Well it took about 3 years but there's nothing like 2020 to make me finish getting my home office together! Funny enough, Matthew is now the one who works in here regularly 😂 Shared all the photos on mlovesm.com yesterday if you want to take a peek! It's so nice to have a dedicated spot to work bc even though I'm all about working on the couch (or in bed!), something about a desk makes me get jobs done way more efficiently! #homeoffice #workingfromhome

Walking into a new week with this cutie pie 🙌 Happy Monday friends! I know a new week can feel stressful and maybe a little overwhelming but I wanted to send you a little extra encouragement to just focus one day at a time. Something that I keep reminding myself is that even when I'm feeling stuck or in an in-between place, God has a plan and is often using these hard times to teach me and allow me to grow in some way that is currently unseen. When it feels like life is hard and confusing and this season seems to be more than we can take, know that He can redeem ALL things and every broken situation. And it won't just be restored to how it was, it will be better than ever before. Trust in His plan, because it's always better than our own. #mondaymotivation #mysweetcorinna

A real photo for a real issue that’s been affect

A real photo for a real issue that’s been affecting my heart lately. I know it could be easier to not talk about these things but I do believe God gave me this platform to use wisely and share, even if it’s about something sad and heartbreaking. How many of you are familiar with human trafficking? Did you know it’s happening all over, even in our country and our communities?

❌ Human trafficking is the fastest-growing criminal enterprise in the world.
❌ There are more people enslaved today than any other time in the history of the world— even when slavery was legal.
❌ There are 30 million slaves in the world— 10 million of those are CHILDREN.
❌ Human trafficking generates over 100 BILLION dollars annually worldwide.
❌ 800,000 children go missing WITHIN U.S. BORDERS every year.
❌ 17,500 women and children are trafficked into the US every year.
❌ Americans are the number 1 producer and consumer of child pornography.
❌ On average, a trafficked child is victimized 5.4 times per day in the U.S.
❌ Less than 1% of human trafficking victims are ever rescued.
❌ Most child sex slaves are under the age of twelve, and the life expectancy of a child sex slave is 7 years.
❌ A child sex slave can be raped up to 1500 times a year.

IF YOU WANT TO HELP:
➡️ Start TALKING about it and start LEARNING about it. This is EVERYONES fight.
➡️ Text HELPTHEM to 51555 and @ourrescue will send you text messages with ways to get invoked and bring more awareness. They also have a free online training course that will help train you to recognize signs of trafficking.
➡️ Here are some great organizations to look into: @ourrescue, @projrescue, @childrescuecoalition, @a21, @exoduscry, @hopeforjusticeintl, @childrescuecoalition, @deliverfund and @enditmovement (tag any others you know about below!)

These are just a few options but hopefully it brings a little more awareness to this frightening tragedy. Human trafficking is a very real problem and one that unfortunately it’s being politicized. This is not a right or left issue, it’s a right vs WRONG issue. Good vs pure evil. Let’s do what we can to stand up for what is right and be a voice for the voiceless! 🙏
