  • It hasn't been the easiest to stay home the last few weeks. Life has not been what we expected and planned for prior to 2020. How do you feel about everything so far?⁠ ⁠ Our wedding has been rescheduled, our honeymoon, looking for a place to live has been paused as well, and we were supposed to go on a medical mission trip in about a month. Doing school online saves me 2 to 3 hours of driving almost daily, but sometimes I rather be there.⁠ ⁠ I'm not worried about those things. I'm sad they were canceled, but God has the bigger picture in mind.⁠ ⁠ He sees beyond me, and looks toward good for ALL. What if this had to happen so others would give their hearts to God? I have read several stories of people actually going/returning to God. We are stubborn people and sometimes, it takes something serious to happen for us to look God's way.⁠ ⁠ I don't believe He caused this because God is all-loving, but He may have allowed it (read the book of Job in the Bible) for a bigger blessing in the end. It's something we will have to wait and ask God once we see Him face to face.⁠ ⁠ I'm doing my best to keep my joy and stay productive.⁠ ⁠ I wrote a new blog post last night about what to do while you are bored and stuck at home. Writing it and doing the graphics for it gave me a lot of joy! You can check it out by clicking the link in my Instagram profile, then clicking on "Latest Blog Post" -- easy read!
  • English/Español👉🏻⁠⠀ Today, I woke up very thankful. Things were not going so well this past week, but God answered our prayers:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 》Our university was stressing us out with all their decisions which did not seem beneficial/considerate to the students.⁠⠀ ✓But now, it's been fixed and things are looking brighter!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 》My fiancé works in the hospital & had to go to the floors with covid-19 infected patients without protective equipment on.⁠⠀ ✓But now, they are getting protective equipment.⁠ ⁠⠀ 》I was concerned that I wouldn't get the summer classes I needed on time because our advisors have been swamped.⁠⠀ ✓But now, the advisor responded so efficiently and I got the classes.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ✞ I know these may sound silly compared to the more important things happening in our world, but if God is answering these small/silly prayers, can you imagine how much more He will answer the BIG prayers? Those deep heartbreaks and needs?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Know that I am praying for ALL those who come across this. God be with you.⁠⠀
  • Remember the last pandemic in 2009 called H1N1 or swine flu? Well, my dad acquired it.⁠ ⁠ I was reading an autopsy result of a 50-year old patient who acquired covid-19 in China and he went through practically everything my dad went through back in 2009.⁠ ⁠ Medicine did ALL they could do for this 50-year old man and for my dad. My dad was told that if he didn't get better on his own that he would die.⁠ ⁠ God showed up BIG time for my dad. I share that testimony in this short YT video. See the🔗 in my IG profile.⁠ ⁠ God answers our prayers. God loves us more than we will ever know.⁠ ⁠ Scripture to read when you are anxious or going through tribulations: Psalm 91; Acts 14:22; John 16:33; Matthew 8:5-13, 23-27.⁠ ⁠ ps: please bare with me as I conquer my fear of talking to a camera and public speaking...it is not easy for shy introverts like me, but I have been improving...praise God :)
  • English/Español 👉🏻⁠⠀ Staying hopeful.⁠⠀ Staying faithful.⁠⠀ Keeping my joy.⁠⠀ Looking up towards Him.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ✞ though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand. Psalm 37:23–24.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Manteniendo la esperanza.⁠⠀ Siendo fiel.⁠⠀ Manteniendo mi alegría.⁠⠀ Mirando hacia Él.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ✞ aunque tropiecen, nunca caerán, porque el SEÑOR los sostiene de la mano. ‭Salmos‬ ‭37:24‬ ‭NTV‬‬.
  • Consider these two verses -- God says one thing. Then, satan manipulates God's words to be so SIMILAR, yet false truth.⁠ ⁠ Let us be vigilant of the "false truths" that we may believe or hear from satan.⁠ ⁠ What are our constant thoughts? Are they anxious, fearful, negative, or suppressive? ⁠Are they selfish? ⁠ Return to the Word and remember God's promises and truths!⁠ ⁠ ✞I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts. Psalm 119:45, NIV.⁠ ⁠ ✞But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation— if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel... Colossians 1:22-23, NIV.⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ps: if you got this far, woohoo! :) The pic above is from my new Bible! I am in looooove with this new Bible bc I get to take marginal notes. It has ignited a new love for scripture reading. Food for thought: Maybe a new Bible that you will love will help you spend more time in His word ☺️⁠ ⁠
  • English/Spanish👉🏻⁠⠀ Did you know that God is pleased and in love with you?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ We may go throughout our lives thinking God is a harsh critic and always unhappy with us because we stray from Him so much.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ We may even go through life thinking God is mad at us.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ A few years ago, I believed God was unhappy with me, and life felt cruel and harsh. It was really hard to feel that freedom in Christ that believers talked about.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ How can we ever grow in our faith or develop our relationship with God if we think this way?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It wasn't until I realized (through prayer and digging deep into the Bible) of His tremendous love for us -- that NONE should perish, but have everlasting life, hope and a future; John 3:16, Jer. 29:11.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Look at what God said to Daniel: O Daniel, man greatly beloved - Daniel 10:11.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ God even said this to Jesus after His baptism: This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased - Matt. 17:5.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ If we are His people and actively pursuing Him, how do you think He sees us?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The SAME way as Daniel and Jesus = as His greatly beloved children with whom He is well pleased!⁠⠀
