Honored & humbled by this opportunity

by Karmen |

“You never get a second chance to make a first impression.”

Right?

None needed for this gal.

When you say, “Courtney Westlake”  I say, “A woman of grace. Exhilarating.”

Courtney and I met at She Speaks last July.  From the moment she and I had our first exchange I knew she was someone I wanted to know more about and a woman I was sure I would never forget.

Courtney’s story and her daughter, Brenna Helen Marie shook my soul.  Brenna was born on December 19, 2011, with a rare and severe skin disease called Harlequin Ichthyosis (har-la-kwin ick-thee-oh-sis).

I am humbled and honored to be guest posting for Courtney’s series Celebrating Beautiful today on her blog, Blessed by Brenna.

Choose joy it’s sound simple enough but up unti Choose joy

it’s sound simple enough but up until the last few days it’s been a real struggle for me

our current season of parenting has had me in a hard place & I’ve allowed the enemy to cause me to tap out of a lot of things but mostly joy

but a few days ago I decided to start believing the things I say and believe for others 

with Jesus we win

He’s it-
 & in Him IT IS FINISHED 

all of it

because 
Jesus.

He overcame & one day we will too!

 in Him we can BE+SAY & do BOLD THINGS because of who He is ❤️ 

have a joyFUL day, friends
ATTENTION DREAMERS: are you ready? have you bee ATTENTION DREAMERS:

are you ready? 

have you been looking for a safe place to whisper your dreams out loud?

so make plans to JOIN ME & some of my bravest friends for the first ever BOLD MOVES retreat ❤️

it’s time ✅
