✨ Ephesians 3:20 ✨

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Took some time off social media to detox and pray through some things for this upcoming season. This has been the year that God is doing a lot of shifting in the atmosphere, but He is the constant and always faithful! ✨ Some recent offline adventures include…Visiting Catalina Island for the first time (it’s absolutely breathtaking), and going zip lining for the first time (a terrifying & exhilarating experience 🤣). On the drive back from Catalina, there was a sweet surprise of a double rainbow & I was reminded of God’s eternal covenant and promises.🙏🏽🥹 Had the chance to see Phantom of the Opera for the first time (a beautiful production with a phenomenal cast!), and I signed up to be on a kickball team for my gym’s 16th anniversary celebration 💪🏽(most of us hadn’t played since 5th grade & were very rusty! lol), but it was a blast. My church had a big outreach called Just 1, and it was incredible. Pastor Phillip Anthony Mitchell preached a message that was straight fire! 🔥 Very annointed. And last but not least, I took a cardio dance class, which always produces joy. 💃🏽 I’m grateful for these moments & equally grateful for moments of stillness; both are priceless. 🙌🏽💜 by @blairdevonte

If you know me, you know I love to celebrate Birthdays! 🎉🎂There’s a couple of reasons: 1. Every day and especially every year that God gives us is truly a gift. ✨ Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. 2. It makes my heart so happy to have some of the people that I do life with all together in one room! 3. I love sugary treat’s and try to exercise self control, but a Birthday celebration is the perfect occasion to indulge in eating cake, ice cream, or both. 😉🤣 This past weekend was a sweet celebration of another year and it was incredibly heartwarming. 🥹 It was a cloudy day, but there was so much light and love in the room! 💕 The fellowship, laughter, discussions, and words of encouragement that each person spoke over me culminated into a beautiful and memorable evening that blessed me to the core. ✨ Life is amazing, challenging at times, and everything in between, and having a community to navigate it with makes all the difference. I’m so grateful! 🙏🏽💜 taken in Solare Ristorante by @blairdevonte

It’s my Birthday and I’m incredibly grateful for another year! 🥹🙌🏽 Each one is truly a blessing .💯 God has been so very faithful throughout my life journey and when I think about all that He has done, the places He has taken me, and what He has brought me through, I am humbled, overwhelmed, and filled with a tremendous amount of gratitude! 🙏🏽 I did this flying dress photo shoot in Santorini, Greece this past April and saved these pics for today. ☺️ It was so much fun and an absolute joy to work with @natasadresses! I think these photos capture the essence of celebrating life, prioritizing peace, and finding joy in the process. ✨💜 Ephesians 3:20 by @blairdevonte

My dad is truly one of a kind! He mirrors the love of Father God so well. ✨ And that’s something I am deeply grateful for and inspired by. I have learned so much from this man! And mostly it’s from watching his life and how he leads by example. I’ve seen him navigate trials and tribulations with unwavering faith and resolve. The love and passion he has for God is evident in all that he says and does, and it has impacted my life tremendously. He is a Deacon, Sunday school teacher, mentor and friend to many and I am so blessed and grateful that I get to call him my dad. 🥹 Happy Father’s Day, dad, and to all the father’s out there— you are so loved, valued, and cherished! 👑💜 by @blairdevonte

It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve been back, but I’ve been reflecting on how incredibly grateful to God I am for the opportunity to go on a Mediterranean cruise and attend a Kristi McLelland conference at the same time! 🙏🏽🙌🏽 It was a vacation, cultural adventure, and Biblical history education all rolled into one. Kristi is an anointed lady who teaches the Bible from a Middle Eastern lens and she taught from the book of Acts and discussed Paul’s journey of preaching the gospel in Ephesus, Turkey and Athens, Greece. It was surreal to actually go to these places! 🤯 Talk about the Bible coming to life. And meeting Kristi and her team was such a blessing. They are all so down to earth! Other locations on the cruise included Santorini and Mykonos in Greece, and Rome and Naples in Italy. Santorini is absolutely breathtaking! I’ve never seen water with such a vivid deep blue color, and the gelato in Mykonos was delectable. 😋 Visiting the Vatican and Sistine Chapel was a visual dream. ✨ The architecture and intricate details of the paintings and statues were just astounding. Last but not least, I’m so grateful to have shared this experience with one of my very best friends, Jamillah, who is truly like a sister to me. 🥹 Good friends are a gift from God, and she is one! We had a wonderful time and connected with so many amazing people. This was my first time going to Europe and hopefully it’s not the last— it was a dream! 💜 #thankyouGod by @blairdevonte

