Mi Hermana Jesse


Can hardly believe that today is one of the last days that we will spend together! I look back upon the moments that brought us together and the fear of the unknown.... Would we be able to make this work.... I am so blessed to be able to say that I have come out of this situation with one of the best friends I can have ever prayed for. Jesse, you have sown seeds of truth and joy in my life, you have been there through brokeness and tears and prayed relentlessly for my heart. I am encouraged by your faith and blessed to share in your struggles and triumphs. God has such an amazing future that will unfold all in His timing, and as we move from this place and go forth as God calls... Let us look back on these days as one small step into the glorious future as we conquer the earth in His Name. I am so excited to continue to do life with you, may you always seek and never conform to the patterns of this America.... (my spanish heart). You will perservere in your education ... Praise the Lord! Love you more than words will say... Keep your heart open! My sister, best friend and almost x-roomie... You are always welcome in my home!

Moments with the Family






these are the moments that make life worth enduring. God has blessed me with such amazing siblings... Always there to give support and love. Henry gave me a poster ... New Job Congrats. Cole and Auntie Ranna. All four siblings. Kyle and I. and then sisters with Kyle. love.

Blooming Change

Tis the season to feel the motivation to move: grow and change. The oppurtunities begin to bloom with the spring leaves and the tulips. Many of us feel the refreshing of the Spring Rain as it begins to wash away the ugliness of the winter... Beginning to feel the Voice of God speak and the obdience to follow in the new directions He leads us....

In my life many things are taking place, and many people are beginning to move out into the direction that they feel they need to go. Meeting with friends, catching up, and remembering all of our memories : preparing for our seperation ... It is very solem moments as we realize our fate, many times knowing that our paths may not cross for many years... I just wanted to take the time to thank the Lord for giving me these very inspirational people in my life. They have been blessings and each person has placed a hand print on my heart.

It's official! I am a Winona State University Graduate - that means: Brianna Marie Kalinowski, BSN can be added to my John Hancock! (Lol, not serious). What an amzing celebration last week with my incredible family, friends, and classmates. (I will put photos in the bottom of this blog)






First I want to give undivided praise to my Lord and Saviour - Its so amazing to have gone through all that the past four years has given me - In which the Hand of God never left my side and His protection and Guidance has lead me to this very moment. I am so thankful and blessed.... it takes me aback knowing that HE LOVES ME! I am so excited to move into this next couple years of change and choices as God leads and guides me.






My Family came to visit (MOM, DAD, GMA - SISTER - HENRY) Super Exciting! I was able to host and show them the area which I have spent the last four years. It was so special to have them here. They have blessed me, and I wouldnt have been able to do this without their encouragement and support (Prayers especially).






FRIENDS! I am so grateful to all of you have been able to share in the past moments of my life, the struggles, pain, joy, laughter, tears. I love you all, and I only hope to make an impact on you like you all have on me. Please know that you are all dear to me.






I interviewed for my dream position - Neonatal ICU! I am patiently waiting to hear from them sometime in the next few days. I am resting in the peace that God knows what is coming next. I had an amazing convo with friends last night about the Moving of God. God is paving the way for change. I am preparing my heart to be used and opening myself for that new step. Reading the Word, and Praying.


THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR EVERYTHING!
