Chapter 12: My life is no longer the same..here's why 🤍
Hello hello!
How are you? I’m so sorry for not being consistent with my newsletter. I really hope you’ve been doing well. I’m glad to see your response to my past letters. I’ve been on a spiritual journey myself and I’m loving it. I’m trying to do everything intentionally now. I’m still living the same life but with many great changes for my soul. I’m much more at peace and trying to find a rhythm to my new norm.
Here are a few other life updates🗒️
Abby has grown into a fine lady haha! The funniest is when I take her down for a walk and she sees other babies her age, she calls out to them saying “baby” as if she is an adult! Lol, it’s the cutest thing! She is so receptive and so curious!
She is now walking and loves to take us for a walk around the house every time.
Veronica and I have planned our yearly trip and this time we’re going out of the country! It’s been one of our wishes to travel together and see many places around the world. It’s a girl’s trip, so mum, Abby, Vero and I! I’m pretty stoked to be traveling after so long.
Not gonna lie, I’m nervous to be on a plane for 10+ hours with a toddler but we will figure it out!
What’s On My Mind?💭
To be honest, I’ve just been praying for you. I remember you in my prayer, daily. I feel like the youth is very lost. We are in dangerous times.
Health and fitness have hit an all-time low, Social media is fake, music is evil, depression is skyrocketing, and loneliness has taken the driver's seat in everyone’s life…😖
It’s quite chaotic out there.
I often wonder how I can be of help to all of you.
Anyone who meets me for the first time is going to think that I’m weird. I already know that. I do not indulge in anything that most people do and it sets me apart but it also makes me the ‘weird’ chic. Lots of times people think ‘fitting in’ means conforming to worldly desires but I think running away from them as much as possible is the way to maintain your sanity.
I want to encourage you to choose the path of peace. Not happiness, but peace.
You might be in the most difficult storm of your life and that can lead to unhappiness, but you can still have peace in your heart.
How?
Rest in God. Give your burdens to Him.🤍
Very early on this year, I realized that I do not have to carry my worries on my shoulders. Some of us had to grow up too quickly and take on the family burdens, just like I did. I tried to do it all on my own and failed multiple times. I would cry every other night before bed not knowing where my life was headed.
Then I found God, and it changed my life.
I’ve been Christian all this while but it was not until now that I had a relationship with Jesus.
Earlier I followed ‘religion’ that is why I wasn’t fulfilled.
Today I work on building a relationship with God and I understand what it means to fully submit my life to Him. As the months went by I felt my burdens lift off of me.
Trust me when I tell you, I’m in the best phase of my life. To know Jesus is to know peace. He loves you and He sees you. Even if you don’t know Him, He knows you. He is waiting for you every single day.
People ask me, How have you suddenly grown so close to God? Or What happened to you suddenly?
When I realized that Jesus didn’t want me to do a million things to attain his love, my heart softened. His love is not conditional. He doesn’t care about our status, He doesn’t want our money, He ONLY wants our hearts and our time. He is Love. He only wants you to love everyone around you and treat them with utmost kindness.
What a beauty!
So, if you haven’t remembered God in 20+ years old your life, I urge you to remember God and acknowledge Him. Your life will never be the same again. If you haven’t gotten your dream job, if you’re confused about your relationship, if you’ve been single for years, if you have a complicated relationship with your parents, if you want to run away from home and more…Just seek God. Lean on him and He will lift you up in ways you do not know.
Media has been created to distract us from the love of God. It takes all our time away. Put your phone down, close your door, and simply talk to God. He is in your heart.
If you struggle to believe in God, look outside your window for a second, look up…that big blue sky, the rains, the birds in the sky - all of that is creation. Just like every painting has an artist behind it, every car has an engineer behind it, every meal has a chef behind it, and everything on this earth has a Creator behind it. The world is not functioning on its own, there is a Higher power at play. We have to give up this idea that we know everything and we are everything.
Humble yourselves and seek God.
I hope I was able to get through to some of you today. You will be okay. Life is long but it’s temporary. It’s fleeting. Don’t stress yourself with things you cannot and should not control.
