Remembering childlike faith through prayer, trust, and quiet moments with God.
There’s a certain feeling I keep coming back to when I think about why I write - a feeling that’s difficult to explain unless you’ve felt it before.
It’s that quiet, childlike faith.
The kind that trusts without overanalyzing.
The kind that hopes without fear.
The kind that believes before doubt learns how to speak.
As we grow older, faith often becomes complicated. Life teaches us to question, guard our hearts, and protect ourselves from disappointment. Pain, loss, and unanswered prayers can slowly replace trust with caution. Before we realize it, faith becomes something we manage instead of something we rest in.
But faith was never meant to feel heavy.
At its core, faith was meant to feel close. Safe. Honest. It was meant to feel like sitting quietly with God - not performing, not proving, not explaining - just being present.
That’s the heart behind my books.
They aren’t about having all the answers or presenting perfect prayers. They’re about honesty. About whispered prayers, silent tears, and the moments when strength feels buried but still exists. They’re about remembering what it feels like to trust God again - the way we once did, before the world taught us to be afraid of believing too deeply.
Sometimes we don’t even realize we’ve lost that childlike faith until something stirs it awake. A sentence. A prayer. A story. A reminder that faith doesn’t have to be loud or complicated to be real.
If you’ve ever felt distant from that place - if you’ve ever missed the simplicity of trusting God without fear or performance - maybe these pages will feel familiar to you too.
