Today, I felt God present in every moment. I was hyper-aware of my surroundings, who was there, how I was acting… There’s a level of certainty when you have Him in your corner.

But nothing could take away the feeling of the gravel against my finger as I tried to blend two colors. Nothing will override the woman who told me she had three miscarriages as I left the venue that night. I’ll never forget that conversation with that stranger who asked me what my definition of beauty was.

I’ve got an unwavering faith I’ve never had before. A steadfast belief in the Creator of the Universe. Literally nothing else matters. Nothing can stand in the way of God.

it’s really our comfort level that stops us from that potential success. we are more afraid of failure and would rather accept what we have received so far than try and fail.

find a square space. create your own space. consider not even trying to fit into a space.

i was no longer jumping for joy at what used to make me simmer with excitement.

listen as well as you can. trust that God has gone before you and paved the way. you got this!

The little Beth told to stop drawing in class, stop singing around the house, stop dancing in public, stop laughing too loudly in a restaurant.

I feel a calling like no other and I’m honored to walk this crazy, scary, unmarked path. It’s much harder than I imagined??? But at the same time, exciting.

Playing her taught me a lot about a need to fly. A need to go out and see what there is out there and bring it back to share and enjoy with the people you love.

Of course, some of it is uncomfortable. Some of it feels so foreign that I don’t understand how I ended up there. But, I don’t linger on that long. I know that discomfort is meant to be for growth.

It has been an interesting time in my music career. I feel like every new song I write is my new favorite song. I feel like writing and playing music is what I was born to do.

I also love it here in America. I know that’s a very odd opinion to have right now but I think progress is happening. The fight is ongoing and we aren’t backing down.

She is the person I would love to spend time with every day if I could. I hate being across the country from her. If I could, I would buy her a house right now and move her to Atlanta.

In rest, we get to experience ourselves without pressure. Without someone watching (or us watching ourselves). Without a time restraint. Without parameters. We are simply in existence without judgement. This is why rest is so important.

It knew that what I was about to express was real, raw. What I wanted to share was as vulnerable as I could get right now.

All things are created from absolute nothing. The fact that us humans are able to produce original work (however seemingly recycled) is a superpower.

What kind of treatment do you accept? How do you let people talk to you? What’s an acceptable way for people to behave towards you? You get to choose this.

I want so badly to return to my normal.

Stay to myself and keep my things bottled up.

Only express through art.

I want my soul to blaze. I want to light up. I want to shine. You can only do that in certain places. The right place at the right time. You can only get there if you’re willing to listen and go where you’re being called.
