#WednesdayInspiration "Woman" I am proud and honored to be called Woman. To be created in such divineness, shaped in such loveliness. To be given the gift to reproduce and carry life. To be given the opportunity to be called mother, sister, auntie, niece, friend, lover, and wife. To be able to stand on the shoulders of the great Queens before me. To have called them, Mother, Grandmother, Nana, Auntie, And Godmother. To call them Sister, Mentor, and Friend. I am blessed to be called Woman. To share with others divine light and love. To encourage, inspire, motivate, and to support. I am my Sister's keeper. I am a shoulder, a hand, an ear, an intercessor, and champion. I am me and I am her. To my beautiful Sisters; I salute you. I honor you. I sing your praises. As long as I have breath in my body, life in my soul, I will support, uphold, and pray for you. Blessings. ©RutheMcDonald Happy International Women's Day! #InternationalWomensDay #authorruthemcdonald #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #authors #iamrue #iamruemcdonald #iamruefox #writersconfession #writerscommunity #inspirationalauthor #lifeslessons #wcw #inspirationalwriter #bnw #selfie #bnwselfie #Black and white #bnwphoto #nyc #nycgirl #ruefox™ #johnrue™

#WritersConfession It's all about the chocolate... And Ice Cream!!! O.M.G! Orgasmlicous! (Yes! That's a word! MY word... But still a word nonetheless! 😂😂😂) You have no idea how long it has been since I've had chocolate or ice cream 😩😩😩 More than a year!!! I damn near fell the hell out from the sugar rush alone!!! Lol This..this...frozen #chocolate dome with rich chocolate and vanilla ice creams on a chocolate sponge cake sitting in a pool of chocolate ganache and fresh, sweet and slightly tart strawberries on the side...Mmmmmm...hold on...having a moment here.....*INSERT SEXY MUSIC HERE*............... OK...I'm back! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm going to try and describe this again! Lol the pleasant taste of the milk chocolate, with the coolness and velvety smooth creaminess of the ice cream, combined with the deep rich dark cocoa of the cake and the smooth bittersweet taste of the ganache forming a symphony of flavors on my tongue; adding the sweet and tart strawberries causing an explosion of flavors and textures bursting in my mouth, sending signals to my senses causing an overload of sensations...Man! If I smoked, I need a cigarette after this dessert!!!! 😂😂😂😂 Or, it could be that I just haven't had it in more than a year, sooooo.....Lol 😂😂 In any case, this was one helluva a Valentines Dessert!!! #happyvalentinesday #chocolatedessert #icecream #coco #foodie #foodporn #dessert #cake #foodgasm #foodilysm #iamrue #iamruefox #iamruemcdonald #writerscommunity #allthingschocolate #love #ilovedessert #baking #livelaughlove

#BlackHistory I am Black History...Period. All Day, Every Day. I am Black History From the rising of the Sun To the going down of the same. I am Black History Every time I open my mouth And speak words of either Life or Death. I am Black History Carrying the lessons of the King and Queen who bore me, Of those who reared me. I am Black History With every act and decision, Every choice I make in this earth. I am Black History Whether I know it, Believe it, Accept it, Or not. The lives of my ancestors run through my veins and that alone, makes it so. I am Black History Even when I leave this earth And my Essence returns Whatever I did in this life will Speak for itself and live in the lives and generations of the seeds I bear and leave behind. I am Black History. All Day, Every Day Just by being me. And I will make it a great one. God says this of me. ©Ruthe McDonald. #BlackHistory #AuthorRutheMcDonald #Author #Blacklife #writersconfessions #writersofig #inspirationalauthor #fictionauthor #novelist #iamrue #iamruefox #iamruemcdonald #nyc #nycgirl #selfie #Blackhistorymonth #loveyourlife #knowyourhistory #RueFox™

God is doing extraordinary things through the lives of ordinary people with an ordinary life.  No special skills needed; just a willing heart.

#ThursdayInspiration "God Has It" In my life's journey, one of the most valuable lessons that I have learned is that no matter what I face in this life, when I trust God and believe in what He has spoken to me, all things work out for my good. He is still in charge and has the final say on all things concerning me. Certainly, I do not like many things that I am faced with. Sometimes I may even feel that life is not fair. That may be true, but God is just. And whatever He has ordained for my life, He will be certain to see it come to fruition and that whatever trial I face, I will and can overcome as long as I am in a place of faith and belief and trust Him where I cannot trace Him. I do not know how you get through from day to day. Or, if you even believe in God, or the Spirit, mind, and body connection. But as for me—I believe in God, my Creator, my Savior. I believe that there is more to life than what I can physically see, hear, feel, touch, or taste. I believe wholeheartedly in the connection between the natural and supernatural realm, and that there are indeed things I may not understand or can explain; but as long as I trust God, He will reveal the truth and meaning in due season. It does not matter what I face in this life, as long as I place my trust in God and do what I am supposed to do—God will take care if the rest. He will certainly justify my faith. No matter what, God has it...and He definitely has me. #authorruthemcdonald #Reflections4Life™ #Godhasit #outbelieve #lifestyle #lifelessons #lifesjourney #inspiration #inspirationalauthor #writer #writersconfession #writerscommunity #authors #authorsofinstagram #iamrue #iamruefox #selfie #tbt #tbtselfie #throwbackthursday #johnrue™ #ruefox™ #nyc #nycgirl #mentor #consultant

The heart knows the truth. It is the unconditional, powerful, transforming, healing, life-changing, love of God that makes all of the difference. Believe and have faith. There is nothing more powerful. God is love, and His love for us is stronger than anyone and anything. At the end of the day, and every battle—it will always be the love of God that destroys the enemy while simultaneously renewing and uncovering what God has already placed in our hearts. God will bring to pass every promise He has given; every vision He has shown, and every promise He has made. Stand your ground against the devil. Stand in the uncompromising unconditional love of the Father, and always come straight from the heart.

