Is it Time to be Quiet?

Sincerely Angie2 Comments

I’ve learned a lot about me and others in my quiet time. In quiet moments, you get to reflect on what was said or what wasn’t said. What was done and what wasn’t done. How you felt, how you feel, and what those feelings mean. This is how self-awareness is formed and maintained.

The quiet I want to share with you all today has to do with knowing when to be quiet or when to say something. I am still fine tuning my discernment and knowing when to share what God has impressed on my heart. I get so excited when I get a revelation or when God does a thing in my life, like connecting dots. There’s a deep joy present to be able to share and recognize when God is talking to you and moving in ways that you once prayed about.

But then I sit and wonder, was I supposed to share that, God? Or was that something I was supposed to sit with and allow you to continue revealing to just me alone? Was I supposed to share that so soon? Am I supposed to fully be in it and get full clarity on it? I shared this with my cousin and she said, that maybe I am supposed to share it to encourage others. And essentially, that is my main purpose for sharing, to inspire or give hope to others.

Then I justify it by saying, God knows His child has a big mouth and she will definitely go and spread the good news. Lol! I also have to be mindful of my mouth and the words that come out of it. The mouth is powerful and because of my name’s meaning, I feel it’s my responsibility to be a good steward over what I may say to others. God surely knows my heart and an old saying “intention doesn’t equal impact” also comes to mind. So even though I mean well, I think that I will table my excitement and make sure the Lord gives me the okay to share. More daily prayers for God to bridle my tongue also.

In the most recent podcast episode, I share a story of how God moved and saved me from my emotions. It involved my thoughts, and realizing that those thoughts were not Christ-like and then fasting for renewal, clarity, revelation, and forgiveness. Listen to #DearDistraction here! In short, in 3 days, God told me to not worry, my feelings are valid and the problem is already solved. Hallelujah!!! This was a time I chose to be quiet and let God speak. Thank God I didn’t let my feelings and emotions distract me and get me caught up in a bigger issue.

Sincerely,

God is in the Details

Sincerely AngieLeave a comment

I don’t know about y’all but I often hear more about waiting on God, than the details while waiting. I think we forget or ignore the small details that gets us to our desires or dreams. The details, if you catch them when they are happening, can be the fuel you need to get you through the waiting. We are human and our flesh is weak, so sometimes waiting can be frustrating. But when God gives you, what I call “breadcrumbs”, it can be the fuel you need to keep going. Breadcrumbs are the things that remind you God heard your prayers, you’re heading in the right direction, or here’s a little something to reward you for your patience.

It’s been a while since I’ve recorded a podcast episode but I felt compelled to tell the stories I spoke of in this episode (Dear Details). Use them as a reminder or as encouragement to pay attention to the details. God provides. He provides provision, protection, and peace in our waiting season. All you have to do is recognize it and give thanks of gratitude.

In 2016, I received a notification that there was a discrimination lawsuit with a company I was in relationship with. This prompted me to do a deep dive into my finances and I learned so much and made so many changes. The blessing out of that was I learned finances, credit, money, APR’s, credit cards, etc. and I started sharing it with anyone with eyes and ears. *God provides!

Back in 2018, I wanted to make a huge purchase. It was something I wanted just because I was tired of the version of the thing I had. Upon doing my research, it was determined that I in fact was not ready to make that purchase. But the blessing that came from that situation, was that I went hard in the paint and paid my car off 2-1/2 years early and wrote a book I never published. *God’s protection & provision!

One of the most profound moments I remember, was in 2011. I tell this story often because of the blessing it was to me. I was on vacation and I thought of work, and there was a pain in my chest. I purposely thought of work again while on the beach and the pain in my chest returned. I knew that was my sign to leave that job as soon as I returned home. It was the best decision I’d ever made. My life was by no means perfect after that decision but the peace I received was priceless. *God’s blessing of peace!

I know some details won’t always be so obvious but when you know God, you know how He works and you know that He is always working. Thank Him at every turn. Give Him the glory always. Things are working in your favor, whether good or bad, to get you to the things you prayed for and the things you desire.

In less than a week, on Saturday, May 31st, if you’re in ATL or will be in ATL, find your way to Addicted 2 Industry event held by my friend and fellow creative SirTy of STG Entertainment. He’s a mogul in the industry. He’s the CEO of ForeverFathers, director, producer, actor, host, model, motivational speaker and so much more. I mean the list literally goes on and on. I am grateful to know him.

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of interviewing @SirTyOnline on IG live. The live video is available on IG and YouTube, and the audio is available on the podcast. During the interview, he gave us details on his upcoming event, Addicted 2 Industry, and the purpose behind it. If you are looking to get into the film industry, this is the event for you. Whether you’re an actor, singer, photographer, director, producer, crew, etc. you need to be in the building! This is a networking event, and connections will be made. Get your tickets now HERE! The flyer for the event can also be viewed in PopOut Magazine, where this month’s edition, features Kenya Moore on the cover.

SirTy and I go way back, like 25+ years ago. He has remained a positive force and a ball of energy. He has a heart to help others, whether it’s by motivating or creating a space of others to succeed in life. This event will be no different. The last time SirTy and I chatted was in 2019, when he hosted a stage play, No More Tears. Take a listen to that episode, Dear Dreamer. If you don’t know him, get to know him. Tune in to get the deets on everything he has going on this year. He is blessed and booked all year long. Follow his journey. Support and be encouraged!
