Hello World

 Hello world. This is my blog. In case you're new here, I just wanted to say a few thing...
 My name is Kayla and apparently I am a writer... I write because I enjoy it; I find it liberating and helpful and what I call "a form of self therapy" for me.
 I truly hope that you can be encouraged here, but also know that I do write first for myself; this is an outlet, a sorting place and a documentary of my journey.
 As I have grown through my personal trials, I have had a growing desire to help and inspire others, so that definitely is part of the goal of this blog. I have experienced many times the feeling of being misunderstood or felt completely alone or crazy, and I want anyone who reads this to know that if you are experiencing those things, you are definitely not alone.
 This is a place where I share my faith, my fears, my food, my family life, and my feelings.
 I would prefer that you read this blog in it's entirity, starting from the first post and going through to the most recent. Mostly because I feel that I have grown alot since I started writing and I would like you to understand who I am now, whereas starting at the latest post and reading through to the oldest kind of takes you backwards. But most importantly​, I want you to get "the whole picture."
 Also know that while I am open to sharing things, this is not a place where I feel like getting into heated discussions or long debates. Comments are welcome though😊.
 I do not intend to insult or upset anyone, but I do write honestly and true to myself, so that might happen....we can't all agree on everything. And that's ok with me.
 It is my heartfelt desire to encourage others, specifically in their faith and their personal health journey, and to inspire them to self reflection and improvement, leading them to be the best that they can be for God, for others, and for themselves.
 Welcome.💛

My Fish Cakes Recipe -(Paleo)-

I am trying to incorporate more fish into my diet, and these delicious fish cakes are a new family favorite! They can be made with tuna or salmon, salmon having slightly more to offer nutritionally; high Omega 3 fats, vitamin D, and selenium. (and more!) Fish is so good for your brain and heart, and can improve your mood, weight, and overall health. Interestingly, the selenium in fish helps keep our bodies from absorbing the mercury found in fish! God's good design :) This article  explains that in more detail, if you're a "nerd" like me and love learning about food. Anyway, on to the recipe! Ingredients- 3 cans salmon, tuna or sardines 3 TBS mayonnaise 3 TBS coconut flour 3 eggs 3 tsp mustard 1/4 tsp salt pepper 1/4 cup chopped green onions (1) Open canned fish and empty into med/large bowl. The fish I use has no added water, so I pour all the juices in too, no draining! Try to keep the fish somewhat off to side. Add the coconut flour to the j...

Oatmeal cake, a classic recipe my mom would make when I was growing up. I have adapted it to suit my family's diet; it is gluten free, lower sugar, and I use pecans on top instead of cornflakes. It is so comforting and cozy to eat; the spices are warming and fragrant, and the texture is soft and moist. It is one of my favorite treats, and I'm so thankful to be able to enjoy it again with my family! A nice bowl of oatmeal, with molasses, chia seeds, cinnamon, cashew butter, butter, coconut oil, hemp hearts and soaked/sprouted pecans. I wasn't able to eat oatmeal for years, due to the pain and bloating it caused. But I'm thrilled to say that I have eaten it many times now with zero digestive issues. It's crazy and wonderful and my brain is still getting used to the idea of it being safe and normal, but every time I eat it, my brain gets a little more comfortable with it. I'm not scared, but I can hear my brain saying, "wait...I thought this w...

Psalm 66:16-20: "Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for my soul. I cried to Him with my mouth, and He was extolled with my tongue. If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear. But certainly God has heard me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer. Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me!" I've had several conversations lately about some of the treatments I've received, mostly regarding the NAET treatments, so this has been on my mind... I just have a few things I want to clarify.  First and foremost, I want to make it very clear that I believe ALL healing is by God and for His glory. He alone gives life and breath and power. The Bible tells us this and I believe it is a foundational truth. Another foundational truth is that there is only one way for us to be right with God and that is through His Son, Jesus Christ; through His sacrifice and death on the cross and His Resurrectio...
