Right Where You Belong

Choose to Be, Right Where You Belong
The thing about life is that you are always trying to find the place where you feel most comfortable and fit in. However, the place of comfort is basically a state of being because nothing is always what it seems. What I mean is this, there would always be some obstacles or difficulties that you would face where ever you exist. Perhaps, you're feeling frustrated on your job, or in your marriage or with school but those frustrations will have its place in your life to build you, shape you and define you.

We sometimes think that we got to get out of something or move from a place because of all the signs which shows that it is not working and everything you are doing seems to be failing.  I know that feeling, oh so well where I just couldn't take it any longer because of some opposition that I was facing or difficulty that I found myself into, but the thing is everyone of those difficulties or obstacles challenged me, strengthened me and made me into the person I am today.

Think about Joseph, he was thrown into a pit by his brothers, eventually sold as a slave in Potiphar's house, ran into some problems there and was thrown into prison. I am sure Joseph wished that he could get out of the mess he was in but after the stretching , breaking, the molding, the filling, God eventually moved Joseph from the Pit to the Palace.

Recently, I was dealing with a few obstacles where I felt that I did not want to deal with this any longer. I was so ready to walk away and give up and move on. However, someone reminded me that on my way to my Greater, attacks, opposition and difficulties will arise to push me back to a familiar place and stop my progress on the road to success. There is always a new devil for every level we reach in life but it is up to us, to push our way through with our weapons of Prayer, Praise and Worship. The enemy does not want us to reach our place of destiny and he will do all that he can to discourage us and to push us back to a familiar, sad and defeated place... but don't give place to the devil...push him back!

The place where you are right now may be one of those hard places where all you see is darkness, doom, gloom and failure. You may be in a place where you see no progress and face opposition on every side. If you don't see a clear way out, know this You are right where you belong.

If the doors have not swung open for you, it simply means there is still something God may have for you to do right where you are. Don't allow the obstacles to push you out before your time. Don't despise your process of stretching, molding and filling...I believe God is up to something in your life. When it is all over, you will move into your destiny...up where you belong!

Mean It!

  Hello, is this thing on?🎤 Well, it has been a while since I have released a blog post. The reason is that I have not been inspired to write much of anything lately. When I tell you the season I was in, from a personal perspective was a dry season. it was a period of being off the grid and staying in the shadows. It was the season of my detox. It required me to be poured into rather than pouring out myself.  Lately, I found myself searching and in desperate need of something different. I needed more!   Now, I want to qualify my statement, by simply stating that I needed more than the norm. More for my life! My professional life, my spiritual life, and my personal life required me to seek beyond my normal. I was... no I am intentional about my next season being way different than before. I cannot get away with a mediocre outlook on life because I want more of what life has to offer.  I want to be more. I want to experience more. I am not speaking from the materialistic or influential

Unspoken Words...I Broke Down Today!!!

So how's this for a reel...real talk, real truth and real emotions... I Broke Down Today!!! Some would say, I had a meltdown while others would say I lost total control of my emotions. I would have been deemed emotional and yet I was unashamed... I baled, I balled, I cried out in desperation because of hurt, pain, mishandling and misinformation. You see days before I was walking tall, proud that I was keeping it all together. For what though, for a world that is growing colder and callous every day. Now has me wondering, do people truly care about people. The world today is not the world that I dreamt about...a world of peace, love, unity, equality, equity and family togetherness...just the sound of it seems farfetched now. But yet I still have a dream... that one day tings gonna get better...like the good Bishop says. I broke down today because family is not the same anymore, so much  division, so much strife, no unity and I am asking where is the love that once was had. I broke d

Live Free: Getting Rid of Toxic Connections

I hate to admit the obvious, but I am still learning how life, love and all things in between work. I must confess that I will forever be a life-long learner until the day I die. One thing I've recently discovered for certain is that we are responsible for what we bring into our lives. We are responsible for the types of relationships we have and the people we are associated with. I am aware of how toxic people can be and how we must truly guard our peace at all costs. The older you get, the more baggage you carry. Unfortunately, if the weight is not offloaded, it becomes heavier and heavier. You can then unload on an unwitting victim. On this blog, I've often mentioned introspection and doing the work on yourself before you can help anyone else. However, for clarity and emphasis, you must prioritize your personal development and healing. This comes with the understanding and knowledge that some people are not your assignment and you are not required to help them improve. Geesh
