your hair isn’t done.
can’t get out of bed.
crying sporadically.
ᴍᴇssʏ.
this is the part where you run from God; this is the part where you run towards God — as fast as you can.

Because just like life has beautiful moments there are times when life gets messy. Times where you feel like you can’t put into words how you feel or what’s going on. Times when you don’t want to pray + be strong.
This scripture is the cry of my heart bc I’ve realized its not about my circumstances, it’s about being able to depend on a God who will continually renew my perspective💭

one thing i can promise — ʟɪғᴇ ᴡɪʟʟ ɢᴇᴛ ᴍᴇssʏ. the first thing i will say is to understand that it will happen. it just comes with breathing lol
i will admit though, when the mess is ɪɴsɪᴅᴇ, you have to work fast before you go into what i like to call a downward spiral.
what i do is i’ll write a letter to myself expressing what i’m thinking but i’ll also try to console myself in the letter too lol i also write really dramatic lists. “things i won’t allow in my life anymore” “words that i won’t ever say again” “feelings that i want to get rid of” or “feelings i want to feel more of”
something about writing it down makes it final, it gives me comfort + stability in a messy time.

I was at a point of the downward spiral and God said to me very clearly you can either choose to get up or continue to go down. I said well thanks sir for your compassion lol but then I realized the truth of that statement, mess is a part of life but there’s also a choice to continue to give it your energy or to place it on other beneficial things.
I love to listen to worship music w/e I find myself in one of these seasons because it reminds me of the truth. I serve a God who loves me and there’s nothing that can take that away from me. Worship is a place of escape, a place where I can give + receive love freely, despite how I feel or what’s going on around me.
Life can be heavy at times so I like to challenge myself to take out time to do things that I enjoy, whether its watching my favorite movie or indulging in a self care activity. These things help to relax and clear my mind.
and the saints said… AMEN😩
i always thought this expression was funny, but life has a way of teaching you.
i’m a mess sometimes.
you’re a mess sometimes.
did you know that God loves you just the same, if not more, on your messy days?
He wants to help you clean up. invite Him in🧹
