By Faith


These 2 words have been a reoccurring theme In my life lately. Remembering how important it is to live by FAITH & not by sight is definitely more easier said than done. However, when urs done right amazing things happen! 


I was recently reading Not Part of the Plan by @krstnclark + & @bethany.beal. One of the chapters focuses on the importance & results that the Bible gives to us about living by faith. 


Hebrews 11 is such an encouraging chapter. It never says by feeling Noah built the ark or by feeling Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born. It focus on the fact that those people didn’t always know what the end result would be. However they did take steps of faith.

We might have assumptions or fears surrounding the other person’s motives. However, there’s no better way to gain clarity about them than asking vs assuming.  Trust me. It’s wayyyy easier said tha...

Growth

  Last year around this time, I wrote about how 2021 had been a year of learning. I said, “2021 has been a year of learning for me. Learning to trust, learning to let go, learning how to grieve with Christ’s hope, and learning how to have grace on myself while walking through these journeys.“ This time last year I had no clue what 2022 would be like for me. If I had to assign a word to its experiences as I did last year, I’d choose growth. Not only because I’ve grown through what I’d coined as the year of learning. But I’ve also become more aware of the growth in others as well as myself.  Growth in character, in the understanding of The Word, in willingness to learn new things, and more.  Training myself to recognize growth in others takes practice for me. It’s one of those things that usually requires me to sit back and observe without saying anything at all, instead of my default. AKA get up and go extroverted self. However, it’s one of the most rewarding things ...
