It has been 3 years since I gave my life to Jesus, and it’s been a whirlwind to say the least. To jumpstart my blog writing again, I’m sharing some of my life experiences of walking in the faith thus far in hopes that it may inspire or draw attention to certain things for yourself. This first post is part of a 3-part series called “3 Years Walking with Jesus”. Starting in February 2022, this post touches on my original coming to faith experience out of the “new age” spirituality, coming to realization with myself, dealing with depression and legalism, but also finding community within the faith.

Life Update: Finding Jesus
Sometimes life hits you fast and in ways you’re not expecting. After a couple years of building this website in a direction that had plans of teaching new age-based practices and Law of Attraction principles (among many other aspirations), Jesus had a way in revealing Himself and His truth to me in February 2022. Though I resisted at first because of the worldview I had developed over the last many years, once I accepted Him, I began to be set free. Though it was a beautiful feeling, what has followed has been a ton of confusion, depression, and uncertainty due to many life factors I’ve been working through. So what’s next?
Adrenaline and the Present Moment
Thunderstorms! Adrenaline! Full, present-moment embodiment, say what?! This week I reflect on a personal experience infused with my love for thunderstorms, and how it was a reminder of what it truly feels like to be mentally present and physically grounded. So often we can find our minds wandering off, taking us out of the present and worried about the future or circumstances of the past, which in the end, robs us of being fully engaged with what’s happening in the now.
Navigating Change When the Horizon Isn’t Clear
Change is something that happens for every single one of us. Some things change on their own, but other times, you can feel in your bones that you know you’re capable of great things, but you’re just not sure how to get started. Speaking from my current experiences, and as I’m still navigating change in some big areas of life, I share some excerpts of my personal story and recommend a couple steps you can start taking today to get you moving in any direction other than the one you’re currently moving in right now.
