Please don’t take today’s post the wrong way. Yesterday, someone came up to me and said, “I’m sure your husband is a very lucky man!” I thanked the lady and told her that I was not married. She responded by saying that she was very sorry for me and would pray for me because I was single. Although I understood her mindset, I was a bit offended. While, I’m open to a husband coming into my life, I am very content in my singleness and don’t feel any less of a person because I’m single. I encourage those of you who are single to know you are not a half looking for another half to make you whole. You are not defective or missing anything because you are single. You are not less, you are not to be pitied, looked down upon or to be ashamed of. You are simply single, either by choice or for this time. Hold your head high and move forward.

Sometimes I get so frustrated with myself because I get so focused on a situation or the destination that I try to make it happen or get ahead of the timing set in place. Does that ever happen to you?
 There have been times when I have been so focused on things like reaching a goal, not missing a goal, trying to change a habit, find out a purpose or direction, etc. that not only did I fail to reach that intended end but I added a load of worry, frustration, fear, sleepless nights and a few gray hairs to my plate.
Most times, especially if they are purpose-related, those things are supposed to be worked out through a process that we will never be able to control, analyze, do in five steps, work out in our timing, understand, or go through struggle-free. I have to remind myself to allow myself the freedom to rest and not miss out on the beautiful journey of the people and scenery in the midst of the journey.
Remember: Things that are not automatic or come easy will always be those things that require an inner change to take place before an outer occurrence will happen. Just a thought!

You know some days, regardless of our position, gender, wealth or status in life, we have a time when we feel lonely and up against the world. It is easy to believe the wild emotions running through us telling us that we are failures, peopl
e hate us, we’re not going to get that job, we should not write that book, God can’t use us, what we do doesn’t matter and so many other things. Please hear this from me as I encourage myself as well. Those things you are feeling are nothing but lies to cut off your potential. You are better than a weak feeling that will be gone in moments and more than anything that can attempt to snatch your purpose and future. Feel what you feel, then go do your thing. YOU CAN DO THIS!

Remember, discouragement and frustration are part of the journey in living out our dreams. We look around and often find it easier to fall in with those who settle for the known and safe yet we hunger and long for more. I believe you and I were placed on this earth to do more than settle and get by. We were created to dream, struggle, fight through challenges and endure till the our lives and the lives of others are changed. We can do this!

Man, I have had a crazy, crazy (did I say crazy?) week. Also, trying to duck and weave the germs and Streptococcus of those around me. Planning to do absolutely NOTHING on Saturday but stay in bed with the cat kids and watch old classic movies with a bowl of popcorn and lemonade with my pajamas on all day. Ah, it’s good to be single! What are your plans?

Each day, we have a choice to make that reflects our character and level of courage. We have the choice to live in fear, remain a victim of our past and to offer excuses or we have the choice walk in courage and faith in spite of our past and others towards our future and dreams.
