PROJECT 31

The Proverbs 31 woman isn’t sitting back idle, living her slow-living life. She’s active. She’s wise. She’s intentional with her time and money in both earning and spending. Which also means that she became a student first.

1Blessed is the manawho walks not in the counsel of the wicked,nor stands in the way of sinners,nor sits in the seat of scoffers;2but his delight is in the lawb of the LORD,and on his law he meditates day and night.

3He is like a treeplanted by streams of waterthat yields its fruit in its season,and its leaf does not wither.In all that he does, he prospers.

Psalm 1:1-3

So what are you pursuing right now? Whatever it is, let’s chat about it.

This topic can be so hard to talk about depending on your world view, what you believe about beauty, how you’ve been shaped by it in your life and especially how you’ve been hurt by it. The standards by the world are pretty high and a bit excessive and honestly will always leave you empty, even if you achieve the standard you thought you needed to get to. There are extremes both ways. Both can become idolatry. To boycott “beauty” is not the answer. To subject yourself to the world’s opinions of “beauty” is also not the answer. So let’s chat…

This is possibly opening up a can of worms but I fully believe that true Christians should be the poster child and living example of self control and discipline. (And all the other things listed as the EVIDENCE and PROOF that the Holy Spirit lives in us.)

Romans 8:11 says, “If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.”

Galatians 5:22-23 says, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.”

What are your thoughts?

Ok, happy Friday! I’m off for a Sabbath rest as soon as as this sends!

Love you, byeeee

I’m contemplating going gray. This had been a long thought out process for me. I’ve been watching YouTube videos, looking up scripture verses on it and really processing out whether I’m ready or not to fully embrace my natural hair. I’ve been dying my hair since I was 14. This would be a big commitment, especially now that my job is selling hair products. So much to say. Let’s chat…

“Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life.” Proverbs 16:31

I’ve been in a wild season the last few months, even the last few years, if I’m being super honest. How do you seek the first the kingdom of God while also being in the marketplace selling online. How do you not let it consume your time and thoughts? Social selling takes up so much rental space in my brain. Working with women in this space for a decade now, I know I’m not the only one who feels the overwhelm and mind battle it can become. We can easily get confused on our own identity in the social media space. It’s crazy how much impact it has on our thoughts and internal peace, or lack of peace.

So how do we show up like the Proverbs 31 woman in faithfulness and strong work ethic without burning ourselves out in hustle, comparison and overwhelm?

Today I’m sharing the things I’m learning as I’m in the fire. Good news is that Jesus comes into the fire and lets us exit without the flame even touching us (read the story of Shad, Rad and Benny in the book of Daniel chapter 3).

I hope this episode brings you encouragement on your journey as well.

Think of me as your online bestie leaving you voice memos about life. Whether I’m on a walk or sitting in bed next to a sleeping baby, here is where I’ll share with you thoughts that come to mind as the Lord is teaching me as well as a lifetime of stories to tell of the faithfulness of God. You might hear children in the background or birds singing as I walk. It’ll be real life and real stories, uncut and delivered to you.

I want this to feel like a personal voice message to you with the framework of us becoming the Proverbs 31 woman in our relationship with God, with our husbands, in motherhood, in our homes and even in the marketplace.

Together we are PROJECT 31.

If this sounds like something you and your bestie, sister, mother would also enjoy, I would love for you to like it, subscribe and share it with others. It makes such a difference.

Ok, friend… let’s keep the conversations going. If you have questions or anything specific you want as an episode topic, I would LOVE so much to hear from you!

Thanks for being here!
