the revelation: when we realize we're that bitch post-breakup
captured by royel, fashion district, 2025
today we're diving into that magical moment when it hits us - we've become that bitch after a breakup. you know what we're talking about - that instant when we see ourselves through new eyes and recognize our own worth. it's like a supernova exploding in our souls, illuminating all the strength and beauty we've always had within. as proverbs 31:25 reminds us, "strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come."
but here's the tea, sisters. while it's crucial to embrace our newfound independence, we gotta keep it humble. let's remember, our worth isn't defined by the relationships we've left behind or the ones we're moving towards. it's about recognizing our intrinsic value as children of god. let's meditate on psalm 103:13-14: "as a father has compassion on his children, so the lord has compassion on those who fear him; for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust." let these words sink in and fuel our self-love journey.
now, we know it's tempting to flaunt our new status, laugh at our exes, or make them feel small. trust me, we've all been there. but that's not the path of grace, ladies. instead, let's focus on our own growth and healing. let's use this time to rediscover ourselves, pursue our passions, and strengthen our relationship with christ. as it says in zephaniah 3:17, "the lord your god is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing." let's allow that love to fill us up and overflow to others as we step into our newfound confidence.
lastly, let's remember that our exes are on their own journeys too. while we're embracing our inner strength, they might be struggling. let's show compassion, even from a distance. we can pray for their healing and growth. and speaking of prayer, let's close with one: lord jesus, thank you for your unfailing love. as we navigate this season of change and self-discovery, guide us to walk in confidence and humility. help us to see ourselves through your eyes and to treat others, including our exes, with kindness and respect. strengthen us to become the women you've called us to be, without losing sight of your grace. in your name we pray, amen.
stay blessed and keep shining.
