Life With Lexis K.

Welcome back to the blog cousins! First, I want to offer you a scripture, Romans 12:2 "Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think." I have a saying, "Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. Your actions become your reality." Maybe it's not my saying, but it's something that I say and shares the sentiment of Romans 12:2. You can change your life by changing your thoughts. That brings me to the topic of today's blog post. Where am I writing from you ask, my JOB, which I hope to only have for a week longer. What I told you last time, the best thing a job can do for me is what? OKAY! Our completed habit tracker Today, I want to share a challenge that my twin best friends and I are embarking on together. We saw it on TikTok and immediately hopped on the idea. Titled The Winter Arc , the challenge required each of us to pick three pillars where we wanted to create different habits. We then had to identify thr...

Welcome back, family! I'm so glad to be back writing for y'all. Forgive me in advance, because I admit, I feel a bit all over the place and writing always helps me ground myself.  So, this morning, I was following my regular routine. Wake and garden (iykyk), scroll on social media, pack lunches, and start my day hopefully in a positive direction.  I don't know if I told y'all, but I've been tapping into my spiritual gifts more, one of which is clairaudience. Let's hold onto that for a bit. Back to my morning routine, which needs major revision, but I digress. As I'm scrolling, I keep seeing Amos 9:13. I mean KEEP seeing it, from Twitter to TikTok. I saw about 3 videos, made on different dates, with the same message: "It's going to happen faster than you thought." I won't need months or even weeks. The change in my life I'm seeking is happening now. It's been happening for months - probably years.  Now, I don't claim to be holier...

Welcome back, family!   One thing about a job, the best thing it can do for me is motivate me to write on this blog!  I want to start with this Bible verse: 1 Peter 4:10: "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms." Lately, the message of tapping into my gifts has been ringing in my eargates. Whether in music or even on TikToks, the message of trusting my God-given gifts and talents to sustain me has been playing back and forth. But what about my reality? I have been asking my partner for months to quit my job. Before we even moved together, I was contemplating quitting. I even put in a resignation letter back in January (I was still teaching at the time). Now every day, I begrudgingly get up and dressed for work, sit in traffic, sit at a desk, and stare at a screen for hours until 5 pm. Rinse and repeat, Monday-Friday. The only thing keeping me is my desire to get a paycheck, keep...
