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? I promise you can. I see Him working in my life all the time, and I know He is looking after me. And you can totally let go and let Him take care of your[...]
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. Squarespace has that as the default text when I enter a quote block haha; I thought it was appropriate. What I really said was... “[...]
Did you survive April Fool's Day? Leave a comment below if you got pranked or pranked somebody... Haha I hate this holiday; I don't know how to prank nor do I like being pranked. Anyway... Let's get into the goals for this month. I have BIG NEWS (and I promise it's real)... RUN WITHOUT PUKING UP BLOOD OR A LUNG: To be honest, I can't[...]
I like taking real life events and taking away lessons from them that we can use in our lives. Clearly. I already did a post over how sprint car racing is like life. 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[...]
I went to my first Christian retreat over the weekend. It was an absolute amazing experience, and I can't wait to go on another one. I've began to keep a journal, and I have always believed in the importance of journaling. I wrote down everything that happened and what I learned because I want to remember it, and I especially want to reme[...]
I'm... reading: "Second Chance Summer" by Morgan Matson. I'm not very far, so I don't really have an opinion on it yet. I preordered Karen Kingsbury's Brush of Wings - I love that series! I'm also entered to win this ENTIRE series of hers - the Baxter Family! I loved those books soooooo much. I read them in 5th grade and need to rea[...]
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[...]
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[...]
On Sunday, I got baptized again at church! My mom did, too. We both were baptized as babies, but we wanted to do it again because we wanted to make it public that we were followers of Christ. It's not required, and it certainly doesn't determine if you're going to heaven or not, but we still wanted to do it in front of our church. I[...]
