Motivation Monday: Better From Your Past.

Hey girls!!! Today, I want you to think about who you were about this time last year...
Were you better than you are now? Were you worst than you are now? Or, are you the same? I want you to really think & if you have said "yes" to any of those, this is for you.

If you said "yes" to the first question, I want you to know that it's time to find that person again. It's time for you to let go of whatever that caused you to get on the wrong track. That boy, those friends, whatever it is DROP IT! Think back on the joy that you used to have. Think about the structure that your life used to have. Don't you miss that? Let all of that motivate you to get back on track & be better! It's never too late to do right. With God, there is always hope! You can do it!

If you said "yes" to question number two, then don't think that you are good. You never know when you could slip back into your old ways so stay grounded. There is always room for improvement, so pray & ask God what you could do that would help you become better than you are right now! Don't ever settle. I applaud you for taking a step with God & making that change. Do it again, but this time to get better. Let that good you motivate you to become a BETTER you. There is more that God has for you.

Now, if you said "yes" that you were the same, I'm telling you just like I said before, it's time for a change. If you were good last year & you're the good now, let me motivate you to be BETTER! Good isn't good enough when God has far better!
If you were in a mess last year & you're still the same, let me ask you this: when will you give it up & let God have control of your life? Aren't you tired of failing? Are you tired of having bad things happen to you? Don't hold on to your past, but give it to Jesus. He wants to change you & mold you into a beautiful, strong young lady. Will you be willing to change?

I am better off now than I was a year ago. I mean God has changed me from top to bottom, but I have to always make sure that I'm praying so that I won't slip back into my old ways. Every time I think about going back, God reminds me how broken and messed up I was & that motivates me to keep going & to NEVER look back.

God just wants us to have that absolute best that only He can give us. Let's not ever be the same, or ever get comfortable with being just ok. Each year we should become stronger & our relationships with God should be better. I'm taking the step to be better than who I was. Will you join me?

Love you,
