journey.

These past 4 years have been a whirlwind. I am completely in awe of what has happened. From no dreams to dreams coming true and dreams yet to come, I am deeply blessed by my God who has provided me life, love and an everlasting light that will never run out. 

Teaching 
In high school, I would have never thought I would be teaching at an elementary school. I had very little patience for people; nonetheless, children. Golly Gee, I had no idea what I was going to do. 
But today, I am privileged to be student teaching and making an impact on students who need be taught, cared for and loved. It has had its challenges and frustrations, but through it all I am so blessed to be in a position to minister and share the love of Jesus to people who really need it. 

Graduating 
I never thought I would see the light at the end of the tunnel. But, it's October and December is coming up! This is definitely a testimony to God's grace. With all the emotional distress and lack of goals and motivation I had starting college, I could have ended up in terrible situations but Jesus chose me. He literally picked me up from the ashes of hell and brought me into His light to give me a life of joy, restoration and a task to change the world. I was weak and oblivious to my surroundings and He anointed me with a task I could never do on my own because He wanted me to be completely 100% dependent on Him. 


From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised.
Psalm 113:3

Am I just dreaming?

When I was a little girl, I had dreams of living in a beautiful house, marry the man of my dreams and have a job I was passionate about.  But as I grew older, I started realizing the realities of life and how  (those things mentioned above) rarely comes true for people living in this world. So, I had no goals and a lack of motivation to do anything because I did not think "my dreams" would ever come true.  

Then Jesus saved me. 

And told me that His ways are not my ways and His thoughts are not my thoughts. 
He showed me that with Him all things are possible. 

But most importantly, the creator of this universe has placed His hand in my life to take care of me and work through me to make His name known. 

Because I know that, I choose that. 

God has expanded my dreams and has reassured me time and time again that He will fullfill every single one of those promises. 

I believe that for you as well. 

Stay strong sisters!
