Refocusing

As I was typing up my last post, I started to get excited. When I started talking about Jesus and how he has never lost a fight. I been talking a lot about my life and my past hurts, but I want to refocus on all the good that has happened, and all that Jesus has done for me. I want to focus on all the good that I have experienced.

  I have a roof over my head now when at recent times I didn't. I have food to eat and clean clothes when at times I didn't have either I am thankful I can walk and talk when that hasn't always been the case. I am looking at all the positives in my life yes it may not be what I want or how I like things, but I am so much better off than before. I am no longer in an abusive relationship. For the most part I have no drama in my life. Yes, its lonely for now but God is making way for new people that will love me the way I should be loved. So, I am refocusing my life to see only the good and to place my trust and hope on GOD. All He has done for me and will do for me. I am no longer a victim of any of my past I am a victor in Christ.  I will no longer look back but keep my eyes on Jesus that is where all my help comes from. I am letting all that go and have place it all in God's hands. 

In reality I can't change the past, but I can focus on my future and will no longer take that baggage with me. I don't want living in the past stop me from living in the present. I don't want hate to ever effect my heart and life. I don't have to like all that has happened to me by others, but I will not allow it to affect me anymore. I am cutting off its power form my life and moving on with the ones in my life. 

I think we all know the story of lot's wife How by her looking back after God told them not to, she became salt. Right where she was standing, I think there is a lesson in that story that at times we all forget. What I take from this is Don't live in the past stop trying to go back from a time and place that God has removed you from.  So, with that being said I am refocusing my life in the now. Because to live in the future is just foolish because I don't know what it holds. But I do know who holds all my days and that is good enough for me.

Welcome to this thing called life.

I have never been lost for words but somehow, I am now. Which is very surprising to me because all my life I been told I talk too much. I'm sitting here wondering what I should say. Would anyone care or want to read what I have to say? Could anyone relate to me and my life experiences? I have faced many trials in my life and want to share them with others. That maybe my life experiences could help someone else. That somehow by sharing and opening up about my life it could bring hope to someone else. My life has had many ups and downs, and this blog will be about all that plus advice I have learned along the way. I am going to use my life lessons to help others. So, welcome to my Messy Crazy Life Chronicles. I want to welcome you to this circus that I call life. I am the ring master and want you to sit down relax and enjoy.  Let me introduce myself. Please call me Meme {nickname}. I am a daughter,granddaughter,sister,wife . mom and now grandma. I am now in my forties and looking for

Why I blog.

My life is totally different in this moment in time than ever before. My eyes are wide open, and I now see people more clearly than ever before. I know who's lying to me and about me. I see the snake in the grass, and I am not the only one either. If you got to lie about me to make people like you then go ahead and keep those people because obviously you need those people more than me. See I am happy over here minding my business being myself. I now cut out anyone and anything that brings drama in my life. No, matter who they are point blank period.  I get judge a lot because of the way I look and how I carry myself. I have 50 tattoos and I have my guard up at all times if I am in public. I really only trust maybe two people and my dog. I no longer allow people to push me around and I don't like to be around people at all. I keep my life very private to in a way this blog is a big step for me. I jokingly tell others I want a hoodie made that says, not friendly on the front and

I Still Have Hope.

 I have been debating should I keep on blogging and trying. I really think I will because it's growing and helping me just as much as I hope it is helping others. I have been thinking of what I could blog about. I am going to blog about my everyday life. I don't keep my hours like regular people. What I mean is I sleep after noon till late at night. So, I usually go to bed around 10 am. and sleep till 3:30 pm then I get up for a while if I am tired then I will go back to slept and slept till 9 pm. I really believe in taking naps.  This year I learned what it means to place things in God's hands. If I'm facing very stressful situation that I know I can't fix or do anything about it. I give it to God and take a nap. I just place it in his hands and go to sleep. Now I no longer make list to figure anything out. I no longer stress over things I have no control over. I just tell God about it and let him handle it all. I tell him about each issue I am facing and give it o
