Before Christ

Before Christ, my platform benefited me.

After Christ, it belongs to Him.

I used to sell makeup, promote self-truth, and speak without restraint.

Now I’m learning that truth isn’t found within me—it’s found in Jesus.

Lately, social media hasn’t felt fun.

There’s hate. Resistance. Pushback.

And honestly, I’ve questioned walking away.

But God keeps reminding me—

He didn’t waste a single season.

He was preparing this space long before I ever knew Him.

And if I stay silent about Jesus, someone godless won’t.

So I’m here.

Not for applause.

Not for comfort.

But for obedience.

If my goal were to please people, I would not be Christ’s servant.

— Galatians 1:10

1/16 Edited to

... Read moreSharing my journey of shifting from self-expression to faith-driven content creation has truly been transformative. Early on, I viewed social media mainly as a stage for personal growth and influence, but as I deepened my walk with Jesus, it became clear that my platform was entrusted to me for a higher purpose—not my own acclaim. Navigating social media as a Christian creator can be challenging. The environment often feels hostile with backlash and resistance, which can make anyone question continuing. However, recognizing that every season I’ve been through was part of God’s preparation helped me embrace this space with renewed courage. It reminded me that my voice should not be silenced, especially when it comes to sharing Christ’s message where others may not. Obedience to Christ rather than seeking human approval reshapes how we engage online. It means prioritizing truth found in Jesus over popular opinion or personal gain. This shift encourages resilience amidst negativity and renews the joy in connecting with others who share the faith journey. I’ve also found that using hashtags like #savedbygrace and #boldforchrist helps connect with communities that uplift one another in this mission. Being part of such networks reinforces the importance of consistency in sharing testimony and kingdom content with authenticity. Ultimately, accepting that my platform belongs to Christ drives me to use it responsibly. It’s not about applause or comfort but about faithfully serving His purpose, inspiring others, and making a difference in a social media world that can sometimes seem void of hope.
