#boundaries #newyear #momlife
I am committed to honoring my capacity this year, I am committed to honoring my capacity this year, even if that means disappointing people.

Here’s everything I’m done doing:

❌ Explaining my decisions to feel understood
❌ Shrinking myself to make others comfortable
❌ Feeling guilty after saying no
❌ Needing to be liked to feel loved
❌ Saying “I’m fine” when I’m actually overwhelmed
❌ Doing things out of obligation vs alignment
❌ Living from pressure instead of peace
❌ Confusing kindness with self-abandonment

If you’re on this journey too, hello and welcome 🫶🏽

#newyearseve #grateful #godisgood #christian #faithjourney
Right where I was 😭😭 I spent most of my life Right where I was 😭😭 I spent most of my life believing I had to find God.

Seek His face.
Seek first the Kingdom.
Ask, seek, knock.

And when I wasn’t doing any of that, I felt distant, like I was failing at being a His child.

What I’m realizing now is that God was present, patient, and near the whole time. 🥹 Just waiting for me to turn toward Him. 

“Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 

So maybe being a child of God isn’t just about finding Him. Maybe it’s also letting yourself be found.

This season feels less like striving and more like surrender. Not because I went back to church or heard the perfect sermon, but because God met me right where I was. In the middle of my pain, my overwhelm, my busy life. 

And He can do the same for you!

I’m entering 2026 with surrendered hands. This I’m entering 2026 with surrendered hands. 

This past year, God showed me that He doesn’t need my strategy. He’s been faithful in ways I didn’t even know to ask for.

So no big New Year’s resolution.
I’m on whatever God’s on 🙏🏽

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,” — Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭20‬ ‭
