Moment of Truth

Okay Lets Be REAL....I am Tired..Stretched thin..on straight up E! Have you ever felt that way? Like I'm Done...Its Friday & I'm CLOCKING OUT & Oh yea by the way I QUIT...(only until Monday though) lol. Sometimes Its crucial  to just TAKE A BREAK. Remove yourself from as much as you possibly can and UNPLUG! I'm in a place where I need to UNPLUG & evaluate...Like girl take off the mask and really look at your life...What areas do you need to strengthen? are you doing to much? Are you stretched to thin? Is your Focus In places it Should be..Most importantly..Where is GOD ranked in your life right now?? Have you gotten so caught up in LIFE & PURPOSE That you forgot all about THE ONE who made it all possible for you? What are your priorities right now?? What are you submerging yourself in so that you don't have to face that you really don't have it all together..you're actually just clinching on to the last thread of "togetherness" that you have. Lets FACE THE FACTS...Are You Ready?? Are you ready to stop being so "BUSY" doing nothing and pick yourself up by the boot straps and just face the fact that you need time to just SIT & HEAL...No more filling your itinerary to capacity just so you don't have to sit at home and face the fact that you are BURNT OUT...STRETCHED THIN..BROKEN..FAKING IT TIL YOU MAKE IT & OVERLY TIRED. It's okay to admit that you need a little "Me Time".You are your biggest investment. Take care of yourself. Mind, Body & Spirit.

           

Looking at Me Challenge: Blog Style.

Created by: @bellachantellaa & @taliah_thebeautiful (Via IG)

Greetings Kings & Queens, I was inspired to 
participate in this challenge, in which I believe 
was created by the above instagram names. If not, please correct me in the comments b/c I want to be sure the correct persons are given credit...also I want to encourage you all to go and search the #lookingatmechallenge and read some of the most transparent and amazing testimonies I've ever seen.

Looking at me you wouldn't know that my whole life I feel as if I was always battling something. I came into the world in a "broken state" my biological father wasn't an active part of my life..but I thank God for my dad who stepped in and is the best father b/c he took on responsibilities that he didn't have to. Well being one of 5 children, I also was the darkest child (my mom is beautifully chocolate) & lets just say when I was in elementary school "DARK SKIN WASN'T IN" It was probably one of the worst times in my life. I was constantly being ridiculed for my skin. I was so over it! It didn't matter how smart, thin, athletic or whatever I was DARK SKIN DISQUALIFIED ME. Well it wasn't until college that I had my first boyfriend that picked me b/c he actually liked me and not b/c of my physical assets. Looking at me you also wouldn't know that I became a single mother at the age of 19. Technically I was 18.Sophomore in college and PREGNANT! Yep that was me and I started out as one of those "bash yo baby daddy along w. me on FB type of girls". Shortly after that I began engaging in relationships that were completely out of Gods will for my life! I had somebody just to have someone. If they would entertain me,,then I was holding them down. DUMB DUMB DUMB DUMB!  Looking at me now you should now know that somebody introduced me to JESUS! Somebody was so TRANSPARENT with me about their life..that I was able to believe through somebody else that God was truly able. That it wasn't just the FB post, IG quotes or Twitter re-tweets...but GOD IS REAL. He could deliver me from anything that I engaged in that wasn't of him. That he'd give me a second, third, fourth and or fifth chance to get it right.  Looking at me you wouldn't know that I even to this day I encounter things I never thought I would or could handle...BUT GOD... Looking at me now I want you to know that YOU too can receive this same LOVE...JOY...PEACE...That I have encountered. All you need to do is look up, get down and pray or just boldly state "LORD MY LIFE ISN'T MY OWN..TO YOU I BELONG..I GIVE MYSELF TO YOU" You can be set FREE just like myself and many others. If you Just give up the driver seat of your life to THE ULTIMATE DRIVER! Though this isn't my full testimony I believe its enough to show you how AWESOME the God I serve Is.

I Challenge each reader of this blog to participate in this challenge. Even if it isn't on a social media platform, write it out and look at how far he's brought you!!! & watch the praise you allow to go up just from seeing "I DON'T LOOK LIKE WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH" !

So how many times have we all heard that losing weight starts with your mental state? A million right? Well I hate to say that as long as I was in denial it turns out its THE TRUTH. Craziness I tell you. It wasn't until I sat down and truly put my mind to it that I began to see results. But I also realized that  it isn't enough to just think "I want to lose weight" I needed to come up with a legit plan.

 

So honey I put all those pins to use that I made on pinterest. Yep... Instead of just looking at them and saying "oh I'm going to try this" I actually made  the recipes. So from this point forward I'm just going to share some pictures and recipes with you that I decided to try out. *ALERT* I am nobodies "fitness guru and I'm not saying that these things are doctor approved or what not...I just like the way I feel and what I see" !

It's Time to Self Discipline

Self Discipline:

• discipline and training of oneself, usually for improvement.

So what does yours look like? Moment of transparency..mine has its on/OFF days and it even goes into my spiritual life *inserts readers gasps* lol. Yes I'm far from perfect despite what people may "report" or think. sometimes i'm completely on track and on schedule..and other times i'm telling myself how I need to be doing something, I set the date to begin and never do. I mean am I by myself or am I speaking to somebody?? So how do we get ourselves in line?

