+ mini life update!!!

It has been a few weeks since my last blog post, and I have been struggling to find time to write freely outside of college assignments. *I will keep this blog post short until I have more time.

As I have said before, I want my blog to be a place where I share honest thoughts, opinions, and life struggles. With that said, I have been struggling with anxiety and stress. I have found that it takes over my daily life, physically and mentally. Even when I try to mask or push it under the rug, it still finds a way to make an appearance.

Life is heading toward an exciting and beautiful chapter full of change; it is getting there that comes with its challenges. I will not hide my struggles on this journey God has me on. Life is not perfect, nor will it ever be, and I think it is critical to express every part of daily life.

As I navigate this time in my life, I would appreciate it if you would keep me in your prayers for the next few weeks as I wrap up my craziest semester yet. I want to thank you all for your support, and I pray you all can find joy in your every day with me!

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6, ESV Bible)

"I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you." (Psalm 32:8, ESV Bible)

"Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7, ESV Bible)

My Testimony

Hello everyone, my name is Hannah, and this is my story. I’m a college student, artist, sister, and daughter, but most importantly, I’m a born-again Christian. What is a Christian? A Christian is a follower of Jesus Christ. Christians believe that Jesus came into this earth perfect, flawless, and lived a sinless life. Jesus not only lived a perfect life, but He sacrificed Himself for us and rose from the grave three days later. Jesus is the Son of God who created you and me and has sacrificed His Son for His children in hopes that we would believe in Him. This is what was instilled in my family ever since I could remember. I live with my loving parents and my older brother who are also Christians, and at the age of four years old, I also surrendered my life to Jesus. I wanted to know, experience, and live out that same forgiveness and love that Jesus offered the rest of my family. Life, however, has its ups and downs. Christians are viewed as perfect people who have no fear or ...

When was the last time you did something for the first time?

  Unpopular opinion: Pinterest is one of the superior social media platforms.   I have far too many pins to count and have grown a flourishing collection of aesthetic images and cute outfits. On Pinterest is where I find both faith-based and generic quotes. I like to save these pins to a specific board so that one day I can go back and make it my phone lock-screen or write them in my calligraphy style. Often enough, quotes will stand out to me. In this case, I have heard this quote from multiple different platforms, and every single time I see it, I ask myself the question:  When was the last time you did something for the first time? I have had a lot going on in my life the last month; things I would never like to experience again and situations that made me strong. During that time, I realized my anxiety about focusing on the future. I have struggled with this since my senior year of high school, and I think this battle never really went away. Over the last six m...

2023 Word of the Year

2023 = Confidence   After thinking over different words for a few weeks, I have settled on  Confidence  for my 2023 Word of the Year. The word I chose for 2022 perfectly fit the phases of my life I was going through and how I wanted to respond to those situations with  Kindness . In 2023 I want to carry on the progress I have already worked on from 2022 by finding godly confidence in all I do and who I am. In other words, I want to become confident in Christ and who God is creating me to be. With the plans set before me in 2023, this year will push me beyond my comfort zone, and I pray I will experience confidence in God's plan and my self-image. Typically when I choose a word, I want it to relate to Scripture; otherwise, my choice is in vain. Here are a few Scripture verses that came to mind when picking Confidence . Hebrews 13:6 "So we can confidently say, "The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?" Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things th...
