My Testimony

                                                  (A photo taken on a car ride in Mexico)


So many of you know I went to Mexico,  and so tonight I am going to share with you my testimony of my experience in Mexico.
First I'll give you a brief history of what has happened this year. This year I have to say I have gotten distracted, I've cared more about my appearance and what others think of me instead of what God has to say about me... I have to apologize to all my readers, because I have not been the visionary daughter I set out to be, at the beginning of this blog.
This past year I really have given a good amount of my focus to fashion, and entertainment. I've cared more about keeping up with the times, then keeping up with the person's desires that created time! You see I didn't keep up with certain modesty standards I had for myself and watching more romantic chick flix's than needed.. this past year has been full of distractions, and I fell easily.

In Mexico God brought several things to my attention, one that I had exchanged his great opinion for the praises of others over my vanity. The second was my dress, I noticed on the trip I had began to push some modesty boundaries I had set up for myself. The third, my focus lately has really struggled with relationships and God brought to my attention that I really relied on a future with a significance other, and he asked me "If I wiped the surface clean of everyone, and you only had me for the rest of your life, would you be satisfied with just me?" In all honesty, I regret to say my answer was no, I mean if you really think about it, that is all girls talk about. It's girls main focus to find someone. Anyways, on this trip, God remined me of my first love, and my main purpose... to carry out the first commandment!  To focus on Him, and let everything go... to trust. And I'm just going to be real I have  horrible trusting issue... which I didn't notice until this trip either!
This has been an eye opening trip, and the freedom I got from this trip is amazing. I will share more about the other things that happened later, right now I'm going to go read!

Thank you all that have stuck with me,
In Christ,
Kassidy!

(Also just wanted to thank the Pruett girls that really encouraged me on this trip, you girls have an amazing understanding of Christ and his Spirit. Love you girls!)

  1. I'm really happy for you:) It's amazing how God always draws us back. Keep on writing because wat the Lord has for you speaks more and touches more than anything. It makes a difference.
