Why I’m Starting Here: With Faith

It feels only right that my very first official blog post begins with faith.

I can honestly say I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for God. That doesn’t mean my life is perfect, that I have everything figured out, or that I don’t struggle with anxiety, fear, or overwhelm because I absolutely do. But it does mean I know I can get through it. I know I can overcome the hard days because I have Jesus Christ.

Over the years, my faith has grown in ways I never expected. Through motherhood, life changes, and seasons that stretched me thin, my Heavenly Father has taught me how to rely on Him fully. I’ve learned to trust Him, to lean on Him, and to surrender the things I was never meant to carry alone. Motherhood along with every other part of life can feel heavy at times, but I’ve learned to place those burdens into the hands of my Savior, my Lord, Jesus Christ.

There are still days when I feel anxious, worried, or completely lost in this season of motherhood. But even on those days, I trust God to carry me through. Instead of rushing through life or wishing seasons away, I’ve learned to pause and ask, “God, what are You teaching me right now?”

For the past few years, the lesson has been trust. Trusting God. Trusting His timing. Trusting Him even when my feelings tell a different story. Learning not to rely on emotions alone, but to rest in the truth that He is with me, guiding me, protecting me, and walking beside me every step of the way.

As we move into 2026, my goal is simple but deeply personal to continue growing my relationship with Jesus. I want my prayers to become conversations, an open phone line with God that I never hang up.

Recently, while reading Judges chapter 3, I was reminded of something powerful. Sometimes though not always we need to struggle. Sometimes we need to go through the hard things. Not because God has abandoned us, but because we’re not in control. He is. And trusting Him truly trusting Him is what carries us through every season.

So to you mama reading this today, whatever you’re holding right now, I encourage you to place it in His hands. Whatever it looks like, whatever season you’re in, He’s got you.

You don’t have to carry it alone.
