Prayer for the week

 Good morning, kings and queens. How are you? I pray all is well with you. Just know no matter how smooth or how rough the day, God is with you every step of the way. Believe it! My week has been going good for the most part. I am still dealing with some things, but I refuse to let those things still be my peace and

Joy.  I am learning how to stop trying to be in control, learning how to stop coming up with plans a, b, and c. Honestly, it is still a struggle because I like to plan things out and always try my best to control everything that is going on. Transparency: I try to be in control because of the lack of circle support and pride. I have been through many journeys where I asked for help, and I got rejected each time because of the trust I damaged because of my past. I have burned bridges with family, friends, and myself. I take full responsibility for my actions. On the other hand, I wish people would really forgive. We can say we dismiss out of our mouths all day, but we don't really mean it. Trust me, I am speaking on behalf of you as well. Our actions are like I forgive you, but I don't fully trust you, I will never forget what you had done to me, I will never speak to you again, help you out, fill in the blank you already know. I realize I can't change how family, friends, and this world view me and how they treat me. Over and over, I tried to prove to my family and friends that I know I am not perfect and made mistakes; I am taking action steps each day to become the best version of myself. It was pointless because it was heartache, draining, people-pleasing, and depression. God reassured me that he loves me for my mistakes and flaws. He told me to stop doing that and to stop trying to prove my worth to them that I am worthy in his loving arms. He will bring people into my life who will go on this journey with me, know my past, see my flaws and the things I am working on, and help me walk into my purpose that won't disappear. They will be there supporting me from start to finish. I know that I said the blog post would be a prayer. The Holy Spirit was in control of me and this post. There is no topic here in the prayer: Father God, I would like to thank you for the opportunity to see another day and everyone reading this blog and across the world. It is a new day of no regrets, guilt, or shame. It is a beautiful day for a lovely week of opportunities, growth, joy, and abundance. Father, we give you all the praise and honor. We know that you are not done with us. We still have journeys, milestones to reach, lessons to learn, and action steps for our purpose. Father, I pray that you will remove every distraction, including ourselves, so we can hear clearly from you. We are depending on you, God, Jesus, and HS. Help us to push through the uncomfortable seasons and the comfortable seasons. We know that we are way too pleased when we shouldn't be. If we are in the season of being uncomfortable, start that book, work on forgiving ourselves, that person, or those persons, and we should ask for their forgiveness and help us push through it. If it is to start fasting, learning to have patience and self-control helps us. If it is to start having more obedience and not partial obedience, not disobedience, to start working on that business that you want us to have helped us push through it even if it is our first time. We feel like this is our comfort. Be our guide and give us the wisdom. Help us to be more disciplined to rely on you, read the bible or devotionals more, talk to you more, be set apart more, start therapy, and start sacrificing by removing distractions of TV, ourselves, family, and friends so we can start working on healing, growth, work on the things that you want us to work on most importantly to spend time with you, and your sweet presence. Help us to stop trying to fill the void of loneliness, people pleasing, comparison, and the list goes on when you are the High God. I plead the blood of Jesus over our homes, family, friends, jobs, careers, educational system, food, water, and the youth. Father God, the child needs the Kingdom; so much is happening. I pray you will use us to draw the child near the cross. Helps us to be the light that they need. Yahweh, take over, reign over, whatever you want to do, have your way. In Jesus' name, I pray, amen. Have a blessed week until next time, Chosen Princess.
