STOP!

Stop allowing people to force you to be someone you’re not comfortable being!

Stop staying in places you’re uncomfortable!

Stop holding your peace when doing so hurts you!

Stop thinking you HAVE to go, do, be, or give!

Stop believing you can’t say no!

Stop pouring all of yourself into people, places, and things!

Stop thinking you don’t need to rest!

Stop acting strong, all the time!

Stop saying you’re okay when you’re not!

Stop acting like you don’t need help!

Stop devaluing your worth!

Stop holding back!

Stop giving the enemy credit!

Stop thinking God won’t do what you need!

Stop believing you don’t need relationships!

Stop condemning yourself!

Stop holding unforgiveness!

Stop self-sabotaging!

Stop the self-doubt!

Stop being bullied by fear!

Stop explaining your place, purpose, and anointing to people who don’t have the capacity or care to accept you!

Stop holding yourself back because somebody can’t understand why it’s you!

Stop believing the good of God can’t be for you!

Stop thinking you need a sign. You ARE the sign!

In 2024, find your voice, your strength, your belief, your trust, your get-up, your reason to go on, your plan of how to try again, and your ability! This year, trust God and you.
