Something new...and Fear

Hey guys!

Awhile back I had a dream of a place where I could write, share, connect, encourage others, and have an outlet to some creative juices (I'm not sure what creativity I have left in me with 2 toddlers who seem to drain me ha!) So this blog has been in the works for awhile and I now have the courage to start writing and sharing with you guys!

As I'm writing this I feel anxiety creeping in - the fear of trying something new, fear of failing and being misunderstood are all so real. Struggling with anxiety has been a journey with a lot of setbacks, but really leaning on God has been the biggest support and brought freedom to this part of my life. This verse is a constant reminder to give that anxiety to the Lord. Phil 4:6-7 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God. And the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts & your minds in Christ Jesus."

I also just read a book called "A Confident Heart" and it has taken me on a journey of really stripping away all of the places where we often "measure" our value from (ex. how good of a person we are, mom, wife friend, job, accomplishments etc) and focussing on finding our value through God and His measureless grace. (I will do a more in depth post about this book as it is truly amazing!)

Thank you so amazing friends and family who have pushed me out of my "box".

That's all I have for today as my kiddos are calling but I'll be back soon!

Love
