Hello! Welcome to my blog! I have recorded past journal entries from devotional journaling as well as nature and travel photos. It is my aim to pass on the encouragement of the Lord to other sisters in Christ.

    Trials

    I hear the Lord say:

    Today’s trials are not forever. Each day has moments of joy and pain. Bring to mind the goodness that I am. I embody all that is good; all that is good for you and your well-being. Life on earth has mountains and valleys. The journey is full of unknown adventures and obstacles, with some required effort and discipline. It is not a matter of self-effort but one of abiding with Me. Traveling up a mountain is arduous but the view from the top is priceless! I am your Helper, Comforter and Shield-Bearer. I will accompany you through mountain passes and refresh you in green, lush valleys. We will stop to relax near bubbling streams. Rest is important. Little steps are steps forward. Lean on Me.

    And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 1 Peter 5:10 NIV
