Last night after I prayed, I put my head on my pillow and God showed me this message. I woke up and immediately wrote it down. Many people have said that my walking testimony is what people are observing. In the beginning it made me feel pressure and the need to be a perfect Christian. But in prayer, I'm learning that I am a growing Christian and anything that I do is not for my own benefit, but for God. It's not about how we look to others, but how others are able to see God through us. I'm a new Christian. I'm learning each day to shed my old self and allow the Holy Spirit to work through me. I'm learning to fight battles through prayer and not the flesh. My walking testimony is not about me. It's about my God. Amen and God Bless You. ❣

Today I woke up. My son and soon to be husband was next to me. I'm here. I'm alive. 9 years ago I was diagnosed with Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma alk+. I was only 23 years old and my whole world changed. God saved me physically, but this year at 32, he saved me spiritually. Cancer has the ability to rocked my foundation and made me realize everything the world wanted me to believe was wrong. There are no deadlines, being too busy, worldly rules. Live your life and make sure it's a happy one. God Bless, 🤗💕

Don't forget to check out what's new on the blog. Daily Newness - Living Life Renewed Each Day. I don't know about you, but it's a true battle of flesh for me. As a new Christian, when issues come my way I want to respond of my flesh. I become angry and want to go at the person who has angered me. I know that I was given a new heart, but it's hard to overcome the flesh. I'm grateful that we are given an opportunity to begin again. Read more on the blog and comment below is you have issues of the flesh you pray to remove. 👇

📷 cc: faithwire We hear of celebrities who are going on fad diets, advertise in little outfits about the newest trend, and hear the latest gossip. This is a story worth sharing - Mario Lopez getting baptized in the same river as Jesus. It's inspirational and something that truly touched my heart. He has made a decision to be adopted into the family of God. He is our brother in Christ, 💕 May his testimony touch other lives and bring more people into a relationship with God. May we also pray for him because he will face battles as we all do when we walk with the Lord.

Ever feel like yesterday was a disaster and wish you can start over? Check out the new blog, 💕 Link in bio!

What is the life of a writer? You write until your mind wants to explode. You write until the real world seems foreign because you're engulfed in what you're creating. You write until dishes pile up and clothes need to be washed because your free time is your write time. You write until you doubt every page and wonder if you really have what it takes. You write until it hurts. What is the life of a Christian author? The ability to feel all of that - but knowing that with God on your side nothing can stop you. #newbookcomingsoon
