I will look back on this season and know that God heard every prayer and asked me to wait, to be patient. He teaches even in silence, even in the words, “Hold on.”

I was an 18 year old walking from class, then hurriedly to my car, all while writing this in my phone drafts. I posted it for the world to see without a second glance or thinking anything of it. I was surprised when I woke up the next morning to hundreds of people commenting & reposting who felt the same way. Sure it was an anomaly, I continued posting thoughts about my faith online. It was not an anomaly. I was not an anomaly. Your thoughts about your faith are not singular either. You never feel as alone as you do before you share. I am sharing with you in this book & in this moment. I am so grateful for you letting me.
