Saturday Seven + February Round Up

March 4, 2017 By Ruthie Ridley 29 Comments

Happy Saturday friends!! I am starting a new weekly series called “Saturday Seven” where I will be  highlighting my top 7 items in a certain category! With fashion, this comes easy to me in so many ways, so I thought I would share some things I love, in hopes to inspire you weekly!!  I will be doing this in preparation for Spring and as we transition into big seasons!!  Remember that you can shop all of my posts! Simply click on the item to check it out! Take a look at my top 7 distressed denim picks this week!! Jeans are perfect for the Spring months and a few of these are high on my wish list!!

 

 DL1961// Top Shop Ankle Skinny // ASOS // H&M Boyfriend // ASOS Dr. Denim // H&M Skinny Ripped // H&M Skinny Ankle

 

 

Word Of The Week: 

“…For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:17

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever thingsare lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” Philipians 4:18

Lately there has been such an outward focus in my heart and my mind (shortcomings, weight, looks, goals, weaknesses, fears). I’m realizing that it is really easy to get caught up on things that don’t matter if I am not constantly renewing my mind with truth.  So many times this week I felt like the Lord was saying… pause, listen to yourself… “Will this matter in the end?” “You are making things way bigger than they are.”  Not to get weird on y’all but focusing on eternal issues (faith, growth, maturity, fruit) are way more important than focusing on worldly matters, which is is to say and  very hard to do.  Thank God for grace and a new start every day.  As I prepare to start a new week I am hoping to shift things in my heart.  I am looking to think and see more like God, where He focuses on the heart and things that matter eternally! Happy Saturday friends and I look forward to seeing you again next week for another Saturday Seven and Word Of The Week!!

    I’ve always thought “why would I buy jeans with holes in them?”, but it’s a style that has grown on me. I need a pair of distressed jeans in my closet.

    Along with every little thing which appears to be building within this subject material, many of your points of view happen to be very radical. Nonetheless, I appologize, because I do not give credence to your whole theory, all be it exhilarating none the less. It looks to everybody that your opinions are actually not totally justified and in actuality you are your self not entirely certain of your assertion. In any case I did appreciate reading through it.

    You lost me, friend. Get real, I imagine I get what youre saying. I am aware what you’re saying, nevertheless, you just appear to have forgotten that might be other sorts of folks from the world who view this challenge for which it happens to be and might perhaps not go along with you. You might be turning away much individuals who had been lovers of this website.

    My wife and i felt really ecstatic when Albert could round up his preliminary research through the entire ideas he gained while using the web site. It is now and again perplexing to simply continually be making a gift of techniques people today have been making money from. And we consider we have you to thank because of that. The specific illustrations you made, the straightforward site navigation, the friendships you can help to foster – it’s all incredible, and it is helping our son and our family consider that the theme is satisfying, which is certainly very pressing. Thanks for all the pieces!http://www.twitch/activate

I honestly went back and forth on sharing this but I honestly went back and forth on sharing this but why not 🤪. I left the worst ones out 😅

Online hate is wild to me. People behind a screen saying whatever they want not realizing it actually affects real people.

I posted a simple cute video of Ben and I going from regular clothes to our work uniforms. it went viral, which is a chance you take so I got a lot of love which I’m thankful for but a lot of hate as well.. these were all strangers, people who don’t know that we’ve been married almost 18 years, have a beautiful family, genuinely love each other, and love what we do and the people we serve 👮‍♂️ 👩🏾‍⚕️ 🩺 

You expect it to some extent but I didn’t realize how much words could still affect me…I’m 41 almost 42. It really doesn’t matter how old you are words still hit.

I’m not sharing this for sympathy just a reminder before you leave a mean comment on someone’s page whether it’s a stranger, someone you know, or someone with a big platform think twice. Words matter & they  impact people more than you think.

And don’t worry I got a new wig this week 😝💀🤣

This time last year I was unexpectedly renewing my This time last year I was unexpectedly renewing my Nursing 🩺👩🏾‍⚕️ license after leaving my job in 2020 and spending five years at home with my kids creating content full time. To say I was shocked to be reentering the workforce is an understatement. Sometimes life shifts and you just have to roll with it 😮‍💨

I am SO thankful I had the opportunity to go back to work but it was hard. I felt like I failed in my business & I was down BAD 😝 But I realized something….God makes NO MISTAKES.

I LOVE my current job & I STILL get to create content, but now it feels more authentic and true to who I am😌

I am dancing because I can & because I am thankful. Your life can change SO much in a year, overnight or In a MOMENT. Trust God with your life. He will NEVER let you down 🤍
The Cop 👮‍♂️/ Nurse 👩🏾‍⚕️Comb The Cop 👮‍♂️/ Nurse 👩🏾‍⚕️Combo😝!!! You already know life is crazy, there is no “work-life balance” & we have stories to exchange for dayyys!!! 

If you’re new here, then I’ll give you a little bit of a backstory but also if you’ve been here for a while because a lot has changed in the last year 🤪. 

I became a nurse at 19 after graduating high school early, raised in a very purpose driven Jamaican home. Nursing was never just a job for me. It was provision, connection, and a way to serve people from all walks of life.

In 2020, I stepped away from nursing to pursue content creation full time, and it truly felt like a dream!!! The biggest blessing was the time it gave me with my family. Being present, raising my kids, and soaking in every moment 🥲

Then almost exactly a year ago, May 15, God called me back to nursing, and I couldn’t believe it. The transition was not easy, but it has been one of the greatest blessings. My heart is so full, and I have never felt more aligned in what I do.

God knows what He is doing. He makes no mistakes 🤍 Where are my nurses, law enforcement, and first responders at 🙋🏾‍♀️

There are seasons where God takes years and decades to answer prayers (and I’m still waiting for some of those) and then there’s the moments where God answers your prayers hours or a day later. He’s amazing in the suddenly and he’s amazing in the waiting. Thankful for the journey✨Thankful for his faithfulness - thankful that even as I wait - He is still good😌

The way she spoke about healing, freedom, and using your own story to create change was both powerful and deeply moving. Her journey is a reminder that what we walk through doesn’t have to define us — but it can shape the way we serve others.
