My life!

Waking up feeling like you are a failure, thinking no one loves you, feeling like you fail every day, feeling like you can never accomplish things, always freaking out about a lot of things, struggling with friendships, feeling like you just can't go any further, and many other things. This is how I have felt for the past year and a half.

I know that God has a special plan for my life. When I feel as if everyone is against me and hates me, I need to remember that Christ loves me... And that is all that matters. I have been hurt, rejected, made fun of, unaccepted by many. But no matter who rejects, hurts, doesn't accept, or makes fun of me... I need to continue to be who I am in Christ. Because that is all that will matter later on. Even if everyone rejects me or whatever, Christ will always be here for me. And He will never leave nor forsake me. He loves me for who I am. He doesn't care if I am not rich or beautiful in mans eyes. Instead, He thinks you are beautiful no matter what the world thinks. 

Friends, family, or anyone you meet, may leave you or get mad at you... But Christ will NEVER leave you. He is the only true friend that will actually be by your side no matter what. 

Even though I have been struggling with various things this past year and a half, I know that God will help me through all this. Sometimes I feel like I cannot go on. But I know that Christ will give me strength, even in my times that I feel like I can't. 

Be who you are, and don't be who the world wants you to be, instead be yourself and Christ will take you that way.

Blessing #7








I am totally blessed to have Aaron in my life! 

Aaron, I am so thankful to have you in my life. You have been such an awesome little brother to me. You are super encouraging, loving, caring, forgiving, kind, patient, honest, and so many other things. I thank God for you daily. Every time I am down, and it seems like no one will be able to cheer me up... You somehow always do. Every time I need comfort, you always comfort me. I feel like I have known you all my life, when really I have only known you for four years. I am so glad that I can be myself around you and I don't have to act like someone I am not. You have been such an encouragement to me of how a godly young teenager should act. You are super forgiving, even when others have wronged you. You are super kind and caring to everyone you are around. I love that you are very welcoming to those around you. I never see you leave anyone out. I am so excited to see what God is going to continue to do in your life. I pray that God will continue to build you into a godly young man He wants you to be. Continually seek Christ and grow in the Word of God.

Blessing #3!


I love my friend Mackenzie! She is such a great example and encouragement to me. I am so blessed that she is in my life.

Kenzie, I love you so much! You have such a servants heart, you love to put other before yourself, and you are kind to others. I see that God is working in you a lot. I feel like I have known you for the longest time, when we really have only known each other for about years. I am so thankful that I can go to you anytime I need it. It is so encouraging to know that I can go to you when I need prayer, encouragement, advice, or anything. I am so thankful that we both can be open and honest with one another (even when it hurts). It has been so much fun to have sleepovers, parties, beach days, mall days, startbucks hang outs, studying days, Disneyland days, and the many more to come. It has been so much fun to make tons of fun, weird, awkward, memories with you and your sister. Keep striving for Him lovely! Continue to be a bright light for Jesus. Serve Him with all your heart, even when it is hard. Know that you will go through things all throughout your life, but Jesus will be with you. And only He, will always sustain you.  Love you dear!

I am extremly blessed to have Madelyn in my life. She has been such a blessing to me since I have known her.

Madelyn, you have been such a huge blessing to me. I am so thankful to have you in my life. When you see someone left out, you always include them. Your smile makes everyone else smile. Your hugs are the best! I feel like I have known you since we were babies, when we really have only known each other for almost 4 years. I am so glad to be able to call you my sister. You are always super joyful and fun to hang out with. I love you so much! Keep striving for Him daily, and continue to be a bright light for Jesus no matter what. When people try pulling you away from Him, pull away from them and continue to seek Him. He will always be with you. No matter who fails you, Jesus will never fail nor leave you. Love you Maddy!
