We must not make God’s Word mean what we wish. We must not bend it, but allow it to bend us, and give it the honor of being better than we can make it.

Don’t just read the Bible. The devil knows the Bible by heart. He used it against Jesus. Rather, linger in God’s word, love the truth, and plead with him to open the eyes of your heart.

My feelings are not God. God is God. My feelings do not define truth. God’s Word defines truth.

“When someone says, ‘I haven’t felt God in a long time. I feel like He is gone. He left me.’ I would just tell them, ‘He said He would never leave you nor forsake you. He is as close as the mention of His name. Just believe that. You don’t need to feel Him to know He is with you. Just believe Him. Don’t make God a feeling. He is not a feeling. He’s Spirit and Truth, and He lives in you.’”

Alicia BACK to Haiti

Alicia BACK to Haiti

Hello everyone! It’s been a WHILE since I’ve written on here! It feels so surreal to peruse through my old blog posts from a year ago at this time. So many things have changed; my place of residence (living in good old Merrimac, Massachusetts!), my job (back to my preschool teaching life…as if I could have stayed away…while volunteering with the WNCC youth group), my relationship status (I’m a…

Quick Update/Video Recap

Hi everyone! I am planning on writing a better update in the next few days, but there are just a few things I wanted to shoot out there quick. First, my new Stateside number is: 9782284524 -Please get in touch with me if you’d like to meet up! Second, I mentioned in the last blog that I’d be creating a ‘video recap’ of sorts, using things I recorded while I was in Haiti. I’ve since finished it,…

Ayiti Cherie

Sitting in the Port-au-Prince airport, waiting for my flight to the States, I’m in a bit of a fog. It’s hard for me to comprehend that this part of my story is over, and another one is about to begin. The past few weeks have truly been a blur. From school ending to time spent with other missionaries who have become family to soaking in every last bit of Haiti that I possibly can, I feel as though…
