“I am not a good blogger because I hate social m

“I am not a good blogger because I hate social media.” —me, rationalizing why I should probably just give up blogging altogether.
•
But, you know, God didn’t tell me to grow a social media audience. The blogging world did.
•
God also didn’t tell me to make sure I had Instagram worthy photos to post every day. The blogging world pushed that.
•
Don’t get me wrong. I 100% understand why the blogging world says “Grow your social media presence!” I get why there are courses for this very thing.
•
But, I am soooo bad at it. If I’m honest, I really kind of hate social media. No amount of courses or learning how to hack the algorithm will make me love social media.
•
And you know what?
•
God didn’t tell me to do those things. He simply said “Write.”
•
I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t struggled with the social media aspect of it for months. Social media is overwhelming and it can be a source of great frustration.
•
But, I also know God said just to write. And so, I will. Because I know that He will still use my blog to help someone, even if I don’t have a giant following on social media. He can still use my blog even if I’m not posting 6 posts a day, every day on ~all~ the platforms at ~just~ the right time.
•
Don’t let all of the noise get in the way of what God told YOU to do. (Even if it makes no sense to anyone else!)

Goodbye, 2020. Hellooooo 2021. 😍 • Can we all

Goodbye, 2020. Hellooooo 2021. 😍
•
Can we all agree that 2020 has been kind of a dumpster fire?
•
Here’s to being hopeful about 2021 and leaning on faith to make it through.
•
Over on my blog (slowly resurrecting it, y’all. 😂), I’m talking about choosing to frame 2021 on both hope and faith. Head on over there and hear my thoughts on it. #linkinbio

Is it really Monday if you’ve been on the quaran

Is it really Monday if you’ve been on the quarantine clock since March...?
•
Well, since the calendar says it’s Monday, let’s do a #meetmemonday!
•
I’m a spanish teacher and I’m currently STRESSING over what school will look like next year. 🤯
•
I think mini M&Ms are THE best kind of M&M.
•
I may or may not separate my mini M&Ms by color before eating. 🤷🏻‍♀️
•
Anyone else do that? Or is that just me...? #learningtobethelight #shinebright

You know what I like? A good thunderstorm. 😍
•
You know what I don’t like? A storm that hits you in life and leaves you feeling hopeless. 😐
•
Actually, come to think of it... I don’t actually know anyone that likes that kind of thing...? 🤔
•
There’s only one way through those kinds of trials and it’s called clinging to Jesus. And guess what? There’s a new post on the blog today all about what to do when you find yourself in a storm.
•
If you’re currently facing something hard, I encourage you to go check it out! #linkinbio

“Man, sure can’t wait until it’s winter time

“Man, sure can’t wait until it’s winter time so I can stop feeling guilty for taking naps on warm, sunny days”— Me, the nap queen. 😴
•
Look at me wishing for a different season already. 😂 Life is kind of the same way, though, right? The Lord puts us in a certain season and we’re done and over it before the Lord says it’s time for a change.
•
Anyone else? Or just me? 🤷🏻‍♀️
•
There’s a new post on the blog about this very thing. Go check it out. 😘 #Linkinbio #learningtobethelight

Guess what, everyone?!! It’s time for a #FridayIntroduction because it’s been 84 years since I’ve posted here or on my blog (spoiler: there’s a new post up. #LinkinBio)
•
Five facts coming at you!
1. I really like (and I mean, REALLY LIKE) mini m&ms. I may or may not be working on a family size bag right now.
2. I recently learned I can still hula hoop like a pro. 💪🏼
3. Mexican food is the best food.
4. I teach Spanish and I’m excited about the new school year, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t anxious.
5. I quit blogging for a bit. And I wish I didn’t, but it happened. There will likely be a post on that later. 😬
•
Did I mention there’s a new post up? Oh, I did? Well, what are you waiting for? Head on over to the blog and read what I learned from Cain. Mercy, y’all. It’s amazing. 😭
