Today, I acknowledge...

Dear God:

Today, I acknowledge, 
accept and admit 
that my life is a God-Job, 
and I surrender my life to You.

Today, I surrender fear, 
doubt, worry, anxiety, 
and control.  

Today, I acknowledge, 
accept and admit
 that I cannot fix anyone or anything.

Today, I acknowledge, 
accept and admit 
that I cannot fix, change, 
heal or help myself.

 Today, I acknowledge, 
accept and admit 
that I cannot change anyone or anything.

Today, I acknowledge,
 accept and admit 
that I cannot help anyone. 

Today, I acknowledge, 
accept and admit 
that I cannot control anyone or anything.  

Today, I acknowledge, 
accept and admit 
that I cannot heal anyone or anything.
I am a God-job. My life is a God-job. 
Today, dear God please work on me, in me, through me.  

Work on my life, my relation-ships, 
all of my affairs, on everyone and everything in my life.

Today dear God, 
please have your perfect way with me.  
For I know that the least you can be to me and for me is good.

Now, I let it Be.
For this day I am so very grateful.
Amen

ROOFTOP

After exactly 3 months and 11 days, today I went back up the stairs to the rooftop of the apartment we stay at. Trembling and shaking, I kept taking a step after the next hoping to get to the top. Several times I kept thinking, …why go? …but kept at it regardless. On this rooftop, I had set a very calm meeting place with my Father. For about 3 months leading to the delivery of my darling baby girl, I'd come up here, do some simple workouts but most importantly have a daily tete-a-tete with Him. I couldn't and still can't wrap my head around the fatigue that comes with the 3rd trimester and rightly so, many times I contemplated not going up there. What made me keep up with the routine was the fact that I knew He was waiting for me and was eager to talk about how far and smooth my pregnancy journey was.   We'd talk about my hopes, dreams and plans for baby in my tummy. We'd discuss my maternity leave plans and among other things mostly just sit in the silence of dawn ...

Motivation 2

With this topic, you know the norm right? I share some quotes I've come across that make some sense to me, well, because not all do. Picture quotes are more interesting to look at and so they'll take most space in this particular post. I will be overjoyed is you left a comment, maybe share one quote that keeps you going? Enjoy!  “It's not my responsibility to be beautiful. I'm not alive for that purpose. My existence is not about how desirable you find me." ~Warsan Shire. “Don't assume, ask. Be kind. Tell the truth. Don't say anything you can't stand behind fully. Have integrity. Tell people how you feel.” ~ Warsan Shire. “Perhaps, the problem is not the intensity of your love, but the quality of the people you are loving.”~ Warsan Shire.

The world didn't quite prepare me for the experience that came with this phase of my life. I boast occasionally of how easy it has been for me to grasp and adapt to changes in my life but this one, naah ...I had to readjust, relearn and extensively educate myself. What I'm I talking about, you ask? Motherhood. I am writing this while on my 3rd trimester; 35 weeks & 6 days to be precise. The once subtle baby kicks are now more defined you'd think the baby's made my womb a mixed martial art ring. It feels heavenly every time it happens and I am not joking when I say that I live for them kicks...I could be having a really crappy day but anytime I sit and the kicks intensify, my mood instantly changes!  The reason I started by saying that the world didn't quite prepare me for the journey is because with my many years of schooling and seeking knowledge, I realized that I didn't know much about pregnancy. I was never taught about what to expect in any of the trime...
