The journey to transformation


🌿 Transformation

A Devotional Poem by Dawn Hill

On the day I was born, I had no way to know
The depth of the path You would ask me to go.
Years passed in shadows, in chaos and pain,
But still, You stood by me, again and again.

You held me. You hid me. You nurtured my soul.
When life tried to break me, You made me whole.
I felt You near, though my world was unclear—
Your whisper was steady, "Beloved, I'm here."

In the still of the night, when sorrow would rise,
I’d feel Your embrace and know You were wise.
Though harm was intended, and fear tried to reign,
You turned every scar into purpose and gain.

Now slowly I see what You've molded from clay—
A daughter restored in a holy new way.
In Your image I stand, both fragile and bold,
A story of grace that’s starting to unfold.

Transformation has fire, and it often has tears,
But it's breaking the chains I wore for years.
The path to the true me—the one You designed—
Is paved with surrender, and shaped by Your time.

So I’ll trust in the waiting, through joy and through ache.
You’re the Potter, the Healer, the One who remakes.
From fear into faith, from broken to brave—
You are the God who still rescues and saves.

📖 Scripture Meditation:

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!"
— 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV)

✨ Reflection Prompt:

Where have you seen God begin a transformation in you, even through the hardest moments of your life?
What areas are still waiting to be fully surrendered to His process of healing and revealing?

🙏 Prayer:

Father, You know every chapter of my life—even the ones written in pain. Thank You for never leaving me in the fire, but using it to refine me. Help me to trust Your timing, Your vision, and Your love as You continue to reveal the person You created me to be. I surrender my past, my pain, and even my pride to Your process of transformation. Make me new in You. In Jesus'  Name Amen

No fear

Well, that escalated quickly. We are officially in a financial hole, and at this point, only God can get us out. We’ve done the diligent work to get out of debt—but we haven’t built stability. That “one paycheck away from broke” warning? It’s real. And today, it hit home. This morning we found out that Scott’s entire paycheck for the week was used to cover medical expenses. The  entire check. And of course, this is the week when all the major bills are set to come out. Now we’re sitting here with nothing to cover them. So, now what? Well—I could beat myself up for not preparing better. But the truth is, we  have  been preparing. More than ever. And yet here we are, between a rock and a hard place. Now, I’ll be honest: the temptation to run back to old comforts like food or distraction is real. But guess what? I just started a 90-day focus on my health and healing this week. Can you say the stupid slimeball enemy just  overplayed his hand ? If the goal of this chaos w...

The Blueprint Begins

The Beginning I never would have imagined there was such a thing as a “Heaven blueprint.”   Growing up in survival mode—surrounded by chaos, confusion, and abuse—I didn’t even know what Heaven really was. Don’t get me wrong, I went to church with my grandma. And after my mom and dad divorced, my mom would toss us on the church bus whenever it rolled through our neighborhood—probably just to get a couple hours of peace (and now, after raising four kids myself, I totally get it). I enjoyed going. We got a snack, we sang songs, and for some reason, I was always captivated by the messages. It was a Southern Baptist church, and the pastor preached hellfire and brimstone like it was his full-time job. Honestly, I credit his vivid descriptions of hell with why I gave my life to Jesus at just 8 years old. No way was I trying to go there. Shortly after, my little brother knelt in front of the TV while we watched The 700 Club and got saved too. Then a neighborhood friend gave his life to Jes...

The Call

  Blog 4: The Call It’s a Seek. See. Act. season. If I’ve learned anything in this life, it’s this: God has always been there . Everything I’ve ever needed has already been planted within me—I just didn’t know how to access it. And if there’s one constant in life, it’s change. With every new season comes a fresh invitation to grow, to heal, and to evolve. But those invitations don’t always look like doors—they often look like storms, struggles, or silent stretches. Looking back over the story I’ve shared so far, here’s what most people don’t realize: I was saved for years, but I didn’t know God. I hadn’t met the Holy Spirit. I didn’t understand that I was the daughter of a King, an heir to Heaven’s throne. That truth was hard for me to accept. I was raised in chaos, shaped by survival. So the idea that I was royalty? Destined for divine inheritance? That felt impossible. Unbelievable. I could believe it for everyone else. When I read the Bible, I believed the promises—fo...
