I know you desire more.
I know you are ready to break away from the mundane.
I know you are over doing the same things, in the same way, and getting the same results.
I know you desire more peace, more joy, more clarity, increased faith, confidence, and a life of wellness and abundance.
How do I know? Because I was once you. Desiring more, needing a breakthrough, yet doing the same thing, in the same way, but for some reason I was expecting different results.
How did I change it? I embraced my purpose, developed a strong prayer life, and decided to take charge of my spiritual and emotional wellness. This renewed my mindset, helped me gain clarity and mental stability and resulted in confidence, and commitment in and to my purpose.
It's not just enough for you to want better, but you have to take intentional steps to becoming better. Once you become better you start living/having better.
I've created 30 days of prayer prompts that will help you with clarity, confidence, and commitment so that you can start your new year clear about your direction in life and with extreme focus on how to make 2025 your best year thus far.
Each day read a prayer prompt and then pray accordingly. Get you a journal so that you can write down what you have prayed about each day and so that you can reflect back as you start living in your answered prayers. I look forward to hearing your testimonies!
