Hope informed by Faith and cultivated by our Circle!

Few days ago I encountered what would be considered the most strange incident to have ever happened to me. In wonder of what it would have been or how it could have been I resulted to two things: calm and insight through my creator.

I noticed how my calm demeanour made me think and within seconds strategized a plan. I immediately took my phone out and recorded the scene and in hopes of the promises of God I stood still and believed that all was well.

Indeed God prevailed and all has been well. When I narrated the incident to my Mum and sent my family the video, my mum’s response was a resounding assurance of the power of positivity and good energy. She was quick to say “that was your guardian angel hovering over you”. She would have said so many other things that would have rather destabilize me but she chose faith over fear. She chose bravery and decreed positive proclamation over my life. She chose “hope”.

My mother’s love and faith has kept me this far. She has over the years showed us the power of a woman grounded in faith and who only operates through the belief that in God all things are possible and above all else God reigns supreme.

Last night I spent my time chatting with three people. One continues to play a pivotal role in my life, the other I only got to speak to last night while the other I only had an opportunity to speak more in-depth with after several rushed hello’s. All three brought clarity of purpose to me. All three inadvertently led me to reflections of who I am and how my choices should also be centred back to self with intentionality of staying to the core of who I am which fundamentally is about what truly matters to me.

So as I think through these instances I am convinced about one thing : our circle!

Who are the people you spend time with? How do they influence you? How do they add value to you? What piece of themselves do they leave with you? How does that make or break you?

We absolutely can’t choose our parents but we can choose what aspect of them to copy. Same with our circle, it even gets easier because you can absolutely choose them. So when you decide on who is worthy of your time, be intentional about self and growth. First know what outcomes you want and ensure that the people around you align with it.

This girl here...is my reason!
