I have created this space to help encourage others during their own journey with the Lord. May this site bring you to a new way of seeing the life God has created for you, no matter your current relationship with him. If you're not ready to dive deeper in your faith but are ready to see the world more beautifully I invite you to stay awhile. Like you may be right now, a couple years ago I did not have a healthy lifestyle nor a faith to guide me. Growing up I have had to overcome many obstacles most people would not have to face until later in life. This made me mature faster than most teens. While I continue to build a healthy lifestyle and grow stronger in my faith, I will share my experiences along the way. I hope to grow together and never stop learning.

Rebirth

In the world we live in today, so many of us grow up without a dad. We spend our whole lives wondering what we did wrong, wondering why they left. We put all of our time and energy into the person who didn’t care enough about us in the first place to even stay in our lives. They didn’t care enough to even send us a birthday card. We spend nights crying ourselves to sleep wishing “daddy” was there to tuck us in. We get jealous of all the girls going to the daddy daughter dances. We are letting someone who doesn’t care about us one bit control our lives when they aren’t even in them. All because we thirst for their love and acceptance.

The Choice By: Dr. Edith Eva Eger

I highly recommend this book! I believe everyone could get something out of it and it will change the way you look at this world and the way you treat others.


There is such a deep meaning in each sentence. The outline of the book is about the author Eger and her life. She explains the way life was before, during, and after her holocaust experience. She is also a psychologist and talks about her patients stories, and the advice she gave them from her own personal experiences.

This book can be so easily relate-able to any reader. I would offer to lend out my copy, but my dogs thought it was a good book too…Hence the bite marks in the picture lol.

Live a Jesus filled life

In life we have a choice. A choice on whether or not we want to be kind to one another or mean. A choice to be grateful for what we have or complain about what we don’t have. Most importantly we have the choice on whether or not we want to live a Jesus filled life. This is a life full of Jesus. He wants to renew everything about our lives, the way we live life, and how we treat one another. Instead of clothing yourself in all name brand clothes, clothe yourself with kindness, compassion, gentleness and patience.

“And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him” (Colossians 3:17)

I love this verse because to me it’s Jesus explaining to us the way he wants us to live our lives, and how he wants us to treat others. That anything you do give it all that you have, and do it all in the name of Jesus. For he defines why we are here and all the beauty this life holds for us. So change someone’s life and proclaim Jesus!

Rockford MI

Today was filled with great talks, unconditional laughter, and funny pictures to capture the memories made.

To me one of the most important things in life is friendships, good friendships. Ones where you maybe haven’t had time to hang out in a while, but as soon as you find time to it’s like you never stopped in the first place. That’s what my friendship with Joey is like and I’m so thankful for it.

I hope as you read this, you too can think of a friend like this in your life :))

Forgiveness

I know from personal experience how exhausting it can be to be mad at a person or to “hate” them. I have been learning to forgive everyone not for them, but for me. I don’t like the way I feel when I‘m angry and am mad at someone, I feel gross inside. When you forgive someone it’s for your own well being, it takes the pressure off your shoulders. We cannot change the way people are or the things they decide to do, but we can decide to forgive. Forgiving does not mean forget. Just because you forgave someone doesn’t mean they have to be in your life again. All it means is it’s not your worry anymore, you can breathe again. The more people I have forgiven the better I feel. I pray you forgive, but never forget.


If you have any questions or want to chat about this or anything don’t hesitate.

This world is huge!

If you look out the window of an airplane preparing to land, you will see the city higher up, filled with cars and houses with people inside living a completely separate life. Knowing nothing about them at all, not even their name. This reminds me how big the world truly is. I pray these individuals keep moving forward and conquer the problems they may be facing. Seeing the world from a different angle and a different perspective is a reminder to treat everyone with kindness, because we truly have no idea the struggles one may be facing.

New year new me?

We are 2 weeks into the new year. Many of us have made New Year’s resolutions, written them down, and shared them with others, saying “new year new me.” Why can‘t it be “new year same me?” I hope you don’t want to change yourself, but want to grow into the person you wish to become. The best version of yourself.

This new year I want to become the best version of myself, to learn who I am. I want to forgive others, learn to love first, always be kind, to continually grow in my faith, as well as become healthier – mentally and physically. I don’t want to wish the days away, but to make each day count.

The new year has just begun, you’re still the same you. So be you, the best version of you. Forgive, but never forget. Love first, be happy and count your blessings – not your days.
