About Me

Hi, i'm gen! This is the space where I share my heart and love for Jesus. This blog is the unfolding bits and pieces of my life...my story. The name 'soaring up in sunshine' is one that came to me while I was musing one day about blogging. I simply want to share my story in the Light of God and hope it inspires you to live a meaningful life that soars higher and higher in His marvelous light.

I'm a young lass living in Ghana, where there's lots of sunshine. ;) Writing is my escape and i love to curl up and read. I love acoustic, folk worship music, singing, butterflies and the colour purple (no, not the movie. i mean the color itself.) oh, and turquoise too! I'm definitely a girly-girl. I don't mind whimsically musing every now and then. That's what happens when you're a writer. ;) I totally love beautiful natural scenic stuff...deep blue skies...colorful flowers...sunsets...a range of gorgeous mountains...sunrises...lakes...the horizon where blue meets blue. Nature seriously takes my breath away and reminds me of the beautiful artist that God is. I find peace and a deeper connection with Him when I dwell on these miracles.

"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."  Matthew 5:14-16

I believe God created you and I for a purpose, which ultimately is to worship Him and reflect His glory, His love. I believe we need His guidance to discover the talents and spiritual gifts He's placed in us in order for us to use them to draw people into His light. I'm not ashamed of Jesus and the Gospel, and you shouldn't be either. 

 I'm glad you stopped by, and hope you stay a while. I'm excited to get to know you! :)

xoxo,

gen.
