Even When You Don't Know

As I was thinking about today's encouragement I began to think about the journey I walked almost 3 years ago. As my identity journey began I can remember the very moments of not even knowing how to think straight, or even knowing how to breathe. In one second my life changed forever, and that's a feeling you never forget.

I do remember that moment when I literally felt the CREATOR hug my heart, because as I sat outside staring at a pond I remember saying to HIM " I don't even know how to feel Father; I'm just so numb!" There was a lot back then I didn't know, and there is still a lot today that I don't know, but what I do know is that no matter what: the CREATOR will love you through it all. Today we deal with the growing up of our children and I can definitely say there is a whole lot that I don't know, but the effort is made each and every day for it to be better for them than it was for us. That is a different journey too. Lol

So my encouragement for you today is: with every day you walk this journey called life and you are faced with many moments of not even knowing the how's, the why's or anything else; please allow yourself to lean in and allow the CREATOR to just love on you and walk with you. It's the only way to get through each day. Never forget that you always have someone praying for you everyday.

Have a blessed day everyone!

There's Joy From It

As I asked the CREATOR for today's encouragement for you this is what HE spoke to my heart about. So I would definitely like to share with you that joy. I sat down yesterday and began to go through my pictures on my phone all the way back to 2010 and as I looked I saw joy.

Yes there were pictures that reminded me of painful times but overall the majority of those pictures spoke volumes of joyful and happy times. We've all had journeys to go through and we can choose to either be a victim and play that victim role for as long as need be, or we can choose to walk in the victory that comes after each battle. Sitting back and looking at all of those pictures the CREATOR helped me see that out of all that pain there was joy even through it.

So my encouragement for you today is: when the moment comes and you can sit and look at some of your pictures; please allow the CREATOR to show you your joyful moments even through the journeys you have had to walk. I promise, you will see that there is joy in every part.

Have a blessed day everyone!

Walls Of Protection

So today I would like to share with you about our family conversation last night concerning this title. Like most people we have built walls all around us for the main reason of not allowing anyone else to hurt our hearts. Most people do it but don't even realize that's what they are really doing.

As we talked with our daughter concerning a specific issue it just continued to make sense that her heart is still troubled by a situation. The troubling part for us as her parents is watching her do the same thing we have done. We taught her to build walls. Now, that can be a very good thing at times because it's important to protect your heart, but it can also be a not so good thing because we build that wall so tall that we even keep the good away as well. I have been very guilty of that. I am now learning to change that; not only for my heart but to teach my children how to change that for their hearts as well.

So my encouragement for you today is: throughout every situation you have been through and every layer of your wall of protection that has been built; please allow yourself to take a brick from that wall down each day, because when we keep certain people away we also keep the CREATOR away, and with this journey of life HE is who we need the most.

Have a blessed day everyone!

THE CREATOR LOVES YOU!❤️
