This week my focus is victory . Synonyms for victory you ask? S uccess. Triumph. Achievement. Conquering.  How awesome is it to feel that? To be that?  As a mom, who's still growing as I'm raising my daughter, these words can seem further or closer to my immediate truth -- just depending on what day it is 🤷‍♀️.  Some days I'll feel like I've got this adult-thing in the bag. Other days, I question my capabilities -- to take care of my child, to take care of myself.   It's not uncommon for me to feel defeated, but like a man thinketh, so he is . So I wrote these affirmations for days I need to be reminded, that " victory is mine "! I live a victorious life. I am victorious in Jesus. I am an overcomer. I am a leader. I have the power to change the flow of whatever environment I'm in.  I choose my battles wisely. I am a winner.  I overcome. I finish strong. So it is.
