The Lost Art of Waiting for Marriage

I will say right off the bat that I don't know if "art" was the right word for this, but it's no secret that "trends" and "times are changing"...but not for the better, not only in my opinion but in God's, Who knows us and what we need more than any "cultural shift," and also what research is beginning to show and even common sense/consc[...]

I've written about them several times on my blog, like here or here and even here, and I've yet to fulfill my goal of going to an NHL game, but I've alread[...]

What I’ve Learned About Fulfilling Your Dreams

The tagline for my blog for awhile used to always have some form of "fulfilling dreams" in it. That's probably still sprinkled throughout some of my copy around here, who knows. I'm okay with that because I do love addressing this topic and encouraging people to follow their dreams in line with following God. It's a good thing to have dr[...]

A Unique, Hopeful Plan Just for You

In my last two blog posts, I get a little more personal than normal because I really wanted you to feel that they were targeted specifically at you. I mean, all of my blog posts are written for YOU to bring glory to God and encourage you in your relationship with Him. But I really wanted you to grasp those like maybe you wouldn't ano[...]

Why You Can Totally Let Go and Let God

I have mentioned countless times on this blog that you should trust God all the way. But you might be asking WHY? How do I know I can trust God and that He is really looking out for me?

Now I'm going to tell you what we can learn from a hockey game referring to the game I attended just a month ago for my birthday. With all the pictures, of course. So he[...]

We all have big dreams. We all have talents. And we want ways to fulfill those dreams. But sometimes, it's not always easy getting out there with them.

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.
