Post-Nicaragua.

LIBERATION. There was so much freedom this past week in Nicaragua. The sick were liberated from their illness. People were liberated from addictions, from strongholds. People who were possessed were liberated from their demons. Nicaragua has been liberated from its reputation. Thousands of people across the nation found freedom someway. Not only were Nicaraguans changed […]

Pre-Nicaragua.

I leave on a missions trip this Friday. I get to spend an entire week in Nicaragua. I have the opportunity to share the love of God in schools, share my testimony at a women’s conference, and simply witness God move mightily over an entire nation.. and I know He’s going to do more than […]

Grace Comes Like A Wave.

For the past week, I have been feeling way unlike myself. Every morning, I would wake up and be filled with feelings that would knock me out of my groove. It’s kind of hard to explain, but I would just not want to do anything. I had zero motivation. It’s not like I was starting […]

Adios, Mis Dolores.

The thoughts that have consumed my mind these last couple of weeks have been annoying, scary, and suffocating. What thoughts would those be? In all honesty (with no care if the person reads this), they are memories of a relationship I got out of almost 6 months ago now. These memories would be better classified […]

Marching to the Beat of a Different Drum.

“No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us” (Romans 8:37 NLT). March is coming to an end and I can’t help but look back on all the wonderful things God has done this month. If this March had a theme verse, it would be Romans 8:37. Granted, March has […]

To My Future Husband: An Open Letter.

My dearest husband, Today is Valentine’s Day. Quite frankly I had a roller coaster of a morning today. I dropped off my little sister at school today and noticed so many kids with balloons, candy, flowers, bears, etc. I had to go to the grocery store this morning and was bombarded by even more of […]

Twenty.

I turned twenty years old February 7th. I’m no longer a teenager. I’m no longer a lot of things… When I look back on all that I’ve been through in my life, I can really see the way God has flipped my life around. I dedicated my life to the Lord ten years ago, when […]

Back In Action.

For the month of January, I went completely under the radar. I logged off of my Instagram, Snapchat, and blog. All this was done for a reason. If you recall from my last post, I talked about how before Jesus began his ministry, He was led into the wilderness for forty days and forty nights […]

Transitional Tests.

I don’t know about you, but I do not believe in coincidences. Before Jesus began his ministry, He was led into the wilderness for forty days and forty nights. I am on break for forty days, and this is no coincidence. I am transitioning into a season that is going to stretch me in every […]

Eternally Grateful.

Looking back on last year, I have so much to be thankful for. This time last year was very dark and ugly for me. I remember last November 23rd, I was unsure if I would even be alive the next day. I was insecure, depressed, lonely, and suicidal. I remember writing and describing last autumn: “September […]
