Hello beautiful people! 

I am glad you are here! 

I am Jessi Delgado, and I am a happy and busy mama of three wonderful kids.  Recently my husband was called to the presence of the Lord.  I'd like to share my grief journey through hope.  
 
I blog about my grief journey and what God shows me through His Word.  I pray my that as you read my blogs you are blessed.



 
All I needed to do was to find out what God says about me
 God wants me to take care of myself
When the doctor told me I was on the verge of having diabetes, I knew I had to change the unhealthy lifestyle I had been on.

The first thing that I had to work on was my mindset. Thinking self-care was not for me was the wrong mindset.   I opened my bible and I read what God had to say about self-care

  • My body is the temple of the Holy Spirt (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
  • I was wonderfully created. (Psalms 139:13-24
  • I can do this (Philippians 4:13)
  • God wants me to be healthy (3 John 1:3)
  • Satan wants to destroy me, but if I trust God I will be ok (1 Peter 5:7-9)
  • My body is for God's glory (Romans 12:1-2)
  • I am God's workmanship (Ephesians 2:10)
Loving myself did not mean I had to change the core of who I am, but accepting myself just as I am.  Loving myself meant to take care of my body.  Loving myself meant to put my needs as a priority. Loving myself meant spending more time with God and discovering who I truly am.   

The season I am currently in, as a widow, has impacted the way I view life.  I have allowed God to heal my heart, and although I still have ways to go, I can tell you that I feel the strength of the Lord in me.  

I pray I can encourage you and inspire you to start loving yourself today. 

Jessi ðŸ’– 

What does Self-Care mean to you?
 




For me, self-care means taking care of my needs in order to better care for my beloved family. I have learned that giving from an empty cup is exhausting and draining.   For the longest time, I used to put everyone's needs before my own.
Even my relationship with God suffered because I did not take the time to pray or read the Bible.      

Since I decided to love myself to take care of my needs I became a better mom and a better wife because now my life is full.
