I Thought Leaving Would Feel Like Freedom.

  After a month, everything seems so normal and dull... as if nothing ever happened. I am happy, but I feel empty. I waited for this for the longest time... three years and counting. I honestly did not like how I left things. It felt rushed. It felt sad. And honestly, if I could go back in time... I would probably do it the same way. I can't help but blame myself for leaving a toxic environment. I was suffering. Scars have been drawn on my body. Unwanted habits have now become normal for me. I feel restless. I am exhausted. I am tired, yet I feel like I don't deserve sleep. Why, though? I only left because I was tired of being exploited. I want to be selfish. I want to put myself first. I have been nothing but a dirty doormat. My mind, soul, and body crave peace and sleep, but I feel like the moment I lay down, I will fall behind. Am I over exaggerating my grief? Or am I trying to convince myself that leaving was the wrong step? I feel lonely. I don't crave people to intera...

I Thought Being Soft Made Weak: Then I Read These Verses

-

Lately, I’ve just been tired. Tired of trying to do everything on my own.

 Tired of carrying the weight of life with my own strength. And I know I’m supposed to lean on God, not myself, but it’s so easy to forget.

I didn’t open my Bible today to be “productive” or “spiritual.” 

I just needed something real. I needed comfort. I needed to hear from God.

And for a moment, I felt bad like I only run to Him when I’m hurting. 

But then I realized… maybe even that guilt is His gentle way of calling me back.

 Of whispering, “It’s okay. Just come sit with Me.”

So, I read. And these verses softened me.

 They reminded me that being soft isn’t weak,

 it’s actually where I find His strength the most.


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Romans 8:18

The pain you've been feeling cannot compare to the joy coming ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Isaiah 30:18 

God's plan is worth the wait ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Habakkuk 2:3

There will come a time when your tears will fall, not because of your troubles...but because God has answered your prayers ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Isaiah 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you. Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you with my righteous right hand ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: 2 Corinthians 5:7 

For we live by faith not by sight ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Matthew 19:26

With God all things are possible ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Isaiah 60:22

When the time is right, I the lord will make it happen ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Psalm 37: 4-5

Take delight in the Lord and he will give you your heart desire. Commit everything you do to the Lord, trust him and he will help you ♡


 ๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Galatians 1:10

Obviously, I'm not trying to win the approval of people,but of God. If pleasing people were my goal. I would not be Christ servant ♡


๐Ÿ“–✝️๐Ÿ’™: Revelation 3:8

I have place before you an open door that no one can shut ♡

If you’re tired too… if you’re doubting, overthinking, or just quietly hurting.

 I hope one of these verses touches your heart the way they touched mine.


All is well, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now. 

And if any of the verses sparked something in you, I’d love for you to share your favorite in the comments below ๐Ÿ’Œ

Let’s keep softening together๐Ÿ’– one scripture at a time๐Ÿ“–✝️♥️.

I Am Just A Girl ♡

  I’m just a girl. A girl who dreams, who screenshots dresses she can’t afford yet๐Ÿคง,  who wishes her life looked like her Pinterest board❤️‍๐Ÿฉน.  A girl who prays for better days and sometimes thinks the universe is taking too long๐Ÿฅฒ❤️‍๐Ÿฉน. But here’s what I’m learning: wishing is pretty, but work is powerful.  The life I want isn’t waiting at the end of a shooting star, it’s hidden in the little things I do daily๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ’–.  The discipline. The risks. The showing up when it feels awkward๐Ÿ‘€❤️‍๐Ÿฉน. I’m just a girl, but I refuse to be ‘just.’ I refuse to live only in daydreams๐Ÿซ .  I want my reality to catch up to my imagination. So I don’t just wish for it I work for it๐Ÿคง. And maybe one day, I’ll look back and realize the girl who once only wished… actually built the life she prayed for. Piece by piece, softly but surely.๐Ÿ˜š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’– #xoxo๐Ÿ’‹๐ŸŽ€๐Ÿ’– #babysteps๐ŸŽ€ #deluluvibs❤️

When Womanhood Becomes A Joke: This Era Makes Me Sick ♡

I don’t even know where to start ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’”. So, I just went on Instagram after a whole week of not touching the app.  All I wanted was to watch some quality, relatable, funny reels๐Ÿฅฒ๐Ÿ’”… and instead,  I got bombarded with nothing but hypersexualized content ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ’”. I’m not gonna lie  it’s seriously disgusting and repulsive ๐Ÿคข. So goddamn annoying๐Ÿคฌ.  I can’t even fully put into words the disgust and shame I feel when I see that type of content.  Watching a bunch of grown-ass women shaking their  booties and milk makers around like it’s nothing … it’s beyond disturbing ๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿšซ. I hate how social media and honestly,  this whole current era is encouraging people to show up half-naked, wearing the most unbelievably questionable outfits๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”.  And as a girl, as a woman, I find it very, very, very, veeeeeeeerrrrry disturbing ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ˜ญ.  Like… what kind of sick minded woke people are breathing the same air as me? Sometimes I wonder… when these women were kids, d...