  • English/Español👉🏻⠀ You know those times you feel like you are in a rut and you are having a hard time hearing from God or spending time reading His Word?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ And also those times when you are questioning if you are on the right path and if you are doing His will?⠀ ⁠⠀ When that happens to me, I always feel a need to listen to worship music.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I always pray beforehand so God can communicate with me through a worship song.⁠ I start praising Him.⠀ ⁠⠀ And the last time I felt this way, God told me two things:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 1. Stay focused on His Kingdom.⁠⠀ 2. Stop trying to have control.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I needed to hear that from God. Instantly, I felt relieved; I felt safe in Christ.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I think this is where this Bible verse comes from: He is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation.⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #flawedbutfaithful⁠⠀ #christianmindset⁠⠀ #happinessquotesforlife ⁠⠀ #christianwomeninbusiness⁠⠀ #humansofadventism⁠⠀ #bespirituallybold⁠⠀ #myutmostforhishighest ⁠⠀ #digitalmissionary⁠⠀ #faithbloggersofinstagram⁠⠀ #heythrivegirl⁠⠀ #digitaldisciple⁠⠀ #digitalevangelism⁠⠀ #comeuntome⁠⠀ #godisincontrolofmylife⁠⠀ #mindtheminimalism⁠⠀ #digitalministry⁠⠀ #thekingdomofheaven ⁠⠀ #bibleblog⁠⠀ #bibleblogger⁠⠀ #christianyoutuber⁠⠀ #faithwords⁠⠀ #mensajescristianos⁠⠀ #devocionales⁠⠀ #postwithpurpose⁠⠀ #howhelovesus⁠⠀ #thebiblesays⁠⠀ #faithittillyoumakeit⁠⠀ #sharejesus⁠⠀ #womenofworth⁠⠀ #blogwithme⁠⠀
  • I simply want to take this post to appreciate my fiancé. He helped me curl my ends in this picture -- I am really bad at anything hair related and nothing really stays which is why I keep it straight 100% of the time...⁠ ⁠ This past Saturday I was in a "mood" and I wanted to get out of that funk, but it didn't go away. I am thankful that he still wanted to stay by my side and he still made me laugh. He stayed positive, while I was grouchy... I am thankful he never lost his patience with me. #trueloveforever⁠ ⁠ To my single friends, don't get discouraged because there was a time I never thought I would get married.⁠ ⁠ Take this time to date God instead. What does that mean?⁠ ⁠ ✰Prioritize your time with God above all, even serving the church.⁠ ⁠ ✰Spend time reading His word. Get to know who God is.⁠ ⁠ ✰Dwell on His promises of good things for your life; memorize scripture.⁠ ⁠ ✰Pray meaningful prayers. Ask Him to give you an answer, regardless of what your prayers are about. Make it a conversation.⁠ ⁠ ✰Ask God to show you what needs changing within you. Maybe it's something you are a bit rebellious with, or something in your attitude/character that needs to be refined.⁠ ⁠ ✰Spend time serving others, whether it be your family, your school, through the church, or in your neighborhood.⁠ ⁠ ✰Don't listen to the negativity the enemy whispers into your ear.⁠ ⁠ ✞Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear. Isaiah 65:24.⁠ ⁠ ✞But as for me, I will look to the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me. Micah 7:7.
  • What gives you anxiety?⁠ For me, it's school. I put soo much pressure on myself to do great and have it all together... (do you do this with any area of your life?)⁠ ⁠ And then I think about the upcoming tests and I begin to wonder how I'll do. Will I study as thoroughly as I need to in order to do well? Am I going to pick the right answers or be fearful that I won't do well?⁠ ⁠ I tell God how I feel about this because I want to do well, but I don't want to put this pressure on myself anymore.⁠ ⁠ 》The *reality* is that I don't know what will happen the rest of today and I definitely don't know about tomorrow. I can only do my best TODAY.⁠ ⁠ »If I have made it this far in life, He allowed it.⁠ ⁠ »God has equipped me with everything I need for today.⁠ ⁠ 》I can rest knowing God is with me and guiding me 👏🏻ONE 👏🏻DAY 👏🏻AT👏🏻 A 👏🏻TIME. << I had to add special emphasis there.⁠ ⁠ ✓✓I encourage you to stay focused on TODAY. WALK BY FAITH. And TRUST God to guide you 👏🏻ONE 👏🏻DAY 👏🏻AT👏🏻 A 👏🏻TIME.⁠ ⁠ ✞Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble, Matthew 6:34.⁠ ⁠ ✞But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day, 2Peter 3:8.⁠ ⁠ ✞The LORD knows the days of the upright, And their inheritance shall be forever, Psalm 37:18.⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #powerofprayer🙏 #childofthelight #Workinggirllife #Smallblog #boldbraveyou #shepreneur⁠⠀ #gradschoolgrind #gradschoolprobs #welcometothe20s⁠⠀ #livegracefully #gradschoolmotivation #gradschoolsucks #gradschoolstruggles #faithinfluencer⁠⠀#gradschoolblues #gradschooladventures #gradschoollife #Jesusfeed #gradschoolblogger #gradschoolfriends #gradschoolgotmelike #gradschoolstruggle #coffeeandJesus #morningprayers #Heisworthytobepraised #mysaviorlives #howgreatthouart #mysaviormyGod #howgreatisourGod❤️ #howgreatismyGod ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀
