Living for my Nephew (Open Letter)

Hey friend,

How are you feeling today? Pretty good. I’m glad to hear you’re doing well. Let me ask you question. Are you an auntie? Yes you said. Oh good so am I!! Isn’t auntiehood a blessing? Yes I made the word up lol.

Well I asked you that question because I want to share a letter with you I decided to write to my nephew.  I want him to have something he can look back on and read forever.  Do you have a few minutes to read it? Yes you said. Ok good. Here it is…

My dear nephew, 

I love you today, tomorrow and yesterday.  From the first day your mommy brought you home from the hospital I’ve been in love.  You’ve always been a happy child with a smile that would light up a room for days.  Never change this about yourself.  It’s a rare trait to possess in today’s world and since God gave it to you it’s a must you never lose it.  

open letter to my nephew

I’m writing you this letter to encourage your journey ahead as a sophomore in high school.  This is the time for you to start preparing  for your next move in life.  I want you to begin asking yourself questions like” What do I want to do? What do I like? What do I love? How will I show up in the world?”because although your parents brought you into this world you have an individual assignment to fulfill.  You are responsible for how you choose to live your life from this day forward.  I know you want to make your mommy, daddy and sisters proud which is perfectly ok but never forget about making yourself proud first.  Now I know you may not be able to answer the questions I mentioned earlier right away but I want you to start preparing your mind for manifestation.  What is manifestation you ask?  Simply put it is asking God for what you want then waiting on Him to reveal it to you.  You deserve it all.  I want you to be ready for when it comes.  You are a beautiful soul with a big heart.  You are hard-headed sometimes but I’ve seen the lessons learned make you stronger.  

I want you to continue to learn your craft.  Your talent for singing has elevated you to a nurturing school enviornment with unlimited opportunities.  Take advantage of them all.  This is a blessing that not everyone will get to experience.  You were chosen so don’t ever forget to let God know you’re thankful.  

The last thing I want you to do is to continue to love honestly.  Check in with your heart often to see if it’s getting all it needs.  It’s important in order for it to continue to work correctly.  Ask questions and start again.  Enjoy the journey and never give up!!

I love you always and forever Monta,

With Hugs and Love,

Auntie Kelly

 

What advice would you give your nephew?

9 years of Survivorship

 

2/3/15:27pm

I am a survivor again today

Like every day since the second month

and fourth day nine years ago

It started with a nudge from God

followed by a obedient doctor

who felt my heart and pain

to my acceptance of the information given

with an ingenuine attempt to follow through

but God kept nudging me

reminding me that I promised to move next time

HE showed up

744 hours  of second guessing

until today

I’m glad I accepted God’s healing

So today I could have the opportunity to celebrate

a huge milestone in my survivor life

I’ve cried, I’ve been depressed, I opened my heart to live again.

Today  I thank you God for my counselor Mrs. Ann Mcleod

who has lead me closer to you for the last 9 years.

It’s my SURVIVORVERSARY!!!

With Hugs and Love,

Lakell

 

When is your survivorversary?  Let’s celebrate!!!!!

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for making this day possible for me to see.

A day of hope and rest in knowing all that I want and desire will soon come to pass.

I will remain grateful in this journey because I can finally see what is next for me.

Your belief in my ability to walk ahead in places I haven’t seen yet has strengthened my faith to know only YOU have the power to decided whether a door opens or closes.

I finally believe in ME.

Thank you Lord.

In Your Name,

I Pray

AMEN

 

Salute to the Savior Sunday

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for another day to glorify your NAME.

I am honored to be chosen to wake up one more time.  I have so much work still left to do.

Lord, thank you the desire of change.  I know that it is time for me to move forward fast in order to be able to take advantage of all opportunities ahead for me.  This is the moment you have prepared me for Lord.

Thank you for trusting me with the assignment of walking alongside other survivors like myself.  Let them hear loud and clear from  you that they are no longer ALONE.

I love you, I honor you,  I give you praise.

In your name I pray.

AMEN

I wake up today with a clear mind, soul and heart
which will make room for the thoughts, feelings and love you have in store for me today.

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for allowing me to see and live in today.  I feel the joy of this day already in my heart.  I believe you have great things in store for me.

I request out loud my silent prayers for a healthier temple while living the full-time entrepreneur life.  I am out growing my corporate job as you already know from my  moans and groans.  I am grateful for the experience of the valuable skills plus the steady paycheck.  I have grown and learned a lot.

Thank you for keeping the desires of my heart alive so I may live in them before they are fully revealed to me.  I will continue to work with a faithful heart in preparation for the next big move.

I surrender to your Will today Lord.  I accept the need to prepare for the plan you have for me with no complaints. I will stay focused, grateful and faithfully.

In you name I pray.

AMEN
