“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.” Psalm 91:1 🤍

God,

Today, I’m simply coming to You.

You know every corner of my heart, even the things I can’t find the words to say.

Your word reminds me over and over again, “Do not be afraid.” So today, I’m choosing to believe You, even when I don’t understand what You’re doing.

I’m on my knees, crying out to You in prayer.
Please don’t let go of my hand.
Fill me with Your peace, strengthen my faith, and help me trust You one step at a time.

I know You are with me.

Amen 🤍

“El que habita al abrigo del Altísimo descansará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.” — Salmo 91:1 🤍

Dios,

Hoy simplemente vengo a Ti.

Tú conoces cada rincón de mi corazón, incluso aquello que no encuentro las palabras para expresar.

Tu Palabra me recuerda una y otra vez: “No temas.”
Así que hoy decido creerte, incluso cuando no entiendo lo que estás haciendo.

Estoy de rodillas, clamando a Ti en oración.
Por favor, no sueltes mi mano.
Llena mi corazón de Tu paz, fortalece mi fe y ayúdame a confiar en Ti, un día a la vez, un paso a la vez.

Sé que Tú estás conmigo.

Amen 🤍

Excuses in advance for my English I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU in behalf of Venezuelans 🙏🏻🇻🇪💔

Estar lejos de Venezuela no hace que la amemos menos. Al contrario, nos hace darnos cuenta de que una parte muy grande de nuestro corazón sigue allá.

Es el país donde nacimos, donde crecimos, donde están nuestros recuerdos, nuestras raíces y tantas personas que amamos. Ver todo lo que está pasando desde la distancia duele muchísimo, porque lo único que uno quisiera es poder hacer más.

Por eso esta jornada de donaciones significa tanto para nosotros. Es una forma de recordarnos que, aunque estemos lejos, seguimos estando presentes para nuestra gente. Cada caja, cada bolsa, cada aporte representa a una persona que decidió ayudar y no quedarse indiferente.

Pero si algo nos ha conmovido profundamente, ha sido ver la solidaridad de tantas personas. No solo de venezolanos, sino también de gente de otros países, incluso de personas que nunca han pisado Venezuela. Simplemente vieron el sufrimiento de un pueblo y decidieron tender una mano.

La solidaridad no tiene nacionalidad. No entiende de fronteras. Solo necesita un corazón dispuesto a ayudar.

A cada persona que donó, que compartió esta iniciativa, que puso un granito de arena o dedicó parte de su tiempo para hacerlo posible: gracias. De verdad, gracias. Ustedes están llevando esperanza a personas que hoy la necesitan más que nunca.

Porque al final, eso es lo que nos hace humanos. Y mientras podamos hacer algo por nuestro país y por nuestra gente, lo vamos a seguir haciendo

Por favor sigan donando VENEZUELA NOS NECESITARA POR UN BUEN RATO …
VENEZUELA TE AMAMOS ❤️

Keep donating pls 🙏🏻

Just a small reminder to myself:

YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPIEST WOMEN ❤️

Get excited about small things:
Your coffee.
Your playlists.
Your dog
Your walks.
Your workouts.
Get the thing you saved up for.
Sunrises.
Sunsets.
Clean sheets.
Rain on the window.
Don’t wait for a bigger life to feel alive.
Be grateful with God for your family everyday.
Decide this life is worth loving. Make the difference.
Be more in love with your everyday, and watch your whole life change.

It’s the little things that make the whole day

Thanks God by @mariagmustafa

13 years later… I’m finally a CF-L1 Trainer ❤️🥹🙏🏻💪🏻

Thank God 🙏🏻

CrossFit has been my passion for more than 13 years. Everything I’ve learned about pushing myself through anything, pushing others past their limits, trusting myself enough to deadlift almost 300 pounds and clean more than 150… it made me realize that I can do whatever I set my mind to if I stay focused and go after my goals. This certification is just one of many goals I have.

Through all these years, CrossFit has been—and still is—the best therapy I’ve found. It makes me believe in my abilities every single day, not just physically. So many times it has brought me back from dark places. So many of the amazing friends I have today came from CrossFit. Our community is just incredible… you become a family, a tribe. The support, the help, the knowledge, the love—it’s all real. It’s organic (with sweat, chalk, a little blood, and dizziness 😅).

As you can tell, my love for this “constantly varied, high-intensity functional movement” keeps growing more than ever. Even when I have to scale back sometimes to move forward (I’m not getting any younger 😅).

I’m so grateful for this sport that taught me discipline, consistency, confidence, mental strength, and respect—core values I still carry and see every day through my coaches and friends.

I could keep going… but I’ll just say thank you, God, a million times for letting me experience this for so many years. And if you’re reading this, go try 1, 2, or 3 classes—you might surprise yourself. You are more capable than you think. That’s one thing I will never regret… those first classes where I challenged myself just to prove to myself that I could.

At the end, I always said:
“I DID IT!!!!
I’ll come back tomorrow.”

And even on the days I didn’t make it…
I said the same thing:
“I’ll come back tomorrow.”

✨ 13 years later… here I am.

Celebrating new PR 👏🏻
The number always looks heavy… until you lift it@
(that’s why I never do the math before lifting) 🤪
Consistency builds strength, inside and out.
PR done. Endorphins talking.