I can only speak for myself, but I don’t think that the human mind can fully comprehend all that Jesus did by dying on the cross. However, I’m so grateful that by His shed Blood there is reconciliation with the Father, forgiveness of sins, freedom from bondage, and an eternal heavenly home. ✨ There is no greater name than Jesus! His love is redemptive, unconditional, and abundant. 💜
Happy Resurrection Day! ✝️🙌🏽🔥

This past Friday I graduated from a 10 month long ministry program through my church called the Pastoral Support Team (PST)— all glory to God! 🎉🙌🏽 The purpose of this program is to equip & train servant leaders who have a heart for ministry through education & mentorship. The PST leadership team did an awesome job of creating an experience that allowed us to glean from the ministers that taught our classes and learn from each other. I have to shout out my amazing mentor, Mrs. Francis! She is currently doing mission work alongside her husband in the Philippines— truly inspiring. ✨ The ceremony was a commissioning of the graduates into ministry and it was such a beautiful celebration! I’m incredibly grateful for this community, and for the love & support I have received! 🙏🏽 It means so much.🥹💜 I never want to stop learning & growing. The journey continues! ✨ Ephesians 3:20 taken in Rock Church by @blairdevonte

I’m still processing my experience in Ethiopia and all that God did! ✨ The team travelled from the U.S. to Addis Ababa (the capital), then we took another flight to Hawasa, and then a bus ride to a city called Dilla, which is where the medical and dental clinics were set up in a spacious church building there. Dilla is a very rural area and many of the people don’t have access to healthcare. Our team partnered with Ethiopian doctors, nurses, pharmacists, dentists, and translators (all AMAZING) for this outreach and together we served over 5,000 people in four and a half clinic days, by God’s grace! 🙌🏽 It was challenging, awesome, overwhelming at times, and thrilling. The people are so beautiful and kind! 👑 I was often greeted with a blessing by my patients before starting a visit. 🥹 After receiving medical or dental care, every patient had the opportunity to go to the ministry tent, and there were multiple testimonies about healings, salvation, and deliverance. 🔥 A surprise moment for me during this outreach was an invitation by one of the surgeons to assist with some of the procedures in the operating room. It was incredible and I learned so much! Another God surprise was the opportunity to lead worship during our morning devotional time. 🎶🙌🏽 ☺️ Words really can’t express how grateful I am for all of the prayers, love, and support from my family and friends. 🥲 💜 It means so much!! I’m also grateful for Hand of Hope and Joyce Meyer ministries for organizing this trip and creating such a beautiful & impactful experience. We had a fantastic team! God, I give you all the glory, honor, and praise! ✨ 🙏🏽🙌🏽 Psalm 93:4 Lastly, Ethiopian coffee is unmatched. 😋☕️🇪🇹 taken in East Africa by @blairdevonte

Twas a good day for a solo hike. 🌞 Struggled during the uphill climb 😅, but the beautiful city views & cool breeze at the top of the mountain made it worthwhile. 🙌🏽 San Diego, you are gorg! taken in Cowles Mountain - San Diego by @blairdevonte

I had the honor & privilege of helping to baptize people at my church yesterday! 🥹 🙌🏽 It was such a beautiful & humbling experience to come alongside people publicly declaring their allegiance to Jesus as a new creation in Him. 👑✨ And I heard so many powerful testimonies! It’s never too late for God to transform a life and there’s absolutely nothing His love can’t overcome. 💜 He truly is a wonder! Ephesians 2:4-5 taken in Rock Church by @blairdevonte
