A Story About Friendship, Courage, and Creating Something New
🤎
You don’t have to see the whole way forward. You only need to trust the One who does.

Faith Is a Bridge:
A Story About Helping Each Other.
A few days ago, I did something I had never done before.
I made a video with narration.
That may not sound like much to some people, but for me it felt a little intimidating.
I had thought about doing it before, but never quite worked up the courage.
The funny thing is, it wasn’t my idea that finally pushed me forward.
It was a friend.
I met Shannon Guillory on YouTube.
She writes poetry unlike anyone I have ever met.
I call her a speed poet
because I still don’t know how anyone can think and speak that fast. 😊
I loved her poems.
She loved my art.
At first I offered to let her use my art with her poems.
Then we started talking about making videos.
Before long, we found ourselves asking the same question:
“How do we actually do that?”
Neither of us knew.
So we learned.
Together.
Somewhere along the way, our separate ideas became a collaboration.
Her words and my art began to unfold together,
taking us on a journey of faith, hope, healing, and believing.
And perhaps that’s exactly what friendship is.
God never intended for us to walk through life alone.
We encourage each other.
We teach each other.
We help each other become brave enough to try something new.
In a world that moves so fast, we need moments of peace
Moments to slow down, reflect, pray,
and remember that God is still with us.
And if you feel alone today, remember this:
Jesus is your friend.
Sit with Him awhile.
Talk with Him.
Trust Him.
He cares more than you know.

“Faith Is a Bridge,”
followed by the video inspired by this collaboration.

Faith is a Bridge 🌉
To reach faraway lands…
We dream beyond ourselves.
And above… to realms
where God is seated.
Faith is the Bridge 🌉
that stands in the gap.
Where prayer is the spoken language
on a heavenly map.
Faith is what I have.
In myself, in you, in humanity.
Where healing isn’t out of reach.
It is only the size of a mustard seed.
It is a child’s belief in goodness and miracles ✨️
from a Heavenly Father who loves us ♡
Faith can move mountains ⛰️
answer prayers 🙏
make the impossible possible.
Bring healing, hope, and strength.
We walk by faith and not by sight.
FAITH IS OUR ASSURANCE.
OUR positivity.
Our Gospel.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not yet seen ✝️💜

Lion of Judah, childhood wonder and awe,
with a woman, a horse,
and of course, a bridge.
