Have you ever wondered...

Have you ever wondered how you’ve gotten where you are?

Why you had to struggle to get where you are?

Lessons often teach us many things.  Someone once told me when the Master is quiet He’s hard at work.  Many times I wondered what I was supposed to be, what I was to do with my life, how to be a better person for those around me, what my purpose was, amongst many other questions.

I prayed a lot asking Jesus to guide my steps and listening to His still soft voice. Many times I was acting on my own thoughts and what I wanted.  Sometimes what we want and what He wants are two very different things. Though we learn lessons from the choices we make.  I’ve learned many.  Some have strengthened me while others broke me.  Sometimes you have to be broken to grow.  A butterfly doesn’t just appear...it has a process.  We all do.

I prayed that there would be something to help me overcome obstacles that have been there majority of my life; self confidence, selfishness, manipulative, competing for the best, insecure and just struggles to stay positive.

I’m no longer bound by those chains.  This two year journey has taught me so much and I know I’m not done yet.  

My desire is to help others regain freedom not only physically but mentally, emotionally and even financially.

What chains bog you down?

Don’t...

Don’t be held captive by your thoughts... #motivationalmonday This hit me like a brick.  For so long I let myself be a prisoner by my thoughts, how I felt when I looked in the mirror, insecurities, lack of self confidence and now I feel like a whole new person!  I’m thankful that Jesus helped me through some of my darkest storms. Even when I feel alone, I know He is right beside me.

How important is breakfast...

Eight Reasons to Start Your Day With a Protein-Dense Shake.....  Your mom always told you that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Of course, mom’s always right. But does the science back her recommendation up? From an array of studies, scientists have demonstrated the efficacy of breakfast for a variety of health benefits.
