What God Showed Me Through a Worldly Movie

I think I’ve mentioned “The Fault in Our Stars” before. I can’t get over it. When I watched it in the spring, it really got to me and hasn’t left. It wasn’t my all time favorite movie, and I didn’t totally agree with everything that happened in it, but there was one thing God showed me after I watched it. There was three[...]

This Year’s Life Goals and Beginning Monthly Goals

Happy 2016, everyone! I’ve never been a big fan of resolutions, because they’re such a corny thing sometimes that people never actually do. I’ve always been kind of hesitant about goals, too, but I don’t think it’s a bad thing to set goals. We should always be working hard to become better people in Christ, and I don’t th[...]

Snacks from a rest area I got... Well, if you're going to take a picture of them, at least be creative with it. 2. WHAT IS THIS?![...]

Those Certain Songs

Music affects us in a lot of ways. Have you ever associated a certain place or memory with a certain song? I have, and it's funny how if I hear one of them it reminds me of it so much. I use a lot of songs to associate different moods with my stories, and here are some of them. I think of Des Moines, hospitals, and other deep stuff w[...]

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.
