The fear often stops me from living life fully and living how God calls me to live. I pray and pray for Him to tell me where to go and what to do, and then when He calls, I retreat and hide....

What things are first in your life right now? What things grab your heart & attention the most? Those are the things that our hearts have us pursue. Some are inherently good and some not so much. But where are you at today with your pursuit of God? Personally, from all the unknowns and scary news lately I’ve had a hard time sitting down to pray and spend time with God. Instead I’d much rather look on Pinterest to dream up the things I’ll do when the world is able to be open up again. But I realized just how much time I was spending on worldly things instead of going spend time with God. The best way to get back into that is to wake up a little earlier and make time for God and begin to pursue Him again. What are some tips you have for when you’ve gotten distracted??

The last few months have been chaotic, anxious, and scary for sure...But there has also been so much kindness, love, and community because of everything that’s going on. When I wrote this blog post we were in a time of never ending hustle and creatures of buying. 🌱Even with the self-care movement it was still all about buying things to make your self-care routine “perfect”. It felt like we lost a sense of what was important in life, which is love and community🌻 Now we are in a time of where we are about being there for people, learning not to put the safety of others first, and finding ways to spread more love, joy, and kindness. While there is so much sadness and heartbreak and scariness happening there is also so much love and community forming.....So what is something you can do this week that will give the world more love and joy? Comment below and let’s all give some love to the world🌿

With anxiety creeping up on our lives it can be easy to grasp onto anything but God. Especially when we are so bombarded with things of the world. During times such as now it is so important to keep our minds in the word every morning and keep ourselves as close to Him as possible. What is making you anxious today? Take a minute and pray to God about it, then trust that He has it all taken care of and live in peace 🌿

A beautiful reminder from 🌿

Wahoooooo a new post is on the blog today!! Ever been curious about clean non-toxic makeup? Well I am talking about and today!! Comment below on a favorite clean beauty brand 🤩

When faced with the choice of going with non-toxic make-up and toxic make-up which would you choose? The non-toxic one of course! There are so many well known beauty brands that are filled with harmful and unregulated ingredients, but because everyone uses those brands and truly they work so well it can be hard to switch off of them. I remember as a teenager I had no idea what clean make-up was or why it was important. [ 911 more words ]

In need of something to read?? Check out book!! What books have you all been reading lately??

This verse is one that has brought a lot of peace and stillness to my heart lately. This verse reminds me that one day we will get to be with God, whom loves us. In fact He loves us and wants us to love Him so much because that’s what He designed us for. You may think “He crested all the angels, animals, heavens and everything in between..why would He want me?” It’s true, God did create all of those creatures, but none were created to just dwell with Him. None of those creatures were made to be with Him. Our purpose is to love Him, seek Him, and be in this beautiful relationship with Him. He designed us for love and our purpose on earth is to learn what that love looks like and is.❤️

Sunday snoozes and snuggles 🥰 what are 3 things you are grateful for right now?? I ‘m grateful for:
1. This new found time to work on the things I love such as art, music, writing, and reading🌻
2. Friends and family to text and video chat with ❤️
3. The amount of hours I get to listen to and snuggle with Marley 🥰🐶

The best lil wallpaper reminder from ✨ this is a beautiful reminder that 1. Peace is a gift and 2. It is a glorious gift from God. So in a time where it is easy to be glued to the television, remember that God is with us and He has it all under control 🌻

Social media is one interesting beast.... I mean for one we see what other people want us to see....what they dream of, who they hope to actually be, and what they want out of life...Because at its core social media is about acceptance. We all want to be accepted, understood, and valued and social media has given that to us in one way or another. [ 358 more words ]

Today in church our pastor spoke about Jospeh... now Joseph is a character we all often forget about when it comes to the story of Jesus. We know he was a carpenter, he was Mary’s husband, and knocked on a whole lot of doors in Bethlehem and that’s pretty much it. We do not really acknowledge him besides that.. there are no songs about him, we don’t really know where to place him in the nativity scene, and he is just kind of there. [ 634 more words ]

Here is a little excerpt from my blog Live Happily Inked! I have not been sharing a whole lot this year as it has been kind of quiet, but I can tell that this quiet season is ending. Excited to see what all comes out on the pages over the next year!

"To be set aside is once if the worse feelings in human nature. To be set aside is like saying you are not good enough, smart enough, pretty enough, strong enough, or even just enough. It’s lonely, painful and nothing about being set aside is good. However, to be set apart is something different…

To be set apart means you are special, unique, and one-of-a-kind. It means that you are so incredibly valuable and irreplaceable. To know that you are set apart is a scary, wonderful, amazing, and sometimes lonely...."
