I do not consider myself to be brave. Not even a little bit. I don’t like scary movies (I’m having kind of a hard time with Stranger Things). I don’t like haunted houses. I don’t like doing things with great risk.

But there are times when I did do something scary, and every time the Lord has proven himself to be faithful.

I spent a summer in Springfield Massachusetts, it was scary. I learned a great deal of what the body of Christ looks like and real ministry.

I moved to upstate New York. Only spending a weekend in New York during my time in Springfield. I accepted a job and moved in with two ladies I hardly knew. It was scary. But I increased in love for others and understood what it means to “bear with” one another.

I finished my degree. After moving back home from New York (my life for 2 years), I decided to finish my schooling. I learned about God’s ability to redeem. During this season he showed me forgiveness and how to forgive others.

I married my husband. Nothing like not feeling worthy to make marriage seem scary. But the Lord proves his faithfulness to me over and over again through the sweetest gift I have.

And my next scary thing..

Increasing in skills and business as a photographer.

This scary thing happened all by itself really. I felt unworthy, and unable to do my scary thing. But here we are. We will see how it goes.

All I know is that even when my fears cause me to stop. I have a very big and faithful God who will direct my steps.
