#PURPOSE-Is There An Opportunity Shortage?

purpose-quotes-7.jpg

The underlying root to everything that we do have to do with faith and trust. This is true whether you’re a believer in Christ or not.

For every dream and passion we have, we hope to reach our personal success point. Whether it’s pointing individuals to the cross, an artist who wants to be great in all forms of art or even being a teacher who wants to succeed in increasing a child’s education, we have trust and faith.

Trust in faith in what though?

Back when I started my blog in 2009, I used to be a big advocate for self help books. We live in a society that truly emphasizes self. Love yourself, trust yourself, help yourself and protect yourself. You hear it all the time! When I first started my blog, this stuck with me. I was truly about self. So much about me, my goals and I that I said later to even lending a helping hand to some individuals! Crazy, right?

Not only did I decide to write about this because what I learned by being this way, but because I saw a disturbing YouTube video earlier this month. I watched an individual rant for about 20 minutes about a friend “stealing her dream and purpose”. I thought to myself “Is this a such thing?”. Can individuals share same gift and be used in different ways? Absolutely!

When we have so much trust and love in only self, this leaves room for fear. Fear that there will be no opportunities left if we help someone else out. Fear that someone will become more successful than us. A lot of fear overtakes you. The great cause of that is too much trust and love for self.

Looking back now and seeing who I am becoming with Christ in me,when it comes to my dreams and walking in Gods will I realize that only having trust in me isn’t going to work. I need someone greater in me. I need God. I know that when I am walking in Gods will for my life, nothing can take what God has for me. You lose that great sense of fear!

In conclusion:

There is no shortage of opportunities. Let’s stop acting like the opportunity river will run dry. We can all be something. Let’s serve one another! If we don’t I guarantee that we’ll meet all the people we’ve discouraged on the way DOWN as they’re on their way UP!  Let’s keep God as the center of everything we do and trust his agenda, not our own. Be encouraged to encourage!

I would like to add that I wouldn’t be able to post this if it wasn’t for the inexpensive internet connection that I’m using and I wan’t to recommend to you.

Date Night! 🥂 🤎🌹 In a marriage, date nig Date Night! 🥂 🤎🌹

In a marriage, date nights are a necessity. It doesn’t have to be grand either. I definitely is a form of non-physical intimacy. Hubby and I do this twice a month at least. Here’s where we we went:

@tatianabychefkwame - y’all, I was so happy and grateful that hubby and I ate here. I was so afraid that we wouldn’t get a seat because they are booked out and we were running late. I was two seconds from saying forget it, but Jose said “nope, we’re trying. I prayed.” We got a seat and everything was a 10/10 from the service to the music and the food. I want to book a reservation ASAP.

@citywinerynyc - I’m a sucker for live music and a concert. That’s how we bonded in our beginning stages. I heard @officialjonb was performing, so I had to go. I love me some 90’s R&B y’all!

We had a blast! This night just went so smoothly. If you’re in a relationship/married, how often do you date each other?

For the glam days, when I need my makeup to stay o For the glam days, when I need my makeup to stay on this doesn’t disappoint! Loving the @onesize On ‘Til Dawn Setting spray! Here’s what I love:

💫 It’s mattifying without being drying. Who likes thief face to feel super thick? I know I don’t.
💫 It’s long lasting. It keep your makeup in place for a long time. When you first apply, it it amazing at being transfer proof.
💫 It goes on super light and doesn’t ruin product placement. I love that!

Run, don’t walk!

French, but let’s make it abstract.
First, if you know me you know I love Jhene. W.A.Y First, if you know me you know I love Jhene. W.A.Y.S is my song!!!

If I would say I never think about giving up I’d be lying 😂. Life be life’ing. Thankfully, every morning you have a chance to restart and to commit to the habits that will propel you forward. 

Here are somethings that keep me grounded:

-A routine- I like structure and routine. It’s funny because my husband is the total opposite 😂. God knows I needed someone that is more spontaneous. It’s needed. A routine, but flexibility is always needed.
-My Faith- my life is a whole testimony and as long as I have breath I know it’s because of God. 
-My Skincare- Your canvas is so important, so make sure you prioritize making sure your skin is taken care of. We love a beat face over here though. 
-Feeding my Mind- Reading has been big for me this year and I’ll some books have really been transformative. I’ll share more about my recommendations in another reel.
-My Health- Health is wealth. So make sure to take gave a good balance. Prioritize it.
P.S

I’m changing my content. I’m not a celebrity, nor do I desire fame. I’m a normal person. Everything isn’t perfect, grand or spectacular. I’m okay with that too.
