So Blessed!
I haven't been on this blog in a long time, but I have some great news! I found out yesterday that I will be joining the praise and worship team at church! I feel so blessed to be part of this opportunity. I just ask that God uses me in this position that I have been given. I've always enjoyed music and know that God gave me the special gifts of expressing myself through music! I'm so excited to see what God has in store!

New Beginnings
I have now started going to a new church. I was apprehensive of stepping out of my comfort zone once again, but so far it has been a wonderful experience!
I also have started going to a small group on Sunday nights. I have met many wonderful people through this experience. I'm ready to see what God has in store for me!
We are reading a book called "Christian" by Andy Stanley. It is looking into the word "Christian" and the word used more in the Bible: "disciple."
Which one would we want to be called? That is the big question.
Jesus told us to love one another. As a disciple we are to say yes to everything God tells us to do. That is a tall order!
I'm diving into God's Word and learning as I go. I will try to keep everyone updated!
Have a wonderful week! :)

Blessings
I love Laura's Stories' song Blessings. I remember a few months ago crying throughout the whole song. I was wondering how I was even going to handle all of the changes life had brought me.
Now as I look around me, I am in awe of what God can do in just a few short months. I suppose I should remember that God can do anything in an instant.
I am so blessed! I had to leave my home at Hartville, but now I am close to family. I had to leave a great job, but God provided another great one in it's place. I was in pain from losing a relationship, and now healing and moving on. God is providing new relationships. :)
I know I'm not perfect and that I need to continue to strive to be more Christlike. All of the blessings He gives makes me want to even more! I know life won't always be a bed of roses, but with God I can make it through even the tough times. He uses the tough times to strengthen me and brings me into something so much greater!
I think of this verse and it reminds me of all of the blessings I have in my life. It pushes me to love the Lord even more!
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." -Romans 8:28
My blessings came through raindrops and tears, but looking back...it just might have been worth it! Take care everyone. Shine for Jesus!

Not About the Shoes. It's about the Souls.
This weekend I had the honor of worshiping God with almost four hundred women at Hartville FWB. I am so blessed by God to have such wonderful women in my life. I have decided to start this blog to help myself become accountable in God's Word and to help encourage those that read it.
We learned at the conference that throughout our lives we will step in many things. We need to keep our eyes on Jesus and walk in his footsteps. Once he forgives us, our sins are forgiven and we need to keep walking and singing in life. It's time to forget things of the past and move on! I know I needed this message. I have been struggling with all of the changes in my life in the last few months. I know I must move on and realize the blessings God has given me through these changes. I hope this blog will help encourage you even if I tend to ramble. Beautiful are the feet that bring good news. :)
In Christ,
