“Now I’m dancing on the grace that I once lived in!” // “GOODBYE YESTERDAY” by ELEVATION RHYTHM, Gracie Binion

Hey everyone! It’s be soooo long!! My gosh I can’t believe (well I can but still) that I haven’t posted a single blog this year on the website. I would say I’m ashamed but my heart just wasn’t in it. Sadly. But I want to do this now, and that’s what matters! I hope you’ll stay with me through the highs and lows. 🩵

The Year of Goodness☀️ —Don’t forget how Good God Is 

Before we get into the depths of the post, let me start off being telling you my word for the year and how it’s impacted my life. 

My word of the year is GOODNESS. The word has been spoken over my life and I’ve experienced tremendous amounts of Goodness throughout this year (all my life😉). God has really shown me how good He is by blessing me and giving me the courage to sustain myself in His presence each and every day. When I remain humble and faithful, God shows up. Over and over again. I can’t believe nor comprehend the amount of security I have in Christ and the One True God. 

God has shown up for me by showing me who is for me and against me, by blessing me with ability to lead others in worship (we’ll go deeper into this later), and by showing me that when I lean on Him, I have everything I need.

The biggest change and answered prayer is that I am now on the Worship Team at Port City Church. It’s been the biggest blessing I’ve had in my entire life and I know it’s because it’s what I’ve been called to do. Sing His praises. Took a year and a half, for me to finally get on stage but all of it was worth the wait! 

Let’s talk about the waiting. Gosh it was hard, but easy at the same time with the help and mentorship I received from JP (previous worship director) and Anika (current worship director). Those two people led me through my journey of becoming a vocalist just like my heart longed for. Then Easter Sunday came and Tee was a gang vocalist for the worship service!! Ahhh highlight of the year!! 

I’ve been on stage at least twice a month since then and let me tell you, GOD DID THAT! He knew what He was doing when He placed a microphone in my hand, and song of praise out of my mouth! I’ve come to love everything about worshiping our Heavenly Father and Jesus. the Holy Spirit fills me every single time I get to help lead others through worship! My step-mother Melissa said I get so giddy, have so much confidence, and love it so much because it’s where God is meeting me. God meets me on stage so that I do this all for Him. Not just for me. It’s about the callings snd my calling is to lead others in worship! Can I get an amen! 🙏🏾 

Speaking of the Lord, let’s talk about the Word. Bible study has been a journey, trust me. There are days where I don’t get to my Bible reading and those are usually the days where I either fall short, am stressed, or having a hard time. So, my understanding is, getting in God’s Word and sitting within His presence is the best option for my soul, heart, and mind. 

I have read from Genesis through Job in the Old Testament and man has it been a great thing to study and read through. I’ve learned so much, from the stories of Moses, David, Joseph, to Ruth, Esther, Job, and more! After getting all the way to the book of Psalms (which I’m currently reading through now), I have a better understanding of the Old Testament. Especially when at church, I actually understand what the sermons are talking about because I’ve read through Scripture and comprehended what I read. How awesome is that!

This is a lengthy post but I feel like it’s needed. Bear with me, we’re almost to the finish line. 🏁

Moving forward to the hobbies of life. 

1. I’ve read 22 books this year! Genres range from: Romance, fantasy, mystery, thriller, personal growth, Christian! Want recs? I’ll send some in a later post! 
2. The GYM! Listen, the gym and I weren’t the best of friends for a like half this year but once I fell back in love with it, last week, I’m here 3 days a week, and I LOVE IT. I’ll even be posting my workout routine and what I do each time I come. It’s okay to fall in your fitness journey, routine, whatever you wanna call it. As long as you get back in! And that’s all that matters! On the days I’m not in the gym, I’m doing yoga, resting and recovering, a walk outdoors, etc, so there’s always other forms of working out other than the gym! Remember that! 

Gratitude: 

1. I am grateful for my GOD! He has done wonders in my life and I could cry daily about it! 
2. My boyfriend is my favorite person in this world, I wouldn’t be here without him. He’s gotten me through tough times, and loves me for who I am. I will forever be thankful for Landon! 
3. My church! Port City Church has shaped me into a fellow Christ follower and I praise Jesus for this! Thank you to Anika for aiding me in my call to worship, Pastor Steve, Pastor Apollo and Pastor Dave for sharing the message of God each week! 
4. For my community of women in my life holding me up! 
5. For prayer, without it I couldn’t speak to my heavenly Father ! And I cherish my time and talks with God! 

Well! It’s been an honor writing for you, welcome back to my blog! I love you! Follow me on Instagram for now other than this website! Links below! 

Xoxo, 

And that’s the TEE☕️🩵
