To know him & to make him known
Why I do what I do
“What a beautiful life this is that we have been blessed with. The Creator & Designer of the universe intricately wove each of us together with intention & purpose. I love capturing His glory in His creation while simultaneously using this art to reveal more of who He is. My heart is that each client feels the Lord's love through me & knows how valuable they are.”
The Gospel
While there is so much to explore in the Gospel message and the Truth of God's Word, a quick summarization is this. When God first created the human race and placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, He gave us free will, allowing us to make any decision that we wanted to. He only gave us one commandment, that we not partake of the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. However, we disobeyed Him, and sin entered the world. This is why this world is broken, full of suffering, pain, and evil. We doomed our race, and condemned ourselves to an eternity in hell since we disobeyed God.
The story did not end there. God had compassion on us, and His Love was so great that He sent His only Son into this world to die on a cross, paying the cost for our sin, that we might be set free. Believing in this gift and the hope that comes with it, recognizing the One who accomplished this miracle allows us to receive eternal life in Heaven. A beautiful forever, with amazing glory, and complete absence of pain. Additionally, accepting salvation welcomes us back into a sweet, intimate relationship with our Father. He indwells us through the Holy Spirit, giving us a Helper to guide us through life and protect us from the darkness of the world.
If you have any questions about salvation or about a relationship with God, please let me know. I would be incredibly happy to talk to you!
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life."
-John 3:16
My Personal Testimony
I am very thankful to have grown up in a Christian household and been raised in the amazing Truth of the Bible. From a young age, I recognized what a terrible sinner I was and how great my need for Jesus was. I officially accepted Jesus as the Lord and Savior of my life when I was five years old, but my story did not end there.
Throughout my childhood, I grew a lot in my relationship with the Lord and in my understanding of the Word. My faith really became so real and evident in my life when I entered my teenage years. Around this time, I started dealing with anxiety and insecurity (like any other teenage girl). I allowed those emotions to run my life, and I lived each day questioning who I was and what my purpose was. In this desperation, Christ ministered to my heart. One of the biggest influences was allowing the Truth of the Word to be spoken into my life when I was struggling with the lies of the devil. Instead of focusing on the evil of the world, my fears of what the future held, and consistently reflecting on my failures, I began to walk in the hope and joy that He has given me. Now, I walk with confidence knowing who I am, what I was created for, and Who holds my future. God continues to work in many ways in my life, constantly growing me more and helping me to better rely on Him and His plan.
My Prayer Over You
Lord, I thank you for the person reading this, that even if just for a moment, their journey has intersected with mine. Whether we begin an adventure together or if this is the only encounter we ever have, I pray over their life. I pray that they recognize the intentional love that you have for them. You intricately designed them to be exactly who they are, and You love them completely and wholly-more than any other person ever could. I do not know their whole story or what is going on in their life, but may they recognize their need for you. Through the difficult storms of life, may they come to you and feel Your peace and Your presence. May they ultimately acknowledge the gift of salvation that only can be received by recognizing You as Lord and Savior. You have always been faithful, and faithful You always will be. Thank you for all Your marvelous works. We eternally praise and love You. In Your Name I pray, Amen.
