4 Things to Remember on the Fourth of July

1. We are so blessed to live where we do. It seems like our country is getting worse by the day, and since we are drifting from God, I'd probably have to agree with that. But our country still has lots of good. I don't think there's any other place I'd want to live on earth. I have the freedom to write this blog. I went to church on[...]

The Power of Jesus

ANYWAY. I at least feel like I'm having a sugar rush. While I am definitely guilty of consuming way too much sugar, normally I don't get sugar[...]

I promise you can. I see Him working in my life all the time, and I know He is looking after me. And you can totally let go and let Him take care of your[...]

Living Your Faith: I Will Not Chill Out

One of my photos on Instagram was captioned something that inspired this post. I wrote the caption after dealing with the stresses of sticking up for my faith. I said... “Nothing” Kidding, kidding.

I've began to keep a journal, and I have always believed in the importance of journaling.

I Got Baptized Again!

On Sunday, I got baptized again at church! My mom did, too. We both were baptized as babies, but we wanted to do it again because we wanted to make it public that we were followers of Christ.

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Welcome to My Blog

I am passionate about sharing and living for Jesus, authentic storytelling, moving design, and all things girly, just because. Here on my blog, I love writing about all the things God is teaching me in my everyday life to inspire, encourage, and entertain for His glory, above all, and to share an honest, raw view of life, faith, and His light, love, and hope that saves. As an aspiring author, I record my journey of trusting God with all my dreams. I pray this space can help you fall in love with God more deeply, make you laugh, and encourage, challenge, and reassure you as you seek to live a bold, abundant life for Him.
