And like a garden, I will grow

You’re the Living Water,

God we thirst for you,

In the dry and the barren,

A flower in bloom,

You’re the Sun that’s shining,

You restore my soul,

Come tend the soil,

And like a garden, I will grow.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

– Chinese philosopher Laozi

"Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know mine integrity. 

If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart walked after mine eyes;

Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out." 
Job 31:6,7a,8 (King James Version)

Job's understanding of God's omnipotence and omniscience humbled him to the point of rejecting his own way and his own eyes desires. Job desired his integrity to be weighed by God alone, that if one step turned out of the way he would be rooted out and all his offspring.

I'm beginning this journey with an eagerness to understand, just as Job did,  the all powerful and all knowing God I serve more wholly and to share Him with others with a sincere heart. If the integrity of these excerpts and writings were weighed, I pray that it would find perfect balance between the steps beneath my feet and the desires of my eyes, with His. 

With that being said, welcome! My name is Rebecca Closser and I want to use this platform as a way to share my faith, my time in the Word of God,  and my adventures in His creation. On one hand, I will be sharing my daily studies and things that God has pointed out to me. On the other hand, I will be sharing my travels in His creation. You can't separate the Creator from His creation and He is certainly worth of all praise, honor, and glory for it all.  

I was born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida. Today I am 23 years old and attend Living Faith Bible Institute with the intent of receiving my Associate in Divinity. In June of 2022, I married my best friend, Christopher. We live in Downtown Jacksonville, work in the city, attend ONE Baptist Church, and love to travel. My husband and family, my job, my church, and all of my adventures so far are a big part of who I am today, and what has inspired me to write. I hope you’ll stay around and join me on this new adventure!
