Many of you are simply going through the motions of life. The initial drive and determination you once had to believe God and to stand on His Word are gone. Yes, you are getting up in the morning, going to work and coming home; but that is it. You are only doing the things you need to do to make it, but you are not going beyond that. You don’t have the energy or the spiritual strength you once had. When you hear or read a scripture that tells you “you can make it” or “God will make a way,” you are not excited because you feel as if you heard it before and that the word does not work. But you must pick yourself up and believe again. You can not stop believing and trusting in God and his Word. Your season and your time is coming.

The last couple of days have been a battle against staying in a depressive state. This is a struggle that I’ve talked about often. For me to get myself back on track I have to constantly feed my mind positive thoughts and I have to get my body moving. If I do not do this then I can run the risk of being down for days. What do I mean by moving? Well, all the activities I feel like I don’t have the energy for I make an effort to still get to Zumba class or make my entrepreneur meeting. If I go down I am more likely to stay down so movement becomes key. What do I mean by feeding my mind positive thoughts. For instance, I will tell myself get up and make class, you can do it, it’s okay baby girl, remember you are loved, you’ve come so far let’s go further, God got your back, etc. This helps me stay motivated instead of defeated. This helps me feel like I’ve accomplished my day to day task instead of feel like I’m letting everyone and everything down. It’s hard work, but I remind myself I am up for the challenge.
