The question isn’t
will you ever enter a wilderness.
The question is:
How will you navigate your time IN the wilderness?
“You can become bitter or better in your most painful seasons of life.
You can become pitiful or powerful out of your most painful seasons of life.
You can waste your time and lengthen your wilderness
Or you can cultivate that time, learn things that you would have never learned otherwise."
- Russ Moore
Expedite your time in the wilderness and move on.
The children of Israel: God chose to lead them around the long way.
We think God is trying to PUNISH us
When really He is trying to PREPARE us.
Are you sabotaging your future and wasting your years in the desert,
perpetuating your time from the promised land.
Jesus left his time in the wilderness, FULL!
You can actually go through a time in the wilderness and come out on the other side STRONGER!!
Handle your wilderness well, because there is HOPE available for you.
In the midst of pain, can you DARE TO HOPE?
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases. Lamentations 3
Hope isn’t a discovery, it’s a decision. Soul, rise. Up!
There is a power in realizing that we always have a choose
Our spirit, to speak to it and claim: I’m going to rise up!
PRAY:
“God, I You are my ultimate promised land while I trust You to bring me out of this season
I believe for it. The ultimate promised land is GOD IS MY PORTION.”
We are rooting you on!!

A special episode, brought to you from the depths of my personal testimony....
TURNING TEARS INTO POWER
This is one episode that you don't want to miss. If you only listen to one on my podcast, THIS IS THE ONE!
Jesus has brought me from despair to hope, to life, to victory...from hiding from my day, to jumping out of bed to race into the song of love I sing because Jesus has shown me that HE IS BIGGER than all that I know and have faced in my life.
Get up, woman! There is a day where He will wipe every tear from your face, but today is the one where only YOU can turn this moment from tears to power.

Are you feeling stuck, sad, depressed,
Why should I know about the Favor of God?
Why do I need it?
Have you ever wanted a change in your life, but you didn't know how to get there? How do I become more, make my life better? How do I stop pushing through and get relief from sadness, depression, loss? How do I get real blessing, favor, and happiness?
Finding and standing in the Favor of God is: being in the Word, being in His presence, and allowing yourself to be available for Jesus to come live with you, as you abide in Him. If doors aren't opening up for you, you feel aimless, and are feeling all the NOs of life, like life is closing you up, find Jesus' presence.
The favor of God fulfills you, remains with you, gives you real and lasting purpose. It goes to fight FOR you in your darkest hour. It's your weapon of victory.
Stop attempting to "put on", "adding" THIINGS in your life in your failed attempt to get happiness and success.
If you want more peace, take off striving. If you want joy in your home, answered prayers, lasting fulfillment, then the favor of God is available for you. Come into His presence and drop off everything that isn't born from being in God's presence.

When you say "YES, LORD" what happens next?
A lot of growth, trust, surrender, and definitely blessing that is pressed down and overflowing.
Tune in to this episode I didn't even plan on recording. I just turned on the mic for a 'test test' and this beautiful episode poured out from me.
It's all about standing in the Victory that He has prepared for you. When you are surrendered and submitted to the will of God, you know your purpose and you find the power to stand in it.

NO is good! There is power and freedom in your NO.
No releases more HARNESSED POWER.
A harnessed power is focused, bridled, and guided for more power to flow in it.
No brings you closer to your centered energy, so that you aren’t do all the things, all the time.
What will saying “NO” empower your life with?
5 Reasons for saying NO: Say NO for a Better YES!
Write down:
“if I don’t say no...
1) other ppl’s priorities will take precedence over mine
2) I’m spending time with mere acquaintances which can crowd out family or close friends time
3) I will not have the time I need for rest and recovery
4) I will end up frustrated
5) I won’t be able to say yes to the important things
So, here’s your REFRAME today:
Every time we say no to something that is not important or aligned with our vision we are saying YES to something that is: our work, our relationships, our resources, our energy, our living aura.

When we pause to focus on what we are giving away, speaking into, or allowing to be in our lives, we can be aware of our inner energy.
Our inner energy is multi-faceted: it holds our destiny, our personal calling, our significant identity, our purpose. The aura of energy that protects your vitals: your heart, your belief system, your blessings MUST be carefully guarded.
Being a watchman of your own life…
This is…being a Guardian of your living Aura!
The space where hope is found lives inside this area that is protected and guarded by you. If you allow just anybody to say their opinion about your life and it affect you negatively, are you guarding your aura?
GUARD: daily habits, the places we go, the company we keep, the people who influence us, the people we allow to speak their mind, the memories we bring up, the stories we tell, the conversations we keep, the thoughts we have, the heart beliefs we store.
When we have the rewards, the fruit & blessings we prayed for actually come to us, the joy, the healing, the new job, the spouse, the restoration, whatever it is you have:
It’s your treasure. Guard it with all your might!

You are the master gardener of your living aura, your atmosphere of where your heart lives, what it creates, how expanded it is. Allow this garden to both inspire you to create more, and be all of you, allowing it to birth new beauty inside of you. Because, when we plant seeds of hope, we are investing into our harvest.
If we plant seeds for a magnolia, we cannot expect it to develop into a hibiscus. The same goes for our lives. If we are planting our garden, our aura, our life, are we being a gardener who deliberately plants magnolias to get hibiscus, this means if we are hosting an environment of doubt, how can we expect to bear the fruit of doubtLESS. In your garden, where are you planting and watering what does belong, and uprooting what does not belong?
What appears to be devastating, or too difficult, could actually be the one place you were meant to stand, completely surrendered to the call of crafting your garden.
Go be a living aura today by taking time to be in the center of yourself, breathing in beauty, new creativity, and watering only what serves as the highest form of you.

Laura Carter speaks all about knowing how to PIVOT how we show up online this year as opposed to the past, learning how to write a vision, stick to that vision for our business and drop off these mentalities: “Just gotta make it”, “this isn’t my year”, “it’s not in the budget”.
Learn how to write out the 3 components for your business vision:
Impact, My Why, Resource Up
Don’t sell yourself short, put what you really want. Dream big! If you don’t, you might meet your goals on that vision in a month or a year, and then become weary in momentum.
Trust the Process. Trust Yourself. Trust God.
When we have a CREED that we stick to, then doubt and fear and idleness can’t stick around.
If we allow our circumstances to DICTATE our success, what if those circumstances are dire? What then? You’re just going to roll over?
Instead, take the good, the bad, the ugly, and your beautiful soul; put it all together, shift, pivot, get resourceful; do WHATEVER it takes to CRAFT a new way of showing up.
Mantra for 2021 is this:
"I AM showing up in a new way, in my new self, with my empowering vision to accept change, use creativity to pivot, resourcefulness and resources of all ages, and make choices that align with my vision, saying no to the old way of business, to be open to new ideas that speak to my audience for their benefit. I’m saying YES to abundance, YES to investing, YES to trusting and including, YES to pivoting."
