About Me

Meet Keila Nelums, Founder of OWV

Hello! Thanks for visiting my blog. I started One Woman of Virtue (OWV) a ministry for women because there are so many of us that have been wounded by the storms of life trying to figure out how to make it through. I don't like to speak about anything that I know nothing about or haven't gone through myself. We should desire a relationship with God more Than anything.

My Purpose

I love writing, and living a healthy lifestyle while teaching others to do the same. I love to travel and just life in general, I'm so thankful to God for His Holy Spirit. I encourage you to visit as much as you like, I will definitely be posting words to keep you focused on Christ.

My sisters be blessed and stay on the path of righteousness to God.

Who Do You Represent?

This year has been one of total conviction and divine revelation for me and I'm beyond greatful to God. Like I said in my last post, I went though a very tough season this past year and As I slowly allowed the Holy Spirit to fully dwell within me again after grieving it almost to death, the question "who do you represent?" Screamed loudly in my head. With every sinful action that took place I would hear that question and it crippled my heart. Those words were in my head day...and night. I was so convicted. I was lead by the Holy Spirit to put my pen down and open my bible daily. So during this pruning season, God was shaking the mess out of me like wake up daughter! You're falling asleep again! I cried so many nights and I fought back like a chid. I was corrected consistently. I began to wake up. Blinders came off and I started seeing things spiritually. I became completely disgusted with myself and repented immediately as I was beginning to see how lukewarm I...

How to Beat the Defeated Mindset

Have you ever gotten into a situation that didn’t go anything like you planned? The first thought is to feel frustrated, defeated and hopeless. Your mind begins to create situations that haven’t even happened making you feel like you’re stuck. Next, you lose motivation to be proactive in changing your unfavorable circumstances. You may even begin to succumb to feelings of sadness and depression. That’s a spirit that you must free yourself of. How do we do that? Through prayer and constant communication with God no matter how you bad you think things are and making a choice not to let our circumstances govern our lives. Decide to win and that with God you will NEVER lose . Understand that feeling defeated is a MINDSET and a crafty trick of the enemy. There is always a way to make things better and God will order your steps if you ask and allow Him to. In order t o do this we must exercise our faith which is a little difficult when there...

The Comparison Trap vs The Divine Timeline

I used to get so stressed out when I was younger because I felt like I had to keep up with everyone else. It got worse after I became a single mom and my marriage failed because I worked extra hard to live a life that showed prosperity and success. Here is the problem, when we care too much about what people think of us instead of God, making success our idol. What motivates us to do the things we do? Providing for our families yes and that is a great motivator. However, it becomes an issue if that subtle feeling of inadequacy creeps in when we see someone else more successful than we feel we are and begin to wonder "what are they doing?" I need to do better than them, I need to do it BIG. Then we start to compare our lives to other people and the motivation shifts from pleasing God and providing for our families to showing out for the masses. When we do achieve that level of success we prayed for, we begin to ge...
