My Beloved Child



In honors of Father's Day, I'd like to share with you the letter that I have gathered up using scripture from your Heavenly Father.


My Beloved Child,


I know everything about you. When you were still in your mother's womb, I knew exactly who you would be before you were born (Psalm 139:13).
Before your parents even chose a name for you, I had already called you Mine (Isaiah 43:1). And now, every day I am right there with you, walking ahead of you and protecting you. You are never out of my sight. I even know what you say before you even speak it (Psalm 139:3-10).
You have stolen my heart (Song of Solomon 4:9), and I have created so much just for you; relationships, food, mountains, oceans, sunsets, animals, trees, flowers, (Genesis 1:28-29).
When you asked for my forgiveness through Christ, I forgave you once and for eternity. I will never hold anything against you (Psalm 32:1-2). Even now, there is nothing that could ever make me stop loving you.
Every time you turn away from Me, I am waiting for you with open arms (Luke 15:22-24).
This world can be a difficult place, and I don't want you walking through it alone. The world will lie to you, but I will always tell you the truth because I am the Truth (Romans 3:4 & John 14:6).
You may be forgotten in the world, but I will never forget you. How could I? I have engraved your name on the palms of My hands (Isaiah 49:15-16).
I have so many dreams for your life. Your dreams cannot contain the dreams I have for you (Jeremiah 29:11). I want to make you stronger than you realize you can be (Psalm 29:11) and give you supernatural peace that the world will not understand (Philippians 4:7).
 are weak, I will be strong (2 Corinthians 12:10).
I will carry you in my arms if I have to, that way you can be as close to Me as possible (Isaiah 40:11).
You can count on me to fight for you (Psalms 18:35 & 146:6-9).
When you are in pain, I will comfort you and turn your sadness into joy. (Jeremiah 31:13).
Don't lose hope, because a day is coming when there will be no more crying or pain (Revelation 21:4).
 I want you to have an abundant life every day through the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead (Romans 8:11 & John 10:10). I want you to learn and develop the gifts I have given you so you can use them for my glory (1 Corinthians 1:7).
I have chosen and appointed you to bear fruit for me. Go share my love and tell of My grace so that others may know me as well. Remember I am with you always, even to the end of the age (Matthew 28:18-20).
I love you with an everlasting love. The depths of the ocean is smaller than the love I have for you.

God, your Father.

Motivational Inspiration/ /Living Temple

"Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." ( 1 Corinthians 10:31 ) This was ( and still is ) my mantra for a healthy lifestyle. If you've tried the New's Year Resolution of a healthy diet and failed at it miserably, you're not the only one. Everyone tries to shun the guilt of indulging ourselves over the holidays. Trying every diet out there, going as far as half-starving yourself for that perfect image that society tells you is necessary. Forget it. It's not worth it. Who's body is it anyway? It's not the world's. And it most definitely isn't your own. We were born with a living temple. God breathed life into you for His purpose. Not ours, but His. Life is a precious thing, and we take it for granted too often. Our bodies deserve to be treated as living sacrifices for God because in the Bible that's exactly what His will is for them. "I beseech you therefore, brethren

Motivational Inspiration + Book Review/ /Finding Worth

I partnered up with Livy, from Crown of Beauty magazine to write a post focusing on Finding Worth. To all the girls out there who are searching to find themselves. To all the ones who are wanting to feel loved or worth something in this world. To all the daughters of the Heavenly King, this is for you.  'Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.' ( Titus 3:5-7 ) If you are a born-again believer in Christ, then you are one of His children. Which makes you a daughter of the King of Kings, Lord of Lords. You are His heir. 'Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised .' ( Proverbs 31:30 ) &

Motivational Inspiration/ /Cast Your Care

Yesterday was one of those days when you go into the bathroom to find a quiet place to internally scream. Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this. Everything started out perfectly at dawn. Had all my ducks in a row and every bow was perfectly timed. Then bad news came and with it a multitude of mistakes and mishaps that made the workday seem to stretch. Never before in my days of working was there a day with so many errors in it. I felt like a palm tree in the midst of a hurricane, getting tossed and flipped by the oncoming storm. At one point the day met its climax and a sudden thought blew past my mind; I know the Master of the storm. What do I have to fear? I know the Master of the storm. The disciples were placed into a similar circumstance in Mark, however, their storm was literal rain and wind. Jesus was teaching parables on a boat to the many eager listeners that filled the beach. Once he was finished, he told the disciples to cross the sea o
