Worth UnderEstimated.

Every woman wants to feel beautiful . Every woman likes to feel wanted.
Every woman wants to feel like they are a part of something or value to someone.
There is no way we can deny it, WE ALL DO, INCLUDING MYSELF!


We do things for the attention desire. We dress the way we expect to get attention.
We do our hair the way we expect the world to accept it. We value ourselves to what people see, think, & believe about us.

Whether we want to accept our actions or not, WE DO!


CAN I BE TRANSPARENT TODAY?

          Back in jr. high /sr. high we had something called MySpace ( yes I took it wayyyy back). This is where my insecurities and pleasing people began to plant itself and bloom. I would spend like an hour trying to get the RIGHT picture from the RIGHT angle with the RIGHT background and the RIGHT filter.. YES, I put that much into it. All of that just so some guy would find me sexy or cute or some chick would look at me an envy me as beautiful. THAT'S JUST BEING REAL! I began to overly-value people & their opinions, unknowingly digging myself deeper into a hole of living for man's approval. Outside of MySpace, I had to have the best hairstyle, I had to be "talking" or dating one of the hottest athletes in school, and have the most popular friends. All those things I HAD to have & when I couldn't get them my heart was crushed & I felt WORTHLESS.

          All of these things carried over into my freshman year of college

where I became addicted to prescription pain killers to help numb my pains of rejection over and over.

I eventually overdosed and attempted suicide on March 11,2012

THIS WAS MY ROCK BOTTOM.

What started off as harmless fun put me in people bondage & battling depression

 & I felt my only way out was to DIE.

BUT JUST LIKE YOU....... GOD said no. I'm not done with you.



By federal mandate, patients who attempt suicide are sent to a mental institution for 72 hours for observation. I laid on my bed in that hospital, crying, heart crushed, ( STILL THINKING ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE SAYING BACK HOME), This moment is where I heard the still, audible voice of God say " From this point, there is freedom". At 3AM on March 12,2012 I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior and told Him he can have it ALL. My heart, my mind, my dreams, my life.



I write this because a burden has been placed on my heart for my sisters.
When I look our in this world, I see women who desire likes and friends on social media than the presence of their Father.
I see women who paint a happy face of makeup & cry themselves to sleep when the mask comes off and reality sets in.
I see women who desire something greater than they have been exposed too.

THEN..............  I see women who can be healed & made whole by the power of God in their lives.
I see women who know the importance of inner beauty and see themselves as beautiful by GOD's standards.
I see women living for God and not man. I see women who know they are QUEENS.


        So today I say lets talk fashion and budgeting later, today I say lets address the root. Lets dig deep, find the root & LET IT GO. Isaiah 2:22 : Don't put your trust in mere humans, They are as frail as breath. What good are they? .NO DEEP QUOTES JUST THE WORD. Today make let GOD reign in your hearts and live to make Him SMILE. That's all that matters. The omnipresent, omnipotent, supreme ruler who holds the UNIVERSE and best yet, YOUR CREATOR and FATHER's opinion ONLY matters.

What am I doing?
What am I here for?
Who am I?
Am I supposed to do something great?
I don't feel special.
Maybe I'm just regular.
Do I do what my family wants me to do? What about my desires, MY DREAMS?
I have these dreams of what I want to do, but....... Is it just a dream?
Can it be my reality?
What if I fail?
I'm just afraid.....
How am I supposed to live for God if I don't even know what exactly he wants me to do???

Any of these ever cross your mind? I know they've ran across mine.



- - - - - I LOVE shoes!!!!! I actually have a slight obsession with them. I believe the right pair of shoes gives a woman a certain assured confidence in herself. Gives you a slight "umph" when you walk, a little twist when you step out on a night with the girls, on date night, or just strolling along day to day.

- - - - - -There is certain type of shoes I think you should NEVER take off. They are the shoes I believe keep you aligned in knowing WHO you are in Christ and your purpose.  They keep your focus on what you were put on this earth for. They are your shoes of DESTINY. You destiny is yours to discover through intimacy with God. Your destiny is like no other just like no woman is like no other. It's YOUR specific pair that makes you unique and only YOU are graced to put them on. 

a certain excerpt from the book " Destiny: Let God Use You Like He Made You by one of my favorite authors Dr. Tony Evans comes to mind.....

"God has a purpose for you. He has a divinely ordained purpose just for you. It includes various things such as your passions, your personality, your skills, dreams, and hurts. ALL of these things merge together to empower you to fulfill your destiny." ...."... your destiny is the CUSTOMIZED calling God has ordained and equipped ONLY YOU to accomplish in order to bring Him the greatest glory and the maximum experience of His kingdom. "


You may be like me and have a passion for fashion and helping hurting women.
You may have a passion for kids.
Dreamed of owning your own store or studio.
Dreamed of having a family one day.
You may like to cook, draw, sing or dance.
You could have been the victim of a type of abuse or experienced some pain ( haven't we all) that you never thought you would break out from. You could even be the survivor of a horrific or tragic situation and still standing. WHATEVER it may be GOD will use it. It is all tied to YOUR DESTINY.

Colossians 3:17 : And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.

But what if I don't know for sure what my destiny is? Only God knows because he created you. Take it to Him in prayer. God wants nothing more for you than to come to the realization of who you are in Him so you can fulfill His Will. When you know never take your shoes off! When you keep them on, You can
