Hello, and welcome to my world. My name is Kaitlyn, and I'm fifteen years old. Simply put, I'm a writer. Words surge through me with every beat of my heart. Writing is like oxygen to me, because without it, I cannot exist. Though I'm only a sophomore in high school and many would say I've still got my whole life before me, I've faced my share of trials. Yet with every issue I've endured, writing has been my outlet, the one tool that allows me to disconnect from the world for a short time and plug in to myself and my relationship with the Lord. Writing has been my constant confidant, a place where I can release a whirlwind of emotions and, at the same time, receive healing and progress into the next stage of life that my Heavenly Father has planned for me. I've created this blog more as a journal for myself, to straighten out my thoughts, document some "crazy exciting" milestones, and express the ups and downs of life. But ultimately, I hope that writing this blog will allow me to become more in-tuned with the thoughts of my Savior, Jesus Christ. With all of that said, I hope that God can somehow use me through this blog to express His unconditional love to someone else. I give Him the glory for all that I am and all that I will be.



"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of POWER, LOVE, and SELF-DISIPLINE. So you must never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord." (2 Timothy 1:7,8 New Century Version)

"God comforts us not to make us comfortable, but to make us comforters." -John Henry Jowett

Poetic Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father


Thank you …
For the crisp, playful breeze
For the rainbow of leaves cascading from the trees
For the smell of warm apple cider and burning leaves
For Your breath-taking Creation

Lord please…
Give me a place in this universe, this place of strife
Guide me through this complicated maze of life
Lead me on toward my purpose, my calling, my destiny
Use my life to bring you honor, praise, and glory
Remind me of who You are & who You have created me to be

My God, You are…
the King of all kings and Lord of all Lords
my Father, my Rock, my Savior
my Comforter, my Fortress, my Teacher
my Way, my Truth, and my Light
You are mine and I am Yours
Until the end of age


Amen
