CLARITY IN CHAOS 💁🏽 Apostle Peter in his first letter to the scattered Jews in exile wrote this in 1 Peter chapter 4. 📖 1 Peter 4:12-13 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which is taking place to test you [that is, to test the quality of your faith], as though something strange or unusual were happening to you. But insofar as you are sharing Christ’s sufferings, keep on rejoicing, so that when His glory [filled with His radiance and splendor] is revealed, you may rejoice with great joy. 🤔 When chaos enters our lives which is unavoidable how do you respond? 🤔 What kind of clarity in your chaos do these verses give you? 💁🏽‍♀️ Chaos isn't something that we welcome into our lives, but being able to see through it, to see Jesus knowing that He is right there with us does bring great clarity. 🤔 Where are you experiencing chaos in which you need clarity? 🙏🏾 Ask God for His perspective and expect to hear from Him. Let the peace of God spill over you, know this, your trials are not in vain. 🧐 Go Deeper: Name the chaos you feel in your life right now. How can you rejoice in those trials? God Is Always There 🙌🏾 Your Trials Are Not In Vain. #abidinginjesuschrist #christianprinciples #christianresponse #rejoicealwaysinthelord #abideapp #imfollowingjesus #scripturewithpatu #clarityinchaos #GodsPlan #wedoitforhisglory https://www.instagram.com/p/Chr_kqWrlUR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you ever feel insignificant, remember that you are living on a planet that is perfectly placed by a star inside one of the 100 billion galaxies in the universe and that most of the elements that make you were formed in stars over billions of years and many star lifetimes... your existence is literally a miracle. You are literally one in a million. No, it's not always easy. Yes, sometimes it hurts. But you are a miracle... you are beautiful stardust thats perfectly placed on earth... There isn't another you out there. That is your superpower...You are radiant. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Don't let anyone take away your light.

clarity in chaos || rabastan & sybill

Sybill Trelawney was a surprisingly difficult woman to get in contact with. A Moroccan expert on runes he had worked with on several occasions had been able to point him in the right direction, but she hadn’t lived in the area in years and had lost contact with her old clients. So Rabastan followed word of mouth for two weeks before he had any success, and even then was told that they could only pass his information along and that he would have to wait for Sybill to contact him herself. She seemed to be somewhat of a drifter, peddling her trade in different places around the area. It was frustrating for a tracker of lost objects such as himself not to be able to pin down one woman, a former Ravenclaw just two years older than him, no less, but he cared enough about this meeting to be patient and wait.

And at last, it paid off. His breath misted in the air and his hands were tucked deep in his pockets, snow falling lightly around him as he made his way to her flat in the city. Glancing down at the scrap of paper in his hand, Rabastan stomped the snow off his boots on the mat outside and made his way up to the correct floor. As he neared the door he could feel the prickle of wards against his skin and slowed, but, surprisingly, he was permitted to step through them. She must have allowed him access, which was a luxury he didn’t take for granted these days. Raising one arm, he knocked on the door and stepped back to wait, his hands crossed in front of him, one thumb rubbing absently at the rune on the inside of his wrist.

It had been long years since he had stood before a Seer. But whether she would be a charlatan, a blasphemer to the old trade, or as gifted as the Seer he had known was yet to be seen. Either way, he hoped Sybill lacked one talent of hers in particular--of knowing a man’s heart at a glance, his innocence or the guilt weighing on his soul. Because if she could, Rabastan might be in trouble. Or at the very least, back into the snow and out of luck.

My 💕Self love💕 Journey (...so far)

Loving myself wasn't easy... and I realize there is still work that I need to do. Making the decision to love myself was more than just having a recharge day, a spa day, or a 'me' day. But it started when I decided to take a deep look in the mirror and I realized that I genuinely didn't like a single thing about my appearance. I didn't like my smile, my curls, my freckles, my skin color, my body (frankly the list could go on). It was realizing that I liked the things I hated about myself on other people, but thinking it never looked quite right on me. It was realizing that I was constantly comparing myself to others and feeling subpar because they were beautiful and I wasn't. Realizing that I used a filter for every single picture and not liking the way I looked without it. It was realizing that makeup stopped being fun and that I couldn't go to get the mail without it because I felt so insecure. It was realizing that my insecurities affected other areas of my life like my friendships, relationships, social life, etc. It was realizing that I was always hoping somebody would choose me and giving my absolute all to them because I just couldn't believe someone could look at me and think "wow, she's the one I want".

