Would you like to encounter Jesus daily?

Hello,
My name is Julie, and like you, there have been periods in my life where I’ve struggled to encounter Jesus. I have battled through upheavals in life where I struggled to find joy and contentment. Frustrated by the interruptions to my daily rhythms, I found it difficult to sense the presence of Jesus. But God used those challenges to help me learn how to experience His presence within the ups and downs of life. Now I look forward to my daily encounters with Him.
Friend, Jesus is with us every day. He is in the trenches with us, even if it doesn’t feel like it or we can’t sense Him. He is with us in the midst of life’s biggest challenges to its smallest of details.
My passion is to help you encounter the presence of Jesus, not just when life is hard, but in the ordinary moments of your day.
