Recommended: Essay on what its like being a mother

I am Kierra Strickland, I am 22 years old. I was born in Laurel, Ms but raised in Moselle, Ms. I am the eldest child of 3 and I am a new mom to a princess named Kyla McKenzie. My entire life hood has been wonderful. However, I must say this past year has been the absolute best. Honestly, my daughter has been the reason for my abundant amount of joy. Being a mother really made reevaluate my life and change for a better life. I am still collecting pieces to add to my life story. As of now, I have several things that could represent or symbolize how my life has been so far. I would have to say I symbolize my life as a heart, zebra, purple, and then I live my life through the scripture from Philippians 4:13 “ I can do all things through Christ …show more content…

I am a peaceful person and I do not like friction between anyone or with anything. I am usually the person who tries mending broken relationships and advise people on how to solve their issues. I have a clear conscious knowing I have been nothing but great than to hold grudges against someone or something. I must say my ambition needs a little improving but I am very ambitious about being a great mother, making myself proud, and accomplishing something out of life. Last but not least is my daily motto and philosophy in life, which is “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Personally I have to retain this in my mind at all times throughout the day just so I don’t fold under any pressure and give up. When I think about this scripture it’s like a ray of sunshine, all anxiety is gone and I feel like I cannot be defeated. The way I look at is it that with God on your side nothing is impossible because all of your help comes from him. So I know if I put him first then everything that is for me will happen just for me. Furthermore, as the days go by I learn more and more new things about myself that I didn’t know the day before and I am quite sure that a year from now I will probably have about 4 more items to add to this list but for right now

    ...is seems to line up well with the serenity prayer: “Lord, give me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”  Our task as humans is to discern these wills in our lives and separate them.  We must not become embittered, but rather empowered, clinging to the knowledge that there is an ever-benevolent God constantly working for our good, and that he always has a plan for us amidst trial presented by life on earth.  In order to discern this will though, we have to be on the lookout for it with an awareness of its separateness from our own fears and desires.  This discernment is also difficult because of our limited perspectives as humans, and thus we need humility in our search.  The most important thing, however, is the search itself: we must all continue to search for the will.

    We can gain hope in the verse “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak” Psalms 40:29. Another verse that can encourage us is Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Even though we may feel quite little and powerless, all we must do is ask Christ for help and we will be able to “do all things through Christ”. This includes overcoming sin that we as humans don’t have the power to overcome by ourselves. I don’t know about you, but this makes me extremely thankful for our God who cares for us and is willing to use His strength to save

  • Our Insecurity and the Human Predicament

    Overall, the real question in the end after reflection, inquiry, and acknowledgement is whether I, or any other, can choose to trust in God. Will we choose to rise above our insecurities and habits, and do what promotes justice? Will we have the “courage to be” during this difficult realization, and the courage to choose God over ourselves? If, and when we do, we will realize the only thing more important than our insecurities are the people God tells us to call our brothers, and sisters in our greater community.

  • Memoir of My Mother

    1541 Words  | 4 Pages

    It seemed like a normal day when I entered Mrs. A’s AP Language and Composition class, but little did I know that she was going to assign a very important project that was going to take forever. I took my seat and wrote down what was on the board. Then I sat patiently and waited for Mrs. A to come explain what we were doing today. When the tardy bell rang, Mrs. A glided into the room and gave us all a stack of papers. She then proceeded to discuss our upcoming assignment, a memoir. As she explained the very important assignment, I wondered whom I would write about. No one really came to mind to write about and I thought for sure I would never be able to get this thing done on time. I finally decided that I would write in on my mother, Kari Jenson. I knew I would probably put the project off until the very end and do it the weekend before even though it would get on my mom’s nerves. Putting work off was just how I did everything, it worked for me. When I arrived home from school that day, I told mom about the project. I told her I would most likely write it about her and she was overjoyed.

  • Essay On The Power Of The Present

    1791 Words  | 4 Pages

    And in order to enjoy the present, you must learn to forget the pain of yesterday, learn to smile, take your focus from yesterday’s accomplishments and reach out to what you can accomplish today. Stop living in past glories, start with what you have today. Living in the past of future can rob you of your ability to be in control of your life. It means that you are giving up living your life and your ability to create and make changes to your life. All changes are better made in the now, you can’t make changes to the past because it is gone, neither can you make changes to the future because it has not arrived, the only place that you can make changes is Now. Leaving in the present means that you are mindful of every detail of whatever experience you are involved in. In life most people are not mindful, so they would live life without paying attention to what is going on with or around them. If you keep worrying about the past or the future, you will miss out on the changes you could have made now that would affect the future The worst part about living in the past or the future is that you’re giving up your ability to take control of your life. If you’re not living now, you’re giving up your life. You are giving up your ability to create. If there are changes you’d like to make in life, the best time to do it is NOW. Jesus said don’t worry about tomorrow. Forget the losses of yesterday and focus on what you have presently, the friends and family you have now, the money you have now, the ideas you have now and thank God for them. Apostle Paul said, “Be content with such things as you have as He has said He will never leave nor forsake you so that we may boldly say The Lord is my helper”. Be aware that the hurt you feel about the past is not in the present and no matter what happened in the past, your present memory of it is what is giving life to

    The biggest thing that I’ve been dealing with and at this time still struggle with is in finding my self-worth. Some may also call it self-confidence. I feel that I have tended to confuse God’s love for me as primarily traveling through vessels, i.e. other people in the body of Christ. I all too often can look back on my past and see the points where I felt the most apart from God and tie them in with instances where I had torn relationships with past friends in the church. Throughout this struggle though, I have continued to feel the presence of God, through the Holy Spirit, comforting me and guiding me on this spi...

  • Spiritual Formation Reflection Paper

    995 Words  | 2 Pages

    I have almost gone into hiding, if you will, from God because I feel that I cannot be forgiven over and over of the same sins. “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do” (New International Version, Romans 7.15). I realize, however, that in my weakness that Jesus’s power is made perfect. “Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12.7-10). The absence of the fruits of the Spirit in my life inhibits the kingdom of God in my life in that His power is not fully noticed in my actions and character. Being in Christ and belonging to His kingdom sets me apart from the world and so I am to live for Him and serve him while seeking His kingdom first. When lost in my desires of the flesh, I am not seeking His kingdom. Rather, I am seeking my own desires and

  • Childhood Autobiography

    1343 Words  | 3 Pages

    Two-thirds of children who participate in extracurricular activities are expected to attain at least a bachelor’s degree, whereas only half of children that do not participate do (National Center for Education Statistics, 1995). Childhood is a very important time in our lives, a time when we develop many vital skills that follow us into adulthood. Some people laugh or scoff at us parents that keep our children to busy schedules. Those same people would also argue that our children should be allowed to have a childhood, to not be so tightly scheduled in their daily lives. Before jumping on that bandwagon, I would suggest doing a little research. Participating in after-school activities has shown to benefit children in many ways. Children should
