Goodbye 2025, and Hello 2026!

Hello! It has been a long while but I’m hoping that in this next year I will write more because I love doing it and I love sharing about my faith and what God is continuously teaching me! To start, I can’t believe 2025 is officially over! This past year has been crazy. I’m notContinue reading “Goodbye 2025, and Hello 2026!”

You Have a Purpose

I recently began an internship at a nonprofit ministry organization. I work in the pregnancy center, where I interact with many clients who need resources like clothes, diapers, and food for their kids. And let me tell you, when I was first told that I would be helping these people, I was nervous and feltContinue reading “You Have a Purpose”

God’s Saving Grace

This post will be more helpful for a new believer but if you’re a strong believer, I hope this post is a good reminder and an encouragement for your walk with the Lord! When asking God what He wanted me to share, the topic of His grace kept coming to my mind. Not only HisContinue reading “God’s Saving Grace”

Learning to Trust God

I struggle with trusting God sometimes, as I’m sure many of us do. In fact, right now, I’m struggling to trust that He will provide me with community and that He will protect me while I’m abroad in England. I will frequently go to God with a request and I will continue to pray thisContinue reading “Learning to Trust God”

Having a Heart of Gratitude

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.” Psalm 100:4 God wants to hear from us, He desires a sincere relationship with us. But we rarely talk with Him. Yes, He wants us to present our requests to Him (Phil. 4:6) and to cast our anxieties onContinue reading “Having a Heart of Gratitude”

Our mind is a powerful tool that can control us if we don’t first control it and what we fill it with. Take a second and honestly answer these questions: What do you find yourself focusing on or worrying about? What do you find yourself thinking about the most? Personally, by having more time thisContinue reading “Taking Every Thought Captive”

Seeking God with Your Whole Heart

For a while, I had been feeling a drought in my relationship with God. It was difficult for me to believe that He truly is a loving God. By not being in the word, I had not only experienced a toll on my mental health, but I had also experienced daily exhaustion, a lack ofContinue reading “Seeking God with Your Whole Heart”

The Power of Prayer

Recently, I ended a year and a half relationship. I felt I was too weak to handle the amount of pain that I knew would inevitably come if I broke up with him, but God gave me the courage and strength I needed to do it. Obviously, I feel sad but I am at peace,Continue reading “The Power of Prayer”

Why Closed Doors?

Have you ever felt blindsided from a breakup, or crushed when an opportunity you thought you were perfect for goes to someone else? Whatever this closed-door may be, we are typically left without answers, wondering why this particular outcome had to happen. I have felt this pain more in the last year than I haveContinue reading “Why Closed Doors?”

A Little Bit About me and my Testimony

Hi, if you couldn’t already tell, my name is Olivia Butler! I am a college student at the University of Arizona. I was raised in a Christian household with my four other siblings. My mom became a Christian after she married my dad, so most of our Christian influence and values came from her. SheContinue reading “A Little Bit About me and my Testimony”
