WAKE UP TO SELF-LOVE Part I
 |
| Love yourself, better than anyone can love you! |
Why are so many teens and women trying to change their appearance?
Why are we spending billion of dollars trying to change our hair, color, face and body shape?
Why are we falling the hype, “Blonds have more fun”, or you have to be thin to be beautiful?
What do you think would happen if we spent all of this time and effort, not to mention money on inner self improvement, learning to love and appreciate our selves or discovering and developing our talents?
Where is our self love?

| We must learn to love and accept our self |

I am proud of all of my daughters and they are all on a journey. Where is your life journey leading you? Are you on your God designed path? Or are still trying to please man rather than God?
Galatians 1:10 For am
I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please
men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant
of Christ.
Once you start working toward your God assigned tasks, you will be amazed as to how you will begin to see things in a different light and your energies and focus will propel you towards fulfilling the dreams God has placed in your heart.
Today's topic is from a letter I received from Arnetta. she is always sending me deep and motivating thoughts of wisdom that helps me stay on task. We all need a cheer leader. If you do not have one, ask God to send you some.
This is Netta's letter to me today.....
Live Life to the FUllest
I have one of the most wonderful, positive, full of life daughters. Arnetta K, is my middle child and a super go getter. She has completed her first published book.
The
title is "Full Length Mirror", by A.K. Parker. Please
visit www.lulu.com and type in the title of
my daughters book.
Arnetta sent this email to me this AM and she thoughts helped me to gather my thoughts for the day. Remember friends God as a great and wonder plan for our lives. check this out......
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you,
declares the Lord, Plans to prosper you, plans to give you hope and a
future."
God, are
Father has everything we need and then some. All we have to do is live
by His rules to get it........
My Daughters' thoughts for today....
Hello Mother,
I want to write this note to you. I want to let you know that I love you and pray that you are living your best life. In order to do this, you must let go of the past and only speak encouraging, positive words. You taught me that words are powerful. They are, so speak life into what you want. Know one can change anyone so speaking negatively about them only stills your energy and blocks your blessings. God has a plan for you. You need to get prepared to complete God's plans.
I hope that the information you received about the organization will help you find a place to stay. I know that in time you will fill your home with the items you need. Move forward with the anticipation of greatness.
You deserve the best, but the best will only come when you work toward it. Complete school and set your goals for each month of 2011. By December 2011, you can celebrate all of your efforts and dedication.
Love Always
Arnetta
