Embrace Divine Alignment: A Journey of Personal Growth

Cover of ‘Lioness Legacy’ by Melissa Torres, illustrating themes of empowerment and divine alignment. Today was one of those days that cracked me wide open. Not in a falling-apart kind of way—but in that breaking through kind of way. The kind that reminds you that even when it feels like everything’s stacked against you, God is still moving ✨. It started with what felt like a mistake. I walked…

Dear Diary: What I Lost Was Heavy, But What I Gained Was Holy ✨

I didn’t pray for this story. 🙏I didn’t ask for this kind of pain. 😔But somehow, through the heartbreak, betrayal, abandonment, and loss—I found God in a way I never had before.And in that holy place?I found me. 💫 There was a time I felt trapped.People described me as strong, vibrant, full of spirit—but what they didn’t see was how much I was holding back.One neighbor once called me a caged…

Dear Diary: Closed Doors, Open Peace ☯︎

Dear Diary: Closed Door, Open Peace ☯︎ Not every chapter ends with closure.Some just fade. Some slam shut. And some? You have to close yourself. 🕊️ I used to replay the scenes. Rewrite the words.
