Almost 24 years later...


Hello again!
         
         I just realized I never really introduced myself...silly me. No time like the third post to do so.
My name is Liz Taylor, however, for some of you it's Elizabeth, Liz, Lizzie, Lizard, Beth...well the list goes on. 
     
        I recently graduated (January 2017) with my Bachelors Degree in Photography and Graphic Design. It's now a week away from April 1, three months after graduation, and almost two months before my 24th birthday...my how time goes by.

        Have you ever taken a moment to think about how much God has blessed you within so many years of your lifetime? 

        Every so often I find myself taking a step back and looking at the different blessing and accomplishments God has given me in my lifetime (almost 24 years long). In my almost 24 years of life I've traveled the world as an Air Force kid, have two best friends (one from TX since I was in 6th grade, and the other from SC since I was in High school), married the man of my dreams, graduated from two colleges with three degrees (two Associates, and one Bachelors), and just a few days ago I finished illustrating (my first big illustrating opportunity) a children's book from DelTech (where I first fell in love with photography and design). 

       I am at a lost for words... God is so AMAZING!!! Only He was able to give me such amazing blessings. But you know what makes me stand in awe of the different blessings and accomplishments? That I am only almost 24  and there are so many new blessings God is waiting to bless me with. How cool is that?

      Today I hope and encourage you to take a moment to thank God for the blessing He has given to you, and for so many more blessings that will come!

      {Deuteronomy 28:2} 
     All these blessings will come upon you and overtake you if you obey the Lord your God...       
        Until next time
        
         Liz

One already!

Happy First Birthday to our sweet Teddy Bear! And Happy Birthday mama and papa bear! Thanks right! Our sweet baby boy Theodore Leo Taylor is ONE already!  I can't believe he is one years old already. Wasn't it just yesterday I was at the hospital breathing through those contractions with so much joy and excitement to meet our baby and see if God had blessed us with a baby boy or girl?!  This past year has been full of so many new adventures, eye opening understands, and pure joy:discovering a deeper prayer life and seeking God for how to put our baby to sleep because we want sleep too, giving grace to myself as God showed me who He was creating me to be as a mama in this new season of life, being reminded that I don't have to parent alone, that God has blessed me with a husband I can lean on, and a wonderful loving father to our sweet Teddy bear, and that's just a few. How quickly a year has flown by, someone once said "the nights are long but the years ...

Are you living...

a fearful life or a faith filled life?  A few years ago a co-worker and sister in Christ shared where God had her and this questioned appeared: Are you living by fear or by faith? What a beautiful, challenging, and encouraging question! In the last week or more our lives have changed what our "normal" routines look like due to the virus outbreak. How are you doing with this change? What was your first reaction? Was is to run out to all the stores and stock up on everything to live on and for how long? Was is to check in with your families from around the world to see how they are? Did you think to check on the elder lady or gent who lives alone next door who might need something? Did you stop and pray?  The Lord has brought this question to my heart "Liz, are you living by fear or faith?" In this world that we live in it's very easy to become distracted, distant, busy. But how's your walk with the Lord these days? Are you living in f...

Happy Easter!!!

He is RISEN!   He is RISEN INDEED!!! What a beautiful Easter day! When God woke me up this morning at 6am, before the sunrise, I started to think about all the Easter Sunday's I have celebrate throughout my life so far. I wondered how many I've celebrate... if I did my math right, I've celebrated 27 (thanks hubby for checking my math) Easters! WOW!!! that's a lot of Easter celebrations!  For  most of us, we have different family traditions for so many holidays...what are your family traditions for Easter?  I started thinking about what my family of origin ( the family that God blessed me with: my mother Terri, my earthly father Herb iii, my brother Herb IV, and my baby sister Sarah. ) Easter traditions were growing up, here is what I remember: we would dye Easter eggs and decorate with the magic clear crayon and stickers that came in the box mom bought from the store, we did egg hunts hosted by the Air Fo...
