When God gives you a dream, a calling, the doors will open and nothing can stop you. People always ask how do you do it all? The only answer I can give is God’s Grace. Honestly I don’t even know how I get through the days some days. Some days I’m thriving, other days I’m just surviving. But God continues to show up, and everyday anew with strength and purpose. This past year I fully submitted myself to the Lord. I stopped doing things that no longer served the Kingdom of God, and started focusing on serving my family and community.

There is a shift going on in this world. No one wants another cookie cutter influencer trying to tell you need more things, a bigger house, ways to look younger. Because at the end of the day none of that matters. The only thing that matters is the Truth, and that truth lies in Jesus Christ.

So God gave me another purpose. A purpose that put my creative talents and my love for Christ together. This summer, with no prior experience, no qualifications other than God qualifying me at the moment, I created @growengrace . A place where fashion meets truth and purpose. Do you need anything of these things, NO, but if it helps remind you of your identity in Christ, if it helps your children be reminded of who they are then that’s all I can hope for. Because the purpose is never about the clothes or business, the purpose is spreading the Gospel and God’s Grace.

At EnGrace, we also believe in giving back with purpose, that is why we created the EnGrace Foundation. Through the EnGrace Foundation, we support children and families in need by partnering with local organizations that provide real help where it’s needed most. For every order placed, we donate 10% of our net profits to continue this work. It’s through God’s grace that we’re able to spread His word and lift up families in our community. We are truly grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in the name of Jesus Christ. taken in God Bless America by @dawnpdarnell

I’m not just raising my children but the future of God’s kingdom here on earth. Motherhood is a ministry and if you do it right you might be blessed to do it again as grandparents.💛✝️

How many times do I see women stay in relationships or friendships or even circles that are not meant for them. Jesus said, “And if the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it, but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you. And if anyone will not receive you or listen to your words, shake off the dust from your feet when you leave that house or town.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Your peace matters. Go where you are wanted, where you will be heard. Speak the gospel, but if you are not wanted LEAVE, dust you feet, and let God take care of the rest. We aren’t here to save people, that’s Jesus’s job. We are hear to spread the truth to anyone that will listen, but you can’t save someone who doesn’t want to be saved. Pray for them, love them, forgive them, and trust in God’s plan for them. You are not the Savior, JESUS IS. 💛✝️ taken in The Audrey Restaurant by @dawnpdarnell

Today Josh got baptized in the Holy Spirit. So proud of him and his spiritual journey with Jesus. We are thankful to share this experience with our family and Pastor Rudy and Pastor Christine and their Holy Spirit filled church @my.chapel. Watching them build this church from the ground up, change the lives of everyone who’s walked through their door, and to come full circle in seeing Josh get baptized in their church, God has truly blessed us with these disciples of Christ we get to call our friends. Thank you for all yall do to spread the gospel and your work in saving people’s lives.

“There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ’s gift.” - Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭4‬-‭7‬ ‭ESV‬‬ taken in Chapel by @dawnpdarnell

Let everything you do be through HIM so that they may see Jesus in you. 💛✝️ Thankful and blessed that God gave me @growengrace so that through faith by fashion we can continue to spread the gospel and spread the blessings to those in need in our community. For everyone who has supported this ministry of mine, thank you! Your support helps gives back to organizations like these that help celebrate children and make them feel loved as God loves them.💛✝️ #GODisGOOD

Don’t be Lukewarm. We as Christians are called to do more. Spread the Gospel, spread the good news, and be a light in this world. We are the body of a Christ and it’s time we show the world who Jesus is through us.💛✝️ by @dawnpdarnell

Your identity and worth is not tied to your relationships, your career, what others think of you, or what you do or do not have in this world. It’s is through HIM your father. Remember who your Farther is. You are daughter of the King, the creator of all things, and your are his beloved child. He wants only the best for you, and has great plans for you. And if you don’t remember who your Father is know he is always there, waiting for you. Don’t let the worldly things distract you from HIS plans for you and his great LOVE for you. 💛✝️

Honestly with this busy season of our lives I didn’t even think we would have time to take a trip just the two of us. But God came through and Josh booked and planned the best trip, from our catamaran adventure to the island, to spending a romantic day at the spa, and then surprising me with a photoshoot before our sunset dinner on the beach I was just blown away. Sometimes in a marriage you wonder if you sit back and let your husband do everything if he will notice the little things, and he did. This was our first trip I did absolutely nothing. I didn’t even pack till the night before we left and usually I’m the one who’s already packed a week out.😅 It was the best feeling not having to do anything honestly. Sometimes as a mom we just want one of those days where we don’t do anything. But a whole vacation was honestly more than I could ask for. It was everything we needed and more just to recharge just the two of us and be reminded of why we fell in love in the first place.💛 by @dawnpdarnell

Twelve years of marriage and let’s be honest we wouldn’t be here today without God’s grace. Marriage is hard, it isn’t easy, but spending an the rest of my life with my best friend is worth it. Putting God first in our marriage has been our saving grace. For a long time as a wife I tried to control our marriage and it led to a lot of strife. When I finally let go and let God is when things changed. Instead of arguing, I prayed. I prayed for my husband to be a better man and better husband and God answered my prayers. People look at our marriage and see only the good and the blessings, but what people don’t see is all the hard work and prayers sent to get where we are today. Our marriage isn’t strong because it’s perfect. Our marriage is strong because despite the obstacles and struggles we know God’s plans for us, and we are strengthened in his Grace and mercy. 💛✝️

Thankful to be living in the greatest country in the world founded on the faith of in GOD WE TRUST. We would not be here today without a lot of prayers and people who followed God’s purpose. We are a country made of dreamers, doer’s, fighters, innovators, and believers in God’s promise for us. That is what makes America so great. God bless America.🇺🇸✝️

When God is in the center of it all doors will open. Things will fall into place that normally wouldn’t. That’s what it felt like when I took Jayden to NYC for the first time. Jayden experienced his first broadway when we won the lottery and got tickets to Aladdin the Musical. Even though it was supposed to rain, the sun came out during our stay. We were able to stay at my dream hotel with the best views of Central Park. We got to see the Mets play and sit club level at first base. But the best part was seeing Forrest Frank in concert, praising Jesus, and getting to pray with others while spreading the gospel during our stay. Thankful for the blessings upon blessings. God is good!💛✝️ taken in Madison Square Garden by @dawnpdarnell