#fbf "What Day You?" Words are powerful. What we think and speak creates who we are and where we go in this life. Consider the words you utter. Do they exalt and encourage? Or, do they criticize and tear down. Love yourself enough to guard your tongue, and to clean the negative thoughts. After all; God made you and He makes no mistakes. #reflections4life™ #encouragement #powerofwords #powerofthoughts #selflove #noh8 #judgementfreezone #selfacceptance #Livelaughlove #ruthemcdonald: #iamruemcdonald #abeautifulmouth #iamruemcdonald #iamruefox™

#IHaveDreams ""Keep Believing" I have dreams...lots of them. Many have already come to pass, and I know the rest will follow also. Even if I am not here, in this earth, to see them manifest. I have dreams that were placed in me as a child. And every time one dream comes to pass, another is birthed to take its place. A continuous cycle of hope, dreams, visions, and aspirations. All of the dreams are not for me. They're for those who are a part of me. Those in my heart and soul. Whether they are blood or not. Whether they are known or unknown. The dreams I have are life. Life for me, life for them, for those God has ordained to receive. I have seen many fulfilled, and I continue diligently to see the others be fulfilled, as well. I will leave a legacy, and inheritance for when my essence returns to my Creator for eternity. But my dreams? They will live on. Live on in the lives of those God has blessed to be a part of my life and a benefactor of the seeds I now sow. My name is Ruthe Rosana Marie Fox. I am a force in the earth. A valuable and powerful force. My dreams are important. I am important. My life has value. My dreams are powerful. And they will manifest. Because I believe in me and I trust in my God. He always has my back, and He tends to my dreams, to see that they come to pass right on time. And every dream killer, every naysayer does not answer to me--they answer to Him. Against God? No. They cannot win. Never. #whatloveteachesme™ #iamruefox™

Our victory, sometimes, may not depend on how good we fight or how strong and capable we are. It may depend upon how obedient and trusting of God we are. Our victory can very well be in the act of surrender to God, His will, and His ways.

I sincerely believe that a heartache can actually become a blessing in disguise. If, we allow God to do what He desires to do in our lives. Do not wallow in your heartaches. Acknowledge and be honest about what you are feeling. Then allow God to lead you to a place of comfort and healing in Him.

[ruthemcdonald]

There have been many delays, setbacks, and heavy things that have shaken our faith. But never lose faith. Never stop hoping. Hope is the very substance that faith is made of. Be tenacious, like a child who is relentless is asking their parent for that thing they want so much. Do not give up on the promises of God. Be like that child, and have faith that your Father will do just what He said.

#FridayInspiration "Over The Years" Sometimes it's good to look back over the years...to see how far God has brought you. To see how much you've changed, and hopefully grown and matured. It's also good to see you pass those moments you thought you'd never make it through. Those trials and tests that you thought would overwhelm and drown you. But here you are; years later, standing strong and ready to face another day. From childhood to teenage, from young adult to, "I-am-a-grown-ass-woman/man" stage. 😆 Celebrate your victories and milestones. Celebrate the tests and trials you made it through, and the lessons you've gained in the process. And never despise humble beginnings. They add to your character. #fbf #reflections4life™ #instamood #AuthorRutheMcDonald #author #WritersConfession #overtheyears #Iamruefox #iamruemcdonald #flashbackfriday #selfie #fbfselfie #happyfriday #lifelessons #loveyourself #celebrateyou #iwokeupblessed

#ThursdayInspiration Two of my most favorite words as an Author. It means I have completed yet another assignment; another labor of love; another task of baring my soul. It's an exhilarating feeling. They are also two of the most powerful words that anyone might hear, depending upon your perception. Allow me to encourage you today, to see "The End" as the best two words you will ever hear today Today is #THEEND for every problem in your life. Today is "the end" for every hurt, pain, and insecurity that has held you back from living your best life. Today is "the end" for you accepting any lies, manipulation, and abuse. Today is "the end" of you seeing yourself as unworthy, unlovable, and desireable. Today is "the end" of you accepting scraps, crumbs, and leftovers. Today is "the end" of you procrastinating when it comes to living your best life. Today is "the end" of you not saying exactly what it is you want, and going after it. Today is "the end" of the enemy's reign of terror in your life. You are a child of God and thereby have authority to kick the devil's arse! You, my Beloved, deserve to walk in your #greatness that God has already ordained in you. You just have to believe it, see it, and own it. Point. Blank. Period. The. End. 😙😙😙 #reflections4life™ #AuthorRutheMcDonald #WritersConfession #motivation #livelaughlove #lifelessons #life #befree #nomorecrap #lifesjourney #LivingAuthentically #yesyoucan #inspireyourself #inspiration #staywoke #positivity #Iamruefox #iamruemcdonald #igaddict #igers #nyc #nycgirl
