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.

    • Freedom

      I hear the Lord say: “Freedom”, you cry. You cry out for freedom from the burdens and trials of life. Freedom is here. It is yours. But you must actively take it. It will not be real to you until you release the burdens you carry. No freedom can be obtained if you stubbornly cling…

    • Fullness of Joy

      I hear the Lord say: “I bring you fullness of joy”: it’s a phrase you have heard before, but do you believe it? Does it resonate in your soul? Do you know what “the joy of the Lord” truly is? Human emotions are wide ranging. I made you that way. But sometimes feelings can be…

    • Perseverance

    • Love

      I hear the Lord say: On Valentine’s Day, people share tokens of their love with flowers, candy and gifts. Romance is celebrated with candlelight dinners and music. But I have a love for you that transcends human love. Although you love your family and friends deeply, the love I have for you is agape love.…
