Reintroduction

I bet you're probably wondering what this post in about. Frankly I don't even have a title for it so I'm going to reintroduce myself to you.

My name is Melissa. Most know as Mel. I am a single mother to the most amazing 2 year old known to man( Yes, you're included in that). A few years ago, I made some horrible choices. I stopped listening to that still small voice that was my navigator for so long. I had completely ignored God and walked off His path. I didn't even know who I was becoming and I didn't like it but I didn't try to change it. I was so angry and "rebellious" that I ended up in the most horrible of situations with my ex boyfriend that not only left me pregnant but also broken spiritually, mentally and emotionally.

I've gone through quite some stuff in my life but that experience was on a new level. Who I was back then was lost to put it simply. I was angry with how everything was just falling apart at home and with school that when I met someone, who truly speaking was not even my type, I got into a relationship with him thinking my eyes were wide open but I was blind. He was everything I said I would never date  but I did because I was weak and liked the attention he was giving me but that was all a farce. A brilliantly conceived delusion especially on my part. I mean I actually took him seriously when he claimed to want to marry me. a total lie! But anyway that's where I was. After all the stuff hit the fan, I ended up losing some family and friends I never thought I would. I felt dirty. I was broken and I had no hope.

It's taken me a long time to,

1. Get over my ex and what happened

2. Get myself fixed and whole again

3. Reconnect to my Source(God)

4. Make peace with my mistakes and find the blessings in all that mess, and
5. Discover who I am (which is an ever continuing journey)

While on this journey, I've come to know who my Father is. Because He is therefore I am. There's this fire burning in me now that has never existed before. God has something big in store for my life that I'm not sure I'll be ready for it but I'm fully trusting in him. So here's who Mel is.

Mel is,

1. A beloved child of God

2. Fearfully and wonderfully made

3. Made perfect, whole and complete
4. Loved, cherished and appreciated
5. Strong, beautiful and amazing
6. Limitless because my Father didn't create me to be limited
7. Not perfect but being perfected by my Father
8. Appointed, anointed and approved

This list is getting longer everyday
