My goal is make Christian content that encourages you (and me) to put life through a God filter to come out wiser, more obedient, and holier.

Let God Cook: Trusting His Timing When Your Life Feels Stuck
I used to think that the gifts God gave me meant I could control everything-but I was so wrong!
Over the past 5 years, I’ve learned to let God take the lead, especially during big life transitions (like becoming a mom of 3!). I prayed for bold, dangerous things, but often felt like God wasn’t moving at all.
Here’s what I’ve discovered: God’s stillness doesn’t mean He’s not working. Trusting His timing is hard, but right now in 2024, I’m living in the prayers I prayed back in 2018!
If you’ve ever felt frustrated waiting on God’s plan, let’s learn to trust together. 🙌

Is Daily Bible Reading Legalistic? Here’s What You Need to Know
Переглядів 322 місяці тому
“Telling people to read the Bible every day is legalistic.” I was shocked when I heard this and couldn’t believe this was how someone really viewed God’s word. In this video, I dive deep into what legalism really means and why daily Bible reading is far from it. 🚫📖 Growing up in a legalistic church culture, I understand the confusion around rules and faith. But here’s the truth: spiritual disci...

In this video, I share the most terrifying prayer I’ve ever prayed. What I like to call a “dangerous prayer”. I dive into what makes a prayer dangerous and how it can lead to spiritual growing pains, while bringing us closer to God. I also reflect on how my prayers have shifted over the years, moving from self-centered requests to a deeper, more intimate connection with God. If you’re curious a...

I learned to brag about this (How to Rely on God)
Переглядів 256 місяців тому
I don’t know about you, but I’m not one to draw attention to my weaknesses. I am DEFINITELY not the one who wants to openly and freely talk about it with anyone either. Little did I know, that bragging on my weakness, would be how learned to rely on God. The Bible talks about boasting in our weakness so that God’s strength gives us power and that is something that I have come to see more clearl...

How did you tie the sheet to the trees? 👀
I used some heavy duty spring clamps. They’re fairly inexpensive on Amazon and they come in handy for other things around the house or other photography projects!

Hi! How did you operate your phone from your ipad? Would love to do this too!
There is an app that links my camera and my phone, but you could also do this on your phone and an iPad/ tablet with an app called Apower Mirror
@@ari.raines awesome, thank you
Where you get the curtains from??
These are actually bed sheets! I bought them from target! One is a king size flat sheet and the other is a queen.
This is a genius idea
I’m glad you think so! It definitely was a fun challenge 🥳
What app did you use to edit? You look really good.
I used Lightroom to edit the photos and InShot to put this short together!!
They came out really cute! Also you’re doing a great job mama, kids are no joke 😭
absolutely NO joke!! LOL Thank you!
Aww these are cute mama❤️I only have a few more weeks and never took a my with my first pregnancy now I wanna do this, I’ve been so sick and now I’m better so it’s my last chance to do this🙏🏾
Aww I know how you feel! I had the same experience with my first two. I hope delivery went well and you got the chance to take those pics!🎉
@@ari.raines hi yes, I took a lot of photos and I’m so grateful to come across this video. With the little energy I had left being 9months at the time lol it was an easy enough set up for me ❤️
