#FeminineFridays What's Your Yes In This Season?

Welcome to #FeminineWoman Friday! I am going to jump right in with this: The enemy wants to steal the passion and the sanctity and beauty of God ordained families.  Let that sink in. The enemy wants to minimize and reduce family, which is God’s original design for our lives. I am very passionate about this topic and you can see that in my reels. And lately, I’ve been fine tuning and zoning in and going against the idea that says if you’re not doing enough, then you’re not successful and if you don’t have millions of followers, you’re not successful either. So, what have I been doing? I’ve been spending time with my husband and having deep conversations with him and spending time with my children and building strong relationships with them. I’ve been mastering etiquette.  In 2022, I’ve scaled back from doing all the things and have laser focused on my family and because of that, my husband and I are more in sync than ever. Now, don’t get me wrong, I am grateful for that season of busyness and working really hard. But, I heard a leadership guru say this - “Saying yes to one thing, does mean saying no, to something else.” What’s your yes in this season? I made a decision to scale back completely and say yes to my husband and children. How did I do that? Let’s dive in!1. {7:30}  Ask the Holy Spirit. Sometimes, we have a tendency to escape and there may not be a genuine desire to spend more time with your husband or children or you may feel like you are too busy to focus more on your family. The key is this: ask the Holy Spirit to reveal it to you. Whether you need to know the root of why you spend hours scrolling or talking on the phone instead of having a desire for spending time with God and your family  or simply need wisdom on how to scale back. The Holy Spirit will guide you and reveal those things to you.2. {8:02} Be more emotionally present. There was a time when I didn’t take time to think about the things I was going through or the root cause of certain things in my life. Sometimes we can be so used to showing up for other people and not showing up for ourselves. Well the scripture says, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” No matter what state I am in, I want to be more emotionally present.  Take a moment and go to this place of reflection and ask Jesus to heal your heart. We can be so good at nurturing as women and sometimes we nurture the wrong things like pain and bad memories. Remember, take those things and give them to Jesus and ask Him about you.  It’s time to say yes to emotional healthiness and no to bad habits and toxic atmospheres.So, I will ask again, what’s your yes in this season? The book of proverbs talks about a women who looks well to the ways of her home. It’s time to get back to the basics, stop doing a bunch of things and look to the ways of our homes.For more, grab my new, best-selling book today: Feminine Woman HabitsScriptures:Proverbs 31:27Mark 12:31John 16:13
