Walking By Faith part 1


Hello beautiful people!
     I have missed you all so very much! I know it has been well over a year since my last post and I can't wait to get back to sharing with you what God has been doing in my life over the past year plus...

    Last post was on "SUMMER BUCKET LIST" I hope you were able to enjoy and create your own list! 

   I am such an excited person as some of you may have experienced while talking with me in person or just by getting to know me. I just love how God has created me in that sense...but I've come along way to be able to love myself the way God has created me to be. 

   2018 was a year of growth for me both spiritually and psychically... 
As most years start off I made a new years resolution...to WALK BY FAITH. Now I know some of you are thinking, "ummm, Liz do you know what you just asked God to do in your life?!" To answer your question, I had no idea what God was about to do in my life, but I will tell you this much...He is faithful to His promises (Psalm 145:13). 

   January 2018 : Just the beginning...    
I started the year going through God's word. what better way to begin the year or your day then with our wonderful creator! 

God has a wonderful and beautiful way of teaching each of us what He needs us to learn, some of us need a little more tough love then others in different areas He is growing us. One of many areas God was growing me was to remind me how much HE LOVES ME & WANTS ME TO SPEND TIME WITH HIM DALIY. 

"Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us." 1 JOHN 4:11&12


February 2018 : Devon came home from basic training in the Coast Guard! We are so proud of him! 

God was reminding me the importance of family and how no matter how far away our family is He is always taking care of them!




March 2018 : Spring brought new inspiration and the Lord reminded me that He has given me a gift of creativity. I want to honor the one who gave me this beautiful gift and asked God how to begin...He told me "illustrate my WORD".

This was just the beginning to what God was about to do in my life as a illustrator/designer...

I love God's word and if you have never read what God has to say about everything I highly encourage you to do so. Don't be afraid of letting Him into your life...He loves you so very much and wants to get to know you! He has so much He wants to tell you, share with you, teach you, and bless you!
I can promise you that He has big plans for your life!

 "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

until next time,
Liz

What felt like a very long journey...

Hey all you beautiful people reading,  Happy Monday!!! I hope you are enjoying this wonderful Monday! I know 2020 has been a year like no other. full of unknowns ( more than normal), I know you all had plans of how this year was hoping to go (me included) , and when the spring just stared all our lives have been change.  God has certainly been growing and stretching us in our faith more than we thought possible, asking me daily "do you trust me?"... And when I started to me more real, more vulnerable, and more honest with Him and myself God was ready to take me on a journey I thought was so far out of my reach. Well I want to share with you all some absolutely, amazing, incredible, (these words can't begin to describe...) news I have been waiting so long to share... Today on August 31, 2020 Justin and I signed all our paperwork to our very first house!!! Yes! That's right! Our very first home. This has been an on going journey for over/pushing 3 years ( I think). I w...

In the Morning when I rise...

Give me Jesus... Have you ever heard a song that spoke to the very core of your spirit? This was a song that I've heard and sang many times over my life, but Monday morning my spirit cried out the first line of the song, " In the Morning when I rise, give me Jesus..." , and I stopped and understood that I needed to be feed spiritually! That in the busyness of my Sunday morning and throughout the day, I missed my quite time with my Heavenly Father, my Papa...And my soul cried out to Him. Since becoming a Mama and being able to hold, hang out, and enjoy spending time with my son Teddy, my quality times with my Papa has changed... I'm talking about my daily time with Jesus, my one on one feeding with the Lord and His Word... I know that may look different depending on your daily schedule and where God has you in your walk with Him but for me it use to look something like this: I'd wake up (tried to wake up before the alarm) pray, read and meditate on the Word ...

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...
