Hold on. Be strong. You are never alone. ♥️

 New post! 

Hold on. Be strong. You are never alone. ❤️

These words brought so much comfort to my troubled heart this morning as I was driving into work! 🥹🙏🏻 

At times the trials of every day life can be downright overwhelming. They can make us feel as though we are drowning and can’t catch our breath. They can consume our minds, trouble our souls, and bring so much stress and anxiety into our already crazy lives. 

I know life isn’t supposed to be easy- it’s supposed to be challenging. It is that way so that we can grow. We have to experience heartache, loss, stress, sorrow, etc. to understand and appreciate the opposites. The precious moments, the tender mercies, the joy, the happiness, and the peace. 🤍

I don’t know about you, but at times it really does feel like you’re drowning- where you think to yourself, the phrase, “if one more thing happens, so help me, I’m going to lose it” enters my mind and it’s suffocating. 

I know each of us will experience moments like these in our lives, and my heart goes out to you. ❤️ We all have our own struggles- work stress, anxiety, depression, job loss, financial burdens, infertility, divorce, dating, being single, miscarriages, self confidence issues, not feeling good enough, etc. that we ALL experience. No one gets through this life unscathed. We ALL experience these hard things, but we don’t have to do it alone ❤️🙏🏻

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27).

YOU can do hard things! WE will get through this and it will ALL be ok! God is aware of you. Him and our Savior are close by and willing and looking for ways to help! Don’t give up! Just hold on, be strong, and remember that YOU are never alone! ❤️❤️

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
