Peppermint Hot Chocolate and Selling Myself Short
Peppermint Hot Chocolate
Ingredient’s:
1 1/2 cup of milk of your choice. I used Almond Milk
1/2 cup of coco powder
1 chocolate candy bar or chocolate chips
2 candy canes
Instructions:
Add your milk, candy bar, candy canes, and coco powder into a medium size sauce pan.
Heat on medium heat and stir frequently until the ingredients melt.
Once the candy canes and chocolate bar have melted. Let the hot chocolate cool off for your desired temperature.
Grab your favorite mug and pour the hot chocolate in.
Top it off with your favorite toppings. I used whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and crushed candy canes.
Enjoy! This was a little too sweet for me, so if you don’t like extra sweet drinks maybe use less of the chocolate candy bar. It was still good though :)
Dear me,
I’m sorry for not fully loving everything about you. I’m sorry that I have been comparing you to so many women and neglecting who God created you to be.
I'm sorry that I make you feel basic because of what other people look like and have. I’m sorry that I have been measuring our worth to other people's journeys, lifestyle, clothes, bank accounts, blogs/business, and relationships. I’m sorry I have turned our mind into a less than battlefield everyday.
I am sorry that I don’t tell you that you are beautiful everyday. I am sorry that I don’t express gratitude to you everyday. You have a lot to be grateful for. I am sorry that I have been discontent with the life you have.
You have a great life. You are doing great. You are making a huge impact in this world. I am sorry that I don’t give you enough credit. I am sorry that I haven’t healed from the spirit of inferiority.
I’m sorry I keep delaying our race because I keep getting off the track to stare at other runners as they run their race. I’m sorry that when I do get back on the track I can’t run because I am weighted by self pity, shame, lies, embarrassment, disappointment, anger, and doubt.
I am sorry that I have been entangled for years. You don’t deserve this life. You have so much to do and live for, but I have been holding you back.
I have been allowing that little less than girl to rob you of your “now” and “next.”
I have been so caught up in trying to get you where you want to go that I haven’t healed your heart or gave you time to enjoy life! I am so sorry.
I am so sorry that I have been selling you short of who you are and how far you have come. I have been selling your works so short. You are an amazing writer and creator.
Your words bring healing and encouragement. I have been selling your life so short. You are where you are supposed to be and you will get to your promised land.
I want you to know that you can enjoy your life while still working toward your promise. God is not in a rush. Lastly, I am so sorry for not loving you the way you should be loved. I have not been kind to you. I hope you can forgive me! No more selling you short baby girl, you are rising in pure Godfidence.
Love,
Le’nae
The root to a lot of my negative thinking, patterns of behavior, and financial bondage was the spirit of inferiority. At the age of thirty one I was operating as the little girl who felt less than since fifth grade. This little girl and I have been in a relationship for years, and this year after everything God has done in my life, has shown me, and has healed me from; I broke up with her. I was released from that unhealthy relationship and way of living. I wanted to write this letter to express my forgiveness to myself. I am grabbing my power to learn how to walk and think differently. I can’t wait to see who I become!
