Winter Things to Encourage Your Heart

Last fall when my high school was doing hybrid classes, on one of the "online" days for PE I had to plan my own workout for half an hour, so usually I would walk around my property with Willy for that time. While doing that, I always marveled at the different sights and views of my property, especially as the autumn season really settled[...]

Midnight Thoughts on the Meaning of Life

This is quite a dramatic title, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In fact, I’m not going to lie, when I thought about what to title this post, it just came to my mind, and I swooned. It may seem a little excessive for what I want to share with you, but it’s actually perfect because I want to post some thoughts I typed[...]

Weeks of Reflection

My family took their annual trip up to Canada where they would be fishing for a whole week, and this city-loving-girly-girl took a pass on that last year and did so again this year. I did spend the two years before that going on the trip with them, and while I highly enjoyed the experience of seeing another country and the outdoors in tha[...]

2018 | Reflection

I know every person in the world, just about, has done the cliche new year posts from blogging to social media, and one thing I have tried to be conscious about when doing mine is to always keep it centered on Jesus. While it is just another year and there is no need to be worked up about it beyond what is healthy, I do think reflection i[...]

Writing is Powerful

I really love what I do - both writing books and my blog. I truly believe that writing is powerful. All talents that God gives us are powerful in their own way, but sometimes I think books are taken for granted, and nobody really appreciates reading or writing because of the extra work gone into it. Well, I’m going to tell you the rea[...]

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.
