Hi guys! Sorry I haven’t been writing in a while. I have been busy trying to focus on myself and grow.

In December I learned a lot. I’ve learned that I feel more free without social media. I’ve learned how to ski and how to bail while skiing, and I’ve learned that no matter how much I give, no amount will ever make the wrong person right for me. I’ve learned to live life to its fullest and to be real. Be in the moment because you will never get it back again. I’ve learned that even when things get tough, it gets better (if you know, you know). I’ve learned to be more positive (even though that is very difficult). And I have learned that who you are and how you act come from who you surround yourself with.

Like most people coming into the new year, I have my own resolutions.

1. To read the bible more. I want to gain a habit of reading daily because I have noticed that I have took a step back.
2. To eat more. As some people know, I don’t eat much and it has been like this for some years now. So my goal with this is to eat 3 nutritious meals a day.
3. Be positive. This is probably what I really need to do. I have a tough time being positive and it really sucks for myself and the people around me. Like I said earlier, I learned to be more positive but I still need to improve on that. With this subject, I learned that positivity is reflected on what you hear and see. So from now on I am going to try to post positive stuff on my instagram and facebook.
4. Live outside of your comfort zone. This is something I REALLY want to do. How do I expect to grow if I don’t get out of my comfort zone. Listen, I’m a reasonably shy person you can say. If you know me well then you might think I am very talkative, but if you don’t then you know my shy side and that is where I am most comfortable. I love to talk but there is a wall that is there and I need to tear it down which is why it is one of my resolutions.
5. Take care of myself. One thing I absolutely love doing is helping others and being a giver. While doing that I forget something. I forget to take care of myself. Even though I love pleasing others and making them happy, I forget to make myself happy and I suffer for that and so do others around me. This year I need to focus on my mental health and being real with everyone.

Starting this year I am in a position where I am waiting for God to open a door. It is tough but I have to be patient. Throughout 2018 I have had many doors open (which is awesome) and many close (which sucks). I know that God is placing the right people into my life and taking the wrong ones away. I cannot fight Him on that. Until God opens the next door, I will be praising Him in the hallway. I hope you can all praise Him in the hallway too.

In the up coming blog posts, I hope to share my journey with God and just with life in general, and I also hope that you guys would join me on this process of growth. I will be praying for you all.

Love,

Emily

“I know what it means to lack, and I know what it means to experience overwhelming abundance. For I’m trained in the secret of overcoming all things, whether in fullness or in hunger. And I find that the strength of Christ’s explosive power infuses me to conquer every difficulty.” -Philippians 4:12-13 tpt
