BE you. You are loved

What I Believe

You are a fearfully and wonderfully made workmanship in Christ Jesus. There is only one YOU.

Be Bold

Be Bold, for Christ has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love and sound mind. Stand for what you believe, even it means standing alone. Believe in your conviction. Be bold, for you have hope. And Christ in you is the hope of glory.

Be Unique

You are as unique as your DNA.  Of the more than 108 billion people who have ever existed on Earth, you have a unique sequence in your DNA. For Christ formed your innermost parts; He knit you [together] in your mother’s womb.

Be YOU

Be You. There is only one YOU. Accept yourself just the way you are—your flaws, your body, your perspective, your strengths and your weaknesses. Be you, for it is the key to reach your fullest potential.

My Story

Hello and Welcome,

Firstly, thank you for visiting my blog. My name is Merlyn. But what’s in a name, you’d rather be interested in my story. And what better way can there be to describe my story than to describe it through my favorite phrase—Beauty for Ashes. Elisabeth Elliot said, “Of one thing I am perfectly sure: God’s story never ends with ashes.”  instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair (Isaiah 61:3).

My life is a testimony to it. And I want you to know that you can rest assured that no matter what you are going through today, or how bleak your future looks today, there is hope. Your story is not going to end with ashes. God will bestow on you a crown of beauty
