On the other side of the door.

Me: I’m afraid to open you. 🚪

🚪 Door: Why?

Me: I don’t know what I shall find on the other side.

🚪 Door: Open me and see.

Me: K.

I am ready to see what’s on the other side of the door. How about you?

Note: There is sooooooooooooooooooo much joy, beloveds, waiting on the other side of fear. How do I know? I had to go through a ton of fear, open the door, and experience awesome joy, on the other side…..yyyyyaaaaasssssssssssssss!!

Time to tackle your what have you on the other side of the door….

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

Heart check Friday on a Thursday.

How is your heart, beloveds?

Just checking on YOU. I hate that you don’t take enough time to be about being about it for YOU. So, God has sent me along to bug you, er, send some love and care your way.

How is YOUR heart? Tell the truth. If you are tired, say so. Then, give yourself permission to REST. I promise the world will be there when you get back. I think…lol!

I am bellowing ‘We Are The World’ at the top of my lungs. Okay, in my head but still….((((hugs everyone))))))))))))).

Ah, beloveds, you are loved. You are. For God so loved the world….((((((((((((hugs everyone))))))).

I grieve and pray for a world that is sooooooooo hurting it is forever hurting everything and everyone in it’s path.

I weary of the election season. Every four years, division/hate and awful rhethoric are tossed around in every corner of America and the world.

Ah, beloveds, that we all rose, in unison, to declare ENOUGH!

Let it begin with me:

I love you.

I care deeply for you life.

I pray for you.

I hope for the best for you and yours.

I root for you.

I cheer for you.

Who is with me?

How is your heart?

Note: Life is short. Let’s love one another, eh?

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

Persevere.

Persevere.

Quitting is NEVER an option, beloveds. Rest as needed. Then, get on back up and keep moving. FORWARD. Ever forward.

Persevere.

Fight through your fear of the unknown. Press through unbelief. Keep throwing haymakers at all that is troubling you.

Persevere.

We shall NEVER relent, beloveds. Life is much too short to be giving up on ourselves, eh? We got thangs to do.

Let’s keep on being about being about it.

Time to rise.

Get up, beloveds.

Time to rise.

Time to snatch victory, from the jaws of defeat.

Time to shine a light.

Time to uplift someone. Starting with YOU.

Time to rise.

Time to draw YOUR line in the sand!

Time to rise and live your life YOUR way. Fear not. Okay, be afraid but live anywho.

Time to rise.

It’s time for us to win some of these trials/tests, eh?

Short of that, it’s time we stop running from hard and start giving our troubles a hard time!

Lettttttt’s goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Note: Look up. What the hell you doing forever looking down, beloveds? Nothing down there but the stupid enemy who is supposed to be underneath our feet!!!!! For the unbelievers who don’t know what I am talking about, keep on believing and moving forward. Yall will catch up in a minute…..hahahahahahahahahaha!…..((((((hugs everyone)))))))

One step.

At your worst, do your best.

When you are feeling your worst.

Do your best.

When you feel as though you have nothing worth giving.

Give your best.

When your love feels inadequate.

Love the most.

We won’t always feel like it. We won’t always know what to say or how to say things. We won’t always know what to do. We won’t always feel like doing what needs to be done.

I feel like crap. A cold, or something, snuck into bed with me. Leaving me hot, listless and grumpy.

I did NOT feel like looking after myself. I made myself get up and look after myself. I ordered soup, orange juice and 😷 medicine.

When life is acting all lifery, beloveds, it’s super important to be good to yourself. Get up. Do what needs to be done.

Tell discouragement to kick rocks. I feel like a sick, old lady…lol. Still, I am worth loving. I am loving me.

Stop waiting for folk to love you. Love yourself NOW. Just as you are. Sick. Well. Young. Old. Rich. Broke. You are worth loving simply because you were born.

Don’t look back.

Don’t look back.

Keep looking forward.

Keep looking forward to all life has in store for you.

You got this.

Keep on doing this thing called life, beloveds.

You CAN win. So long as you don’t quit.

You are much further along than you know.

Just keep stacking the days. Just keep on motivating yourself whether you feel like it or not. Just keep allowing your good habits to drag you out of bed each day.

We got this, beloveds! We do.

YYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!

Be optimistic. Any old anybody can be a pessimist. The world is full of them. Have courage. Be one of the rare souls who refuse embrace gloom and doom.

We got this, yall!

Let’s gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

You will never know, unless you try.

What if you tried, and succeeded?

What then?

You will never know, unless you try.

Are you ready to find out, beloveds?

I know I am.

Here goes nothing.

Who is going to try with me?

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: We do too many things based on what others think we should do. Time out for that, beloveds. Time for us to do things because WE choose to. Because WE want to. Because WE need to.

Expectations can kick rocks. Yes, we shall ALWAYS expect the best effort for/from ourselves. That said, we shall try. We shall give our all. We shall act based upon the current knowledge we have.

Then, we shall:

Wait.

Trust.

Rejoice.

Wait, for the outcome.

Trust, the outcome WILL work for our good.

Rejoice, KNOWING that NO weapon formed against us shall prosper. Don’t get on me for saying that, beloveds. The bible says so. I believe Him. Settles thangs for me.

Keep on moving forward. Why? Cuz we got thangs to do. Let’s go!!!!

One step.

One step.

One step.

You are loved.

You are NOT alone.

Keep on being…YOU!

Faith: What are you standing on?

I am standing on business!

I am standing on FAITH!

I am finished with standing on lack. Get gone, lack! You lack interest for me. I ain’t got time/room for you, in my life no mo’!

Be gone!

After the tornado, I had to decide what I was going to rebuild upon. I chose faith. I chose hope. I chose love. I chose God. I chose belief. I chose ME.

Life is forever forcing us to make choices.

What do you choose, beloveds?

What do you CHOOSE to stand on? You can’t blame what happens. What happens, shall happen. What you CHOOSE to DO/HAVE/BE after, is completely up to you.

What say you?

asking for A Friend,

Cassandra

#YourLifeMattersToMe

Note: I am standing on faith. Finally. Absolutely. Without fear. Without apology. I root for you as you decide to do the same. In the meantime, take another step. In case no one has told you yet today: I love you. So does He.
