Trust in the Lord is the essence of a Proverbs 31 woman. When our trust in the Lord is disrupted, everything else around us crumbles. We crumble, because God is the source of wisdom. He is the source of self-trust. In this installment of Project 31, we will reflect on three key topics: the trustworthiness of God, rebuilding our trust in the Lord, and learning to trust ourselves by learning to trust the God within us.

In this first installment of Project 31, we will combat the lies of the enemy and reclaim what it means to be a woman of God by remembering our innate, God-given identity and worth. This devotional study is for women of any age in any season. Proverbs 31 is not a badge earned by a marriage certificate. It is a portrait of what a woman looks like when she is living from her God-given identity and essence, which is love.

I am so excited to announce this new project. After deciding to take a hiatus from writing fiction, there were two specific projects that I feel God placed on my heart. The first, Wilderness: The Place Between Bondage and Promise, I've been working on quietly behind-the-scenes. This is a full-length Christian non-fiction book I want to keep close to my heart until it is finished. The second, is Project 31: A Year of Becoming A Proverbs 31 Woman . This project originated as a

March 9th, 2025: The sentiment that keeps echoing through my mind is, "It's already done. You're just walking into it." I wrote in my journal that God had already made a place for me and a way for me. There was nothing for me to fear. All I had to do was answer the calling, and respond to the nudge in my soul. My thirtieth year has been a year of doing just that: answering the call, choosing good things over fear, and becoming my Father's daughter.

The enemy has many tactics with one goal--to separate us from God. Our wounds, traumas, perspectives, and desires can all be exploited to do just that. "Good girl" syndrome may leave you feeling like you're never good enough. The enemy wants us focused on trying to be good enough so we don't realize Christ already said we are. We are good enough to love, good enough to die for, good enough to be His, good enough to speak His truth. Grace is ours even when we struggle to accep

Throughout the Israelites journey, the character of God is revealed and the impatience, disobedience, and fearfulness of man that makes us crave slavery to sin rather than trusting in the Lord's provision. We see ourselves in the Israelites, and while we may think they're being annoying or ungrateful, when you're faced with your own wilderness season--a season when trusting the Lord is difficult--you will understand the Israelites' struggle and the Lord's love for us even mor

God is the missing piece to every puzzle. God is a father to the fatherless. No matter what your family dynamics are, God is ready, willing, and able to step into the roles that no one else is filling. He is ready to give a love like no other. He is ready to be reliable. He is ready to show up and support you through your most inconvenient emotions and experiences. He is ready to be your father and your mother. He is ready to fill the gaps in your life and be the family you'v

My story of letting God heal my sexual trauma and free me from shame. For so long, I felt like God couldn't meet me in this area not because He didn't have the power, but because it felt like this area was off limits. But God belongs in every room and in every situation. His presence is what drives out darkness. If God isn't in our bedroom, then who else is? Expecting man to heal what the devil broke was never going to work. So, I invited God into the place where shame lived

This past week has been hard. As much as I've engrossed myself in God's Word, embedded His truths in me, and rebuked the lies the devil has poured into me, I could only hold my ground for so long before the hopelessness tried to take root again. But what happened this week is so much bigger than the past seven days, so I'm going to back up to the beginning.

Through this multi-part blog series, The Divine Return, I'm going to address three major areas from my return to God. The first: the lies the devil uses to keep us from seeking God. The second: the difference between religion and relationship with the Lord. The third: how to truly surrender to the Lord and accept the Holy Spirit.
