It’s my birthday today! ✨⁣
⁣
I’m so thankful for another year of life. ⁣
⁣
Tomorrow is not promised and I am committed to using every day I have to love and serve God, love others, love my family and use the gifts God gave me. ❤️ ⁣
⁣
Thank you for being here and being a part of my community. You mean a lot to me and I hope you have a wonderful rest of the year! And I am SO glad we are sisters and brothers in Christ. ⁣
⁣
It took me time to grow into myself and feel confident as a woman of God. If you are going through a trial or something hard, God can use that circumstance for His glory and an even brighter future. I experienced it all and I came out stronger, and when I look back I see how God was working all along. ⁣
⁣
God’s ways are higher than our ways and He promises in the Bible, “God will do EXCEEDINGLY abundantly above and beyond, all that you can ask, think or imagine according to the power at work within us.” Ephesians 3:20. ⁣
⁣
If you are unsure of your future, trust in the goodness of God. I believe He has good things in store for you. He knows your desires and dreams. And when you place them in His hands, ALL things are possible for you. 🙌🏼⁣
⁣
I pray you have a great Thanksgiving tomorrow! I am thankful for you! ❤️

It is remarkable to love and to be loved by Jesus.

It is remarkable to love and to be loved by Jesus.

(Save me for later inspo!)

Every second, Jesus is extending his hand out to us and asks us to take it. The more I learn of Jesus, the more I realize how extraordinary it is to be loved by him.

The more time I spend in prayer, sharing my truth, hopes and worries with him, the more I become convinced that we were made by love for love.

In finding and building my relationship with God, my heart has experienced these blessings, to feel worthy, loved, known and forgiven. To see my self through the eyes of the Creator and to free myself of trying to up hold a false image to the world.

This message is on a T-Shirt I am selling in my shop. Link in bio to purchase it. You are so Worthy. Known. Loved. and Forgiven.

What are you holding onto, even loosely, that you need to place in the hands of God?

(SAVE ME & TAG A FRIEND)

Put your own views in the hands of Him, whose perspective is perfect and He will give you clarity. It can be very hard to put our fears, worries, the suffering of those we love, our future, our goals and our deepest desires into the hands of the Lord because we have been told time and time again not to trust anyone but ourselves and to soldier on and suffer alone.

When we come to Jesus, that suffering doesn't just go away, but we are not alone in our minds and hearts any more and that infact is a true miracle.

When we pray and we ask God and our community in Christ for guidance we are in a way giving our concerns into God's hands. Remembering that no today is God's yes tomorrow and his will for you is born of a love we cannot even fathom.

Put your worries in His hand today and tag a friend for encouragement 👇🧡

What God can do is beyond human comprehension.

(TAG a friend and bookmark me for later study!)

God is an impossibility specialist. What we call miracles are God's to do list! Isn't that exciting and uplifting to consider?

When you pray for God's purpose to be your life's purpose, when you pray for the happiness and health of others and the healing of the world through Jesus Christ, you are heard and the impossible begins to unfold as it is His will.

Have faith that God loves you He can undo, overdo, extra- do, and mega-do anything beyond human comprehension. He loves you more than you love yourself.

We must hold God’s hand as we walk with Him.

(Bookmark me and save me for later inspo)

No matter where you want to go, the answer does not change: the man or woman who walks with God always arrives at their destination.

If you walk with Jesus, you will always get to where you are supposed to go. Nothing in this world will help you fulfill God’s will for your life unless you walk with Him. God has designed our lives in such a way that the only way we will reach our true potential is if we do it with Him.

Only God knows our destination and how we are suppose to arrive at it. Allow Him to be the one who sets the course and leads the way.

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths" Proverbs 3:5-6,

God loves walking with us, he is a relational being and He wants to walk and talk with you, such is His great love for us. Ask today in your prayers for God to hold your hand and lead your way.

Please, acknowledge today that the Lord loves you more than you can possibly imagine!

Christ chose you, set you apart and called you as an individual.

(Save & Bookmark this reminder for later!)

Your inherent value and purpose has nothing to do with a guy. In fact, His blood on the cross deemed you worthy of eternal love and security before you were born—let alone before ever having the chance to enter a relationship.

God has a path that is tailored specifically to you—that is right for you. So just like your life has its own purpose, it also has its own timetable—and your timetable isn’t based on someone else’s. What God has planned for you is meant for you and it couldn’t be better.

Throughout the Bible, God promises to never leave

Throughout the Bible, God promises to never leave us nor forsake us.

(Save & Bookmark for later.)

God will be there for us through all of life’s troubles— (Joshua 1:9), He assures us He will hear our prayers (Isaiah 65:24), and promises to lead and guide us (Psalm 32:8, James 1:5) even through the desert seasons. These are promises we can stand on, promises which enable us to praise God no matter what it looks like.

Remembering what God has done in the past will encourage you to look to the future with hope over what He will do. Our great God and His character never change, so the trustworthy, faithful, miracle-working God of the Bible is the same God Who holds you in the palm of His hand today.

Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 12:9: "But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me."

Have you ever gone through a hard time that you didn’t understand only to see later God using it in a big way? I would love to hear your thoughts! Comment below 👇

When our heart is close to God we are always protected.

(SAVE me and TAG a friend)

Our hearts long to be with someone who will protect, love and cherish us for who we are. God already does this for us through His son Jesus with a love greater than we can even understand.

When we know our worth is in Jesus, we don't easily compromise. Because we know God has good things in store for us. A Godly man who understands the transformative love of the Lord will see your heart on fire for Him, and you will stand out for that. And if he doesn't, He's not the one God has for you!

