God Built and Unapologetic: The Woman I Have Become 🙌🏾

2018. I was called into ministry. Since then, I've lived in three states and moved seven times.

This morning during my quiet time, God gave me Exodus 14:26-27. The Lord tells Moses to stretch out his hand over the sea so the water will flow back over the Egyptians. Moses does, and at daybreak the sea returns to its place. No survivors.

In eight years, God has had to remove so much from inside me: old beliefs, old fears, old stories. I believed those things because I didn't know who I was.

In my journal this morning, I wrote:
I never thought I could live without my ex-husband.
I never thought I could live by myself.
I never thought I could make it on my own.
I never thought I'd be a realtor.
I never thought I could be single.
I never thought I'd be Miss South Carolina.
I never thought I'd enjoy sleeping in a bed alone.
I never thought I'd travel the way I have. Since leaving New Orleans five years ago, I've taken two cruises and flown on a private jet to Colorado. I've been to Sedona, Cancun, Jamaica, Dallas, Vegas and Oak Island, and on Monday I head to Punta Cana.
I never thought I'd live in SouthPark.

But God.

But God knew what was in me. He knew I was brave, bold, strong, creative, messy, smart and resilient. He knew I would persevere. He knew I was tough.

God knew me before I knew myself.

Life is hard. Learning that, and learning to trust God through it, has been the greatest lesson He has taught me.

All I ever wanted was to be the woman I want my daughters to be. You'd think that would be easy, but it's so tough. With God, all things are possible, and I'm still growing.

What a journey it has been to get to my new home!

Two months staying with friends and then finally realizing that the people that own my building are not going to do anything in regards to my Mold. So once again in my life, I had to stand up and say I am worth more and I deserve better.

Derma mattress season five years ago I was praying for God just to take my life five years later during my Mold season. All I did was pray and ask God where are you taking me and what is going on?

Moving from strangers, that became friends and then became family has been really very difficult… Lots of tears and hugs and tears but my experience with God moving me from place to place. I know it was time to go.

Excited to share this journey of the next season with you. So many boxes in so much to do, but I finally have my bed to sleep in and a new home.

God bless!

Choosing life… Even when there is so much uncertainty and everything that I will face when I get home, but God has given me this moment and time. I’m grateful.

Day three vacation by myself. Spent the morning reading journaling and a little antsy. My last vacation was only two days by myself and today is the third day…

I overcame it though lol!! Just had the best peel and eat shrimp now enjoying the late afternoon on the beach. PEOPLE WATCHING.

Day two: Coffee, Jesus, Sun, seafood and beautiful weather!

Never in my life did I think that I could pick up and go on vacation with just me! God has brought me so far in five years and I am truly grateful!

Day 1: To all of my single friends! The adventures of going on vacation by yourself! It is probably one of the scariest, and most joyful things that the Lord has given me.

To go on vacation with yourself! I’m goofy, smart and I love connecting with people so talking to other people is not an issue. The issue becomes when I’m thinking that people are staring at me wondering why I’m alone. I’m like I’m not alone. I got Jesus.

I choose me!

My journey during this mold season and learning to fight for myself. This has been hard. Being a Mom I know how to fight for my girls and being a Realtor j know how to fight for my clients but me??

Having hard conversations, controlling what I can which is my mouth and paying for my own mold test.

God has brought me so far in these past 5 years! Grateful!!

Hope my journey will help someone out there speak up for themselves.

THE MOLD SEASON I AM IN…. haven’t slept in my home in almost 3 weeks. Last Friday my mold test came back POSITIVE!

One week later, I have four holes in my ceiling all the vents off.

Found the moisture source today and now time to get the mold remediation experts in here!

Learning patience, and endurance. Great news is I’ll be an expert and able to help my clients!!!!
