Have you ever tried to start something new while still holding on to something old? It’s like trying to run a race while dragging a suitcase full of bricks. You might move forward, but every step feels heavier than it should. That’s what it’s like when we drag old baggage into a new season. I’ve learned — sometimes the hard way — that you can’t enter a new chapter if your heart is still stuck in the old one. Maybe it’s a hurt that never healed, a betrayal that still stings, a disappointment that keeps replaying in your mind, or even guilt from a decision you wish you could redo. Whatever it is, carrying it around doesn’t make you stronger —...
Trish M Quote- "Pride will block your blessings. Stay humble, stay elevated. #HumilityWins." Pride is a BEAST! It can take over and bring destruction in a heartbeat. It will cause division, strife, malice and contention. Pride can cause you to lose the best thing that ever happened to you. It can also cause you to lose the best person that was for you. Not just romantically, but there are people that God will divinely connect you with for the prosperity of your soul- mind, will, intellect, emotions, spiritual well-being, etc. God tells us in His word that He will bring those that miss it because of their pride... He will bring them to a great fall. They will come...
Trish M Quote- "You can't serve two masters. Choose whom you will serve. #AllInForGod" Have you ever gotten so caught up in the "doing" or the "being" that it's hard to make time for God? No seriously. I need you to think about it. Have you really given God genuine time in worship, praise, studying the Word, prayer, etc.? That means that you are intentionally isolating time out of your day to be alone with the Lord, to simply be in His presence. This is not condemnation. It's simply conviction. Conviction to help us do better and be better for God's glory. We get so caught up in the busyness of life, that we don't even realize that we...
Trish M Quote- "Every attack isn’t from the devil. Some are lessons for growth. #Discernment" Have you ever been in a season where you don't understand what God is doing? Have you ever wondered why God allows certain things to happen in your life? If you answered "yes", believe me, you're not the first and certainly NOT the last! God allows trials, tribulations, and situations for a reason. Though we may not understand them, those things that come up in your life truly have a purpose. Sometimes, it takes a minute to figure it out, but eventually you will realize the "why" behind what God is doing. Here are a few things that I have learned: 1. God Uses...
Trish M Quote- "You can't fight spiritual battles with carnal weapons. Pray first. #SpiritualWarfare" 2 Corinthians 10:3–4 (NIV): “For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world.” Ephesians 6:12: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against rulers, authorities, powers of this dark world and spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Could it be that you're fighting the wrong way? Could it be that you are handling the situation or the person(s) wrong? I totally get the frustration. I get the anger. I get that you are just tired. I get it. But have you ever...
