Thoughts About this Blog

It's been a year and a half since my last post... kinda awkward, but oh well! #LifeHappens and #LifeGoesOn 

I'm back with a better vision this time, and more determination. My blog used to be for my photography. I have come to enjoy writing, and want this to be a platform to share my thoughts. 

So here's to new beginnings!!!

P U R P O S E

This blog is about life lessons, and it’s also a creative outlet. I'm in a season of learning. I'm about to be 20, and lately I've been all about solidifying my purpose, which has been a journey looking at what God created us for. My goal is to become more intentional with every moment of my life with my main purpose in mind. 

I'm beginning to build habits, some meaningful, some not as meaningful (like... flossing!) because what my life looks like now determines where my life is going. Today matters, and I don't want to set myself up for failure! The habits I'm building now will help me down the road. I want to be someone who finds joy in small things, has a hopeful perspective in challenging seasons, is gracious, quick to forgive and sees the best in people. Journaling while I read my Bible truly helps me process and gain perspective.

The best part of this all is the GRACE that's in growth. God has an abundance of love, grace and forgiveness for us through Christ. God has a standard of perfection which we cant even come CLOSE to reaching (we're all messed up, admit it!) but Jesus achieved that standard, so we don't have to. So now, God's mercies are new for me every morning. 

It's a testament of God's love that I'm not OK with being mediocre. I'm trying to grow, and become better. Isn't that just cool?? There's so much HOPE in moving forward. Welcome into my life adventure! I hope it can help you on your journey, too!
