In God I Trust

Proverbs 28:26 says, "whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered."

When I first started this blog back in 2013 I named it, In Sharon's Head and about two years ago I changed it to, In Sharon's Heart. You know why? Because this head of mine has gotten me in a bind or two regarding the things I acted on that didn't have my best interest. I relied more on my mind than what God placed in my heart. And I realized that it was wiser to go with God than with Sharon. Although things have not turned out perfect -- they never will -- they turned out much better than they would have if God were not a part of them. I made foolish decisions and just as the scripture above says, it was because I trusted more in myself than walking in the wisdom of the Lord. 

I'm glad it finally sank in that God was the better choice 100% of the time. I'm glad God had patience with me in trying to get this walk right. Of course, like all of us, I'm still a big time WIP (Work in Progress), but at least I know that God was with me all the time and remains with me today. I'm in a much better place, because it is in God I trust now and forever more.

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up.

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa...

Protecting My Peace - Day 95 - We Have to Stop Giving Away Our Power

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. Are you giving away your power? Are you letting people take control over our lives? If so, it’s time to stop operating like that. If we’re letting anyone influence us to the point that it’s causing us emotional pain or taking our peace, we have to move away from such people. It doesn’t matter if it’s in a personal or professional environment. Stay positive and productive in the process though, because dealing with challenges are part of the life process. Nevertheless, we can “fight” for our right for peace and respect. We just fight smart and continue to know who we are, especially who we are in Christ Jesus.
