Holy is the Lord revealed before my eyes And my burdened heart can scarcely take it in.. As I behold your beauty with unworthy eyes, The only song my soul can find to sing Is Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, my King.. 🌅 #beautyseenwith #unworthyeyes (at Ventura Beach California)

I've just released an article titled, "The Truth About My Depression" on www.girlandtheword.com (full link in my bio). I wrote it a few weeks ago but I've been very hesitant about posting it, mostly because I fear what people would say or think.. This is my most vulnerable and open piece of writing so far, so I truly hope that it would be of encouragement, comfort, and help to those who give it a chance. Depression is a hugely stigmatized issue, although SO many of us have it. Rather than hiding it, let's help each other battle it together shamelessly. ☺️ #newpost #girlandtheword #depression

In light of every single tragedy that's happening around the world, the best response is to just keep being the light that we so wish to see. I am beyond privileged and SO PROUD to witness the Hollywood campus being the light to children in need. Every week, I make my way to different events and organizations to get children sponsored so they can go to school-- and every week, without fail, I'm amazed by the utter GENEROSITY shown by the younger generation. Let's make a difference together! Sponsor a child today ❤️ www.worldharvest.cc/sac @worldharvestusa #sponsorachild #worldharvest

It feels wrong to go about my day without acknowledging the devastating attack that happened today in France. I wrote a tribute to the city and a few words of encouragements to the prayer warriors who are lifting this city up tonight on www.girlandtheword.com Let's pray for endurance together. #prayforparis 🇫🇷

Whoa! Guess what just got delivered to my house! ☺️🎉 I still remember the bewildering night of my high school graduation, when I sat on that football field half jealous of the A Capella kids that got to sing because their grades were high enough and mine were barely past the minimum to graduate, and half baffled that I was actually graduating despite my depression and poor performance. 5 years and a couple of huge doses of Grace later, I'm still baffled as to how I graduated from Berkeley and landed in this Pasadena apartment. But God is good, and He is here, so I'm sure it'll be one heck of an adventure. I'm all in! #greatlife #lovedoes

How could I resist a good 'ol Vietnamese picnic with my mama (completed with Darth Vader visors)? 😂☺️ I'm feeling so blessed and thankful this Veteran's Day, in more ways than one. #happyvetsday #vietpicnic (at Los Angeles County Arboretum & Botanic Garden)

Another hard week is over, and so comes another debriefing date with my other half. This week was so full of ups and downs I nearly puked twice, metaphorically. 😝 I am just so thankful to be alive and well and to be surrounded by loving people. That's where God is found: in His people. ❤️

The perks of teaching punctuation: you get to make up some cute and ridiculous sentences! "The diaper, which was worn by my grandpa, was quite stinky." 😂😂 #happysaturday #commas #saturdayschool iwrotegrampainstead #becausecuter
