A season for renewal 🪴

 New post! 

This season is a time for renewal: “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” (Ecclesiasties 3:1)🪴 


Ever since my Instagram got hacked, I honestly haven’t felt very inspired to write. I feel like the inspiration I usually receive, when it comes to my blog, usually comes quick and I can’t seem to write it down fast enough. But as of late, I just haven’t felt inspired- 😞until I was walking up to my door the other day and spotted some green little plant life popping out of the ground. 


I stopped and paused to take a photo and the thoughts that began to swirl around my mind were thoughts of renewal, strength, and peace. 🕊 By definition renewal means to “give fresh life or strength to; revive.”


 Each spring the plants 🌱 come to life again! And just like you and I, each Sunday we have the opportunity to renew ourselves. To renew the covenants we have made with God. To use Jesus Christ’s Atonement more in our lives to start anew.


Spring gives us the opportunity to become better, to stand taller, to rid bad habits, and to start new ones. To be kinder to ourselves and one another and to grow. 🌷Don’t be so hard on yourselves- the world is going to throw enough rotten things at us, that we all need to  remember to show ourselves more love. You deserve it! 


“You can change. 

You can be a little better.

You can stand a little taller.

You can love a little deeper.


You can pick a different path.

You can walk a different walk.

You can find forgiveness. And joy.


You can become your best you.

Because He gave his life, 

YOU can change yours.”


So as we all embark on this new season in our lives with the beautiful weather outside and the new LIFE that is growing and sprouting around us, remember that CHANGE can be a beautiful thing.🐣 


Remember that YOU have worth. Remember that you can become better, because in the end what and who we grow into and change into is what matters. It’s not our marital status, how much money we made in our life, what job we held, etc. it’s how we treated one another. It’s the hardships we went through, the lessons that followed, the faith and hope that we gained, and the person we became. 💗😌

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
