Are your roots strong even in God to withstand the storms of life? When are roots are strong, we WILL NOT fall over during life's toughest circumstances! 

Have you allowed God to come in and "change" the filter of your heart from old and dirty to new and clean?

When we allow God to be our direct source, we will surely blossom into the beautiful creation He has called us to be. 

Let's be real; trusting God is hard sometimes, especially in a season of waiting. I recently had an experience where I had no choice but to trust God even when it was hard, and he showed up in so many ways, even in my doubting. 

I used to try to adjust who I was to fit in and please everyone. How would we accomplish anything if we were all created with the same gifts and personalities? Join me in learning to be okay with who you were created to be and accept that you are not for everyone, and that is OKAY. 

Did you know that a piece of sand must enter the oyster through a pierced part of the shell for a pearl to form? This is how God uses us. Even with the smallest obstacles in life, God will use them to make pearls. 

Do you ever fear the uncertainty of a situation or circumstance? The unknown can be scary. Learn how to navigate the unknown better and control your fear. 

Do you find yourself giving up or letting go before you have allowed God to finish what he started? Allow God to finish what he has started and don't give up before God can step in.

Do you feel like you are being controlled by anger? Maybe it's anger from your past or anger from your present. When we hold on to anger, we essentially let it control us. Remember, he who angers you, controls you. Join me in kicking anger out the door!
