Throw Back Thursday #TBT

If there is one thing that can hold us back is our past. As much as we strive to become better human beings, we are constantly reminded of what we use to be. We feel as though we are never given enough credit for what we have overcome and have become today.

We have to know this starts by us. We have to accept who we once were and know, “I can never go back and change what I’ve done but what I’m going to do, is change what is in my control NOW.” 

Even when someone comes to remind you of who you once use to be – you make it a point to tell them “That’s how awesome God is because look at where I am today. I’m a walking testimony of God’s power, grace and mercy, and since you seem to be stuck in the same place where I was at one point in my life, I suggest you try God one of these days.” 

God has come to renew and restore all things, the devil on the other hand, would love to see you defeated and hopeless. Try now God in this – He will not let you down.

Tip Tuesday #TT

At times we can get so stuck in our culture, customs and routines, we choose not to live any other way. If you want to learn something new, experience new things, expose your children to new things you were never exposed to, than you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone. 

Yes I know its hard to let go of our habits, considering the fact we are creatures of habits, but its not impossible. God always allows someone to come into our lives for us to be introduced to that door. The door of new things, new opportunities, new experiences, new way of thinking. We, being scared of change, turn around and walk away from that opportunity because we don’t want to step out of our comfort zone, out of our familiar. 

I dare you today to step out of your comfort zone and allow God to open your eyes to new things, not only for yourself, but for those around you. One day, your children will thank you because you gave them a life worth looking forward too.
