Seasons

 As humans it's only natural for us to want others in our lives. We crave relationships and desire to be close to those around us. We long for romance and we're in constant search of friendship. In fact if we really look at how much of our lives we spend searching it's kind of insane. On the flip side we enter seasons of confusion, seasons of self growth and in the end seasons of purpose. It's interesting that sometimes in these seasons the main focus shouldn't be searching so much the world for those people and those relationships, rather searching our own hearts. Searching ourselves to learn how to wake up alone in the morning, how to be content when no one else is around. How to be alone and realize that being alone is truly okay. It can be daunting especially for those who are used to constant companionship. Figuring out who you are alone can seem to be one of the steepest mountains you have yet to face. I want to encourage you that every season in our lives does have a purpose and as hard as it is to see it now, each season will grow you as a person. There is something in your life God is working to accomplish now even if you feel as though your more lost then you've ever been before. While you may be lost, God is not. Search yourself, take time to learn who you are in this season and who you want to become in the future, knowing yourself is as much of a relationship as any other and it takes work and time. So take the time and work on yourself and allow God to work in you.

The fire

  A thought came to me today as I stumbled upon some inspirational posts. Why are we often so eager to escape our troubling circumstances. We get trapped in the fire and get so focused on getting out that perhaps we miss the most important question of all, what refining needs to be completed in the fire? Just as a welder uses the fire to shape and refine metal, so God uses our circumstances, "fires" to shape and refine us. If he simply swooped in and saved the day, we would lack the knowledge he hopes us to gain, we wouldn't grow in character or wisdom. In the fire we think he abandom us, left us to our own devices, but in reality he is more present in the fire even then in the calm. It's when we feel abandoned that he's calling to us the loudest, beckoning us to just open our ears to listen to his voice. Take the fires in stride, don't immediately reach for the extinguisher. Allow the flames to surround you with the confident knowledge that the one whom the...

Be-You-Tiful

Hey Ladies<3 This post is specifically for all my ladies out there, we often hear the word "beautiful" in many ways. Its often used when we see someone we find prettier than ourselves in our eyes. We feel like we don't measure up because we aren't the "perfect or ideal" weight, or maybe we aren't using the super expensive makeup that someone else is. People in general are self conscious but we as woman get the brunt of it. We constantly try to be the "ideal" for someone else, its like a constant battle to be someones idea of beautiful. So much so that we forget to focus on our own idea of beautiful. We wear uncomfortable cloths, go on massive diets, and try to learn the impossible eye liner tutorials so that we feel like we measure up. We get so caught up in the worlds idea of beauty that we loose track of what we think is beautiful and what is spiritually beautiful. Some think that beauty comes from how much you spend on your appearance ,b...

Identity

I must first apologize to all of you , my readers for the long gap in between blogs. This summer has been insane and while I am not one to share my own personal life, I believe there were lessons learned and wisdom gained this past summer in which I would like to share with all of you. So all my teens and even parents out there, this ones for you.     Growing up is hard, especially in today's world with so many constant influences trying to tell us who we are and who we should become. It's a struggle among these influences to find out who you are now and who God wants you to be in the future, it's a constant question of if you made the right choice, if your going the right direction, and sometimes it feels as if there is purely no direction in any way you look. It can feel as if God is no longer leading you, and if your like me, that feeling is scary. I want to give you wisdom tonight that God is with you, I know for a fact because he stayed with me even when I couldn'...
