SMILE & ENJOY EVERY MOMENT WITH YOUR LITTLE HUMANS 💜💙
I don’t know if this only happens to me. Though it does not happen as frequently as it once did, it happened this week. There are moments in my marriage when I put forth the effort, and my efforts are dismissed, unnoticed, and even devalued.
I found myself recording a conversation because I knew that he’d forget what he was saying to me and then deny that the words he uttered were not said.
He says that I don’t work enough. Yet, I’m still…
-Working with my clients on Fiverr -I’m homeschooling my two kids and devoting time to all their activities -I take care of my newborn 24/7 -I’m working on an online course for single women who are on their dating journey -I cook every day and clean -I’m the one that cleans the house, washes clothes, etc.
It hurts at first because I KNOW that I AM doing enough already. I shed a few tears, but as I wash my face and look in the mirror, I KNOW THAT I KNOW I’m doing more than enough. It hurts because I would love to be and to feel appreciated. But I cannot dwell on a desire that is not fulfilled.
Instead, I focus on the FACT that I SEE what I do. Most importantly, God sees my devotion and commitment to my family and my kids. I am committed to my first ministry—my family. So, I am doing something right.
Friends:
Just because someone doesn’t see the good that you do doesn’t mean that it isn’t valid.
Validate yourself.
-The opinion that you have of yourself is ENOUGH. -Your point of view is ENOUGH. -Though it’s nice to be appreciated and feel seen, it’s not necessary. -CELEBRATE YOURSELF & all that you do!
I had my moment. I cried. But I’m back up. I’m my own cheerleader.
-Did you cheer for yourself today? -Did you motivate yourself today? -Did you love on yourself today?
It’s time to rise and applaud yourself. Sometimes your applause is all you need to get back up and back to work.
I was CLUELESS. While I was on my dating journey as a Christian young woman attending a church, I don't remember being told what toxic personalities looked like.
There was a focus on marriage and the goal was to get married, but what I needed was to learn how to date. I needed help in my dating journey, more than focusing on finding someone to marry.
I feel that most of us are caught up in wanting to find our soulmate and the right person to do life with, that we lose sight of important aspects of dating.
I was told: When you are on a date, ask as many questions as possible. What they didn't tell me is: How to identify the red flags to a toxic personality while in conversation.
Because of my own dating experience when I dated my husband, I learned that I needed to learn how to date and what to look out for. I already knew what I was looking for in a man. What I didn't know was the behaviors or personality that I needed to watch out for. They tell us to protect our hearts, but you cannot protect your heart if you don't know how to protect it and from whom.
What did you learn in your dating experience? What would you have done differently?
"Lack of knowledge hinders one's ability to make better decisions."
Being a mom has given me more than a purpose. It's given me focus, direction, vision, and helped me become self-disciplined. But most of all, it's pushed me to HEAL 🙏✨
Through my children, I have healed many aspects of my childhood trauma. God has shown me different facets of his love with my children.
What have you learned as a mother? What has God shown you? What revelations have you experienced?
