I write.
When I have no inspiration.
When my heart is sad.
When I don’t want to.
When I don’t know what to say next.
I write anyways.
When my hands hurt.
When time is ticking.
I write
It may be bad, but it’s something.
I continue to write

Words are powerful
I write.
When I have no inspiration.
When my heart is sad.
When I don’t want to.
When I don’t know what to say next.
I write anyways.
When my hands hurt.
When time is ticking.
I write
It may be bad, but it’s something.
I continue to write

Let it show,
Who you are.
Don’t let life dim your light.
Some days being another is easier.
But you must work hard
To be you.
What do you look like?
Will circumstances change you?
Or
Make you stronger?
Will you win?
Be you even when it’s
Impossible.

Where do you go?
I go to God
He is my hiding place.
When this life is too much I run to him.
If you need to find me, ask God.
When I’m sad, lonely, confused, or scared.
When I’m happy, joyful, and peaceful.
You will find me in God.
If your hiding place is also God, maybe we will meet.
No matter what
I run to God.


Every season will have its time.
Every moment shines.
The season you’ve been hoping and praying for will come.
It will have it’s time to shine.
Life is a series of seasons.
Some good, some bad, some numb.
But all with purpose.
All necessary and all on time.
Every season.
Words can’t describe
how I see you.
But I will tell you Anyway.
You are the one I chose.
The one I want to pour my joy on, my love on, my grace on.
You are the reason why.
When I see you
I know I made no mistakes.
You are my precious child.
You are the light of my eyes.
I see you, child.
Sometimes I need to jump.
I need to get it done.
There is an urgency.
I will never fly until I jump.
I can no longer delay it.
The moment is now.
Move now, Move now, Move now.
I can’t see my wings yet.
But once I jump
They will appear, They will appear.
I close my eyes

It is inspiring to see kid entrepreneurs do amazing things. 9-year-old Sophia Elisse is the founder of Adorned Jewel with the help of her mother. She makes beautiful earrings herself from pom studs to fierce poms to tassels in any color. Everyone who buys her earrings loves them.
I got the opportunity to wear yellow tassels she made and it was beautiful and lightweight. I plan on buying some more tassels because they would be a perfect gift for this Christmas season. She is truly inspiring. I encourage you to try her earrings for yourself.

You said you would so you did.
The world can be harsh
But your dreams will grow bigger.
You are brave and you will conquer.
Never let others silence you.
You will adorn the world.

My soul wants to scream
at the top of its lungs
Has so much to say, so many emotions
But how can it yell when I’ve placed it in a box.
With every action I sealed it more, not letting it speak.
I have sealed it to a point where the box won’t budge.
Mind, body, and soul
Words, paper, and envelope.
The body is the envelope.
But the envelope without a letter has no purpose.
The body without a soul is just flesh and bones.
The mind is the paper.
A paper without words is just a dead tree.
A soul without a body is just an imprisoned spirit.
The mind without a body is just a brain.
The Soul is unseen
Yet it is a part of you
Makes your essence
The soul is your humanity
It makes up who you are
It keeps everything together
It holds your secrets
It guards your heart day and night
My soul was stitched together by my God
Our souls are unseen to human eyes.
But once you see through God’s eyes, all you see is the real you
You are ready for your purpose.
Just like in the bible
May your whole spirit, soul and body
be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Should I take the risk?
Should I open my heart?
Should I jump without knowing where I’ll land?
Should I?
Risk it all for maybe, for possibly, for in between.
Risk embarrassment,
Risk rejection,
Risk disappointment,
Risk judgment.
Should I say the words that may change our lives?
That may break my heart.
Should I?
Should I just pray and wait.
What if the time for waiting is over.
It might be time to take a step.
I could be wrong,
I could be right.
The only way I’ll know
Is by risking it all.
It can lead to your biggest mistake.
Or to the best decision you ever make.
Sometimes you just need to take the risk.
You don’t know the outcome.
But that’s what a risk is.
An I don’t know
but I must do it.

I want him to have joy.
Not because of me.
I want him to have joy with or without me.
I want God to be his joy.
I want to see it in his face.
I want our joy United to bring joy
To others.
