A New Family

In my quiet time yesterday I sat outside and started reminiscing about our journey as a family. There have been times when I thought about how much I missed out on when it comes to the true definition of family, and because of that I dealt with a lot of anger. In the last 2 1/2 years the CREATOR has had to heal me layer by layer regarding that subject, and HE did it in the most beautiful way.

While thinking I lost everything; the CREATOR showed me that first my thinking was incorrect. Then HE began to show me each individual in my own personal little family. As I watched them throughout our journeys I began to realize that I had what I longed for all along and it was right in front of my face. Yes we have many flaws, but the growth that has come to each of us and as a whole heals my soul even more. I may have been raised in a broken and jacked up family, but today I see how the CREATOR took that brokenness and gave me something new.

So my encouragement for you today is: no matter how jacked up things maybe in life; know that the CREATOR (if allowed by you) will take what's broken in your life and make it brand new for you just as HE did for me. He takes the ashes of your life and makes something beautiful from it. HE'S the best CREATOR!

Have a blessed day everyone!

THE CREATOR LOVES YOU!❤️

The Great Rescue

As I took time yesterday to think about today's encouragement; I just kept thinking about being rescued and realized how it was one of the most important rescues done in my life. Yes, of course the most important rescue is salvation so that you can spend eternity with HIM, but for me it's that and so much more. As I continue on each day of my journey; being rescued from that deep dark pit is pure joy because I never have to see that pit again. That rescue will always mean everything to me. That was definitely HIS action of love being shown.

Never again can that place hold onto me. Knowing the truth of my DNA has definitely changed everything in my life, but that change also brought freedom. Never being in the grip of control and lies for me is the greatest rescue in the world. You may be in a deep dark pit, but with one pull; the CREATOR can rescue you too. Your rescue will lead you to the greatest freedom of your life. Yes everyday I have things that I have to still work on, but it's now a work I enjoy.

So my encouragement for you today is: please take time to allow the CREATOR to heal your soul and give you the greatest rescue of your life. It will be bumpy, but it will be the best part of your journey. The truth is: you deserve it! Are you ready for your great rescue?

Have a blessed day everyone!

Forged To Be Closer

The other night we had one of our family talks which is something we try to do often. We were talking about our financial journey and our daughter looked at us and said how grateful she was for what we went through because as she watched it she learned a lot about how it's important to manage your money the right way and now she does just that.

Then my husband said something that really inspired this encouragement for me. He said you know the CREATOR not only taught us the financial side of it, but HE brought us closer than what we already were. Since that financial journey I have watched my family connect in ways that my husband and I never had growing up. We all have family issues, but the most amazing gift can come from life trials and that's love.

So my encouragement for you today is: no matter what the journey may bring to your life; know that being forged together with the ones you love will out way anything that comes your way. That forging will also teach you that no matter what: the CREATOR will always have you in the center of HIS hands too. So stop and look at your journeys and see what each one has taught you. There's always a lesson.

Have a blessed day!

THE CREATOR LOVES YOU!❤️
