It's time to start!

New Beginnings ...

Welcome to my blog!

About a year and 1/2 ago I created this space, and today I decided it was time to just get started & do it!

I have named it ... Lilla Rose: Through Thick & Thin for two reasons...

1) Because of Christ, and what He brings to my life day by day ... hour by hour ... moment by moment. I praise Him for His patience in drawing me closer to Him, knowing that He often works best through difficult situations.

~James 4:8a says, "Come near to God and he will come near to you." And,

 Philippians 1:6 says, "being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."

then also,

2) Because of my Lilla Rose hair accessory business, (ideal for both thick & thin hair).

I joined as a consultant/stylist in mid-January of 2014, so now you can see that I deliberately chose the name for two distinct reasons. May God be my Helper & my Guide. <3

I dedicate my business, (and these posts) to Him alone, praying that you'll be encouraged each time you visit.

I trust what is shared here will be practical & "faith-building" for all of us together.

Thanks for stopping by!
