Still a newborn, my blog is beginning to blossom! Still trying to figure out how to let it flow, I think I have it now. As well as offering tips and useful products for skin care, I thought I would share an inspirational piece with you once a week. Nothing is better for the body than to feel good on the inside.
God has blessed me to experience many things, have many opportunities, be surrounded by loving friends and family, and to become the woman I am today. In my early twenties', I was having a hard time "finding myself". I didn't know what made me happy, didn't know where in life I was going, strayed away from Him and thought I could figure things out on my own. I mean I was going to church, but I wasn't "there". I had become complacent in my job, my relationship, being at home, yet I was still unsettled. I put on a mask everyday and wore it for the world to see. I kept the outside looking good, but on the inside I was so empty and confused. I know I needed to pull away from some things to see what God had in store for me. Afraid to "break away" from it, I stayed in this state of complacency. One day, something happened and my life changed forever. People say God has a way of showing up when you move away from Him and trust me HE SHOWS UP!! I was hit with unbelievable news and felt a pain that I would never wish on my worst enemy. Needless to say, when I went through I called on God to take the pain away and to develop a stronger relationship with him. After a few weeks, I began to feel better and felt a new life slowing breathing into my body ( I call it C.P.R - lol). I started weighing my career options, stepped away from my relationship, and started thinking about places to live. Slowly, but surely things began to change for me and I felt God there every moment. Now 3 years later, I must say I feel like a totally different woman than I was then. I still have some moments (which I call being human), however, my outlook on life has changed and I owe it all to Him. Because of Him, I have a vision for my life and because of Him I can sit here and write this blog and hopefully be a blessing to someone needing help on the outside and inside. I am glowing and I wanna say I owe Him all the "GLOW"-RY"!!!!!!!!
Tip of the day: Rejoice even when you are going through because when you get to the top of the mountain and look down, there is a huge blessing on the other side. The key is to keep climbing even when it seems to hard; just remember what's on the other side.

I love it! It is so true that you have to give God the glory even when things are not going your way. M.C. Hammer's wife does something called "Miracle Monday" when she asks what miracle have you experienced for the day. One day her miracle was simply being blessed to wake up. We always forget to bless God for the little things that we take for granted. Amen!
