Hi Lovelies....
Yea so accountability moment: I am not the best blogger. *side eye* I know Captain Obvious right. Well I swear I really want to do better. Last time I fell off I swore it was going to stick, I had intertwined all my social media accounts and I had planned post to carry out each week. Then ...NOTHING ...
All I can say is that life sometimes gets in the way, sometimes everything that you enjoy and bring you peace has to take a back seat to just making it. Life just got in the way and I had to step away again. Thankfully I made it past all that and now I'm getting back to all things good and happy making. I'm officially one of those POSITIVE VIBES ONLY people, like I'm so into peace and peace-making things its crazy. But speaking of that let me tell you about one of my peace-making routines: Quiet Time. Thank you so much to all of y'all for your continued patients with me as I try to get a handle on this whole blogging thing and I'm so excited to see where this blogging journey will take me now. I hope y'all will stick around, tell your friends and chat in the comments. Now if you aren't completely over me scroll down to hear about one of my peace-making routines.
So recently I moved back home, like all the way home... parents house home (moment of silence for that). Anyways you can now see why I needed peace-making / protecting routines. Not that I'm not grateful and appreciative because I am, incredibly appreciative. But we its just not a good feeling having to go backwards even if it is for a huge leap forward. Now back from my tangent, those of you who have read my older post know how much I love Pinterest, if your new I Love Pinterest. So a few weeks ago, I was somewhere so deeply intertwined in my Pinterest app that I somehow found my way back to a higher power.
Stop
Ok, ok I know what your thinking, "Is this going to be one of those super religious-y blogs with a scripture quote for everything and the picture perfect mushy life?" Ehhhhh-no. This ain't that and that ain't me. I said earlier POSITIVE VIBES ONLY, but this isn't about all the great things going on in my life right now cause baby it's slim pickings right now. This is just about what I do to protect my peace and regain control of my life and happiness after it was lost for so long.
So as I was saying, I stumbled across a way to not only improve my relationship with God, I also finally found a quick easy way to get myself back to zero. It started with me typing in -bible study- on the Pinterest search, probably a bad idea because all the long and crazy stuff that pops up is a great way to overwhelm yourself and stop all together. There were so many yearly plans or plans that took 30 minutes to an hour, I don't know about y'all but I can't. Not that I can't sit and devote that much time to spirituality, no I just can't have that strict of a timeframe on something that is suppose to be self led. When I came across a monthly plan, it seemed a lot more my speed; then I read a little further and see that its only ten minutes a day... Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner. I was super excited . The plan that I am using is from a blog called Sweet Blessings , and I absolutely love it. I started in the middle of the August plan, and its a different scripture each day that you read and copy down into a notebook of some sort.
At the top of each plan it talks about how it will only take ten minutes or less to copy down each of the scriptures below and its just that easy. I swear this has been the best thing. It only takes 10 minutes or if you want to add to it you can do so its so relaxing to have some sort of bible study plan but still not be stuck in the confines of a really strict plan. I start my day out by doing one of these verses, a few lit candles and an incense or two burning and ta-da peaceful start to my day. I also have an essential oil mixture that I put on and basically wear like perfume but I can talk about that in another post.
I have really been trying my hardest to keep up with the daily scriptures as well as maintaining my peace at all times. Between the scriptures, oil, occasional meditation and fun crafts I think I have been maintaining a pretty awesome level of peace. Well thats all for now I hope y'all keep hanging in there with me and thanks for reading. God Bless and get ready for more mess. Until next time xoxoxoxo
