~About Me~

Hi, I’m Sofia, and this is a message I hold close to my heart—one that has truly changed my life. I feel like now is the time to share it. White Lilies symbolize so much: love, purity, innocence, new beginnings, and resurrection.

To me, they’re a powerful reminder of the simple command God gave us: love others and love them well. No excuses, no hesitations, no “what ifs” or “maybes.” Just love—fully and completely. The past few years haven’t been easy. Balancing school, faith, friendships, and the pain of loss has often felt overwhelming. Middle school brought its challenges, and I found myself struggling to hold onto everything, including my relationship with God. But something changed in 7th grade—I began to truly know Jesus.

And even though life didn’t suddenly become perfect, walking with Him gave me the strength to face each day. This year, when things felt especially heavy, I found hope in Proverbs 3:5-6: “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”

At first, I didn’t fully understand what those words meant. But as I leaned into them, they brought me clarity and peace. They reminded me that I don’t need to have everything figured out—because God does. That verse lifted me out of darkness and led me back to the light. It reminded me of what really matters: loving people the way Jesus does—with grace, patience, kindness, purity, and innocence. Just like a White Lily.
