For the person who feels surrounded by obstacles a For the person who feels surrounded by obstacles and roadblocks. 🦋
You may feel surrounded by obstacles to hopes and dreams. 
Don’t stress out. 
You have a purpose. 
God has a plan. You are exactly where you need to be.

🐚The ocean is where I return when I need a space t 🐚The ocean is where I return when I need a space to breathe.  But what if I took it deeper and made it a silent retreat.  Just me, the ocean, God… and my phone. 
What would happen in this quiet? 
Silence is scary. It was for me. During that chapter the only time I was quiet was at the movies or asleep.  I wasn’t sure what to do.
But when I finally stopped wrestling with this “sacred listening,” something shifted. In the quiet, I felt permission to begin writing.

The ocean, my backyard, even my living room became a places I return to write Surrounded and to hear reminders of God’s love, grace, and healing.  It was there that, even when I didn’t know what to do, repair and rebuilding were already happening. 
If you are doing your own repair and rebuild, and  you need this reminder, this for you:
✨Surrounded Declaration✨📖
I am surrounded by love, even in the places that feel empty.
I am surrounded by grace, even when I fall short of my own expectations.
I am surrounded by purpose, even when I can’t see the full picture.
I am surrounded by beauty and reminded of His goodness. 🪷✨
What is God rebuilding in you? 🌅

“How you gonna win when you ain’t right within?” “How you gonna win when you ain’t right within?”
There’s a quiet war in our minds involving the sneaky lies that take root when you’re weary. These whispers say, “You’re not enough,” or “It’s too late for you.” For me, those lies moved me into panic, often closing my ability to see God’s prespective. 
You may be a mom, a professional or a caregiver, those are your assignments and they may change. But your identity is “Beloved.” You were known and celebrated by God  before you ever took your breath. 
I wrote Surrounded for the reader who is tired of of feeling “not enough for some” and “too much for others.” I realized that the longer I embraced this, the harder it became to recognize what was happening underneath.
When striving defines purpose and smiles hide deep wounds,  it wasn’t just emotional fatigue; it was identity fatigue. Naming that truth was the first breath of relief. 
Have you felt this way? If so,take a breath. 💨
There’s more for you here. 🙏🏾
What if we stepped into each new day trusting that God is leading us to new beginnings? A new sense of trust in our masterpiece status. 
Who you are is rooted in who God says you are, not what you do.  Ephesians 2:10 reminds us the we are a masterpiece. That we are made new. Everyday. Yesterday is old. But today, is new. 
We can be exhausted by our circumstances but we are surrounded by clarity about who we are:
Created. Celebrated. Loved. No mean words by others or expectations of perfection, demotion or promotion can move that holy bar.
Put 🧘🏽‍♂️in the comment if you’re breathing in this truth today. 
Selah. 🙏🏾

🌿What do you do when life catches you off guard? 🌿What do you do when life catches you off guard? 
When the mountain in front of you feels too big and the loss, anxiety, and uncertainty feels  more than you can hold?
Looking back during those times, I can see God’s gentle hand surrounding me in the darkest times. 
This verse in 2 Chronicles 20:12 was a steady reminder that I could hold fear and yet be faithful. 
Jesus in his goodness and love has the capacity to hold both. 🤍
Surrounded was written during those times of searching: quiet moments in my back yard, in early mornings walks and yes sometimes off the beaten path running with Jesus. 🏃🏾‍♀️
It grew from moments I stopped pretending I had it all together and needed to the One who could help me hold it together.
So if you’re walking an unknown road, Keep Your Eyes Up.

🦋 Why the butterfly? A dear friend recently asked 🦋 Why the butterfly?
A dear friend recently asked me why the butterfly holds such a special place in my heart.
To me, it’s a symbol of resilience, strength, and purpose. Just like my mom. 💜
They never linger long, yet bring beauty, presence and purpose wherever they go. Every time I see one, I’m reminded that her energy and spirit live on in me. I can offer the same in my own way. 
On October 31, 2020, my sweet mom went home to be with Jesus. She taught me how to worship through the hard stuff—how to keep walking with Him, even when life doesn’t make sense. 🙏🏾
She was deeply loved by us…and by her community. I miss her every single day.
If you see anything praiseworthy or excellent in me, I most likely learned it from her. 💖
I wish you could have met her. 🌸
Forever loving you, Mom. 🦋
