Hello to you!⠀ ⠀ I want to share something different today. Those who are around me lately know I have changed my lifestyle from vegetarian to Plant-based about Six months ago. My primary reason for doing so (apart from health) is the environment. Did you know that IF you are on a Plant-based diet, your environmental impact is reduced by 84%? 84%! That includes land use, climate change, and water depletion. How crazy is that? Reducing your animal product consumption goes a long way guys. Never underestimate the effect of what you can do.⠀ ⠀ Read more on my blog! www.jennachristy.com ⠀ ⠀ #plantbasedlifestyle (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2xUrxWgVRM/?igshid=pdstdsk7d64u

Whatever this week looks like for you— from many things to do TO nothing much to do... YOU GOT THIS GIRL!⠀ ⠀ Cheering you on from my side of the world. On that note, anything I can pray for you? 💕⠀ ⠀ #mondaymotivation (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2u5M2Vg56u/?igshid=nf184gqjw9xn

“Here’s what I’ve learned through it all: Don’t give up; don’t be impatient; be entwined as one with the Lord. Be brave and courageous, and never lose hope. Yes, keep on waiting—for he will never disappoint you!” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ It’s hard not to give up when you’ve been enduring in the waiting for so long. How do you keep hoping? Where do you get the boldness and courage to keep going? This verse reminds me that all those things are possible when I entwine myself with the Lord. Instead of finding my satisfaction in the ticked boxes of my to-do list, to simply be with Jesus. To spend time with him and draw closer to him. Then, even with the whole week descending upon us, it won’t feel as though it’s a burden, but it’s a privilege to walk this week because Jesus is holding your hand through it all. What about you, what encourages you to face the new week ahead? 😊 #mondayreminders (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2dFqmZA1Vc/?igshid=z65fwge5l9de

Eco tip of the day: DID YOU KNOW THAT the carbon footprint of a vegetarian diet is about half that of a meat-lover’s diet? 🤓🧐 That’s certainly a thought we can think about... the possibilities if we can choose to eat less meat. I made an E-guide for you to download for free if that’s something that piques your interest (link in my bio)😉 #ecothursday (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2Se3cSgMF3/?igshid=188owdtmfml4p

What has God been speaking to you lately? What has He been whispering to you? Is it His sweet promises of love and inheritance and blessings? Is it His presence? His hand holding you through the valley and shadows? It’s all true, you know. His promises are true. I believe them. Not everyone will agree though, you know why? Sometimes we misinterpret His words. We expect Him to give us answered prayers that are different from what He has in mind. And when the answers come, we are disappointed. But He shows up! He always shows up and hands us the kind of story and answers that are so unexpected but are so sooo much better than we expected and could ever pray for! Now, I can’t tell each one of you what God will do specifically in your life, or how He would answer your soft or loud prayers. BUT I can tell you that He has heard them, friend! And trust Him, His answers are on the way. Trust that His ways are higher than our ways, than His mind is far too greater than ours, and His plans? They are far too grand than what our imaginations could ever visualize! (Ephesians 3:20) So, what has been God speaking to you lately? Sound off in the comments below what I, as your friend, can pray for you.💕 #Heislistening (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2KsX8YgPdw/?igshid=11mm9ffbmqaiz

Ahh... There’s something about that verse that makes me feel warm inside. Its truth is romancing my soul.⠀ ⠀ When nothing makes sense, and we’re just left confused and restless, this verse offers a non-answer answer. It’s an explanation, but not really. But somehow, our spirit recognizes the truth in it. We may ask God “Why?!” or “when is this gonna happen, Lord?”, and the answer He gives for now, “I make everything beautiful in My time.”⠀ ⠀ Wherever you are in your season of waiting or walk in life, be comforted that God’s got this and His timing and plans will always far exceed ours. ❤️ ⠀ ⠀ #wednesdayreminders (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B19h1lfgWWY/?igshid=dobrulbv5isr

In my pursuit of trying to be more eco friendly, I’ve replaced using shower gels and cheap soaps to handmade ethically made and natural ingredients kinds of soaps. I’ve been doing it for months now. I find that not only is it helpful for the environment, it’s been moisturizing for my skin too. Next transition will be making my own lotion😂🤭. Have you done that before? Any suggestions? #ecotuesday https://www.instagram.com/p/B17B4LigYc5/?igshid=920peb58atp3

It might be cliché to say but it undeniably works everytime. Pray and wait. . And when you do get tired of praying and waiting, we are only humans after all, Romans 8:26-28 says “the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.” . what are you praying and waiting on this season? Can I pray with you? 💕 #youarenotalone #prayandwait (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B14jDqWggP4/?igshid=fyw52s2otuw4

Queen Assel. Love you S! miss you and our more carefree days 😂. If only we knew this will be what we will be doing 12 years from when we met, we would have been so surprised, right? But 12 years!!!⠀ ⠀ You are a caring and loving friend, wife, supermom, daughter, to all of us! You are brave and strong, even if you don’t feel like it. Grace is your portion in this season, and be assured it will bring fruits in due time.🌸 Tag a friend you want to encourage today! 😊 ⠀ #appreciationpost https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wpjHFgG-z/?igshid=mbrffie6q7c8

I honestly get excited shopping for veggies. Like when my friend @olliene_lim and I stopped at this little market stall on our way to the bus stop and bought bok choy and fruits 🤭. Contrary to popular belief, plantbased diets are actually not nutritionally deficient. If you want to read more about some stuff I researched about the plantbased lifestyle, I made a downloadable pdf which you can download on my bio. :) #veggiesarelife⠀ ⠀ (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1uZvpygy79/?igshid=x0foveaqgyxf

Random question of the day⠀ ⠀ I have been writing a lot lately, because of that a soiree of plots and stories swirl around my head dancing in different arrays in my imagination. I reflect in my own life, I have never been this content. I know God is writing my story, and that's all I need to know. Sure, there will be moments of transition between seasons where we would like to know where we are heading, I cannot tell you you will know for sure what you’re supposed to do right now, but I can assure you He is holding your hand as He navigates. I want to ask, how about you, if you could write your own life and love story, how would it go?⠀ ⠀ #randomquestion (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1rt0qGA5OU/?igshid=154r7axp4htpo

Two months ago, a friend of mine (shoutout @tiffanyandrukat ) and I wrote a paper on the ethics of fast fashion. Suffice to say, that paper made my conviction to research more about the stuff I buy before I buy it stronger. Questions such as "who made it? Who packaged it? Are they sourced well? Are they treated good? Given fair wages?" It's exhausting, but it's worth it. At whose expense will I be sacrificing just to satisfy my wants? Also actually, I just don't shop much anymore, unless needed, which surprisingly is not much. ha! The only way to stop the “craving” is to stop. ⠀ ⠀ #ecotuesday⠀ ⠀ (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1pmxPcg3Zt/?igshid=danq7gvakeob

With our technology today, it’s very easy to see what others have that we don’t, and where they are that we haven’t been yet. It certainly makes life very interesting YET the very envy we feel will cause us to stumble in our own walk. We change lanes and try to achieve goals that were not ours to begin with. (I’m guilty of this too!😒) We get so easily DISTRACTED. Our race called life is certainly full of bumps and curves, and it’s hard to stay focused, especially when we strive by ourselves.⠀ ⠀ But GOD is faithful. (thank You Lord!) May this verse remind you that we are not meant to run alone. He is our strength and His grace will always be enough. We only need to keep our eyes on Jesus. How? Well, spend time with him, He is waiting for you. ❤️⠀ ⠀ #dailydevo (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1mbaoUAQND/?igshid=uc5qi0auehjx

This is the first picture I took when I arrived in Sydney almost 5 years ago. The people here and now, and the ones who are now friends of my destiny, have made it “home” for me (for now!😉)I am grateful to God because He knew, even when I resisted to obey Him in the beginning. 😂⠀ ⠀ Who else can relate?⠀ ⠀ #home⠀ (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1esuRgAf50/?igshid=w2dt5deg0ydp