It was realizing that I was always in a relationship because I was looking for validation and for somebody else to love me so much it would 'fix' me into loving myself... and realizing how toxic that can be to another person... Learning to love myself was making the decision to delete my social media for a few years so I would stop comparing myself with the beauty I saw in others that I just couldn't see in myself. It was forcing myself to take pictures without a filter. It was forcing myself to look in the mirror every day and tell myself that I am beautiful, that I have a pretty smile... It was telling myself I have beautiful skin every day as I put on body lotion. It was forcing myself to look at my reflection every time I walked passed a mirror instead of avoiding it and smiling. It was looking myself in the eyes and appreciating the beautiful brown eyes looking back. It was learning to appreciate my curls, even when it's frizzy and no hair product seems to help. It was mentally giving myself pep talks when group photos were being taken and reminding myself I don't need a filter to look beautiful. It was giving myself pep talks before going places to remind myself that I don't always need a full face of makeup. It was reminding myself to walk confidently. It was realizing that self love is a life long journey as my body changes with time and i learn to love it every day, flaws and all. My self love journey was making the decision to not look for a relationship for a few years to give myself some time to heal and learn how to love myself. It was making the decision of choosing me because "wow, I'm worth it" and giving my all to myself and loving myself so much that I learn what my worth is. And while not everyone will appreciate my beauty, it won't matter what they think because I finally do.

At some point growing up, I lost track of who I was. Always trying to fit in, avoiding being the odd one out, dressing and laughing and talking like everyone else... 'enjoying' the same things others did. Eventually, I stopped doing the things I truly enjoyed. I stopped being ME and started being the version that I knew wasn't going to get bullied, made fun of, or looked at weird. I forgot who I was and what I liked and started saying all the 'right' things, acting the 'right' way, doing all the 'right' things to fit in without actually being noticed because I didn't want to stand out...I think I confused the peace I felt from not being bullied anymore with actual happiness, I confused the feeling of not having people talk bad about me, not making fun of me, not singling me out with happiness... I did everything in me to fit in without standing out too much. I didn't want the attention because 'attention was dangerous and hurtful'. I don't think I ever actually realized that I was watering myself down and killing that little light inside of me... I don't think I ever actually realized the harm that I was causing myself in the moment and in the long run... I did everything in my power to tone me down. but FUCK!! I DONT WANT TO KEEP TONING MYSELF DOWN ANYMORE!!!! It's driving me crazy and it's making me lonely and bored out of my mind!!!!! I want to find that little light I had inside as a kid and ignite it again. I am weird and nerdy and silly and creative and who knows what else but I want to figure it out. I want to be ME again. unapologetically me. I owe it to myself. I only have one life.... I don't want to waste anymore of it. @clarityinchaos

An accurate description of my ✨Spiritual Journey✨(pt.1 healing)

My healing didn't happen over night. It is also not done... it also hasn't been a smooth straight line. Ive lived with depression for more than 18 years, thats the majority of my life... it didn't just go away because I meditate and journal or because I bought a few crystals and go take walks in nature or because I started praying. I didn't just learn over night how to show myself love (I'm still learning, btw). My healing journey has been a rollercoaster ride, with drops, twists and tunnels. There's moments its calm and I feel at the highest vibration but I still go through moments where my depression comes to say hello and brings anxiety along for a week or so and we hangout until they feel like leaving again... I think the main difference now after a few years of being in this ✨spiritual journey✨is that I have hope.

I have hope for my future and that the dark cloud will pass... meditation and journaling have given me with the emotional tools to deal with my depression and anxiety in a healthy way... I let myself feel my emotions and I cry it out if I need to. I journal and get my feelings out and bring my thoughts out by writing them down (which has been so helpful)... sometimes I feel like the hermit and will take some time to myself and spend it outside looking up at the sky and just take some deep breaths and let myself exist in the moment, not 'holding on' to a single thought but instead just letting them come and go while I focus on my breathing... (sometimes thats easier said than done). Sometimes, there are things that trigger me emotionally, situations or things that are said that bring anxiety and or that alter my mood and suddenly there's a gray cloud following me around that make the rollercoaster intense again while I grow and heal whatever it was that needed healing.... sometimes my depression and anxiety push me so far that I ended up going back to old habits because for 18 years its how I dealt with things and thats what's familiar; but as I continue to journal and meditate, I begin to grow and learn and heal some more and start once again to do the things I know will help me in the long run, and not just in the moment. I made a mistake but thats alright, it taught me patience and forgiveness. I remind myself that I didn't throw my entire journey away, that I didn't throw away my progress. As the years have gone by and I have made my mental and emotional health and self love a priority in my life, I find that I have less drops, tunnels and drops. but they still happen every once in a while. What im saying is that this journey isn't linear... and there isn't a timeline for when you should be 'healed'... so its okay, take a breath, and be patient with yourself. You got this.

I made the decision to learn how to love myself by getting to know me, treating myself with kindness, doing things I knew were good for my body and mind... I'm not perfect, but I have treated myself with so much love and kindness and patience and respect that I can't believe I ever settled for less.

Today, I am feeling thankful for all the doors that I tried to keep open but closed in my face, for all the people I tried holding on to that left, for all the situations I tried to control but didn't turn out the way I planned. I didn't see it then, but it was all a blessing in disguise. I thought my life was falling apart, but it was actually my life just coming together. I wouldn't have the goals and dreams that I have today if my life had stayed the direction it was going. I upgraded my point of view, my goals, my dreams, my aspirations... it took a while, but I can now see that my life wasn't being turned upside down... but that my life was being upgraded to take me on a road I wouldn't have even imagined before.
