The last few years!


Hello there! Thanks for reading ☺️

 My mind got wandering back to the last 10 years of my life. So many things have happened, so many experiences have been lived through, and so many life lessons learned. 

I have often wondered if I would have been the same person that I am today, if the things I really wanted to happen, when I wanted them to happen had happened.

But then my mind came back to today, to the present, right here right now, to this very moment. I look back on my earthly sojourn and couldn’t help but feel so much love and gratitude that things happened the way they were supposed to. The way God planned them to happen all along. That His plan for me was always the better of the deal.

There have been countless people I have met along the way that have literally changed my life. Countless relationships that were formed with amazing individuals, at the exact moment we needed them. I honestly don’t know if I would’ve been able to meet all of them earlier than when I met them. 

I’m so grateful for God’s plan. I’m so grateful for His love that He has for you and me. I’m so grateful for the hardships.. even though, at times they truly are the last thing I would like to go through. 

Waiting on the Lord is hard and always will be, but if we have faith, hope, and a trust in God that things will improve and we will be okay-We will be more than okay. We will be so much better off. Through God, we can accomplish anything. We can do and be anything!

Life is full of surprises, twists and turns, disappointments, heartache, joy, happiness, and so many more. So always remember to be grateful and to thank God every day for all He has given you and what He will give you. We are so blessed my friends, and God will truly take us by the hand and lead us along. ♥️ #reindeerfarm #alaska #soblessed

My body: ❤️

  New post: My body: Warning ⚠️ vulnerable post ahead!  I’ve always been more on the plus size side and have really tried hard to work on myself to become more confident with my body. I’ve tried to feel comfortable in my own skin and to love and accept my body in every stage, because EVERY stage is beautiful! But I’m not perfect at it and some days are hard. I’ve recently gained some weight that has come with the stresses of life (uggg it’s the worst) life changes, etc. and have found myself absolutely CONSUMED with my body and how “awful” I think I look. 😓 I’m the girl in a room thinking of my weight and if I’m the heaviest. Constantly comparing my body to everyone else’s. I always thought that I had to have this “perfect” body to feel accepted and that if I didn’t fit this standard of beauty that I would have no value.  I find myself comparing my body to everyBODY that comes along. I remember for almost every birthday growing up, secretly wishing to be “skinny” and thinking that if

God is love ❤️

 I recently attended the funeral services of Cason’s uncle that unexpectedly passed away. Even though I didn’t know him super well, he was such a kind man! Tears fell as the talks, memories, and testimonies of his family, grandchildren, and friends were shared. I walked away feeling so uplifted ❤️🙏🏻 it was such a spiritual funeral. I think that’s the point, when loved ones pass, is to get you to reflect on your own life and the people around you. I felt so much love that day-So much care and concern that God is aware, He is in control, and He knows what we are all going through! I know God has a plan for each of His beloved children. I know He loves each and every single one of YOU! Yes, YOU. I know that not a tear falls that He doesn’t know about or of a hurtful thought that was said to you. He celebrates the good times and is there for us in the bitter times. He finds joy in the things that make us laugh and in the people we help along the way. He truly is our biggest fan and cheer

LIVE ☀️

  New post: I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting recently and realized that it’s been a while since I’ve felt inspired to write a new post.  Hardships and loss, like most thought provoking experiences we are all going to get to go through, bring lots of reflection. Loss of a loved one, compassion for those experiencing the loss, and the sorrow and grief that come along, that you don’t quite understand and realize, until you go through it yourself.  Death and change, ironically, make you think and reflect on your own life. The impact you make, the example you set, the kindness you show, the love you give freely, and the acts of service you show to others.  It (hopefully) makes you want you try harder. To be a little better. To love more. To give more. To serve more. To LIVE more. To not let the opportunities pass you by. To spend more time with the ones you love. To do the things you’ve dreamed of doing. To not sweat the small stuff and to actually LIVE. ☀️ So here’s to the new version o
