He's so good to me.

Well it has been a long time since I’ve written on this blog and I apologize for that! Man, what a blessing it is to be able to write down what the Lord is doing in my life and putting on my heart. I love you guys!

I’ve been home for almost 2 months now and God has been showering me with blessings. Everything I’ve prayed for, He has given to me. All the visions I had while I was in Kona and New York are being lived out. I’ve gotten the opportunity to speak in Fusion (the high school ministry), My Father’s House (A wonderful church in Pasadena), on stage with my Dad in main service, and to several young girls who have a similar story as mine and have a passion to know God better. God has given me a spirit of boldness, I couldn’t do any of this without Him. I used to be way, way too self-conscious.

Being back home makes me feel like a million bucks. Everybody here is so supportive of what I’m doing and who God has made me to be these past 8 months. I’ve never felt so much love from so many people in my entire life!
I prayed that the Lord would show me love and favor when I came home and boy has He proved Himself faithful!
I’ve come in to a season of celebration. Celebration of the life God has redeemed me of. Heavy drinking, an eating disorder, insecurity, and anger has all been given up to Him-the ultimate healer. I would never be open about my struggles unless I truly believed that God is here for me and relentlessly loves me like His child. I am His daughter. Forever and ever!!

Romans 8:11
The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.
- OH MY GOODNESS! Is it just me or is this too good to be true? No wonder God was able to change my whole life so quickly, the same spirit who raised my Lord, Jesus Christ from the dead, lives inside of ME!

Romans 8:26
And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will.
- do I need to say anything? How beautiful is that picture? The Holy Spirit prays for us with groans that can’t be expressed in words. We are never alone.  


Psalm 34:19
The righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time.
-I will hold tight to this promise. Each time. He’s my rescuer :)
