Hi friends!
I've never considered myself to be much of a reader or a writer, so to me it seems fairly ironic that I'm writing a blog. This is not something that I'm starting on my own initiative, rather I am doing this because I feel led of the Lord to do so. This blog is written specifically to encourage, speak truth, and tell of the greatness of the Lord God! It is meant for women (of all ages), but really, it's open for everyone to read! In each post, I (or if led, another individual) will share as the Lord is directing. The Father so passionately desires His children to know just how much He loves them, that He has the best in store, and that His plans are perfect (in spite of what things may look or feel like to you in your current position).
"Life is not a bed of roses," as a dear friend of mine says. As a matter of fact, let's be completely honest here and even say that living life is extremely difficult and comes with it share of pain and trials. In transparency, I will even share with you that right now I am walking through a hard spot in my life, and have been for a couple of years. I, nor my life, is not anywhere near perfect, and I am still learning and growing. However, I am waiting on the Lord--waiting for His best for my life. There are so many times where I have gotten to a point of despair and desired nothing more but the opportunity to give up and walk away because it just didn't feel like it (that is, waiting on the Lord) was worth it. But, friend, it is. It truly is.
I'm saying this in faith. I'm saying this because I have seen the Lord work. I'm saying this because I have seen the Father keep His promises to His children. God is always good, always faithful, and always perfect in everything He does. This means that He can be trusted COMPLETELY.
As I walk through my journey and share with you, I hope to be able to help and encourage you in your own walk with our precious Father. It is such an honor for me to have the opportunity to come together with you and proclaim the greatness of our Lord Jesus Christ! Know that His best is worth waiting for, friend. Please don't lower your standards because it's getting hard, or has gotten hard to withhold them. Hold on to those standards with everything you have. Cling to the Father with as if your life depends upon it, because it does.
I will be praying that Abba Father keeps, protects, and sweetly encourages you as you delve deeper into your walk with Him, while being nourished by His living Word. Remember and rejoice in the fact that He who promised IS faithful! Praise the Lord!

I felt it beneficial to leave some sustenance!
