When Sophia's Journey Becomes YOUR Journey


Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding,for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed. Proverbs 3:13-18

        Sophia is the Latin word for wisdom, and that is the journey I am on. As an education major, working towards being a teacher, as a Christian and Missionary walking in God’s wisdom and leading those to his wisdom, and as the founder of Sophia’s Journey as my team and I work together to provide educational wisdom and God’s wisdom to children all over the globe. 

         This is the journey and the path God has brought me to. As a 19 year old sometimes this path can be very difficult. I am 3 years away from getting my bachelors, I have two part time jobs that makes me just enough money to save for Africa and get me down the road. I am in a daily struggle just to be patient with where God has me and what he is doing. But never the less God has me on this journey, and all though it is a struggle it is the most rewarding journey I have ever been on. I will continue to work as hard as I can and do close to anything, until I am here 
back here in this moment with my boys again. 
and Here, holding my Babies 

 Here with my Dada, my sister. 

here with my Baba my African Father 
and here with my Best friend my Max! 

But everyday God teaches me that sometimes the journey is long, and it takes a while to get to our destinations. But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 

And that right there, makes the waiting on the Lord, the struggles and the patients, WORTH IT! 

I am Reba and I am on Sophia's Journey
