With much love, I say, that there are some women who are uncovered, , “Spiritually, Emotionally, & Financially!”
Last, but not least, some are walking around “uncovered even in their attire!” 👀
Let’s talk about it! It may be hot here in Atlanta, but, it would be very ladylike to put more than 5% of clothes on when going to the local grocery store to pick up a dozen of eggs & a box of Milk Duds. Modesty is STILL in effect for 2019 & going forward!
It’s not cute to see butt cheeks hanging out... in fact, a bra would be very much usual!! This IS coming from a place of love because some women simply may not know. I will admit, back in my much younger days, I know I had on some things that I know ask myself, “What in the world was I thinking?” We live & we learn AND we help others! Let’s learn “sooner” than “later.”
Now, being uncovered in the other areas, “some” women are uncovered in their spiritual walk, their emotions and also their finances because they could very well be with someone who keeps them stagnant. Meaning the man in their life.
Is he a Godly man? If he isn’t, how does that help you grow in your walk? That’s being unequally yoked. You can grow together, but why “fail” together unnecessarily?
Being uncovered emotionally, means that he may not know how to cover you in prayer about your emotions when you’re going through something as a woman and/or mom. Will he know how to comfort and show compassion & empathy. Is he the type of man, that will say, “Get over it!” That’s not covering you... that’s hurting you!
Last, you’re not being covered financially if you’re with a man who is selfish! He takes and never gives. He’s not a provider, but looks to you to care for him.
Please do NOT misunderstand me... I’m not talking about marriages! I’m talking to women who are in relationships with men who are not helping you win! You can be financially independent all day long, BUT, what does that have to do with him standing on his own two feet and handling business and being a man who wants to provide for the one he loveseat and to build something great “together”. Ladies, if you know this speaks to you, it’s time to move ahead to bigger and better things. Don’t block your blessings.

SIDEBAR:
And to the fellas who may read this... the ones who’ve had some hardships and trying their best to do better for themselves, hats off to you all! I see you and praying for you! I know it’s not always easy, in fact, many days seem difficult and have been difficult. Keep pushing though, and never stop giving it your best! I’m talking about the ones who really don’t care about the woman... the ones who are all about self and the ones who like to play mind games with a woman who only mean them well.
So again, you may not have a walk with God right now, you may not know how to comfort a woman, and you may not have your finances in order…however, what you do have is another day to change your life for the better, so start with the Lord. PRAY to Him for direction. Start there & stay there!
If you’re wanting to be saved and have a a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, repeat out loud, the scripture below, and believe. May God Bless You.
ROMANS 10:9, 10
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.

The beginning of last week started off a little rough and this went on for a total of 3 days. My mood was emotional, I was feeling sluggish and simple didn't feel like any bother from anything or anyone. What I really wanted to do was to continue on with something that I've been working on, yet, I just couldn't get with the program. I then decided that I needed some rest in my mind, body and soul. I had to calm my spirit down, to relax and keep my mind focused on every thing about the Lord. I realized that I had become burdened and concerned with the problems of what others were facing as well as some of my own struggles. The relaxing period was to pamper myself, to refuel and get rejuvenated in order for me to follow through with my original plan. I knew that the enemy wanted me overwhelmed and worn out. I could allow him to think that he could just come in to do what he wanted. I decided to "push through" and force myself to get beyond the "feeling". I was drained emotionally and physically...yet, I pushed! And guess what? I was able to get some things accomplished on that 4th day...I was even able to smile as another reminder that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)

September 7, 1991 was the day after I left the father of mytwo older sons. A friend picked us up from a hotel where I gladly went to the night before. I never looked back & never doubted my decision. I was a young mother and cried many tears long before that day... so there was nothing left. What I did have was courage, strength & hope for a better tomorrow. Little did I know that I'd encounter some hardships down the road. However, through it all, some days the wind lessened or God increased my strength. As I write this, I ask could I have done things differently? Perhaps yes, but at the same time, when you don't have the wisdom from the Lord, there's no telling what path you'll go on. James 4:8 Draw near to God and He'll draw near to you.

Hello Ladies,
I hope all is well in your life and the life of those you love and hold near and dear. I'm at home alone so I decided to take a moment to post a blog.
Today I want to encourage all of you women who are in unhealthy, abusive, toxic relationships to get out of them. And by all means, DO NOT MARRY a man who abuses you in any way on any level. Trust me...if you stay, it will only get worse. Cut it off immediately, and if you're in danger, be wise about how you depart. Why amI telling you all of this? Simply because you deserve better. Staying in a bad relationship keeps you in bondage. Having the courage to walk away will give you more power than you ever knew you had. . Life is short. You should be happy living YOUR life. If you have small kids, protect them. Teach them about the love of God. Give them a foundation to stand on asap. Don't allow anyone to corrupt their "normal & healthy" thinking pattern of right values and morals. When you free yourself from such foolishness, you'll feel free. God will eventually send a loving man your way. Don't look for him, he'll show up when you least expect him...just as my husband did. Keep in mind, that when you do walk away,your ex may be very angry, vindictive, jealous and mean spirited towards you. Don't allow his poison to keep you in bondage or connected. This is only another reminder of how controlling your ex was and still wants to be.
You have the right to walk away from a person who makes you unhappy due to the abuse. You have a right to be happy. You owe him nothing!!! All that you can do for a person like that is pray that GOD will deliver him. Pray that God changes that man's heart. YOU CANNOT CHANGE ANYONE...only God can. The last thing that you need to remember... "You are beautiful...don't allow anyone to steal your joy, your peace nor your happiness.

Proverbs 6:34
For jealousy is the rage of a man:
therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
(Don't allow the scripture above to put fear in you.
This allows you to be wise & be on guard. )

Sometimes things aren't moving fast enough! You're in somewhat of a dry place. Things are happening, but they're NOT happening. Sure, the same old routine is going on. Day in and day out, but the things you've been dreaming about is like the very last bit of molasses slowly pouring out of the bottle. And you know that is slow! LoL. You have to ask yourself, "what is going on here?" I'll give you a few things to think about.
1.) "Are you wanting something that you're not supposed to have?"
2.) "Have you prayed over it?"
3.) "Have you lost your motivation & now you're in a rut?"
4.) "Do you have a support system...family and friends who believe with you?"
5.) "Are you procrastinating and expecting things to fall in it's own place?"
6.) "Are you angry and bitter?"
7.) "Do you have "powerful" spiritual sisters in your corner?"
8.) "Have you taken on too much as wife, mom, sister, daughter and/or, friend
and now your dreams and goals are on the backburner?"
9.) "Do you need a girl's day?"
10.) "Do you need to re-evaluate some things in order to bring NEW clarity to the situation?"
It's obvious that something is going on. The point is that you step back, and take a look. Just because you're in a dry place doesn't mean that things aren't moving as you think they should. God is always working behind the scenes doing something. Whatever it is, you're now of aware of it, so take action one way or another as your spirit guides. (Even if you are to just remain still for the moment.)

Sometimes quiet, dry places brings a loud revelation!
