IAMFORGIVEN – What does it mean?

IAMFORGIVEN – What does it mean? What does that even mean? What am I forgiven of… and who forgave me? I was hoping you would ask. In 2009, I started IAMFORGIVEN because the fact that I am forgiven has been a complete game-changer for me. Forgiveness has literally saved and changed my life. And if…

I AM FORGIVEN

I AM FORGIVEN. I have had countless people ask me what that means and where it comes from. They ask, Forgiven? What did you do? Or ask what I have been forgiven from? When I started Forgiven Photography, I wanted to do something that had more meaning than just taking pictures for people. I wanted…

Marriage and Ministry – Double or Cut in Half?

About a year ago I was talking with a friend who came from the states and had been a missionary for many years. We got to talking about relationships and he gave me some really good advice that hit me. He said “The person you choose to marry will either Double your life and ministry…

A girl name ENTITLED!

I ran into a girl named Entitled yesterday. She had a very interesting story. From a young age she had been born into a family that gave her everything that she wanted. “No” was not in her vocabulary because the parents felt that if they said “no”, it would take away her happiness. As she…

I will miss you!

He had lived a life of struggles and pain, some self afflicted and some were out of his control. Two years ago I was looking for a place to live and God brought me to this house where I met this guy named David. He was an older gentleman but super nice and I felt…

Nowadays, it seems like everybody lives life with this sense of entitlement. As if the world owes us everything and we deserve things just to be given to us. I question why? Why do people think just because they want it, or just because they are born, others should give up what they have for…

Are you a Victim or Victor?

I don’t know if you have ever experienced the messiness of life, but it can be tough sometimes to want to continue to keep moving forward. I want to ask you, what do you do when you face trials? When you lose your job? When your boyfriend or girlfriend leaves you? When you feel like…

You Are Worth It!

Living in the shadows of somebody who never sees you as being good enough really can take a toll on how you live your life. It can be manageable at first but then it gets harder to put up with. Before you know it, you are down, emotionally drained and want to give up on…
