POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I don’t even know where to begin… but I know I have to share this.

My life could’ve looked completely different right now.

Many of you know July 18, 2025 I was in a car accident that I shouldn’t have walked away from. The kind of accident that changes everything… the kind where people don’t usually get a second chance.

But I did.

And today, sitting in church, hearing my story shared with thousands of people… I couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed with one truth:

God is REAL.

I am here because of Him.
I am breathing because of Him.
I have another chance at life because of Him.

There is no other explanation.

I don’t share this for attention… I share this because someone out there needs to hear it. Maybe you’re going through something hard. Maybe you’re questioning everything. Maybe you feel like you’ve been overlooked or forgotten.

You haven’t.

God sees you. He is working, even when you don’t understand it.

If my story can remind even ONE person of that… it’s worth sharing.

So if this touched you at all, will you help me spread it? Someone else might need this reminder today more than we know 🫶🏻

On July 18th every parents worst nightmare happened to my oldest daughter. Her life will forever be changed but she is alive. She has been sleeping for almost 3 days now and has about 10-12 more days in the ICU or until they finish all of her surgeries.

I miss her smile. When she wakes up she is going to realize how many people love her but keep the prayers coming friends.

I just miss her bubbly smile😭

Long road ahead and our lives are never going to be the same. Having her over an hour away from our home has been tough as we can’t stay at our house we just want to be with her. We have pets so have to have someone come check on them. Keep praying for our family as we navigate this long journey to heal my daughter.

I have a go Fund me in my BIO for her if you would like to donate. We love you all! taken in Destin, Florida by @850_layla
