But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10
About
Welcome, and thank you for visiting!
Over the years I have come to realize that my favorite outlet of personal expression and self-reflection has always been through writing. Back in Junior High–think teenage girl, hormones, crushes, battling self-esteem, when the flurry of emotions and thoughts inside were filled to maximum capacity–that is when I realized that by simply grabbing a pencil and paper and writing down the words that came in and through me that I was able release some of those emotions swirling within. I was able to give order to them. My faith in God has never wavered, and His presence has always echoed through my written voice regardless of the subject or circumstance.
Poems, prayers, prose, verses; I find them scattered randomly throughout my life. They appear on scraps of paper in dresser drawers, hiding amongst unused notebook pages, in untitled documents of the Cloud.
Being a very private person by nature, I almost never shared anything that I had written with anyone else. And this whole (attempting to) create a website where I share the things that I write–thoughts, verses, prayers–it definitely pushes the limit of my comfort zone. However, I know that the Lord has called me to do this, and I will follow His leading unto the end.
The cries of my heart to the Lord, His praises and prayers; I aways feel as though they are personal. He promptly reminds me that everything was His, including my heart, my worship, every beautiful sunrise and the family into which He has blessed me.
How could I ever withhold such a simple request? I will share His Love and Grace. He saves the hearts of those He loves, and my heart will forever sing His praise. I continually pray for a servant’s heart above all, serving my Father God, for He holds this heart, now and forever more.
“for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill His good purpose.
Phillipians 2:13 NIV
