringing to us in His own timing.

Better days are coming, I do trust and believe. Do keep in mind and remember to let Him take over and fight our battles, allow Him to guide us through all seasons in life. We are a work in progress. Life gets messy! Cleaning up the mess after each storm and season, takes time, patience, and gentleness of oneself. Healing and restoration of one’s body, mind and soul will happen over time (not overnight). He will reveal, the time, the place, letting you know when you have arrived.

Hello and welcome, I am so glad we have crossed paths! It’s no accident you are here! Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by, notice and read. As a wife, mother, grandmother, teacher (and so much more), I see the world through my lens. From the way I was raised, to every experience, moment, and circumstance in life, has shaped the way I think and see the world. For several years now, I have been walking more closely with God, getting to know Him, how He speaks to me and through me. He has given me the ability to write, a way to express how I am feeling and what I am going through. This has been a beautiful, crazy kind of journey where much healing is taking place. A time where I need to offer myself up some grace and appreciate the hard work, dedication, and commitment to creating a better version of myself. I am learning how to work through and release old trauma, healing, shedding old layers of myself, accepting and embracing my true and authentic self. Getting to know the new me has been quite foreign, especially when the old wants to cling to what is familiar, old habits and mindsets. Writing has been my saving grace (and photography is right up there too). An outlet, a way to release, a way to pause, reflect and see there is more than what my mind is leading me to believe. God’s word, His voice is there. When I keep Him first, above all things, I’ve realized things work out for my greater good, my higher purpose. I hope you enjoy and find words of wisdom you can relate to!
