I can Overcome

Today I was feeling defeated, I felt weary, I felt as though I was not enough of anything.... and at the same time I could feel an enormous amount of love from my creator. As I look back at these moments I feel truly grateful that it’s possible to overcome. When I’m in the thick of the moment it’s so paralyzing and I can’t see any positive lesson or outcome, but looking back now I feel blessed to experience it all.  

I feel as though, perhaps, these feelings are necessary if only for a moment to remind me of my worth, to humble me enough to see Gods perspective of me and recognize that without him I am nothing. These feelings are only that, feelings, emotions, an uncomfortable experience in the moment which only lasts as long as I allow myself to dwell in it. I have learned to be able to recognize these feelings, to sit with them only as long as I need to until I see where they’re coming from, what I need to learn from them and What I want to feel instead. Most of the time I want to pull everyone into my pitty party with me so I can feel justified and validated, however it feels so much better to spend some time meditating, praying, writing and doing some work on myself so I can decide what else I’d rather feel and experience. Only I know the answers within myself and only I can receive the guidance and inspiration I need for myself, that’s why God is the most important person I turn to, he can speak to me in a way through the spirit that no one or nothing else can. When I’m distracted by all the loud noises in my head and lose sight of who I am and what I am capable of I feel like I am nothing and it seems as though there is no hope, only then can I choose to turn it around, to submit to an all loving and all merciful God, he reminds me of my worth and he always wants what is best for me. This is a truth I have come to know and embrace, this truth is what allows me to see that there is someone who loves me perfectly even if I don’t know why, it allows me to see that I can do hard things, that I have a purpose and that I really don’t know as much as he does so why do I keep thinking I do. Now when I feel like I’m defeated, or overwhelmed by negative emotions and I just need to cry I give myself permission to do so and take the time I need to heal, to have compassion on myself and love myself unconditionally. I now treat myself a lot better than I have in the past, even though I am the same person I have always been I feel as though I have evolved into a much more confident and inspired version of myself through reflection, connection, faith, and humility. I am grateful to always be learning and growing, I am grateful for spiritual connection, for mental clarity, emotional stability and physical abilities to be able to create a life of abundance, to be a problem solver in my life, to know that I have so much to offer and to get out of myself and live the life I’m meant to be living. I am grateful for my life and for the ups and downs, for opposition and especially for help in those moments of great opposition. #grateful #selfcoaching #mommycoach #pregnancycoach #overcomingselfdoubt #becauseofhim #opposition #lifecoach #problemsolver #insightsfromemily #unconditionallove #bestversionofmyself #liveyourlife #turntohim #selfcare
