Let's Heal
The struggle is real, yet if we open our hearts, our minds and listen, through God's love we can too heal.

Hope and a Future
I was given a bible the day after being baptized with Jeremiah 29:11 inscribed inside by the gifter. It's a verse I visit often as a reminder during the healing process that there was, is and always will be found a purpose in the pain.

Signs
This poem was written about my friend Rachel who passed away from Stage 4 Colon Cancer three years ago. It is a reminder that though our loved ones may be gone, they never truly leave us.

The Gift
I was told by a close friend a few years back to always write from the heart. I notice when I do this, it's as if the words flow directly from God to my pen & paper. This, I've found, has been one of His greatest gifts to me in being able to help others.

eNuF
Music has always been a go to for me in times of need. NF is one of those artists who has gotten me through many difficult times. I wrote this poem with 31 of his song titles incorporated within it (song titles are in all caps).

Mirror, Mirror
True beauty lies not in the eye of the beholder, but in that of our Creator.

The battle between living in this world and living for His world.
