Where have I been?!

Hey guys!!
So I'm a little embarrassed about how I haven't been on here since August!! Say what?! So don't worry, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth or been adapted by aliens.. haha... After August things just went crazy...With life, school, Everything! I was struggling a lot in different areas and I knew I had to step away a bit from the blogging world, and start focusing more on me. I know that can sound selfish but so much of my life and I have continued to give out... Which is great! I love blessing people! But there comes a point where you need to just stop and refresh. So through the last five months I've been working on me, my heart and getting closer to God.. While trying to finish year 12 successfully! Also running a girls bible study group, working 15 hrs a week and being a youth leader... I just knew I had to take a step back!
I can now say that I have officially finished year 12!! YAY!! Now that I've finished, all dusted and all done... A new chapter is starting in my life. I have a few things planned this year (which I'll hopefully share next month). But I'm glad to say I'm back and I'm staying here in the blog world (at least for now! Unless God has other plans)!! It's been too long, but I feel refreshed and ready to tackle what comes my way! I going to start blogging again!! Just about life and well... Everything!! :)
Life is Beautiful! So enjoy it!!

So you're welcomed to tag along and join my journey! My journey in life as I still continue to grow in God's image!
Lot's of love and blessings!

I'm back... I've been busy loving on people!!



Hahaha Ok.... So this title is a little unusual, but it almost explains everything I've been up to as I haven't posted anything on my blog for the past week and a half... Firstly, I apologies for that!! I've been away and really busy with life, but I thought that today's post I could write down a few things that's been happening. Because well.... A lot of amazing things have happened!! :)

A week and a bit ago I went on a family camp with my church. It was seriously amazing!! The food was delicious, the place we stayed was exquisite and the services we had was just
The exquisite place we stayed. I felt like Juliet! ;)
amazing!!! Getting touched by God and just learning more about him really strengthened my faith! 

One of my favourite moments during the camp was being able to pray for a couple. Rewinding a bit.... For church camp we went on a treasure hunt which in these terms means: a treasure hunt with God looking for people to pray for/love on. So what happened we were able to talk with a few people, but didn't feel to bring Jesus in the conversation. Many people weren't even interested in talking... haha.. So that brought on an interesting experience.

After praying I came across an oldish (older) couple that I felt to start a conversation with. We started to talk about dogs first, then where they were from and eventually we got on to the topic of God, to find out they are also Christians. I felt to ask them if they needed prayer, and they said "Yes!". We prayed with them outside of Wendy's! It was just an amazing moment of really finding that courage in God, to not be afraid and to trust Him!

When camp had finished, I didn't want to lose this hunger, relationship with God. I really just wanted to keep blessing people! So I have decided to do the exact thing and to just look for opportunities to bless people. To do those random acts of kindness! To show people the love of Christ!

So I felt through this whole experience, I've learnt not to rush throughout life, but to just take it slow and see if you can stop to bless someone or love on someone. Sometimes we miss the opportunities to bless someone as we are too busy with our own life.

A few days after camp, I was able to pray for a young girl for healing over her body in my local supermarket. No matter where you are, you can love on people, bless or pray for someone. I seriously encourage anyone that's reading this to take a leap of faith and bless someone. Who knows, you might just make someone's day!! :)

Quote for the day: "Never look down on someone unless you're helping them up!"

God Bless,
