We knew each other in middle/high school, now we’re adults and because of Beautycounter, reconnecting and working and dreaming together.

HOW. COOL. 

This is my ‘why’ with Beautycounter — the opportunity to cultivate friendships and help and love women where God has them, connected by clean beauty products.

When you abide in Christ, when you open yourself to His Spirit’s leading and changing, when you trust and obey Him, your whole being can become ministry.

Whatever you do, do it for the glory of God, do it with God, do it and see people as Jesus saw them, with needs and dreams, and love them. 

I have started more endeavors and realized more dreams in the last year then I think in my entire life. Joining @beautycounter was one of them. 

So I encourage you also — 

Take yourself seriously and not too seriously. Work diligently. Dream big. Be faithful. Have fun. Rest on Jesus. Hold it all with open hands. And enjoy it.

I love what our pastor said this morning — If it I love what our pastor said this morning — If it was just the cross, we’d be a bunch of forgiven corpses. We have been saved TO something, the richest and fullest of life, in Christ, forever. 

May we be courageous people who know real hope and endurance in the sorrow of life and real gratitude and wonder in the good of it.

What is our hope in life and death?
Christ alone, Christ alone
What is our only confidence?
That our souls to him belong
Who holds our days within his hand?
What comes, apart from his command?
And what will keep us to the end?
The love of Christ, in which we stand

Jeans & Converses

I am the poster child for jeans and Converses. I am all about feeling comfortable and confident when I go anywhere. I am also all about being fun and unique and different. And while my default is often comfort, I have come to realize  that there is a great deal of confidence that comes with taking that extra measure to drab up.

My fearfully and wonderfully made comes out most when I feel confident. Not in a prideful or arrogant way, just in a simple “get excited about life and make choices that make you feel confident” way. Nothing wrong with that, I think.

It’s exciting to plan and decide what kind of style you want to sport.

“You cannot use someone else’s fire. You can only use your own. And in order to do that, you must first be willing to believe that you have it.” — Audre Lorde

If you don’t want to mimic the culture’s version of “style,” don’t. Each human on this planet has their own fire, but many don’t believe it. Enter: insecurity and self-doubt. God created you to be you. I feel inspired to believe in my own fire, my own quirks and style and personality. And believe that it is wonderful, and that it has the potential to bring a lot of good and a lot of life to the community I’m in.

I get excited about that! So, anyone who sees me  in a dress,  Chuck Taylor’s, and a smile on my face, I hope they find the courage to believe in their own fire.

“Do not be anxious about anything.” Phil 4:6 “Do not be anxious about anything.” Phil 4:6

For any fellow recovering earnaholics out there, an encouragement: 

‘Anything’ doesn’t only encompass what is outside our control — the future, loss, pain, etc. 

Anything also includes things regarding our life with God. 

“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed (synonyms: unsettled, disheartened), for I am your God.” Isaiah 41:10

Fear not, He is in you. And happy to be there. 
Fear not, He’s not changed His mind about you.
Fear not, you are right with Him even now because of Christ. 
Fear not, He delights in you. 
Fear not, nothing can separate you from Him. Even you.
