Hi,

I haven’t written in a while. I want to be better at this, to write and leave my thoughts more often, but I find myself scared and pushing back against the idea of it at times. I am sharing my thoughts, and that’s terrifying. They are important, though. I feel like this is something the Lord has called me to do, and it is scary and hard, but I love to write. I might not be the best at it, but I love it, and I have been asked to share it.

I have a sweet friend who made me think of something today that I have not thought of in a while. There is an image I absolutely love, to your left. I love this image because of the message I feel it shares.

I don’t know how many times I my life I felt like this little girl. Standing there holding something I love with Christ in front of me, wanting to give me more if I just let Him.

I have made big life changes recently, and I’m grateful for them, but they can also be stressful. I am learning how to give Jesus Christ and my Heavenly Father my Teddy bear so they can give me something better. Trusting that it will be better can be really hard. Sometimes I want to hold on so tightly to what I know that I cause myself more panic than if I were to let go and let God. So, I want to invite everyone to put down the burdens we are carrying, let go of the fear, and work towards letting God.
