Finish Strong

Just because we have been prepping ourselves for the New Year here at T3 doesn’t mean we are supposed to neglect the rest of 2013! In order to finish this year out strong we have to do something many of us fail at—be present and take care of today!

Every other week I think I fail at this task. I get so focused on the final product of the vision that may be years down the road that I miss out on what is going on right before my eyes. The parts of the vision that are already reality! In an attempt to finish strong I am going to commit myself to these new realities! I will acknowledge them, embrace them, and enjoy them because they are an important part of the journey. There will never be another year like 2013!

In an attempt to finish strong I will stop being so mean to myself! There can’t be another day in this month of December that I speak negatively to myself! I must be my number one encourager!

In an attempt to finish strong I will focus on self-control from day to day! The decisions that I make often cause me to fall back 50 steps. If I can focus on telling myself no or yes at the correct times I will get farther in the next 24 days than I have all year, I just know it!

In an attempt to finish strong I will keep my prayer and devotion time up to par so that I am prepared to walk in to my today and tomorrow. Oh and peep game, work on being obedient without complaints! If I could be honest, I complain like I don’t know how much that bothers God. (I’ve read in Exodus about the rebellious Israelites, they frustrate and anger him lol…I don’t want to do that anymore or hold myself back because of it).

In an attempt to finish strong I am going to take advantage of time with people who love me and strengthen me through their support! Even though there don’t seem to be enough hours in the day.

I plan on being successful at finishing this year out strong! With a smile, love in my heart, and a thirst for life! While I can’t wait to show you all what I have planned up my sleeve for 2014-2018 I can’t wait to show you what I got for you the rest of 2013 =)

How do you plan to finish this year out strong!? Comment, comment, comment!

PS: COMMENT! Lol ❤

Just Saving Lives…

I had plans to post about something else this week but I thought let me hold off. This is only because I want to share about an event I was privileged to be a committee member and volunteer for. The first annual Royal Summer Tea that took place yesterday August 24, 2013.

My heart is called to pregnant teens and women who have experienced abortion in the past and need assistance in understanding that grace applies to them as well. One of my spiritual mothers introduced me to a ministry a couple of years ago and I have been volunteering there ever since. The organization is called His Nesting Place and they run a pregnancy center and home for unwed mothers as an alternative to abortion. They live life to save the lives of the unborn. (His Nesting Place on Facebook)

Many people feel some kind of way when hearing about pro-life ministries. I must admit that has been me at different points in my life BUT when I am able to experience first hand the lives that are saved (both child and parents) by this ministry, there is no way I can be mad at what they stand and fight for…LIFE. They have been in operation for over 30 years and have housed thousands of women and their children since opening their doors.

Yesterday the first annual summer tea was held in Rolling Hills Estates in one of the most beautiful gardens I have ever been in, in my life. God really blessed His Nesting Place with absolute favor as the owner of the home opened up her beautiful garden in order to put this fundraiser on.

With over 120 guests in attendance His Nesting Place was able to raise funds and spread awareness about the issue of abortion in America. I feel that the testimonies that were shared by a few of the young women there were touching and resonated with the spirit of everyone in attendance. Which made me feel that I should reach out to my readership on the issue. 

Even though abortion is one of the procedures performed most on women in America it is still a super touchy subject. I just want to hit on it long enough to tell you that: 

1) There are always alternatives to abortion no matter what the situation is. 

2) God has given you the gift of free will! As you exercise it make sure that you are properly and fully educated on the decisions of abortion, parenting, and adoption both in the natural and in the spiritual. 

3) Men or women, if you have had an abortion in the past and are having difficulty dealing with it, whether it happened 2 days ago or 37 years ago, you are not the only one. God wants you to know that there is restoration for you. The guilt, anger, sadness that may be associated with it no longer has to be. Silence surrounding your abortion choice can be the loudest pain in your life. If you are ready to talk about it with someone please do! Not only can you contact me at the His Nesting Place Pregnancy Help Center or through my private practice www.YouCanTherapy.com but you can also find a network of counselors throughout the US and internationally via www.SaveOne.org. 

Freedom is yours if you want it! You have to take the first step…Repentance. That can happen strictly between you and God! Then, if you’re ready there are plenty of people, including myself, ready to help!

Love,

Did he just trade his birthright for some stew?

Flashing back to an old post, mainly because I needed to read it again. Hope it can encourage someone else. Originally written 10/15/2011
Come on Esau were you really that hungry? Was Jacob’s cooking just that bomb?!

Ok let me back it up and do a quick recap just in case we aren’t familiar with the story of Jacob and Esau. Well at least the beginning of their story that can be found in Genesis chapter 25 verses 19-34.

*read the following real fast like we are speeding through time*
So Isaac (Abraham’s son) and Rebekah got married. Rebekah was barren but Isaac pled to God regarding this and BOOM she was pregnant with not one but two babies. So while these twin wrestlers were still being carried they fought with each other. Rebekah sought God about this and He told her that two nations were at war in her womb and once they were born “one people [would] be stronger than the other and the older [would] serve the younger” (Genesis 26:23 NKJV).

Esau was born first and then Jacob followed holding onto his big brother’s heel. Esau was the macho
