The Gift of a Passion Project
When was the last time you created something you were truly passionate about? Not everyone is passionate about their career, and you know what? It’s ok! People are shamed for not loving their career or their job. It’s amazing to do what you love, love what you do, and get paid for it! The truth […]

The Gift of Being His
You are God’s masterpiece. (Ephesians 2:10) Not the beautiful sunset, the stars nor the moon, not the blooming flower nor the bird with its tune— Not the four leaf clover, the grass nor the trees, not the queen of the ants, not the bumble bees— Not the sandy beach, nor the sea, nor the sky, […]

The Gift of Color
My all time favorite question to ask someone has always been “What’s your favorite color?” Someone’s favorite color says so much about them. I have the hardest time choosing just one, and I used to really dislike that about myself. I’ve learned to love and accept that little quirk. Maybe, it’s the artist in me. […]

The Gift of God’s Plan: Seeing Beyond the White Picket Fence
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11) The thing about plans—some of us have one; some of us don’t. God has a plan for everyone, but it’s up to us whether […]

The Gift of Dreams
“Let her sleep, for when she wakes, she will move mountains.” unknown It all started with my dreams. I don’t mean my faith, as I was raised to be a Christian, but my journey towards my relationship with Christ.
