About Me

I’m Tonya – a daughter of the One True King and I am honored that you are here. God has placed a desire in my heart to share with others the awesomeness of who HE is and HIS unconditional love!

I share my writings with you because…

God has commanded me to share the unconditional love, grace, mercy and Gospel of Jesus Christ.(Matthew 28:19-20)
God has called me to encourage, exhort and disciple others. (1 Thes 5:24)
God has placed a desire in my heart to help others learn how to dig deep into God’s Word so we can be rooted in Christ and not swayed by the world! (Ephesians. 3:17)

More than anything I want to be used by my God for His Kingdom, to do something significant, and to make the time He graciously gives me to count for His glory – in the everyday ordinary moments, in the God ordained extraordinary moments and every moment in between!

I am also a wife, momma, Gigi, daughter, sister, friend, aunt, women;s ministry leader and longtime educator. I love to study God’s Word, paper craft, Bible art journaling and read. My faith spills over into all areas of my life and so will this blog!
