#GodsGirlsBrunch//001 – Bigger than me.

Wow, it’s literally been about 5 days since I hosted my first #GodsGirlsBrunch. Let me just say that this post is for me because I love to look back on what God did, but I do hope you truly see how great God is as you read this post.

As everyone socialized and exchanged contact information for the last 25 minutes of my event, Nissi (blogger and founder of podcast My Strength and My Shield) came up to me and asked me “Can I ask you something? Do you think this (this=speaking and throwing an event such as this) comes natural to you?

My short answer is No.

You see, it took me a while to get out my comfort zone. I started my YouTube Channel my senior year of high school and my blog my first year of college. I barely shared my content and was always fearful of what people thought of me.  No one except close friends at the time knew about my blog or YT channel. As time went by I actually had falling outs with people because of jealousy and envy of how driven and motivated I was. Therefore I started hiding who I was because simply it made people upset and uncomfortable. It was a constant prayer that I would not be moved by peoples opinions. I truly think that this year, I felt a HUGE supernatural shift.

I started sharing more of WHO I AM. Emari, a imperfect believer , a makeup lover who loves styles and to inspire people. At first, before being saved in 2014, my channel just consist of the things I loved- Fashion and Makeup. When I got saved, I was so on fire for the Lord and wanted to of course incorporate my faith. It was then that I realized that my purpose was bigger than me. It was so uncomfortable coming out to friends and family that I was now saved, but I did it anyway.

Three years later, God is still working on my behind through the process of sanctification. He continues to strip me down of layers and layers of myself and continues to show me that I NEED HIM to get anything done out here in these streets!

Back in November of 2017, God implanted this vision of #GodsGirlsBrunch. Women will get together monthly and be filled by the Word of God, cultivate relationships and encourage one another. I was scared to act out on it and prayed to make sure that this was a desire from Him because if it wasn’t I don’t want any parts lol! As months with by, God provided literally everything. An event planner, a photographer, down to the scriptures we actually studied.

All it took was a posture of obedience, trust in Him, and a receptive heart. You don’t have to be any perfect being to be used by God. I am a imperfect being, sister, friend, yet God still used me. If we ever wait until we are perfect, we will never feel freedom.

So, no this did not come natural, but God gave me such freedom and peace about this event. He allowed me to speak His TRUTH as the ladies and I discussed #ActiveFaith. I cannot give any praise to myself that I feel the freedom I feel, but it was a constant prayer that I will be released from people bondage. I pray that if this is your current situation, you continue to pray and watch what God will do. I will never feel comfortable speaking, but reliance on Him makes everything better.

Just remember these two things:

  1. You will never please everyone. You cannot be everything to everyone.
  2. Nobody ever changed the world by worrying about people’s opinions of them.

Thank you for everyone who came. I pray this event continues to happen as He leads me <3.

Love y’all!,

One word for how you’re feeling today. Get ready One word for how you’re feeling today. Get ready, go! All emotions accepted lol.

For me, I’m feeling... blah 😂. Not super duper amazing, but not horrible. Maybe I need a nap 💤  bc #napscureeverything .
Growth... Some notes from yesterday’s #SOULfle Growth... 

Some notes from yesterday’s #SOULflection ✨

One thing about growth is that it’s never linear. I have moments when I go two steps forward and one step back. When I feel stagnant, I like to self-reflect and invite God into that convo. 

- Am I being teachable?
- Am I open to wisdom?
- Am I hearing from God?
- Am I willing to do the work or am I being lazy?

All these things can stunt your growth- mentally, spiritually and physically. Cheers to doing the work and keeping God at the forefront. 

🤎 Happy Wednesday

🤎 to you on this Thursday.
#Soulflections is a series on my YouTube channel ( #Soulflections is a series on my YouTube channel (every Monday) to basically discuss topics deeper than face value. I share some of my journey and it creates dialogue on topics like faith, self love, development and growth. I’ve touched on topics such as combatting negative thoughts, codependency within relationships and I just posted 6 Lessons I’ve learned in 2020 (link in bio).
.
.
One lesson that I’ve learned in 2020 is that change is inevitable. Knowing that this pandemic came outta nowhere and my wedding wasn’t as planned, it helped me to utilize and practice my resilience muscle. It helped me to make lemonade out of lemons.

.
What’s one thing that you learned in 2020?
Happy New Year 🎉: I really don’t have many r Happy New Year 🎉:

I really don’t have many resolutions, but to continue growing and developing new habits that will serve me and others. 
.
.
I’ve  realized that there’s no difference between someone who “has more”. Just the habits in terms of time, money and choices is what makes a hell of a difference. So with God AND DISCIPLINE,
I know this year will be everything I need.
.

Looking forward to creating more, being intentional about the space I’m building and staying authentic to Me (me against me). Thank you all for supporting my platform and the encouragement you give me. It’s never goes unnoticed. ❤️

All Inclusive ✔️
Adults only ✔️
Food & Drinks on point ✔️
Amazing Staff✔️
Spacious & beautifully decorated rooms ✔️
Breath taking views ✔️

Covid safety precautions were also on point. Guest had to walk through sanitizer booths. Tables were cleaned before we sat down. Hand sanitizer was given to all guest at every restaurant entrance. They had scannable touch-less menus. Waiters wore a mask at all times. I also went in with my Lysol wipes to clean surfaces around the room. The hotel was not booked at full capacity so social distancing was easy. I felt safer there than in NY...honestly.

This was one of thee best resort experiences I’ve had. I definitely recommend booking a stay here.  Can’t wait to come back! I will miss being spoiled here by the staff...they really know how to make guest feel special.
