Great morning and Happy Friday!

I pray you are well and in great spirits. Today I share a moment of awakening!

This morning, I rose at 5 a.m., sat quietly praying and meditating. When I finished, a great sense of peace came over me. I said out loud, "I am well. I am healthy. I am whole. I am loved. I am full of goodness." I smiled, realizing I have spoken these words over and over for the past 16 years, and suddenly, this day, I recognized the value in what I've spoken to myself about my state of being. Somewhere and somehow over these years, I've come to BE what I've spoken and had not even realized it.

Healing did not happen overnight. Peace was not obtained without turmoil. Calmness did not magically appear without chaos. Clarity did not manifest without confusion. Love did not come without great understanding.

God is rich in grace, gentle in mercy, and full of love (which He freely gives). He knows how He created us and who He designed each of us to BE. This morning, I encourage you to seek to know thyself and embrace your strategically God-crafted design. Speak well over yourself. Do not cave to the negative voices of others, and certainly, do not give in to negative self-talk. There’s value in positivity that manifests when you think it, speak it, and believe it—you then BECOME what you think, speak, and believe.

"If thou canst believe, ALL things are possible to him that believeth." (Mark 9:23)
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." (Romans 8:28)

Think well, Do well, Speak well, Be well, & Live well! Have an amazingly beautiful day—ON PURPOSE! Embrace the Value of Positivity!

With Love,
