This morning as I was doing my devotionals with my husband, we were reading a devotional called "Increasing Your Bloom Ability," something stood out to me about independence being our greatest enemy, and learning to live in Him is paramount for increasing our bloom ability. As I began to pray and thank God for leading our family, I saw the Holy Spirit moving and showing me how He has already done so much in the past year. A year ago, I struggled and worked like a workaholic trying to make ends meet because my husband was not doing enough to make ends meet in our household. I was praying and feeling so angry because he would come home early all the time, and I did not understand why I was working so much, and he was hard working. But, as time went along, I realized it was not about me. It was not about him, it had always been about learning to depend on God for provisions, and when I began to be grateful for what I had and began to be grateful for my husband and our life together, God started to turn things around. I was no longer in my position at work. God wanted me to see Him work things out, and not the other way around. I did not need to be dependent on myself, but I needed to see God doing things in my life.  In this COVID year 2020, the Lord provided for my family all year without me working!!! I worked maybe a tenth of what I normally worked, and that was just because I wanted to. I had prayed that God would bless my husband to be able to lead our family in the way a leader needs to, and God has turned things around in our household to where he is up for a Lead position at work, and I am still home with our children as much as needed. I do a massage here and there, but not nearly like I used to, and I am becoming okay with it because I am happy to be there for my family the way they need me to be. Being there for my family first is where I need to be, and my love for my family springs forth. A song comes to mind “Better Days Are Coming” by Le’Andria Johnson, and she says, “Keep smiling because everything will be alright,” and I am going to do just that because my days are better as I allow God to do a work in me and I rest in His presence.
Be blessed,
Tabitha King, LMT, M-Div.

    Love it Tab!!! You are so strong! I think that all of us were raised to be strong women and leaders to the point where we have to take a step back and allow the man to find his way to lead through Christ!

Meet Tabitha King

 
For years, I felt helpless inside my own body.

Hi, I am a wife and mother, a minister, a massage therapist, and a holistic health coach. I am passionate about working with the body and learning more about how our bodies work, but more importantly, how to be made whole in our bodies, minds, and spirits.

Through the years, I had become a workaholic and never felt any peace. I was overwhelmed and stressed with dis-ease and pain.  I had to stop working for a while because of the chronic pain while having a husband and three children at home who needed me. 

I struggled with my health for quite some time, and I went through worse times before they got better. 

How many times have you been to a doctor, and they acted as if they couldn't figure out what's going on with you, so you go seeking doctor after doctor, looking for someone to help you because you know you are dealing with pain and need help figuring out the problem? How many times have you tried to create new habits, start new diets, introduce new patterns in your life, and end up feeling like you failed at all those things? 

And then, it happened. I have found something amazing that is helping me to understand I AM a healthy being, and I CAN recommit to a healthy, wealthy life!

I was introduced to a different way of living that many people are talking a lot about lately. I realized for my chronic situations; I needed to start getting my health under control. I’d considered it before, but I kept cycling back into a downward spiral going through a valley filled with pain. 

Prolonged physical illness not only affects us physically, but it affects everyone physically, mentally, and spiritually. Many tend to suffer a lot at the hands of doctors who make them worse, not better. I have dealt with this and it has put a bitter taste in my mouth towards doctors. The different medications did not lead to helping me get better, but they caused more pain, and side effects from the medicines caused deeper stress to my body. Anger, hurt, and pain kept showing up in my life, and I didn't know how to deal with it. These things controlled my mind, but now I am being made free. I love God, but, for quite some time, while I knew the Word says, "There is now no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus," I was still suffering from condemnation, guilt, blame, and shame.  Now, I have learned to persevere with joy during my pain because in the end, by faith, God will get the victory through my life's journey, and I can walk in my victory daily!

I’m on a mission to help people break free and empower themselves with the knowledge and resources I’ve worked so hard to get for myself.  To begin moving in the right direction, regain your health in the next 90 days with your tailored report by clicking here.
