Dear Me,
I forgive you! Thank you for overcoming everything that you have been through throughout your life and here most recently.
There were a couple of things that 2019 brought that caused you not to know which way your life was going. It was truly an emotional roller coaster. Instances of betrayal, hurt, heart-break, loss, and confusion that rocked your core. Some instances could have been prevented; others were the inevitable. Good and bad times, sad and happy times, alone and dark times, while some sunny and bright. Through it all, you made it. I am so proud of you! Thank you for handling things with class and bowing out at times with grace. Through your surrendering, God pulled you through. He forgives you and I do to!
You made poor decisions. You compared yourself to others. You refused to believe your worth. You lost confidence. You lacked faith at times and took matters into your own hands. You idolized other people and things. You sinned and fell short. You lied to yourself and made excuses. You got caught up and let your emotions get the best of you. Though most you are not proud of, it’s now a part of your truth.
Now that you know better, you will do better. Now that things have gone very wrong, you will make them right. Now that you have loved and lost, you will love again. Now that you have been to the bottom, you will rise to the top. Now that you have seen your worst days, better days are here to stay. Now that you have been “there”, you have overcome. Now that you have been healed and made whole, life and love bring new meaning.
Tiffany, you are truly amazing! And regardless if anyone ever tells you how amazing you are, God already has. Your confidence and validation come from Him and no one else! You are who you are and who God has created. Yes, you are different from others. No matter who ridicules you or makes fun or even uses it against you, God has made you unique. Know it and Embrace it!
There will be people who will never understand or even accept you. They will never value or respect you. But that’s okay because God’s word says, love them anyway. However, always establish boundaries that keep people from stealing, killing, and destroying your peace and joy and distracting you from your purpose.
Refer to God’s word as you love others. Let Him be your vindicator. Seek Him first in all things. Be in a surrendered and submitted posture to His Will. Your life will continue to be blessed and fulfilled. Your boys will be blessed and grow and mature into great men of God. You will be favored in all circumstances. Your purpose will make people’s lives better. Your light will shine bright. You will win and Christ will prevail!
Get ready for all that God has planned for your life. Remember to count the good and the bad, all joy! He has called you to a specific purpose and you will be used in a mighty way. Share your story to help others. Show them that they too, can win despite life’s unfortunate circumstances. Live in faith and not in fear!
Not another person will use, abuse, or take advantage of you. You will be bold enough to allow “no” to be a complete sentence. Embrace your worth and know that you are good enough, you don’t have to prove it to anyone. People will already see how special and great you are. Stay true to that and to who He has made you.
Love yourself unconditional, kissing every flaw and scar that you have. Know that comparison robs you of your peace and joy, so don’t do it! Do what you feel to enhance your beauty and become a better you, but check your motives. Never make any life altering decision or change to your body to please others. Remember that YOU ARE ENOUGH! Stay in a surrendered and submitted posture. Seek Him first. Love and help others. Have faith. Trust the process. Know that what God has for you, it is for you!
Be beautiful. Be graceful. Be bold. Be classy. Be a lady. Be courageous. Be patient. Be kind. Be careful. Be strong…..Be You! You are an amazing woman of God, with many wonderful qualities and characteristics. You have done your very best by others, even in the worst of circumstances. Now it’s your turn and God has the unthinkable in store. Be ready! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS!
Blessings,
Me
