Spiritual Gifts

Hey You Guys,

I have thought for a while about what this initial post should be. Then I talked with a friend and decided on spiritual gifts. What are spiritual gifts? What do I mean BY spiritual gifts?

Allow me to explain what I mean; each day that we have been given, that we are so blessed to receive, is a gift from God that allows us to walk in the ways of Christ and be more like Him. I have a natural longing to pour into others that can most closely be related to the biblical and spiritual gifts of teaching (1 Timothy 3:15), wisdom (James 3:17), and service.

If you looked around the page a bit, you would see the words, educate, uplift and inspire. It is my prayer that these things constantly take place through my everyday life! Through what is known as a testimony, I get to share my words and express on this blog my spiritual gifts!!

We are going through a time right now when encouragement is needed the most. I encourage you all to dig into the word, surround yourself with things that will strengthen and calm your spirit.

Pray, read a book, watch a feel good movie, paint, color, sing, and dance, if you have oils- diffuse them- put them on. Be present. Do a FaceTime or Google Duo. Have a glass of water and/or wine!

For all of those who know me, for new friends to come, and those who I’ve yet to meet, you will soon know and see why I love to be around people.

However, practicing social distancing doesn’t allow for that (although I did get to see some people when I ventured out yesterday.) and (technology gives us other options, such as blogs!) It is an honor to serve a God who is so loving. I’m watching, praying, and enjoying the process of waiting while God helps me put these spiritual gifts into motion in different ways.

Don’t be afraid to step outside of a comfort zone, and watch God work. Is it scary? Sure. That’s why we have grace, and faith. Faith over Fear you guys. If you’re reading this, thank you! Believe it or not- your support keeps me going! Feel free to reach out to me with things you’d like to see on the blog! I look forward to what this journey reveals to us all! I appreciate each and everyone of you. I promise to achieve a new blog post each week! You are so loved. We are all so deeply loved!
Until next time.

    Welcome to the blog section of the site! I chose to blog because writing brings things to life!

    When you are setting a goal, or dreaming something up- when you get it in print - it becomes real! On the other hand, if you are going through something, and needing to let it go - writing allows one to leave the words all on the page.

    It is my hope that my words and my experiences, educate, inspire and uplift those who read them!

    ​I thank you so much for checking this out! Thanks for being on this journey with me!
