In my last post, I mentioned some situations I felt had led me to begin doubting God. I think that I would have started doubting Him regardless of what happened because a big part of it was becoming a newer, more mature version of myself and not just the naive, innocent child who never dared question God because she believed it was wrong[...]
I've been spending a weekend with my grandparents for Christmas, and it's been enjoyable as always! I always cherish the times I have with them. How has all of your Christmas breaks been going? Mine has been good; I've read so much, haha. Today Grams, Mom and I went out to eat at Godfather's, our tradition. We do this a lot, and Mom[...]
I've always had trouble with blogging. Or I should say, continuing to stay motivated with it. I love to write, and I definitely love to blog, though I would rather write fictional stories any day. But I just love the beauty of writing and the impact that words can have on somebody's life. Fiction or nonfiction. I like to read both, t[...]
In our day in age, there are a lot of people who don't believe in God. It is our job as Christians to tell others about Jesus and share his hope for us. It's the heart of what I do, and I've written LOTS about it. here is why I do this and am so passionate about Jesus: This is Why why I believe it's our purpose to be a light: Why Being[...]
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.

You can stand for a lot of things, but there’s always that one big theme above all. Mine is being a light, and there is one huge reason on why I chose that f[...]
Ever since beginning middle school, I’ve learned something new each year. Not the type of learning where you figure out how to add negative numbers and what not, but more like the type of learning where I figure out WHO I AM. Cheesy, right? But it’s true. In April, towards the end of sixth grade, I wrote a blog post called “An[...]
I have a lot of pet peeves, but this one in particular. I really hate it when people claim they have God, but their lifestyle could not prove that to be more wrong. It really upsets me because I feel like that isn't fair to the people who truly want to live for Him. This generation has forgotten what it means to show faith. You can s[...]
It's not easy for me at school. Fortunately, I'm doing fine with the education part, but it's the social part that's hard. It is not easy being a Christian in today's world - and actually living it out. So many kids in my school have 'Follower of Christ' or 'God Comes First' in their Instagram bios, but at school? You'd never know t[...]
