You may not have a valentine, Or perhaps you do
But in any case I'd like to, Share a thing… or twenty-two
First, You should know, You are sweeter than pie
Second, God calls you, The apple of His eye
4 Prayers That Will Change The Way You Live
As Christians, we are on a journey, learning how to die to ourselves, our flesh, the things that separate us from God. It’s not always talked about, but there it is. We are learning how to die. In other words, we aren’t here to please ourselves, we aren’t here to follow people, we aren’t here to impress others with our spiritual gifts, we are only here to follow Jesus. But Lord knows, we need Jesus to follow Jesus and prayer helps.
Let Us Run
Can we run? O Church, will we run?
Run together, Hand-in-hand, Away from the hate, To a heaven land
A place where we can discover, Where dreams speak aloud, A place to dance, jump, wonder, Where life was first given sound
He Is Still With Me (A Bit More Of My Testimony)
Imagine a girl, no more than 13 years old, a scrawny thing, with wild, wavy hair, sitting in her room with her knees drawn to her chest. She is crying. Again. She is thinking… I just want to get it right. Why can’t I just get it right? I’m so tired of messing up,…
Happy 3rd Anniversary :)
God is good, Princesses. We made it to three years at TAYP. :) I don’t have much to say (shocking!) except, thank you for reading and being part of this journey. You are truly a miracle. I love that you are alive. Keep seeking Jesus with all of your beautiful life. Till the next chapter,…
My Contract To Christ
I wrote the letter below a few days ago because God has been speaking to me recently of surrender. I love to think my life is really my life, but as He has been reminding me, I am not my own. This contract is my way of re-surrendering my life to Christ. I wanted to…
Fear or Faith
Since I was in middle school, I’ve had a secret desire to start my own bible study. I loved the idea of girls coming together, reading together, and sharing their lives with one another. Bible studies to me were like the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants… but better. Still, even though I’ve wanted to do…
“Thy Will” by Hillary Scott & The Scott Family
I was driving yesterday, listening to the radio and this song comes on… a song so raw and beautiful I just had to share with you girls. It’s called, “Thy Will” and it is written by Hillary Scott of Lady Antebellum. She went through a tragedy in her life and through that, this song emerged.…
Being You vs Bringing You
Lately I’ve noticed I tend to struggle with being independent and trying to do it all on my own. I’m not good with asking for help, reaching out, letting other’s strengths help me in my weakness. It’s bad, I know. The body of Christ is all about inter-dependence, not independence. Meaning, we are individually ourselves,…
Not With Eloquence But With Christ
Though I love to write to you, do you know that sometimes I don’t feel qualified to write at all? It’s true. It’s a lie I battle every time my fingers hit the keyboard. “You don’t know what you are talking about, “ comes the evil hiss, “You’ve never been to a seminary school, you’ve…
Faith Is Taking A Step Even When You Are Afraid
I don’t know about you but sometimes, I feel like I have to conquer my fears before I can move forward into what God is calling me to do. Then I look back at so many people in the bible who were called “Men and Women of Faith” and they took risks, they did great…
Thou Shalt Rest
I’ve not been the best at writing to you girls. I’m sorry about that. We’ve been in the process of moving and traveling and it’s been a crazy couple of months. It’s all good things, just very tiring. Lately, because of all the shifts in our life, I’ve had to revisit my values. I’ve been…
