Next Chapter

Isn’t it incredible to realize we’re approaching the close of 2025? As the year winds down, I find myself drawn to reflection—tracing God’s hand in every moment, both triumphant and trying. This season, even more than most, is filled with a poignant mix of emotions. There have been joyful highs I was eager to share on my blog, as well as deep valleys, some of which I kept quietly between myself and the Lord.

This reflection often leads me to imagine someone peering at the tapestry of my life—seeing its tangled threads and uneven patches—and assuming it’s messy or unremarkable. I’ll admit, I’ve had those same doubts, questioning the beauty or meaning in seasons that felt fractured or incomplete. Yet time and again, God gently reminds me that His work is ongoing. What seems unfinished or flawed right now is in His hands, being woven into a masterpiece—one that will ultimately reveal His loving craftsmanship and greater purpose.

Through this unfolding, God gave me the privilege of sharing glimpses of His handiwork with you. Writing here has been more than storytelling—it’s been about building a culture of honor, where every person feels seen, valued, and uplifted. Vulnerability and authenticity have transformed not just my writing, but my life. Guiding my children as disciples of Jesus has become a sacred calling, and witnessing them grow in faith inspires me daily. Beyond my family, I’ve found joy in championing others—encouraging them to reach further, dream bigger, and step boldly into their God-given purpose.

It’s astonishing to realize nearly six years have passed since this blog began—a space that became a patchwork of memories, lessons, and heartfelt stories. Now, I stand at a crossroads, feeling the gentle nudge to begin a new chapter. There’s a bittersweet ache to moving forward, but it’s outweighed by hope and expectancy for what’s coming. The unknowns ahead are many, but so are the promises of new revelations and encounters with God’s faithfulness.

Before I close this chapter, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to my Champi-Ahns—my unwavering supporters and the true champions behind this journey. Your encouragement has been a steady light, guiding me through moments of doubt and inspiring me to keep sharing vulnerably. Thank you for allowing me to reveal the intimate ways God has been at work within our family and for granting me the freedom to tell our story with honesty.

And to every reader who’s walked this path with me—your thoughtful responses and encouragement have meant more than words can express. Knowing these stories resonated with you or brought comfort on your journey fills me with gratitude. Thank you for being part of this community.

As we turn the page to 2026, let’s step forward with open arms and hearts full of expectancy for all that God has in store. May we welcome the unknown with faith, trusting that the best chapters are yet to be written in each of our stories.
