Be A Beautiful Mess

Live your life free of the chains of trying to  be that which  you are not! Don't strive to follow anyone's footsteps but your own! When you set out to be in someone's shadow trying to imitate who they are in the long run you end up heart broken and lost! Be you! 
Be a Mess!
You may not think a mess is  not good but to me a mess is Beautiful. Because a mess is not trying so hard to be what you are not!. A mess you allow who you really are, the good, the scars, your flaws, all of it is on the surface and not hidden by hours of perpetration to look perfect, to look nothing like you! 
So please don't try to change anything about you. You are exactly the person God made you to be!
If someone does not like you because of your outer appearance well that is their loss and their cross to carry! Because to judge someone's outer appearance you miss the once in a lifetime chance of meeting a truly amazing person!
You are Beautiful, true Beauty resides within and glows through you So magnificently. Be you! Let your flaws shine through and do not try to hide them! They make you the incredibly, unique person that you are!
You are Enough! You Are Loved! You do matter! You are a hidden ruby in a valley of stones! Embrace your beauty and once you do you will be free, you will be  truly You!

To Belong is to not Belong

To truly belong is to have the confidence in yourself and in God to be able to stand apart from the crowd on your own and have supernatural peace and be ok.
To truly Belong is to have your own mind, your own words, and be bold enough to stand up, even just in prayer, to stand up against that which you see is wrong.
To truly belong is not to act like the crowd, it is to have your own identity, actions, words and not allow the pressure from others to even penetrate your heart.
To truly belong is to refuse to be anybody or do anything other than what God created you to be and do only that which God asks you to do and not do something just because it was suggested by the crowd.
To truly Belong is to not want to belong at all! 
Because once you settle within yourself it's ok to not Belong then you will discover what it means to be one with Christ. 
When you belong in a crowd you mirror the crowd you are with! You act like the crowd, dress like the crowd, talk like them and even pray like them.
So when you don't belong to a crowd you then are able to hear God for yourself and not through others! You are able to pray your own words and your own way! 
You can talk to God about your problems and issues instead of others! 
You are sharing more intimacy, loving talks and prayers, with the One who loved you first! 
That to me is the greatest belonging ever! Being one with God💜

I Am Free Because Jesus Never Gave Up On Me

For years I thought I did not matter to anyone. For years I thought I would forever be alone to walk this path. For years I thought that all that bad things that happened to me was my fought for things I had done. For years I thought I was unloveable and never would be loved.
Then....
I allowed myself by the strength of God to let go of the pain! 
I gave myself permission to love again after the redemptive power of God freed me. 
I regained the confidence and courage to let go of my past and to ignore the lies of the enemy when the Holy Spirit set me ablaze with the Truth of who I am in Christ.
Once I forgave myself for all I had done...I was then able to let people in without fear of being hurt. 
Once I chose to live I died to who I was and I became the Warrior I was created to be.
Once I surrendered my fear, I was able to face this world with my head held high with Love surrounding me and Faith guiding me.
I am alive and I am free all because Jesus Never gave up on me!

Never Ever Politically Correct

I am not and never will be politically correct. I see it everyday all day and it's sad. 
Even some people I look up to are politically correct. Sad! 
I have heard sermons watered down so that they are politically correct. When did we start worrying about what the world thought and stop sharing the Truth no matter who may get offended it doesn't matter. Their offense is conviction deep within. 
To truly love the  loveless and share hope with the hopeless you have to be real and honest and share what God says to you and not worry about if you offend them because through that offense you may be used by God to save a life. 
I promise you if God gives you something to share and you boldly stand up for what is right and don't walk on egg shells trying to please all those around you... God will honor your obedience! And you will see the growth you have been praying for in your life, ministry, job, in yourself. MP

Share Life by Sharing Your Story

I cam firmly say that I believe with every ounce of my being that if we want to reach this generation we have to be real and honest and share our love stories, testimonies boldly and without shame but full of courage! 
Yes church is good Ofcourse it is! It's a place of equipping and being fed and encouraged but to reach the masses we have to come out of the four walls and start telling people what all God has done in your life!
This generation is so blind sided but so much fake and so much that is pushed on them from TV and music that if we are to be witnesses to them we have to be real and translucent because they can spot fake a mile off!
Don't go at them telling them what they did or are doing that is wrong! They know that! Come at them with love and tell them about when you were in the pit of the enemy's embrace and what God did to bring you out! Tell them what all you have done wrong and areas in your life you are still struggling! 
Do not push the Bible down their throats or they will run so fast into the worlds embrace! There is a time and a place for opening their hearts first then come at them with what the scripture says. Because when their hearts are open by your Realness they are then open to receive what the Word of God says.
By you sharing what God has done in your life you are being the Word of God, the very breath of life of God is coming through you to them.
Be love and be real and let them know they do matter and they are loved!
You will reach the masses with love or you will drive the masses away with religious judgment.

