About

Hi. My name is Starla Ipson. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As a woman, wife, mother, sister, and friend, I have had many experiences that have strengthened my relationship with my Savior, Jesus Christ. I know He lives. I know He loves me. And because of this knowledge, through the struggles and difficult times and especially during the daily routines and hardships of life, I have joy. My life has not been easy, but it is full of joy and faith and hope because of Jesus Christ. My purpose in writing this blog is to inspire others to find joy in Christ. I hope that as fellow Christians, we can band together to create unity and love instead of divisiveness and fear. I hope that in recognizing that each of us has challenges daily – great and small – we can find happiness and feel the light and peace of Jesus Christ if we seek Him. I do not claim to have the worst trials. I do not claim to know all about Jesus Christ as I am still learning and will always be a student and follower of Him. I do not speak on behalf of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This is a simple blog for sharing my own thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. I respect each person’s ability to choose and act for themselves, so I do not expect to change how you think or believe. But, I sincerely hope that as you read this blog, you can find some level of the joy and peace I personally have experienced in my own life because of my personal relationship with my Savior, Jesus Christ. If my words are helpful in any way, I invite you to follow and subscribe accordingly. If you disagree, I respect your ability to do so and kindly ask that you grant the same respect here. Enjoy.
