Blessings are so unique! I appreciate understanding that God loves me so much, that my blessings are MY BLESSINGS!! No one can take them from me!
Yours are yours as well! The spirit of envy and jealousy are detrimental to our growth and actually receiving what is for us. Being jealous or envious of another persons blessings is equivalent to being upset that when I ate healthy, you didn't lose weight! It makes no sense, it is a breeding ground for evil to enter, and it is the wrong spirit to entertain. See, it is written that NO GOOD THING WILL HE WITHHOLD FROM THEM THAT WALK UPRIGHTLY (Psalms: 84:11) One of my favorite light switches in my book is Intention vs Deed! Doing the right thing is directly related to your blessings, even when others don't do right by you. There will be people who take our kindness for weakness, there will be situations where you were blatantly used! But if our intention was pure, rest assured that balance is on the way. The Universe balances itself all the time, and the blessings always come from an unexpected direction. The next time you are blessed out of the blue from an unexpected direction, know that your deeds earned you that blessing. God put us here on PURPOSE with a PURPOSE! Our blessings are ensured to continue if we just do the right thing. There are lessons to be learned before the next level of lessons are presented. There is a store house in heaven with blessings for us as we continue to grow, pass tests, and be faithful. The homeless person is prepared for his mansion by getting an efficiency or studio from working at a store emptying trash and doing odd jobs at night. He was grateful for his shelter, new home, and just a place to live. Continued good deeds, still doing odd jobs, he gets a raise and it now pays enough to allow for an apartment. Overjoyed, now with more space in the apartment, he is allowed to have an office so he can work on his passion in his spare time. Thankful every moment for more space, he's diligent and passionate, and goes on to sell an idea and gets major recognition. Now the idea has turned into a lot of money which allows him to buy his mansion. Along our journeys, we are distracted and misinformed, tricked, and uneducated, which stagnates us and doesn't allow for the faith/blessing machine to flow well-oiled. Not only will we continue to be blessed, but any weapon formed, any trouble, trick, -as long as we LOVE and BELIEVE that GOD is ALMIGHTY, he will rescue, protect, honor, give long lives and salvation! This is what my education of living life, self discovery, and the holy spirit has taught me. I have just given you a recipe to favor. We all have the potential to be anointed!! If you haven't already, please read my book TURN ON THE LIGHTS SO YOU CAN SEE! Love, Latisha

When I hear the word "Vampire" it immediately takes my mind to darkness and stealing or taking something vital to life. Energy Vampires are just that. They come in many forms, and are usually done by the people closest to us. When I googled Energy Vampires, I was surprised to see so many blogs and articles on the concept. In my book, I talk about Control Dramas, just some of the ways that people steal your energy. I like this excerpt from one of the blogs I read: How to Avoid Being Drained by Energy Vampires By SOPHIE HENSHAW, DPSYCH "At first glance, energy vampires can seem highly attractive. They often are good-looking, bold, flamboyant or intelligent, and may appear to have a high opinion of you as indicated by their flattering attention. Drawing you into their inner circle may seem like just the boost you need in your usually drab work environment. However, be aware that they are “grooming” you — setting you up to exploit you in whichever way best suits their purposes later. What seems quite innocent at first, such as finding a good friend, may lead you to compromise your ethics, morals and values against your will — maybe even breaking the law in due course. And because energy vampires are masters at avoiding responsibility, you could be the one who takes the blame when things go wrong." It's crazy because I look back on all of the relationships that I had that were toxic and had an element of Vampirism, they were all of those characteristics described above. I feel it is my purpose to let everyone know about these terms and issues, and help us all grow. For clarity in your life, and a general idea of Energy Stealing, I attached a link to a quiz. Take the quiz below! http://psychcentral.com/quizzes/vampires-quiz.htm A CHILDREN'S PARABLE This has become one of my favorite books to read to my babies. It has so many lessons for adults as well. A lot of us are "babies" if you will, when it comes to our OWN understanding of spirituality, so this book is a great place to start!!
When I first read it, I got a rush of KNOWING! I knew that this was absolutely correct and that this was definitely SOUL FOOD for my babies. My 3 year old always compares herself to the "little soul", as if she is imagining her life before this life. She tells me that she was in heaven with God before she came here. If you have read my previous posts, her favorite book is called, "Together Again", which is about a little girl becoming reunited with her mother here on earth. That book starts, "Do you remember where you lived before you were here on earth? I do. I lived in Heaven with God." Please know that the influences that our kids get from us are the habits and life style they will adopt and be "programmed" to do in the future as young adults and adults. I teach SPIRITUALITY to my babies, and I PRACTICE it as well. Kids do not as they are told, but as they are taught. Instead of watching pointless challenges, youtube videos of fights, worldstar, poison tv, and listening to defamation music, idolizing Ho's and wanting girls to aspire to be "Bad Bi**hes", how about pouring some soul positivity into our youth so that we can ensure a legacy of strong minded soulful children and future leaders! Just looking at what is happening in the world today, this surely goes toward the solution and not the problem. BE BLESSED AND PLEASE TURN ON THE LIGHTS! |
