  • When I started to question things, the world turned against me.

I was ridiculed. Pediatricians bullied me when I refused the next round of V my baby was supposed to get. I was told I was intentionally harming my baby, that my age made me gullible (was 20) and that I was basically an idiot to believe what I read. I was terrified but I stood my ground.

I’ve been harassed and treated like shit on the bottom of a shoe because I stood up and asked questions when it came to the health of my family, all while shaking in my own boots.

I have lost friends because I’ve tried to share information with them about what is actually in our food, how corrupt the food system is, how disconnected we are from our food and how that is playing a huge role in what we’re seeing manifest in today’s world. People looked at me like I had a third eye because I didn’t conform. I was made fun of because of our new choices as a family.

Friend. Mama. If you are in these shoes please know you’re not crazy. 

You are not an idiot. You are not intentionally harming your child. You are not weird. You are not any of the things the establishment tries to push on you for questioning what they have to say about the health of YOUR children.

The veil has been lifted from your eyes & you truly see what’s happening. You no longer believe the lie that “ignorance is bliss.”

Ignorance is NOT bliss when it comes to protecting the health of your children.

Because guess what? No one loves your children like you do. No one knows your children like you do. No one has to deal with the consequences of choices you allow to be made like you do.

Once you are awake, you can never go back to sleep.

The biggest threat to the intricately corrupt establishment is a mom who isn’t blinded by the bullshit; who questions the societal norm; who stands up for truth; who won’t accept the id idea that her children have to be chronically sick and become a sicker, emotionally unstable adult that is dependent on the very establishment that is intentionally causing these problems.

You are that force; that voice; that movement.

The world may feel against you for your choices but just know I stand with you, always. 👊🏼
  • We have eggs out the wazooooooo right now so this delicious quiche is on the menu plan.

Have you ever made quiche before? It’s soooo easy and can be eaten for breakfast or dinner. 😍
  • What a weird time to be a new Christian.

In a time where “unity” and “togetherness” and “discrimination against certain races of people” screams so loud in your face, it seems the very principles of the Bible are being skewed, ridiculed, made fun of, and are under direct attack from the world.

Christians are the new group to be pointed at. Christians are the new racists.

If you’re a Christian wanting to set your foundation in the principals of the Bible and not let the worldly views influence your life, you are the center of the attack. You are the odd one out.

You’re viewed as racist. 

You’re viewed as homophobic.

You’re viewed as transphobic. 

You’re viewed as part of the problem.

You’re viewed as discriminatory against anyone different than you because of the way you live your life.

As a seriously new Christian diving into understanding the Bible and what God wants for his people with a thirst and hunger quite unquenchable, I have not found any place that says a Christian should hate someone because they are different.

The reality is, if you’re basing your life principals on the foundation of what God says, the sins of this world are simple that, sin. No matter which way you spin it.

I shouldn’t have to love and accept your sin to love you. And just because I don’t love and accept your sin, doesn’t mean I don’t love you and have mean feelings towards you.

I fully believe everyone should be able to live their life the way they want without imposing things on others.

And listen, this is coming from a person who dated a woman for 9 months. When I look back at the time leading up to that, I was so confused and lost in this world. I didn’t know right from wrong, up from down. Do I regret it? No. It’s who made me who I am today.

I just bring it up to make a point that without a solid foundation on how to build my life, I was under direct manipulation from whatever the world (Satan) told me to do.

I truly feel I have a unique perspective because before Christ came into my life, I was as “worldly” as you could get. I bought into the feminist movement and all of the progressive movements screaming at us in this world. (Cont. in comments)
  • But is it ever good enough? Is happiness the answer?

The things, the success, the money, the house, the car, the farm animals (in my case 🤪), the lifestyle...

...is it enough to feel content and satisfied? To not feel depression creep in? Does the happiness supersede the sadness?

I’m learning it’s most certainly not and happiness does not supersede sadness.

I have been tying my self worth to my achievements, my successes, my determination, the money I make.

But what happens when it’s a slow season and the achievements aren’t there? The money isn’t being made as much? The failures overrun the successes? Life is overwhelmed by the upkeep of the bigger house, all the animals?

Then what?

How do I feel in those moments?

The happiness of those things are fleeting. They come as fast as the new shiny thing becomes old and dull.

Happiness is a worldly thing made up to find the next best thing; constantly chasing and assuming we will find happiness when we get or reach XYZ. It sets us up for discontentment. I have certainly been in this trap.

Why?

Happiness doesn’t sustain. It never will. It may for a minute or a week or a month but it will soon fade and you will need to find something else to be happy about.

You know what does?

Joy.

Joy is the true contentment. Joy is the true peace. Whole body, spirit, mind joy only comes from Jesus. It only comes from living out your true purpose through Jesus. It comes when you are in the now and find the joy in the every day things you do. It comes from knowing your achievements or lack of do not make you any more or less loved.

You are already loved by the person who created you. You don’t have to be anything sparkly.

I’ve found myself in a slight depression and I have been focusing not on the outward things but of seeking Jesus and finding joy within Him and His promises. Instead of chasing happiness, I’m shifting what my perspective of success means which doesn’t tie to worldly material things... but ties to heavenly things.

If you’re struggling with this, I encourage you to shift your perspective on what happiness and joy means, and how you can seek more joy.
  • I did a thing today.

Knowing God and seeking Him with all my heart this past year and a half has absolutely changed my life and my family’s life.

Every blessing we have, it’s because of Him.

Every future blessing we will have, is because of Him.

Even through the many dark days I’ve experienced emotionally over the past year, there was always a little bit of light because of God’s promises to me. Sure the earthly world may be taking my freedoms but it will NEVER be able to take the most important freedom I have — eternal life! 

For the first time in my life I have Hope to lean on that doesn’t come from this world. I don’t have to earn His love. I don’t have to earn His acceptance. He loves me for me and shows me abundant grace. I honestly don’t know how I would have made it through this past year without my relationship with Jesus.

I am so deeply grateful that my children won’t grow up not knowing who God is and how special the relationship is with Him. I pray them seeing me outwardly accepting Jesus sets a foundation for them that will encourage them to seek Him with all their hearts.

A cute conversation with Layla —

“Mommy why did you go under the water.”

Me: “To be made new.”

Layla: “your face looks old, not new.” 😂
