When most people think of Valentine’s Day, they think of holding hands with their somebody or avoiding the public due to the fact they don’t have a somebody. However, the greatest love story I’ve ever known is the relationship between God and man. A great thing happened to me when I was single, living in Hawaii, and “oh-so-not” looking for romance. I experienced the love of God and of friendship which both fill a void that causes many hearts to ache.

The following is a myspace blog post I wrote over three years ago about that very thing, and it is as relevant now as it was on July 7th, 2008. To give you some backstory, I’ll let you in on a little tradition that happens in Hawaii for people of all ages. At Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, there is a VERY massive rock that beach goers take turns climbing and leaping from all day and this was my chance to do the same. It didn’t go quite as planned, but it is a very memorable moment in my walk with God nonetheless. Continue reading “Free Falling” →

My friend Jeffery has been pursuing arts since he can remember, but his passion turned into a ministry the day he created Heroic Art Studios. There has already been so much progress since the company started in October of 2014. Through comic books and animation, he’s found himself among some of the greats of the industry at comic conventions, and has also debuted a preview of the animation he’s been working on. It’s amazing to see someone respond to God’s call, and then witness everything falling into place to turn their dreams into a reality. Continue reading “Promo Tuesday with Heroic Art Studios” →

Speechless

This article was originally written in July of 2009 on my personal blog. Thank you for reading!

Recently, a few people have commented on how they most appreciate my singing above my other gifts. I’d have to say that falls pretty low on my list of favorites. The reason being that it exposes who I am. My voice is ME. I can’t hide behind a camera, layers of makeup, a fictional character, my fears…or silence.

Silence is something I clung to because I feared my words would fall on disinterested ears. “People don’t care what I have to say.” Being a Christian I know these are words the enemy uses to stop me from spreading God’s message. Keeping me from loving others with my advice, encouraging words, humor, and music. Continue reading “Speechless” →

I’ve known the founder of MLove Life for years, and she’s always had an uncanny ability to share the details of a holistic lifestyle in a very simplistic way. Changing the way you think about your diet can be very overwhelming, but over the years I’ve been able to feel and see the positive effects it has had on my life. One of the ways she shares her life is through the ministry of nutrition and sharing how we can treat our bodies like the temples they are. Along with health, Melissa shares her journey of motherhood, putting together a beautiful home, fashion, and a sneak peak into her fabulous scripture-based cook book in the making.

Fashion Friday: Braids

Beauty is all around us and our Creator has given us so much inspiration to work with. We all know that true beauty comes from the inside, but on Fashion Fridays we discover the latest fashion and beauty trends that help us to feel beautiful on the outside.

It’s amazing how a braid is appropriate for any and all occasions and can be used on any hair type. From sleeping in braids at night so your hair doesn’t get tangled, to walking down the aisle on your wedding day. We love these looks, and hope you’re inspired to try some of them soon.  Continue reading “Fashion Friday: Braids” →

Through the Darkest Valley

This article was originally written in November of 2013 for Our Witness, a website that highlights personal testimonies of Christians all over the world. Thank you for reading!

The day after I lost my baby was the only day I literally wanted to die. I’ve met other women who suffered a miscarriage before, but they still seemed “normal”, so I didn’t think much of the impact it has on women until it happened to me.

They said it was “hard” and “one of the most difficult events they’ve ever been through”, but I couldn’t imagine the attachment they had to their unborn child no matter how brief or how long their baby was wrapped in its mother’s womb.

We weren’t trying to get pregnant, but it was something I could hardly wait for. I always joked that I’ve been wanting a baby since I was a baby, so since I’ve been married I’ve had multiple talks with my husband asking why we couldn’t have a baby…NOW.  My period came like clockwork and so did the symptoms, however the day before I was supposed to start my cycle, me and my husband were watching our favorite shows and I had this overwhelming and exciting urge to yell “I’m pregnant!”

Well, for obviously reasons, I didn’t. Continue reading “Through the Darkest Valley” →

I attended a few events at the Oh, Hello Friend shop before meeting its owner Danni for the first time. Once I laid eyes on her humble and beaming smile, I couldn’t help but hug her as if we had known each other since childhood. Her store has a feeling of home as she welcomes you in with messages of “You are loved” on display throughout the space. In the short time since her brand was founded, God has move her into directions she never dreamed, and is constantly expanding her vision for it. I can’t even imagine where her business is headed, but I’m glad to be along for the ride. Continue reading “Promo Tuesday with Oh, Hello Friend” →
