This Is My Blooming Season
Friday, April 11, 2025

Scripture of the Day: “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NIV)
 
Sis, pause for a moment. Look around you. Look at where you are today. Look at what you’ve survived. Look at the growth in you that you didn’t even realize was happening. This right here… this season… this moment in your life — it matters. Everything you have been through, every tear you have cried, every mistake you thought disqualified you, was a part of your becoming. It wasn’t meant to break you — it was meant to build you. Ecclesiastes 3:1 reminds us that there is a time and season for everything. There was a time for your wilderness. There was a season for your struggle. There was a chapter that looked like darkness. But sis, this is your season to BLOOM. This is your season to rise. This is your season to heal. This is your season to love yourself fully. To forgive yourself completely. To walk in peace, purpose, and power. God didn’t allow you to survive all that mess just to stay stuck in survival mode. He is shifting you from just existing to fully living. He is shifting your story from pain to purpose. This season is sacred. This season is about you becoming HER — the healed woman, the bold woman, the resilient woman, the unstoppable woman you were always destined to be. But here’s the truth — growth requires release. You cannot bloom holding on to what God is calling you to let go of. Old habits. Old thoughts. Old environments. Old identities. This season requires a new mindset, a new focus, and a new level of faith. Are you ready to walk boldly into your new season?
 
Reflection: What season of life do you feel like you are in right now? What is God calling you to release so you can fully bloom into the woman He created you to be?
 
Action Steps for Today: Write down what season you believe you are walking into. Give it a name — Healing, Peace, Freedom, Growth, or New Beginnings. Write a list titled “What I’m Leaving Behind” and another list titled “What I’m Walking Into.” Pray over both lists. Tear up or throw away the “Leaving Behind” list as a symbolic act of release.
 
Affirmation of the Day: This is my season to bloom. I am no longer stuck. I am no longer bound. I am walking boldly in the new thing God is doing in my life.
 
Mind Altering Step: Catch one negative thought today and refuse to let it live rent-free in your mind. When a thought comes that says, “You’ll never change,” respond out loud with “I AM CHANGING. I AM BLOOMING. I AM HEALED.” The more you talk back to the lie, the louder the truth becomes.
 
Sis, today is not just another Friday. Today is a new chapter in your story. You are blooming again. You are rising again. You are becoming HER. And the best part is — God is right there with you, watering every part of you that thought it could never grow. Be bold today. Be intentional. Be kind to yourself. But most importantly — keep blooming.

My Journey To Resilience And Redemption

 
Hey Resilient Woman, 

My name is Dashonia Marie, and I am a woman who has experienced the depths of pain, addiction, and trauma—but also the transformative power of God’s grace and healing. My life is a testimony of how surrendering to God can bring renewal and restoration, no matter how broken the pieces may seem.
 
For years, I struggled with addiction, loss, and the scars of past trauma, but through faith and determination, I found freedom and purpose. Today, I dedicate my life to helping other women discover that same freedom. Through Encouraging Her Resilience, I strive to create resources that inspire hope, build resilience, and guide women on their journey to recovery—just as I’ve been guided on mine.
 
I believe healing is possible for every woman, no matter her story. My mission is to provide faith-based tools and encouragement to help women see their worth, embrace God’s promises, and walk boldly into the life He has planned for them. I am living proof that God can take our brokenness and turn it into something beautiful, and it is my heart’s calling to walk alongside others as they step into their own transformation.
