A little romance talk ;)

Hello friends! I saw this picture on facebook today and really wanted to share it with everyone :)




From what I have seen in my past few years of being around guys more, this is absolutely true! I think if you are a girl saving your heart for the a godly guy, its easy to feel like your unattractive or undesirable because a majority of them are too lazy to "climb the tree" to get to you. I am by NO means a relationship expert or anything, but almost all the girls I know my age are dating and this can sometimes make me feel like a loner. But, that is no reason for us to settle for someone that is not worthy of us! 

I truly believe there are guys out there willing to climb the tree for us, we just have to guard our hearts wait patiently. :)

A Fantasy for your Nostrils...

I recently ran out of this heavenly scent called "Fantasy" by...*cringe*...Britney Spears. I know she isn't the best role model or anything, but it smells SO good! 


The website describes it as "a sweet temptation of a fragrance that is tantalizing and magical". Haha. I won't go as far to say that this is "tantalizing", but it does smell like a cupcake! What I like about it is it doesn't make me smell like those $1 cotton candy body sprays at the checkout counter at Walmart, but it's very sweet and vanilla-y in more of a  non-cheap smelling way. (Quite the description, huh?!)


So my lovely female friends, if you ever get the chance to smell Fantasy, do it! Then we can all walk around smelling like non-cheap Britney Spears cupcakes :D Have a fabulous day! 


P.S-don't you love the bottle?! It totally matches my blog!

Tonight's dessert......


I must say that Betty Crocker is quite the lady. I mean, who would have though to cross over a cookie and a brownie?

No, these are not the exact ones that I am making (mine are in the oven as of now), but I would be happy if they turn out to look half as good as these baby's!

Have a great night, and cheers to eating dessert first! :)

When everything else becomes a loss.....

"What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ." Philippians 3:8 




This is my all time favorite verse of the whole entire Bible. And no, even though it is a beautiful verse, I don't just love it because it sounds nice. I love it because it's true


I am still young in my relationship with Christ. I am still prideful, selfish and vain, but I fully believe that when you put your eyes on the Almighty God, everything else in the world seems so small. So useless. Everything else is like garbage. 


If you have ever truly encountered God before, you probably know this. You know that when you see everything else compared to Him, it almost makes you feel like a complete idiot. But yet we still get caught up in sin because of the enemies relentless quest to capture out hearts, souls and minds. 


Its important to realize that no matter what, we will always sin while on earth, but that shouldn't stop us from pursing our King. I am constantly striving to discover this breathtaking relationship between God and man. And even though I will never understand it completely, my prayer is that Jesus Christ would turn my eyes and your eyes onto Him: the Unchanging Rock, the Prince of Peace, the Almighty God who's love is larger than life. 

Riding boots....?



I am typically not a  super "trendy" person, I pretty much wear what I like and don't wear what's ugly; not to mention many trends can be a little "edgy" for my taste. But one trend I have fallen in LOVE with is 
Riding boots!

They are super stylish but give off a really relaxed, western-styled look. Boots have been on the fashion scene for quite a while now, but I really love this fresh take on the trend. 

The one's in the picture above are the Steve Madden "Candence" style boots, one of the cutest styles I have seen yet.

I don't have a pair of riding boots as of now, but if the wallet allows it, I would love to get a pair soon. :)

Enjoy this beautiful fall day!


An Explanation

So....

I started a blog! This is something I have been wanting to do for a pretty long time now and I am super excited to finally have it up.

Basically what this will be is my life in a nutshell....things that I love, books I'm reading, stuff that inspires me, things that God is revealing to me, and anything else that just so happens to end up on here :)

With all that said, I hope you guys enjoy and and be sure to check back for more!
