Thoughts to empower me!

I can do this because I am tenacious vivacious fighter for the right. I am more than an overcomer I am a conqueror. I have been victorious in fighting for my life in every other way. I have been to Russia twice I am raising two special needs kids! It is now they are congruent and I am going to receive support to help them I have more left to take care of me ! I am an excellent wife for over 25 years. I can speak up and let others own their stuff. I don't have to swallow stuffed feelings anymore! It is my turn now for my focus to be placed on the furtherance of my restoration physically. It is the last of the goals for my own true restoration! I deserve this because I deserve to have the best life possible to enjoy the family I have fought for the mental and spiritual health I have fought for. I am beautiful! It is time my outsides match my insides. I deserve to be free from the fare of being assaulted for looking pretty. I don't deserve to be fat to be safe from perverts. I can and will be gorgeous again and I deserve to take the anger out instead of in. I matter! I don't have to look pretty for others JUST FOR ME!
I deserve to be fought for!

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
