I hope you've been enjoying some of this unique content, and during this seri[...]

My Favorite Christmas Songs

Well, it's time to start thinking about Christmas already! What a joy it is to get in the Christmas mood and spirit and reflect on the sort of "beginning" to the story of our salvation (even though God had it planned all along...). As the days go by and I get older (how pathetic do I sound right now), I keep realizing how important it is[...]

Songs for the Sad Heart That Inspire and Encourage

I actually enjoy sad music. That's not all I listen to; I like a healthy variety because otherwise I could just sit in a corner listening to sad music and depress myself into oblivion, but I find music as a whole so therapeutic, and some honest, reassuring, relatable, yet hopeful lyrics are necessary for me. They help you feel less alone[...]

My Favorite Scripture Lullabies

I am so excited for this post!!! It's been in my idea queue for awhile and I've been waiting to finally get to it. I know I've mentioned the group, known simply as Scripture Lullabies, on my blog before. They make exactly what they're named for—beautiful, melodic songs with lyrics that are Bible verses. They say they can be played for[...]

Relatable Songs I Love

I'm always in awe of the power of music, and I'm always thanking God for Spotify that allows me to save and discover so many wonderful songs. I know I've said it before, but listening to music has helped me in so many ways as it does for many people, and that's the beauty of it, how everyone can have their own taste, style, and preferenc[...]

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.
