A Recent Prayer

I've had a hard time finding the right words to start this blog off. Granted, I've never been one to accurately articulate myself, however, I will still attempt to.


I have become even more aware of the little that I know of God and the immense amount of love He constantly pours into my life. Throughout the last few days, I have experienced the truth of His love to have placed peace, patience, and joy in my heart. And He has only just begun.


I'm excited to continue to walk in my relationship with God and discover more of who He is. Jesus Christ is radically changing my heart according to His will. With every conviciton and impression that the Holy Spirit stirs within me, I am gaining more and more clarity in the woman God intended for me to be.


Abide. God continues to softened my heart to long for His presence with every day that He chooses to give me. I am blessed to have a personal relationship with Him. Outside of Him, I am nothing. Abiding in Him places me in His presence. And in His presence is where I shall be. Only in His presence can I fully embrace who He intends for me to be.


I pray that everyone would abide in Him. His plans and desires for every single person exceeds all we could ever plan for ourselves. I am praying for you and I. I am praying that our hearts may be stirred to receive His love and that in response to His love, we would put off our old selves, and live in such a way that is worthy of the calling to which we have been called, worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, fully pleasing to Him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. (Eph. 4:1,22; Phl 1:27; Col 1:10 ESV)


Embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ. Abide in Him.