Firstly I believe in all things that we must "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need."(Matthew 6:33) and then begin to plan. Secondly, truly access the desires of our hearts so that we can see whats taking up our time, whether it be family, work, school, social media...etc. Thirdly lets prioritize and stop giving ourselves the opportunity to get off track.

Lets get honest with ourselves the reason we can't get to things we NEED to is b/c their is to much unnecessary CRAP in our lives that need to GO. I firmly believe tat we make time for what we WANT. If I want bundles installed, you better believe I have time to search my options prior to the purchase. If I want jewelry I have time to scan my closet to see what outfits I have that will go with a particular pattern I'm interested in..but all the while my heart is still HEAVY! *inserts OVERWHELMED emoji* lol.

But seriously here's why, I can honestly say that I pushed my time with God back and sometimes the time with him didn't even happen on that particular day. Sad I know! I'll know every single thing happening on "the shade room" But won't even know the word that I so desperately need but cant hear nor receive b.x the CRAP I let block MY MAIN SOURCE, the giver of life who provides me with BREATH in my body and I have the audacity to put him in the line-up anywhere but first???? Okay everybody say it with me ....

                                           "GIRL YOU TRIPPIN' "

It's time to get in control of ourselves. It's time for self-discipline..We count on every other source to help us keep our lives on track but ourselves! What it also boils down to is caring enough about ourselves. So lets make a pact...(everyone that agrees to I would like you to please comment "agree" so that we can hold one another accountable)

1.) We will Seek HIM first in all things.

2.) We will Re-Prioritize our life according to his will.

3.) We Will ACT on the changes that need to be made. *NO MORE LIP SERVICE*

4.) We will care enough about ourselves that we will put our spiritual, mental, emotional and physical self FIRST.

5.) We will share our pact w/ our accountability partner and hold one another to the agreed terms.

I love you all w/ the love of Jesus. Its the year of the comeback. Kings & Queens take your crowns. We are embracing what was already predestined for our lives.

                                                                                                           w/ love

Its Time To Take Control

How many times do we use our emotions to turn a situation in our favor? How many of us can willingly raise our hand a say GUILTY...yes indeed instead of owning up to my wrongs and facing the situation head on...I run and allow my emotions to take control of the situation.

Well i'm here to STOP you dead in your tracks. Its time for us to own up to the roles we play. So let me start by telling you a small story...

In 2014 my husband and I had a disagreement and at the time I hadn't REALIZED that I was emotionally manipulative..but we'll get back to that..So my husband wasn't understanding what I was so adamantly trying to make TRUE...so he removed himself from the room (rightfully so bc I was wrong) but what I did next was PURE DRAMA QUEEN... On the couch in the living room I turned off the TV..cut off all the lights and covered my entire body in the blanket..knowing that when he came from the kitchen he'd be looking for me and see me in that place *Rolls eyes* "Get yo life Kam" is what i'm saying to myself as I share this with you all. lol Now my husband rushed over to check on me, hugged me and I instantly felt like the "WINNER"..smh but I was so terribly wrong.

What I came to realize through an intense conversation with my fellow wives of Christ is that in all actuality I LOST, I CHEATED AND I HAD GOTTEN NOWHERE. My husband begin to see me as a ridiculously emotional creature whom he couldn't talk to b/c he didn't believe I could receive ANYTHING without crying. Ladies (and Gentleman too) We have to take control of our emotions...They don't control us we control them.

 Its a crying shame when PRIDE, PAST HURTS, ABUSE, DEPRESSION and/or INSECURITY is playing puppet master WITH YOU!  Those matters of  your heart are controlling the body EVERYDAY..snap out of it Queen (King)..Take back control of YOUR LIFE. No person, place or thing can have what I wants unless you give in to it.

"Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." -Proverbs 4:23

"For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,"-Romans 8:6

Take a vow today Kings and Queens that you are TAKING BACK control of your mind, body and spirit. If you don't know how start with giving God your life.

"Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."

Vision

Welcome Everyone.

Then the lord said to me,

     "(2)Write my answer plainly on tablets, so that a runner can carry the correct message to others. (3) This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed." --Habakkuk 2:2-3 (NLT). 

Let me first start by saying thank you for taking the time out to even click on the link directing you to my blog site. This has been something that has been on my heart to do for quite sometime..however it wasn't until NOW that I decided to act on it. Therefore Let me first start by introducing myself!

My name is Kammy, I'm a Woman of God, Wife and Mother to an awesome little girl. I just recently moved to Texas and I'm excited for all the many things I will birth while being here. Now let me be completely transparent with the purpose of this blog....

           Empower. Educate. Encourage 

I believe that its time that we as women take our CROWNS back! And if you haven't lost yours to something then I want to encourage you to either put yours on or NEVER let it fall off. Most of my post will be based off of my spiritual beliefs, the teachings I've encountered and personal experiences I have had throughout this journey of LIFE. 

I pray that the blogs that I post be a blessing unto you, that you may take at least one thing away from them and apply them to your life and or share them with someone who could use the encouragement. 

I apologize in advance for anyone looking for correct grammar, punctuation and things of that nature....lol that's not my main concern here. As you enjoy reading...I enjoy typing and sharing and I want this to be as REAL as possible. Who knows where the lord will take this blog and how many it will reach.

But if I can just touch ONE.   I'll be just fine with that.

So with today being my birthday..#23, I say happy BIRTHday to my PURPOSE.  I love you.

May the Lord bless and keep you all. 

QUEEN.
