Find more energy with these 3 hacks:(these are the practical tips)

1. Drink more water and eat less sugar- seems obvious but it needs to be said! We drink all kinds of crazy things throughout our day but water is so Which brings me to my next point...
2. GET REST! Maybe this doesn’t mean more sleep cause we are all in different points of our lives and sometimes sleep can’t happen(cause of work a new baby!) BUT you CAN force yourself to get rest. And usually rest helps you get more time with JESUS which in turn will give you ALL the energy you need!!
3. Exercise! This does NOT need to be excessive or lengthy. BUT exercise is linked to increased energy and improved sleep! There are many benefits to exercise but since we’re talking about energy

Scripture to encourage!!
1 Corinthians 10:31- So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God

Romans 12:1-2- I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

1 Corinthians 6:20- For you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

Ephesians 5:29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church

Romans 12:1- I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

Proverbs 23:20-21- Do not join those who drink too much win or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags.

1)Worship
If you’ve been around awhile you know how much I love to connect to God through worship. I love praising Him and I love music. So it’s the perfect way for me to connect. I remember when I was doing counseling a few years ago the counselor asked what a favorite memory I had from growing up that made me feel like me. I can’t remember his exact question but it was around that lol The first thing that came to mind was me sitting in the living room next to the record player, just laying and listening to music and singing along. In that moment remembering back it was a place to feel refreshed, regenerated and peaceful just sitting and listening to music. I believe that God put that hunger for music in my heart at a young age.

It makes me think about how important music is to all of us though. Music sort of transports you. I can hear a song and it takes me to a certain memory or time in my life... have you ever experienced this?

I believe this is because we were created to worship. We were created to bring praise to God not only through our living but in songs!
My challenge for you is this, next time you are at church during the owrship time or at home listening to worship, don’t just sing along. Don’t just go through the ‘motions’ of singing and watching who is on the stage( and I don’t say this to judge...I have a hard time not doing this because all of the ‘stage’ stuff is interesting to me so I can easily be distracted by it sometimes!) I say this to encourage you to go deeper with God during your times of worship. Don’t let anything distract you from His presence. Ask Him how you can know Him more during those times and ask for Him to speak to you during those moments! He says ask and receive so go ahead and ask!! I know that you will begin to hear Him clearer and know Him more through this!
2) God's word
I can’t say this enough. Reading the Bible is so important for your growth, for relationship with God and literally for sustaining every day life.

I was telling my tribe girls the other day that it’s like getting hangry. If we don’t stay connected with Him we can get spiritually hangry and then we CANNOT walk in the goodness of God or the His power OR be used for His glory ie walking in His purposes.

I know that for me I am not a nice person when I’m hangry...and it can be pretty bad when I realize that I”m spiritually hangry lol

Reading our bible is our spiritual food. When you don’t eat you will get hungry. And when you are hungry you can’t move in the overflow.

1. Believe God is in the waiting

Waiting is the worst, waiting in line, waiting for food(i get hangry), waiting in the carpool, waiting for the right timing...i’m actually terrible at waiting. I get so impatient...it’s something I’m constantly working on!(I’m an impatient driver and I dont even know why...like I’m just in a hurry so I get frustrated on the road...)

How many of you have been in a waiting season before? Waiting is no bueno. It’s difficult. And frustrating. We are used to things fast. Fast food. Fast internet. Fast travel. A microwave culture.

We live in a busy busy busy culture. If we aren’t busy, then we aren’t productive. If we aren’t productive than we aren’t fulfilling our purpose. If we aren’t fulfilling our purpose we are disappointing someone. IF we are disappointing someone we....were unhappy so what do we do? We pile on more so we can feel good about our accomplishments but in reality we have so much on our plates that we cant keep most of it straight which in turn frustrates us even more....and the cycle continues. Is this just me or does anyone else feel this?

There is something beautiful that happens when we can learn to wait. To stop the hurry and just rest in Him. Allowing Him to speak and lead each moment of our day. We have to SLOW DOWN in order to learn how to properly wait. When we wait and let God do what He needs to do to get us where we need to go, in the right time, with full abandonment...he shows up.

God is in the waiting...just because you are waiting doesn’t mean God has abandoned you. He is still there..teaching us to rest in Him and trust in Him.

Scriptures for when you are in the waiting season!

“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” (Isa. 40:31).

“The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.” (ESV) Lamentations 3:25

“Our soul waits for the Lord; he is our help and our shield. For our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name. Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you.”(ESV) Psalm 33:20-22

“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” (NIV) Exodus 14:14

Be strong beautiful woman of God!!

I'm so sorry friend!! I accidentally uploaded an old episode so the name is wrong and everything in it isn't what is says!!
I just uploaded the new one with the CORRECT info! Check it out as episode 141!!

Connect with me here! Send me a text message!

Ok first let’s start with some scripture on this:

Colossians 3:2 (NIV):

"Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things."

Romans 12:2 (NIV):

"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."

Isaiah 26:3 (NIV):

"You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast because they trust in you."

James 4:7

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

These are just some scripture to get you started. We have the ability through Jesus to have our minds renewed, to resist the enemies lies, to have peace in our minds etc. BUT again it’s THROUGH Jesus that this happens.

It’s through a relationship with Him that we can capture the thoughts and bring them to Him to deal with. Jesus’ death and resurrection gave us access to relationship with the Father but also access to His power. We are stronger than the enemy. We are stronger than anything the world can bring against us...as long as we submit to God and partner with Him.

Hopefully that gives you hope and strength... you have the power through Jesus friend!
Ok here are some things to help you

1. Be aware of your thoughts and thought patterns. When you feel the yucky thoughts coming, pause and bring them to God in prayer. Ask Him for the wisdom and strength to discern the lies from the truth.

James 1:5- If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him
2. Get in your word! When you meditate on scripture and fill your mind with God’s word you can use it to fight the mind battles. There are so many scriptures that can help you replace the icky thoughts with God’s truth!!
3. Speak out God’s truth!
So this is where being aware and shutting it down before you even make the climb to the top of the slide, comes in. Be aware and speak LIFE over yourself. Give your barista body the order or gratitude, joy or peace instead of anger frustration or fear. And then follow it up with speaking out scripture that backs up the feelings you want to be produced in your life!

And ps- it’s ok to feel frustrated or angry. Acknowledge those feelings BUT dont’ let them stay and take over. That is my point. Cause THAT is when we start to take a ride on the crazy slide. So recognize the feelings, give them to the Lord, and speak life over yourself so you can move forward in truth!! Exchanging the lies for truth.

Ok next week will be part two of learning to capture our thoughts so stay tuned!
