Journey Into the Light
My journey has taken me through
many landscapes, many seasons
many landscapes, many seasons
Hi, I'm Angela Terese!
I have a fun, whimsical side and a serious, contemplative side.
I am a mix of childlike faith and warriorlike passion.
I want to operate in simple trust while practicing discernment and wisdom.
I am on a mission
to empower and encourage,
to reveal truth and release freedom,
the freedom found in God-given destiny and identity
As a young child I had a simple faith in God and life was full of wonder and joy.
Then innocence was stolen and darkness descended and I wanted nothing to do with God. I outright hated him.
But I was desperate for a rescue out of vicious cycles of intense fear and depression.
When it came to a point where it was all just too much, I cried out to God, begging him to deliver me and reveal himself to me, if he was indeed real and good.
AND HE ANSWERED MY CRY.
In his incredible mercy and grace and love, he revealed to me who he was, and how he was good. And in response, I made a decision to follow and understand further who this amazing God was and discovered in the process who I really am.
Way more space would be needed to fully unpack my story, and that is why I have this blog, and a podcast. (Coffee, Tea, God and Me)
I am navigating my journey in the light of truth, and amidst the challenges and trials that get in the way, I have God walking with me, and so I will continue to
Rise, Shine and Live Fully.

Rise, Shine and Live Fully.
RISE up and be who I was created to be,
let my identity SHINE as a beacon of hope,
LIVE FULLY in the gifts and good plans that God set for me.
let my identity SHINE as a beacon of hope,
LIVE FULLY in the gifts and good plans that God set for me.
ARISE [from spiritual depression to a new life], SHINE [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come, and the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you
