Today I stand in awe of the God who gives and gives and gives.  Joy, Love, Peace, Motivation, Desire, Passion, Endurance, Hope, Faith, Strength, etc.  All given to me by His love and Mercy.  I am reminded first why I am able to see these blessings.  Because He chose me, because he chose to love [...]

It’s already the end of the year and the beginning of my second summer after college. I can’t believe it. Well to sum things up fast I realized there are a ton of things/people that God has blessed me with this year that I can’t help but recognize this and thank Him in return for [...]

Times are tough. That’s all I can say for what’s going on in life right now. But as much as the world keeps beating down on my life, God is strengthening my heart ten times more than I can truly imagine. I cry NOT because I am hurt by the troubles but because God is [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a blog. I feel like life has been like a book. In fact I’ve already finished four journals since my first year at UCD and I JUST started a new one. ^_^ There has been so many ups and some random downs and right now I guess since [...]

Somehow I’ve been feeling a loss of desire.  This I find is the worse thing that could happen.  I tend to feel less willing to do things, less willing to see people, less willing to do much of anything.  The only person who can and has helped to spark any bit of interest in me [...]

Somehow waking up this morning, the Lord excites me with the day ahead.  After much thought in the morning, I find disapproval with myself and where I am with the Lord.  I wish I was closer to him than I am now.  I cannot come to him as a spiritual warrior, but I come to [...]

This particular subject is something that I feel that God uses to bless you and your OWN day in return. As for my personal story, Sirena (my younger sister for those who don’t know) and I didn’t really feel like we really wanted to continue helping out our High School with their Christmas concert. For [...]
