It's Been 6 Months!

Image
For those who are following -- it has been 6 months now since I began locing my hair. It has been quite a journey inwardly and outwardly. I say that because somehow my hair has always reflected outwardly what God is doing in my life inwardly. I am going through a transformation just like a caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly and this is only the beginning. This collage is compiled with pictures from months 3 through 6. Let me know what you think! I am loving it!

Hooray for Progress!!!

I began the hair locking process on May 23rd of this year. When I first started out my hair was very short and it seemed thin. Here are few pictures of the very first day that my hair stylist did my coils and one week later in Erie, PA. I was told by several individuals that I was a good candidate to begin locking my hair and they said it would look nice on me as well. It took months for me to really decide to try it. Then at my second appointment I saw amazing results that I was impressed with I could not believe how much and how quickly my hair began to grow. My hair stylist was also impressed with the results. Here are more pictures after my second appointment. It was after this appointment that I decided that I would definitely keep the style and I really like it a lot. I was searching for about one year or more for a natural hair style that is easy to take care of, inexpensive, and would look great on me. I have found it. I'm loving it. Thank you, Father. At my third appoi...

"I Just Want To Be Me!"

Have you ever found yourself repeating a single phrase to yourself and not necessarily have a full understanding of why? Well, such was the case for me. I have been repeating the phrase "I just want to be me" for quite some time now -- I would say years. After really thinking about it and asking myself why I have been repeating that phrase to myself and when are the times I find myself saying it most -- I have now come to the realization that all this time I have really been settling in my mind and heart who the real me is, the me God has created me to be, the process that I am going through, and where I am in that process. I have gone through many stages within the past 3-5 years of my life and I can honestly say that I am beginning to see who the real me is. The person whom God has created me to be. So many of us go through life and fail to really be who we are created to be. No two people are alike. There are billions of people in the world but yet God has not created a...

I am so blessed beyond measures in my 28th year and the best is yet to come and it's coming soon! To God Be ALL the Glory! I am in Pursuit of the Glory!!! I will abide in His Presence!!! Thank You, Father for enlarging/blessing us in every area of our lives and especially in our family. Our new family -- have Your way God -- let Your good and perfect Will be done in us everyday of our lives and for the rest of our lives. May all of your ways be our ways so that we will be pleasing to You in everything. May our affections always be set upon You only and You alone. As for me and my house -- we will serve the Lord. Amen! I am so blessed! I thank God for His faithfulness to me. He has answered my prayers and delivered a promise He made to me in Sept. of 2003. I am so thankful that God has given me the desires of my heart and He is allowing me to fulfill the plan and purpose that He has placed me on this earth for. He has heard all my heart's cry and He has blessed me so much ---...
