Many times, we talk ourselves out of doing what we want and need to do rather than talking ourselves into doing those things we need to do. When you have a decision to make, pray about it and seek honest counsel to help guide you towards making the decision. Once a decision is made, make the commitment to stay the course no matter what. 

The day you realize how beautiful it is to be who God created you to be is the day you are truly free-free to be you, the person God created you to be.

How are you dealing with the pandemic? If you live in the USA, this has been our lives for the past five months. As short as that sounds, it feels much longer. I want to encourage you today to look into where you are right now and resolve to push through. 

How long has it been? Is the stress of isolation and not having answers getting to you? I can relate. Lately I have been feeling the stress of not deeply connecting with others and being able to go out like I usually do. I hope this episode brings you some comfort as you listen to another who can relate.  

When what you expected and what you are seeing don't align with each other, what do you do? I would like to encourage to run to God and dive deeper into His word. His love will get you through anything and His grace is sufficient for all things.

You have been given the freedom to be yourself, to owe no man or woman anything except genuine love. Many times we fall into debt, social media and face to face comparison that steal that freedom right from under us. Let's vow to live our real lives free from debt and comparison.

How do you know if you are in solitude or lonely? Listen to this podcast to find out the key difference between solitude and loneliness. 

Really, who are you? Do you know? When we don't know who we are, we leave it to the world to tell us who we are, and that is a very dangerous thing. My encouragement to you today is to find answers to that question for yourself. You are the only one who can find out who you are. When you do, accept it, love it.

What is something that you know is getting in the way of you becoming the best version of yourself? We all have things in our past that contributed to who we are or are not in our present.  I encourage you to look into yourself to find the things that you need to get over in order to continue moving forward in the journey of becoming your best self, who you were created to be. 

Change is always happening, either through us or with us. If we are careful, we can happen with the change and see all the blessings and positivity that came with the change. How has your life change since this pandemic interrupted our lives? What did you learn about yourself?
