About

Hi, my name is Tiffany, I have a passion and heart to reach the youth and young adults through blogs, podcasts and my books. God has given me a heart to serve and to testify of his goodness and faithfulness. I would love to pour into the youth and let them know that they, too, have a voice and a purpose in this life. God wants you to know that you are seen, heard and deeply loved. Created with a purpose for a purpose.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, whoever believes in him will not perish but have everlasting life.”

John 3:16

  • What Do You Have?

    There are many things we can often complain about when it comes to not having enough of something. We can often compare to another what they have and what we don’t have. It can go something like this… “I don’t have the fanciest car like so and so. I wish I had the new gaming system like my friend. My house isn’t as nice as some friends I know who have so much stuff it makes their house look better than mine.” Let me ask you something, do you have a car to drive or any kind of transportation? If the answer is “yes,” then make good with what you have. Do you have a gaming system even if it’s not the trend now? If “yes” make good with what you have. Do you have a house or at least a roof over your head? Don’t complain ecause so and so has something better. She had to work hard for what she has. None know what you have been through and noone ever will. Jesus knows and if we put our faith and trust in him, he can turn the little that we have and make it more.

    “When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick. As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.” Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.” “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered. “Bring them here to me,” he said. And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.

    Matthew 14:13-21

    If Jesus can take the little that they had and multiply it to feed 5,000 men, women and children. How much more will he multiply the little you have if you believe and have faith?

  • Where Are you Looking?

    As deep cries unto deep, so does my soul cry out to you my Lord. When things don’t make sense and words are hard to form, you are the on whom I run to. I long to know you more Lord. Jesus, you hear the cries at night and how my soul is desperate for a touch from heaven. you made it clear to me that what I was looking for, was not what I needed at that time. What I need is something only your spirit can give. Everything inside of me is saying, “you are the Messiah, my refuge, fortify my faith and make me more like you.” I want one thing, but I can live without it, what I cannot live without is you. I see your hand Jesus reching into the water to grab me, as I grab a hold of your hand right now, I lift my eyes to the heavens, my countenance towards you. As you have delivered me from my enemies, I will rest and remain in you. Holy Spirit, fill those empty spaces with more of your love and truth. Sanctify and uplift me into your hands for I want to just be held by you right now.

    Maybe right now, there is someone who is going through a hard season right now and just needs to be held. Needs a hug, or to be told, “everything will be ok, I am standing with you even if noone else does.” I believe we all need eachother, especially in the hard times. We are not called to isolate, we are called to battle and stand by eachother in those hard times and the good. It’s ok to not be ok. But don’t hide from those that just want to help. I want to ask, “where are you looking?” Because our eye gates are very sensitive, as well as our ears. What goes in is what comes out. If we surround ourselves with those who are Christ centered, positive, uplifting, we will be filled up to overflow. We cannot let the hard times or seasons push us back to who we were. Everyday, we need to strive to be more Christ-like. Are you ready to get filled up to overflow?

  • Beauty From Ashes

    What is one word you can say that will describe your life now verses how it was before? For me, I would say “transformative.” I lived my life in rebellion and always looking for the easy way out of things. I knew better, but chose not to do better. The relationships I was drawn to, were toxic, and I was ok with that. I was stuck in the familier and living amongst the ashes that was destroying my identity. I loved the chaos so much that I created more chaos in my life. But God, he found me and sent a helper to come and rescue me and take me under their wing to remind me of my value and worth. Amongst the ashes, there is still beauty, but we need to dig a little deeper and be ok with getting a little messy. When I gave up the rebellious life to live a life following Jesus whole heartedly, everything changed for me. I was reborn and brought bck to my first love, Jesus. But, I had to work hard to get the life I have now. The mess creates a message, the tests create a testimony. What is your testimony? What do you want out of life? How do you see yourself? how does God see you?
