bolic, they were of utmost relevance as tangible representations of the position, significance, and authority we possess as Daughters of the King. We were encouraged by the conference host, that our crowns were to be worn at all times and that we should, for the duration of the event, expect God’s favor. I was faced with the daunting thought, “How many times, had I taken my crown off in life and forfeited my Purpose?” Had I forgotten that I was Royalty and the lives of Photography by Audra Mac Photography others depended on me completing my task? Had I become complacent and begun to walk in mediocrity? Was I going to settle for less because the best was yet to come? Are you guilty of taking your crown off as well? Have you become content, immersing in a self-absorbed victim mentality as a subject, or worse, a pauper? Have your frustrations led to you putting limits on your King’s authority? If so, please renounce those actions. I would like to suggest one of the many exercises we were implored to carry out at the conference. We were each given three rocks and instructed to list on each rock something that we vowed to change in our lives and by which we would no longer be hindered. Many of the rocks displayed words such as depression, discourage- ment, procrastination, laziness, and so many more that had for weeks, months, or even years weighed us down and blinded us to our true beauty and worth. As an illustration of permanent removal, we cast them into the lake, trading our rocks to reclaim our Royalty. I am not certain how the hierarchy is established or maintained for Royalty in the world, but I do know that I was adopted by God into a Royal family. Will you join me in trading your rocks for Royalty? Thanks DITR and Gem Makers for reminding us that we are Princesses. ~ Cynthia Harper As a motivational speaker and Certified Life Coach, Cynthia Harper has encouraged countless numbers of individuals to embark upon the journey of finding and embracing their purpose.
