I Almost Gave Up
Hey Reader,
Can I tell you something? As I write this email I am feeling a lot of real and raw emotions. I am stepping into unknown and uncomfortable territory in many areas of my life and...
I want to stall
I want to stop
I want to go back to my comfort zone
I want to sit in the background and cheer other people on
I want to be given the easier path to the BIG vision (I mean, I know a little hard is required)
But I have learned that I can not want all those things and the will of God too. I have to choose what I want most. The moment I say, "Yes" to any of the items above, I am saying, "No" to the plan of God for this season of my life, because they require my full participation.
Mark Batterson said it best, "Inaction is action.” Each of the thoughts I shared indicated that fear was camouflaging itself in my life. But Fear is a Liar!
I know I am not alone in feeling this way and I want you to know that you are not alone either.
If you are on my email list, it's probably because you have found yourself needing to take action in an area of life. The truth is that making the decision to take action does not eliminate the uncomfortable circumstances that may surround the action.
The enemy will present us with situations and emotions that have proven to be successful tools in keeping us in a state of inaction, wrong action, or complacency. But this is not God's plan for us, the devil IS a LIAR. I declare that you will fulfill the purpose and the assignment God has given you with NO MORE DELAY in Jesus name. As John tells us,
"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." John 4:4
Reader, I pray that Today marks the day Fear Becomes A Liar in your life and you take the next step of obedience for the assignment on your life. I am with you my sister, let's let fear know how BIG our God is!
Blessings,
P.s. Thanks for letting me get real and raw today. On another note, I will be sharing something with you on Monday that the text community already knows all about. If you want to find out before Monday, TEXT ME. My hope is that as you read Monday's email, you will make fear and uncertainty bow to the mighty power of Jesus and take Action. "It's Your Time!"

Happy Monday We can't talk about walking in your assignment without addressing the issue of finances. I love being part of the Net Worth It podcast because I get to partner with some amazingly talent, smart and godly women to share truths about Business, Finances and Life. In this months episode, I get up close and personal and share some tips on a Kingdom Budget I used to help me navigate a financially challenging season. I discuss things such as: How to experience God in your Budget...
Happy Monday Reader Did you know that focus is a choice? As we continue to adapt to the changing conditions around us, we can choose if we will be distracted or focused in each moment. Here is the catch, how we choose to focus today should not be based on how we chose to focus yesterday. Yesterday and today are not in competition with each other. I love track and although running is not my cup of tea, I get to be a track mom and watch my son, Darius, as he runs the 4x100 and the 4x400 relays....
Happy Belated Mother's Day, I pray that if you are a mother you enjoyed your day. This week I want to wrap up our series on 'Why I don't use the word Busy.' If you didn't have the chance to read Part 1 or Part 2 just click those blue words and it will take you to them. Before I dive in, I have been feeling strongly that I need to connect with those of you that are feeling a nudging to transition from a career to a calling. Whether it be starting a ministry, business, writing, or relocation, I...
