About Me

I sold my house on March 17, 2022. Up until that point I thought I had done all the things you are supposed to do when creating this adult life.

I went to college. I got my bachelor’s degree. I got a professional job in administrative services at a college. I made decent money. I bought a house all on my own. I went back to school. I earned my master’s degree. I had “arrived”.

But all the things that were supposed to make me feel accomplished or fulfilled only made me feel empty. I was depressed, and I started to resent my choice of career. The life I had built for myself felt worthless.

I continued this feeling of dissatisfaction with myself until January 30, 2020, when my Mom strongly suggested I come to church with her. I had fallen away from the church for many reasons, but I decided to return perhaps not because the relationship between God and I had become strained and I wished to salvage it, but because I wanted to appease my Mother. 

It took that one little nudge and God had me back. Over the course of the next few years I have focused on growing my relationship with Him. I am in complete awe of how God has transformed me and my narrow view of life. 

This March, the 17th, will be the one-year anniversary of the sale of my house and my renewed commitment to live my life according to God’s will and not my own. God and I have so many plans that don’t involve the traditional western way of living. I’ve got big changes coming to my life. If you’re in a position where your life feels unfulfilled, I invite you to join me on my quest to God’s freedom from this heavy world. 

Join me as I blog my way through this faith-filled life.

A Chosen Daughter,

A. Anna
