The Flower Girl Era

Flower girls are a sign of innocence, beauty, softness. They make way for the bride. They call all attention to them. I am a Flower Girl. I come with intention, I flow softly, I entertain the crowds.

Now , before you cancel me out just listen…

I have spent so much of my life trying to force situations, losing myself and pleasing others that it feels good to adjust my focus more onto myself. I am declaring that I won’t continue with anything that drains me. Instead, I am walking into my next year peacefully.

My scripture for year 33 is:

”I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”“

‭‭John‬ ‭16‬:‭33‬ ‭ESV‬‬

It doesn’t what the enemy attempts to throw at me … God has already overcome it. Anxiety. Depression. Self Confidence. Financial Freedom…

Conquered. Conquered. Conquered.

We just have to get into position and do the work.

For my birthday this year, I declared I was going to have a change of mind. I decided from now going forward I would no longer live a life of struggle. When I bought this dress for my birthday dinner, I chuckled to myself and said that I was going into my “flower girl era”. This is an era of softness that I haven’t know.

If it throws my nervous system into survival mode, it is not for me. Period !

I had not told anyone this was my goal . My best friend did not know that I had my heart set on living innocently, joyfully, softly like a flower girl when she asked everyone to bring me flowers to dinner. Talk about a God moment. It was such a confirmation.

I can work hard without fighting hard. I can love hard without having my heartbroken. I can chase after my dreams and goals, peacefully, intently and with joy. & that’s what I am going to do. I hope the same for every woman.

That is what 33 looks like for me.
