Writing From The Heart, Inspired By Faith.

It's a love song you sing to yourself, it's a chant you repeat to motivate yourself, its self-love and encouragement on a low or rough day. It's like the scripture printed on my journal I wrote my rough draft in "Be brave, be strong and courageous do not be afraid for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:1 It's a life confirmation and affirmation that everything is gonna be alright ...in no time...we just have to be patient, pray, stay in peace while we wait on all the promises of God to be performed... Amen Lesia Rena Lankford is the youngest daughter of a family of eight now seven. Lesia's oldest brother Junior passed away years ago. Lesia is hardworking, loving, loyal to a fault, independent woman of God, single mother, awesome daughter, sister, aunt, niece, friend and soror. Her first book, "2 Blessed 2 Be Stressed", is a spiritual guide for a spiritual journey and was released last year during the pandemic. Her first book is a source of encouragement not only to herself but others. Lesia's current book, "Stepping Out on Faith...When I first learned to luv myself", is a continuation of stories that she will share from her life along with scriptures to bless, enrich and encourage you in this walk we call life. Lesia hopes and prays you enjoy it. Until the next story of her life, be blessed and step out on faith in all you do.

It was a mantra she would say to herself when she faced the hardships of life, and boy, did she face some hardships: "2 blessed 2 be stressed." Inspired years ago to write her book, author Lesia R. Lankford has now seen her dream, and mantra, come to life with her new book, "2 Blessed 2 Be Stressed: Spiritual Food for Your Spiritual Journey." 

Lesia, having experienced everything from financial struggle to divorce to raising her child as a single mom, wanted to inspire others to turn to God rather than those around them for comfort, wisdom, and the truth of what is ahead for the future. 

The chapter numbers represent symbolic meanings in Scripture, as the author shares parts of her life story and how God reminded her to not be stressed but instead focus on how she was blessed by Him. Whether it is lessening the effect haters have on you to remembering God in the storms of life to look forward to seeing Jesus face to face, "2 Blessed 2 Be Stressed" will ignite within you the desire to draw closer to God. 

As you go on your spiritual journey, may this spiritual food bring you awareness to live each day thankful for what the day brought rather than what it was missing.
