I know it's been a while....But things are happening! God is moving!

I know it's been a while...

I know I've been MIA with THIS blog lately. I'm going to try and be better. It's been a crazy summer and things are happening. God is moving and I'm so excited to share some things with you! 
I've been building my own online business and I'm having a great time doing it! If you want to check out all my hard work you can find me at https://6figurehousewife.com/. 

But Today, I want to Encourage You...

I want to leave you with Jeremiah 12:5. God is speaking to Jeremiah after he has been complaining about his current situation.

"If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you, how will you compete with horses?

What does this mean? 
  • If you want God to do the Big Things - you have to show up for the little things
  • The little things DO matter - God sees them even when no one else does
  • Trust Him and you WILL be able to run with the horses - God is saying that it IS possible
I want to pray for each and every one of you today. You are what this community great!

Feeling Underachieved?

Have You Ever Felt Under-Accomplished?

Maybe there was a goal that used to be on your horizon, but today seems like a distant dream. Maybe you're not as advanced in life as you hoped to be by now and the feeling of failure begins to seep in. But what if instead of feeling like we failed - we simply realize that our goals change over time.

Priorities determine much of how we live our lives. Sometimes a sacrifice does have to be made, sometimes we do miss out. But just because a door closes, doesn't mean it's locked shut with the key forever gone into an abyss. Sometimes, it just takes longer to get there than we originally expected.

So, if there's anything that you want to accomplish in your lifetime, today is a great day to readjust some priorities. You can't go back in time and change your beginning - but today you can begin to change your ending. A phrase my husband uses that was passed down from his father, "If there isn't time to do it right, there's time to do it over." We can't change what's been done, but we can start to make changes today!

So what can you do today? Maybe it's as simple as just writing it down. Put a declaration on your bathroom mirror! Look at it everyday and decided what small steps you can take to make your dreams come true. So, some practical steps:
 
  1. WRITE IT DOWN AND LOOK  AT IT EVERY DAY (you can do that NOW)
  2.  GET A CHEERLEADER....or two or three. You don't have to shout out your ambitions to the whole world, but a few close friends who will be there to encourage you along the way and who won't let you give up - no matter how many times you may fail.
  3. REMEMBER...BABY STEPS. It might not be the right time in your life to move to France - but if it's what you want to do, start by putting a few dollars away every day. One step at a time still gets you one step closer.
  4. PRAY...this should be first. Because if you're going to be truly happy and accomplish what God has already put in your heart, you'd better make sure you're it's what HE has in store for you. God cares about your happiness. He put those desires in you in the first place. Make sure He's part of the plan - better yet, make sure He is the plan!
