   JESUS MAKES THE DARKNESS TREMBLE. Do you believe so?
I created this blog to show how impactful God/Jesus have been to my life. This is a place for young adults to find encouragement or just relate to some of this. you'll get to see how God has gotten me through abuse, trauma, abandonment, homelessness, etc.
      After 19 years of life, I believe God has been the only thing that has kept me going. life is tough and everyone goes through storms but to have such a powerful God that gets you through everything is beyond amazement.
      I want this to be a page that highlights how much the light of Jesus shines through the darkness.

Why Is It So Hard To Be Strong?

Why Is It So Hard To Be Strong?          Being strong takes a lot of work, it can be mind consuming to put faith over fear and strengthen your mind. Throughout all my life I had the thought process of I need to be strong, no crying, no showing emotion, no being afraid, etc. Most of the time it was manipulation from my father for these thoughts to come into my head. Well, what I learned is faking it until you make it doesn’t give you real strength. Real strength comes from allowing God to use your emotions as a pathway to let go of stress. When you let go of stress your body is able to function better and you become stronger. I also had to learn throughout most of my life that showing emotion is not a sign of weakness its a sign of trying to be strong for way too long.           God doesn't call us to be strong all the time though, he allows us to be able to break from time to time to show us how strong he is working in us. Being strong can take a lot of trials and breaking poi

Abused But Not Broken

Abused But Not Broken         Abuse is a hard topic to discuss for a lot of people but unfortunately, it's a topic that I'm familiar with. Abuse can still beat you down even when you're not being abused anymore. Abuse comes in many shapes and forms. I'm here to tell this part of my story it's not my favorite part of my story, but I just want to give an insight into how God can use even the broken pieces of you. Every hard moment in life can be a moment to learn, to break, to hear God, to push God away, to fall. to cry, and more. Any of these responses to hardship or trauma is acceptable.             Trauma does not define who you are or who you will become. This is very important to acknowledge when you are going through abuse or traumatic events. You are not who they say you are in the lies they breathe into you. Many people go through moments of feeling like they are trapped in their pain and can't get out. This is a normal response to have but it's not ok

You Can Do Hard Things

You Can Do Hard Things         Do you ever feel stuck or like you can't do something because it seems impossible? Yes, I have too, in fact, I'm feeling this way right now. You are not alone in this fight.       Trials and storms in our lives are entirely normal. The thing is, these storms can consume us and make us feel trapped under the surface. Trials and tribulations are meant to disrupt our lives, they're meant to break us. I can be honest and say I've had numerous storms I've had to weather that have been incredibly hard for me.        How do we get through these storms? How do we calm the voices in our heads? The simple answer would be to go to God with them. I can't say how often this answer can be unhelpful in a storm. It's not that it's wrong to do so and you should absolutely go to God with your struggles. However, when you're in a storm you can often feel like God isn't there. Sometimes we can feel like we're too far gone for His g