She was blessed because she had faith in His Word.

She was blessed because she had faith in His Word.

(SAVE me for later inspo!)

Mary was blessed because she trusted God. She believed that what was spoken to her by the Lord would be fulfilled. ALL who trust the Word of the Lord are as just blessed, for the righteousness of Christ is for all who believe in Him.

Unwavering faith is the foundation of true contentment, joy and peace in your life.

It's not always easy to see the blessing during hardships. Or to see how God could possibly be using something for our good. But when we feel like that, turn to the Word of God because it is your source of safety and conviction.

The wonderful thing about Jesus is that we know when we pray it reaches God's ears. You can turn to Him and ask for your faith to be renewed and He will answer you, that in itself is a fulfillment of His promise to you.

Reminder: The words we speak matter. (SAVE

Reminder: The words we speak matter.

(SAVE me for a future reminder)

What you say can influence others profoundly.

It is important to stand up for what is right and to find the courage to share God's love with others and to be a disciple. But you don't always have to "vent" every emotion and feeling to the world. God can handle your feelings and it's important to share how you feel, but He wants you to practice discernment. This doesn't mean you can't share your feelings, you just need to do it wisely and to lead with love.

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs that it may benefit those who listen." -Ephesians 5:29

There are many verses in the Bible about watching our words. Proverbs 18:21 says "The tongue has the power of life and death." If you aren't sure about your words, just ask yourself is what I am saying beneficial to those who are listening? Am I lifting up someone or hurting them?

If you are unsure, it's better to pause and wait to speak. Look to God and he will guide you on how to find the words you need to share, and His spirit can help stop you before you may say something hurtful.

SAVE this post as a reminder!

I am so grateful to you, my sisters in Christ.

(Bookmark me for later)

The questions to ask yourself is, "How can I personally help my sister do well?" "How can I serve my sister so that she prospers in faith and life?"

Celebrate her wins, encourage her towards God's purpose for you, and before you know it you will have a community of sisters in Christ encouraging you to shine as God intended.

"Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing." (1 Thess. 5:11)

Love doesn't flatter, but it does encourage. Love points people to Jesus Christ. Build faith with one another, and share the good news of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. It's not just for the lost. It is for the found. For without it we drift back to false hopes, doubts, and fears.

Together we are stronger, and with Jesus we are strongest.

It was my husband Eric and I’s 9th wedding anniv

It was my husband Eric and I’s 9th wedding anniversary this week. It doesn’t seem like 9 years ago I was walking down the aisle getting ready to marry him. But time flies when you’re married to someone who is gentle, kind and loving! Over these past 9 years we’ve had 2 amazing kids, we’ve traveled many places with our family, achieved many of our goals and dreams by eachothers side, and grown closer to God together. ⁣
⁣
If you are single and waiting, keep praying but also be prepared for when you do potentially meet your spouse. Here are some tips to keep in mind that helped me. ⁣
1. Know who you are in Christ and don’t sacrifice yourself/morals/character to please a guy who tries to change you. The right man of God will recognize your worth and love you the way God made you. ⁣
2. Remove any previous emotional baggage if you can from the past, forgive and move on, and let it be in the past. A new relationship shouldn’t suffer the consequences of a previous one. If it was unhealthy, make amends with God, and vow to make it healthy going forward. ⁣
3. Make sure you are still interested in your own goals/dreams/activities and hobbies. Don’t quit everything you have and are just for a guy. When I met my husband, that’s when Project Inspired just started to blossom. In addition to being a wife, I worked on this page and had that goal to inspire young ladies. I didn’t let my relationship be the only thing I focused on. And now besides being a wife and mom, I’m also a movie producer and actress, I run this page and I’m working on other various goals like my clothing line available soon. ⁣
4. Don’t sit indoors all day not doing anything to meet the man of God. While I believe the man should pursue (there are exceptions of course!) you have to try and put yourself out there in the world in order for the right man of God to meet and find you. ⁣
5. Keep God first in your life! Once I placed my trust, hope and belief in Jesus Christ it was amazing because I met my husband only 3 months later. I’m not saying it happens right away, but God knows when you’re ready. ⁣
⁣
I would love to know- are you married, single, in a relationship or waiting for the one? ❤️

The depth of God's love is greater than we can eve

The depth of God's love is greater than we can ever understand.

(Save for later and tag a friend for encouragement)

Of all the things we can be justified in saying about God, perhaps the most wonderful truth of all is that He is love. Love doesn’t simply come from God. There has never been a time nor will there ever be a time where God is not love.

When you know the greatness of God’s love for you the response is worship: ‘I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever’ Psalm 86:12

Do you believe that God really loves you? God’s love will never let you down; he will never stop loving you. His love for you is greater than your failings and he wants you to receive his love by faith.

It is in this deep faith that you will see that there is nothing that life can deal you that will be greater than God's love. In your deepest pit, He is there and His love will help you overcome.

Can you view your self-worth through the eyes of G

Can you view your self-worth through the eyes of God?

(Bookmark me for later)

Whatever positive characteristics you think you are lacking, God is. Whatever you need, God is. It is He who fills in our gaps.

We live in a world where we are encouraged to be, say and do the next big thing. We live in a world where we are encouraged to compare ourselves to other people's outside selves. We live in a world where our insecurities mean business for many consumer items.

So as Christians, we are so lucky to have a source of true and infinite worth. In God you are always enough because you were made in the image of God and carry His likeness and His purpose in you. God wants you just as you are!

"For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." - Ephesians 2:10

God created you to be unique. Be guided by Him towards a greater purpose & lead with love, for yourself and others for you are enough.
