“That mission trip produced not only a restlessness but an openness to go anywhere, do anything. And in my experience that’s what mission trips do. When you get out of your comfort zone, you hear God’s voice more clearly. It’s often a door that leads to a door. Or maybe I should say, a prompting that leads to a prompting.” - Mark Batterson

It’s true, for some reason when we get away from the distractions of our everyday lives we are better at discerning the voice of God. We feel closer to Him, some how more free.
•
Some have to travel halfway around the world to discover maybe they’re not called to full-time mission work. That’s a good thing, that self-discovery. That’s the cool thing about mission trips, you’re sure to learn something about yourself in the journey. And you’ll probably learn something about God’s faithfulness as well.

Yay! I made it home in time to get a short run in after handling some work and get some of this beautiful sunshine ☀️!!!! Those that know me, know that every time the sun is out I get jealous not to get a piece of it. Just 30 minutes to an hour will do. I try to avoid that good ol’ Gringo sunburn every chance I get.😳😳 The sun was glorious today at 85 degrees in the Houston area with a nice gentle breeze to make sure that it didn’t feel that hot at all. #grateful#getoutside#strengthrunner #♥️ #ketostrong #♥️☀️ #cardio#running#runstrong#lifeisgood#lifeisbeautiful#bodybuilding#bodyshaping#thankful#runstrong
Most of my favorite pieces are thrifted or found on road trips & I love incorporating them in my styling. Here’s a look thrifted from head to toe (minus my fav @seaworthypdx earrings hiding behind my hair).
She insists on wearing her sunglasses upside down and the last few pictures I’ve taken of her she has stuck her tongue out😜. She shakes her booty to any song she can and if she could, she would eat every single piece of gum I buy.
She is the epitome of a 2 year old rebel. 😆✌🏼👊🏼
112/365 | Hace unos días, una amiga compartió un poema hermoso conmigo. Hoy quiero compartirlo con ustedes, mujeres (y hombres) bonit@s 😘💫👽 ✨Qué bonita te ves así, volviendo a ser tan tú. Tan tranquila, tan loca, tan completa, tan viva. Caminas con seguridad sonriendo todo el tiempo. No te vistes como otras, la moda no influye en tus gustos, usas lo que te identifique como única y así vas enamorando al mundo. ✨Qué bonita te ves desde que te rescataste. Tu mirada cambió y la paz te invade a cada instante. ✨Qué hermosa te ves amando a tu manera. Sin etiquetas, sin miedos, simplemente amando a tu manera. Ya casi te pareces a la mejor versión de ti, a esa que se comerá el mundo en su afán de seguir siendo feliz.
✨Qué bonitos tus ojos y tus sonrisas. Qué bonitas tus cicatrices, qué bonitas. Te reconstruiste de una manera hermosa. Tus pedazos, al ser unidos, te convirtieron en la más bella de las rosas. ✨Qué bonita te ves retomando las riendas de tu vida. No cualquiera resurge como tú de entre las cenizas. ✨Qué grande te ves pisoteando todas tus tristezas y complejos. Qué imponente te has vuelto desde que mandaste al carajo a la gente y a tus miedos.
✨Qué grande es una mujer cuando se acuerda de su capacidad para comerse al mundo. Qué grande te ves defendiendo tus ideales.
✨Qué bonita eres desde que te viste al espejo y rompiste tus cadenas, desde que secaste tus lágrimas y eliminaste las tristezas. ✨Qué bonita te ves mujer, ahí por la vida caminando.
✨Qué bonita eres cuando vuelas, luchas y sigues soñando 💕.
