Reflecting on God's Benefits

Reflecting on God's Benefits
In a world filled with chaos and the mundane, it is crucial to remember the blessings and healing that God offers to our bodies, minds, and spirits. By embracing gratitude and praise for the Lord's goodness, we open ourselves to the opportunities for restoration and victory that lie ahead. It's essential to stay mindful of the divine support available to us, despite the physical and spiritual challenges we may face.

The scripture advises us to guard our thoughts and align them with God's will, as achieving a mindset dominated by the Word of God and the Holy Spirit can fortify us against doubts and falsehoods. By filling our minds with divine truths and embracing faith, we can counteract negative thinking and invite God's healing and strength into our lives. This transformative approach encourages us to believe in the possibility of healing and to declare our trust in God's power to overcome our afflictions.

The Struggle with Saying "I'm Sorry": Why It's Hard and How to Overcome It

The Struggle with Saying "I'm Sorry": Why It's Hard and How to Overcome It
As African American moms, we have a lot on our plates from raising our children to dealing with personal and societal issues. One thing that is often difficult for many of us is saying "I'm sorry." Though it may seem like a simple phrase, it can be loaded with complications, guilt, and ego. In this post, we'll explore why it can be so hard to apologize and offer some tips on how to overcome these barriers.

1. We often associate saying sorry with weakness
Many of us were taught to be strong and independent, and apologizing can feel like admitting defeat or showing vulnerability. We may see it as a sign of weakness or fear. However, apologizing takes courage, and it shows maturity and humility. It's essential to change our mindset and see saying sorry as a strength, not a weakness.

2. We fear judgment and rejection
Apologizing can make us feel like we're putting ourselves on the line, vulnerable to judgment or rejection. We may worry that the person we're apologizing to won't be forgiving or that it will damage our reputation or relationships. However, research shows that apologizing can actually improve relationships and increase trust. It's essential to remember that we're all human, and everyone makes mistakes.

3. We attach our identity to our behavior
Sometimes, our ego or sense of self can get in the way of apologizing. We may feel like our actions are a reflection of who we are as a person. If we've hurt someone, we may feel like we're a bad person, and apologizing would confirm that belief. However, it's essential to separate our behavior from our identity. We can make mistakes without being bad people, and apologizing shows that we're taking responsibility for our actions.

4. We're not always aware of the impact of our actions
Sometimes, we may not realize the effect our words or actions have on someone else. Even if we didn't intend to hurt someone, it's still important to apologize and acknowledge their feelings. It shows that we care about their well-being and respect their emotions. It's essential to listen and try to put ourselves in the other person's shoes to understand how they feel.

5. We lack the skills or language to apologize effectively
Lastly, sometimes, we may want to apologize, but we don't know how. We may not have learned the necessary skills or language to apologize effectively. One technique is to use the "I'm sorry, but" approach, which can come across as insincere or deflecting blame. Instead, we can use a straightforward and genuine apology, such as "I'm sorry for what I did. It was wrong and hurtful, and I take full responsibility."

In conclusion, saying "I'm sorry" can be difficult, but it's essential for building healthy relationships and connections. By changing our mindset, overcoming our fears, separating our behavior from our identity, acknowledging the impact of our actions, and learning the necessary skills, we can become better at apologizing. As African American moms, we can model this behavior for our children and teach them the power of saying sorry. Remember, apologizing takes courage, but it's worth it.

I hope this encourages you in your journey to freedom. Many are afraid, but I come to tell you there is victory and freedom in repentance.

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.
