So time to be real… I mean I think I always am but… here is me being vunerable with what God is working on in my life.
I just got back from managing my 1st tour… to be honest in it… it was REAL ROUGH!!! Don’t ask me why but looking back it honestly wasn’t so bad and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I love how God can allow you to see the beauty in what feels like disaster. It just takes time, with that being said:
Mariah (the lead singer for MeForYou, the band I manage) she also happens to be my baby sister and I had a business meeting on Monday. Just to go over tour and our next goals/plans the meeting went well. I asked what I could do better as a manager because my honest intent and goal as a manager is to help them succeed. So she started talking to me about finding my confidence in Christ and not words of affirmation from others. Which I think I am confident and confident in Christ. But I wanted to take her words to heart and really check my heart to see if that was something I needed to work on… AND ITS TRUE… I rely a whole lot on what people say to me to find my confidence so the last two days I have been really trying to seek that from God and rely on Him. She also was telling how she understands what I’m going through (ironic that my little sister has gone through this process sooner than myself, then again I feel like this will be a life long process) and when she was beginning that process for herself she found that everyday she began to seek her confidence in Christ she started getting random text messages/phone calls from all different people telling her she was beautiful and talented and all kinds of other encouraging things. She felt like God was allowing her to have that because she was seeking Him first. Which brings me to today… I got up early went for a run and spent time in my word and as soon as I was finished I got a text message from my aunt saying “Remember you are fearfully and wonderfully made!” God is good and my aunt is freaking awesome!
if your reading this … thanks and remember that for yourself and another think that was shared with me recently “the best thing you can offer this world is your intimacy with Christ” keep that in mind as well!
Be Blessed,
Tiegra
