Hey, friend! I'm Alex. ♡

A Jesus-loving, big-feeling, laugh-a-little-too-loud kind of girl. I'm a lover of spontaneous adventures, meaningful conversations, and finding beauty in the little things. I love people deeply, wear my heart on my sleeve, and have a tendency to turn a five-minute conversation into a two-hour heart-to-heart.

I'm usually a go-with-the-flow kind of girl, but that doesn't mean I don't have big dreams, deep desires, and a whole lot of things I'm trusting Jesus with.

I'm a work in progress, and I'm learning to find joy in that.

A little bit of my heart.

At the beginning of this year, I chose love as my word for the year.

I wanted to learn how to love like Jesus. Little did I know how much He would teach me about being loved by Him.

About being chosen before I ever had anything to prove. About loving with open hands. About finding peace in the unknown and praising Him before I see the outcome.

I'm learning that life doesn't have to look a certain way for it to be beautiful, and that God's goodness isn't something reserved for the chapters that make sense.

He is good here, too.

Why Written in the Waiting?

I've always loved a good testimony, but I started wondering why we feel like we have to wait until the story is finished to share it.

What about the things God is teaching us right now? The prayers we're still praying? The little moments of obedience, the unexpected joys, and the ways He's shaping our hearts in the middle of it all?

That's where Written in the Waiting was born.

Inspired by Leah's words in Genesis 29:35, “This time I will praise the Lord,” I want to cultivate a heart that praises Jesus in every season, not just the ones that turn out the way I hoped.

What you'll find here.

A little bit of faith, a whole lot of heart, and probably more rambling than necessary.

This is a space for honest conversations about Jesus, identity, love, surrender, purpose, and the beautiful process of becoming.

I'm not here to tell you that I've figured it all out. I'm here to share what I'm learning, invite you into the conversation, and remind you that you are deeply known, intentionally loved, and already chosen by God.

So, wherever you find yourself today, I'm really glad you're here.

Here's to living fully, loving deeply, laughing often, and praising Him in the midst of the unknown.

Our testimonies are still being written, and what a beautiful thing it is to know the Author.

With love and open hands,

Alex ♡