Through Your Obedience There is Restoration and Healing

When God tells you to do something or go somewhere It does not matter if you have to do it kicking and screaming all the way there you still have to do it! It does not matter if it means you have to walk into a room surrounded by people who don't like you..you still have to do it! 
Because first of all God asking you to do anything I think is an honor you know. Because if he didn't trust you to do what He has asked you to do and you see it out to fulfillment then He would  not have asked you! Think about it the God of the universe has asked you to do something for Him that is so Amazing;)
Secondly you have to do what God asked you to do because it's not about you, nothing is about you! It's about who God is going to reach through you! It's about bringing Glory to God through acts of Obedience and love! Healing will come to you! Restoration will come to you! Blessings will come to you through your obedience! 
God would never ever ask you to do something without being right beside you as you are doing it! 
You are covered, protected, anointed and called to do what God asks you to do!
Be Brave even if  your shaking like a leaf Be brave! God has you and loves you so! Be Blessed!

Confidence is Key to Succeed

Confidence in yourself is so vital! When you believe in yourself and have confidence that you are who God says you are and you can do what God says you can do then you will overcome the obstacles that are placed before you! 
This starts by having confidence and believing that you are a Child of God and you are not who you use to be but are a new creation created by love to succeed and be all God knows that you can be! 
You have a cloud of witnesses that have gone on before you cheering you on each step of the way.
Most importantly you have a father in Heaven who is your biggest fan and believes in you and knows that you are a magnificent creation placed exactly where you are to Rise above and beyond all earthly expectation because you are bound for greatness if you just Believe!

The Most Beautiful Sight

There is something so beautiful about a woman in love. 
I think she shines a little brighter so full of glee and aww. I have noticed that my whole life. When a woman just gives birth or just gets married she is so beautiful with the glory of love washed all over her. 
However something even more beautiful than that is when you see someone first become free from the chains of sin or free from whatever darkness has kept them prisoner and they become free because they have encountered true love! 
True pure love that always sets the captives free! 
They are glistening and so beautiful with the glorious love light of God shining through. 
That to me is the most beautiful thing in the world. When the Heavens open up and rejoice at the rebirth of the Lords beloved!

You Are Qualified

Love this so true! 
God promotes from the pit because we who have been in the pit know the True meaning of death, love, forgiveness, life, what it means to have nothing and be so surrounded by darkness and then the marvelous beautiful love light of God shows up and we are never the same! 
We know what it is like to have people, everywhere, to look at you in disgust and they are suppose to be loving you and guiding you.
We have learned by the hurt we have received how to not treat people! 
We have seen first hand that the depths of the love and grace of God is so consuming that no power in hell can come against it.
We know that to love means to never give up on that person because God never gave up on us. 
We know first hand that the ruler of darkness is real because we have been his puppet for many years in the past. We do not back down from the evil but rise up against it!
We don't judge by a persons looks, who cares what a person looks like! We have slept on the streets with the homeless and we have ate at the tables of what this world calls "mighty" and we would any day chose the homeless over the mighty because they are real and true and not materialistic or fake! 
We do not go by any religious or charismatic way of Christianity! Oh No, we are totally out of the box and Love with the Love of Christ and are led by Jesus and not man made doctrine! But by His word and His Holy Spirit! 
We can go into the dark places that others are afraid to go because we have Been there already in our lives and this time we are carrying the light of God with us to reach those amazing precious ones waiting for love.
So yes the pit to some is scary to
Others it is the place that we began to live! 
Where Jesus reached down and pulled us out of the darkness and raised them up for such a time as this!

We are equal as long as love is the goal

We all Tend to look at "Leaders" and "Pastors" in any form and put them on a pedestal and we should never do that! 
We in essence put them in the place of God because we feel inferior to them. But we are not inferior at all to them. They are just people same as you and me no better, no worse who answered the call of God! 
Yes I agree there are some that are not working out of the Love of God and want all the spotlight for them and that is between them and God.
But there are those, very few I have met, that are true blue sold
Out on fire for God and so selfless. I admire them. I do not place them on a pedestal but I do admire and respect the Jesus that is so clearly in them. 
So test the spirits as Jesus says and He will never leave you astray! Do not back down from what you believe and what you know God is showing you about people! Even if that means your alone for a season that's ok because the greatness that is ahead because of your faithfulness makes it all worth it!

Rest Day

We are all trying to make it in this world. Just trying to live everyday and be all we can be and sometimes, somedays, I know I do not feel like being anything but a couch person with a big bag of chips and some lovey dovey chic flicks all day!!;)
And see that is ok! We all have to have a day where we do nothing but just relax and just be and if not a whole day than half a day atleast. 
I think sometimes we get caught up in the "have to always be doing something" mindset or we will never succeed and that is not true! 
If you are always doing something you will eventually burn out in what ever are of life you are always busy in...every day and every minuet of every day. 
Rather it be work, school, ministry, children, keeping your kids over busy in sports or activities, etc.
Come to me and I will give you Rest.(my own paraphrasing) The Bible tells us to rest because God knows that if we don't we will run on empty and be of no use to him when we are exhausted! 
You can not be everything to everyone all of the time!You are not Superwoman or Superman! 
You have to rest! Revive and Recharge! MP

Home

When you return to a place where you have been hurt and you allow God to use you to speak and show Grace to others that is growth! 
When you return to a place that God just will not allow you to leave. That is called Destiny.
When you return to a place because you have some kind of deep spiritual connection that you can not explain that is Home.
When you return to a place because your hunger for Jesus and your need to be loved is stronger than your offense that is Freedom!
