LET’S REFLECT

PRAYER: Lord give me the strength to tell my story. Continue to encourage me through my failures and mistakes. Guide my feet that I may be able to guide others to a much better place.

VERSE OF THE DAY: Proverbs 24:16

It has been over a year since I have blogged. Some of it was in the mist of going through a transitional phase in my life. I went through such a trying and difficult period and really did not have anyone to talk to. But, God always sends you a Jonathan, in who I am forever grateful for. In 2017, I found myself having been through five different jobs, barely making it over the poverty line, all while putting myself through grad school.

As I sit back and reflect, I am reminded of just how much I miss writing. Truth is I never stopped. I realize just how much I miss telling my story and blessing others with a word of encouragement. You know so often, we never know who’s lives we truly are impacting. We never know whose hearts we are making a difference in. We must never be afraid to tell our story or share our testimony.

As I write this blog, I stand with such humility. I am saying to you all that, I am back! After some major setbacks, rejections, and some pain, I am here. So glad that I made it. So many individuals did not have the same opportunity to make it through. I sit and I watch God’s hand upon my life. He truly does move! Will I always get it right? Absolutely Not! That is just it we were not put in this earth to get it all right. We were put in this earth to be in relationship with Him.

Anyone who has been in a true and real relationship knows and understands that we won’t always get it right but we are working through it on a daily and continuous basis. We will fall short and make many mistakes. Love is not about counting how many mistakes we make. Love is about getting back up again and seeing the one who said they would be there standing right by our sides. Love is what Christ did when He died on the cross for our sins. His love never fails and it never runs out on us. I am so glad and grateful for the gift of mercy and grace.

I hope that as we draw closer to one another you are inspired. I hope that you will be enriched, empowered, and enliven through all of this. I look forward to sharing more with you in the days to come. Meanwhile, keep your faith and don’t let anyone or anything stop you from being everything that God has called you to be.
