You Are Called to Be LIGHT!
Can I just be honest? As christian women, it is HARD to stay focused on the narrow path - where God has us and where He’s calling us. It’s SO easy to get distracted by the world and all that surrounds it. Just this morning I cried out to God, ‘Show me how to focus on YOU and only YOU Lord’ and he reminded me of of my life scripture and my purpose.
‘You are called to be LIGHT - bringing out the God colors of this world.’ (Matthew 5:14 MSG)
Y’all - I KNOW this. I TEACH this. And yet I forget this and need to be reminded. Constantly. I often feel underqualified in my calling because I too struggle to remember His purpose for me but then He reminds me that ‘His power is made perfect in my WEAKNESS’ (2 Corinthians 12:9). And friend - my weak spots are MANY. I’m not a beauty expert. I struggle to put on eye shadow the right way. I am not always up on the latest style trends. I don’t always wear real pants. OK - I RARELY wear real pants. I don’t care about labels or brands. I shop at Target, Walmart, Thrift Stores & Marshalls/TJ Maxx mainly. I am so NOT boujee NOR would I consider myself a style influencer but what I AM super passionate about is helping women to identify WHO they are in Christ and building a STYLE that brings that to LIFE! Because here is what I believe:
YOU were created ON purpose and FOR a purpose. A purpose that is specifically designed for YOU. When you have a REVELATION for who you are in Christ, you connect with your purpose at the SOUL level and THAT is WAY more important to me than the brand of your jeans or whether or not you should wear silver or gold accessories.
When you have revelation for who you are in Christ and connect with purpose on a SOULFUL level, you will step out more BOLDLY into that purpose. You will seek opportunities to SHARE your message and SERVE others in a big way.
When you KNOW your purpose and SERVE others in a big way, you walk in CONFIDENCE fulfilling your CALLING.
When you walk in CONFIDENCE in your CALLING, you fully operate in your GIFTING and receive the full blessings intended just for YOU.
You see - I believe now is the time for us women to RISE UP fully in our calling. To step boldly into who God created us to be and SHARE that with others. THAT is what ‘Shine Your Light’ is all about and the services/products that I offer. My main mission behind what I do is to help you step into your SHINE - in the way God designed YOU. Now, there is a specific way we do that and style is definitely a part of that. Because when we look good, we FEEL good and will confidently GO and make disciples which is what we are all called to do!!!
So HOW does that happen, you ask? Here is a quick run down of the BE the Light program:
First we set Jesus as the foundation. We talk through your purpose, your mission, your life scripture and we create/confirm HIS vision for your ministry
From that vision, we create your Style Mission Statement that becomes your BRAND - the lens from which you and your ministry will operate from.
Then we go through the mechanics of how to create a STYLE that reflects that Mission Statement including:
Your COLOR Code and what colors best represent your style, brand, and highlight your natural features BEST
How to dress for your BODY TYPE; How to highlight your best features and feel confident in the Body God gave you
Your Style Personality and how best to find pieces that make you feel like YOU
How to accessorize best for YOU, make-up recommendations, hair, glasses and MORE
The we put it all together! We create a Style Plan that emulates best how God designed YOU and now you are ready to RUN on Mission!
In the upcoming weeks I will be unpacking each of these a bit more and would love to share more of my heart behind this work. Here me in THIS: If you are looking for a Fashion Influencer that is all about the latest style trends, is a brand influencer and will give you all the DOs and DON’ts of the fashion world - then I’m NOT your girl. BUT if you are looking for a Christian Style Coach that will walk alongside you in discovering God’s CALL on your life and how to create a STYLE or Persona that is in alignment with that call - then let’s chat because that is my sweet spot and what I’m all about!! I can’t wait to share more with you here!
