If something in your life is causing anxiety, let it go.

Face-to-face quality time beats texting any day.

Embrace who you are, not what the world wants you to be.

Take time to listen to the rustling wind and singing birds.

If you want to check something off of your bucket list, than don’t wait. This year my “new thing” was flying by myself to see my grandparents for twelve days.

All good things come from church camp.

Wherever you are, be all there. I am in the process of learning this concept.

Pray that Jesus will bring new people into your life. I’ve prayed this for the past two years and each year He has brought new students that have become some of my closest soul sisters.

God is bigger than you. This should be comforting, so embrace it.

God brings good things out of anything and everything, even in the darkest of times.

Find a passion and pursue it. For me personally, I pursued music more than ever this year.

You can’t do anything for Jesus if you haven’t been with Jesus first.

I starting reading every night this year and it has been the best thing since sliced bread.

Sometimes you learn a lot from putting on your big girl pants and attending a big girl event. This year, I went to the Sisters First tour with Jenna and Barbara Bush and it blessed my soul.

Jesus wants us to live freely and abundantly, so do things that make your soul sing.

The Holy Spirit uses our restless soul to draw us nearer to Him.

Jesus never wants our performance, He simply wants us.

Don’t judge people on what they believe; unite in what brings you together.

God uses the world around us to show intricate glimpses of His glory.

You don’t have to fear what the future holds because God has designed it in a way that’s special for you.

Here’s to 2018.
