Thoughts of a Christian Farm Girl.

How many times have you thought to yourself "I'm so ugly." or, "If only I wasn't this fat." "If I just didn't have this or that." and so on. A bunch right? But how many times have you told yourself, "I'm beautiful." How many times have you actually believed you are beautiful just the way you are? How many times have you told yourself, "In God I am beautiful." God doesn't see what the world classifies as ugly. He sees your heart. He sees your true self. Your real and true beauty. He sees YOU. The world judges us by our looks, but God judges us by what's in our heart. Too much of the time we focus on what the world sees instead of what God sees. When we should be focusing on God we get caught up in what other people think of us. Here's a reminder. You are beautiful. God has made YOU exactly the way He wants you. We destroy our bodies because of what the world thinks. We ignore God when it comes to things ...

Today was warm enough to let our little kittens outside. Okay they're not so little, they're four months old. Anyway.... So after awhile the kittens came in but we couldn't find one. Little Kamri was no where to be seen. We looked and looked but couldn't find her. My siblings told me she probably was just under the house and that she would come out when she was hungry. But I wasn't satisfied. After looking awhile more and I finally just made peace that she would come out when she was hungry. So I went inside and layed down in my bed. Still praying for Kamri, I grabbed a note I had left for myself. It had a bible verse I wanted to remind myself to study about. I grabbed my Bible and read it. I then continued to flip around in my Bible and found something entitled "The Lost Animals." Perfect for my situation! It was in 1 Samuel chapter 9. "And the asses of Kish Saul's father were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, Take now one of the servants w...

                 I signed up to be an influencer for the book "Out of The Ashes." by Tracie Peterson and Kimberly Woodhouse. I had actually forgotten that I had signed up so it was a great surprise to wake up and receive the book in the mail! This was a great book about finding God, forgiveness, and realizing that true love really exists. I fell in love with the characters. Tracie and Kimberly really brought out the magic and beauty of Alaska.  (which is where the book is set.) And I was so glad to see the characters from the first book in the series again! The first book in the series is actually the first book I ever read by Tracie Peterson and Kimberly Woodhouse. I fell in love with the book!! I totally recommend both books to anyone looking for a Christian message, or just a fantastic read!   Tracie Peterson and Kimberly Woodhouse are two of my favorite authors. They really make you feel when you read their boo...

I literally have so much to be thankful for. We all always have something to be thankful for. But we don't always acknowledge that. And we don't always realize we do.  Is there something that you dread doing? Like say doing the dishes? Or milking the goats? (I'm a farm girl, get used to it.) I wanna encourage you to instead of complaining about doing that hated chore, thank God for it. Thank God for everything, even the simplest things. Be in a constant state of thankfullness. Y'all check out this Instagram page  https://www.instagram.com/power.of.being.positive/ It is a GREAT inspirational page, and all of the pictures and captions are taken and thought up by them. I seriously love this page. It's helped me through a lot of tough times. The lady who runs the page is sweet and kind and one of the best people you'll talk to.
