Why I’m Starting Here: With Faith

It seems fitting that my very first official blog post starts with faith.

I can genuinely say I wouldn’t be where I am today without God. This doesn’t mean my life is perfect, that I have everything figured out, or that I don’t face anxiety, fear, or overwhelm, because I certainly do. However, it means I know I can get through it. I know I can overcome the tough days because I have Jesus Christ.

Over the years, my faith has grown in unexpected ways. Through motherhood, life changes, and challenging seasons, my Heavenly Father has taught me to rely fully on Him. I’ve learned to trust Him, lean on Him, and surrender the burdens I was never meant to carry alone. Motherhood, along with every other aspect of life, can feel overwhelming 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 trusting in God. Trusting His timing. Trusting Him even when my feelings suggest otherwise. Learning not to rely solely on emotions, 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 yet deeply personal: to continue growing my relationship with Jesus. I want my prayers to become conversations, an open 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, mama, if you’re 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.
