Sometimes you impact people who you don’t know. It could be by just being nice, or posting a photo with a heartfelt caption, or asking someone if you can pray for them. Nevertheless, we all have the power to inspire and speak words into people’s lives. Here are the people whom I’ve never met, but have had the biggest impact on me and my faith:
1. Car1y Lynn
I think I found her on Twitter as a suggestion or someone RT'd something of hers that I liked, but whatever the case, this Godly girl is on FIRE for Him. Through her inspiring texts that just know what to say, and her amazing, relatable captions, I have been inspired to dig into my Bible more and drop my insecurities at the door of Christ’s home.
Carly is an adorable human being who manages to have an aesthetically pleasing Instagram filled with God’s Words and Carly’s heart. If I could choose to have an older sister or mentor in my life, I would want her to be it.

2. Jordan Lee Dooley
So technically, I have met her. My best friend and I were in a coffee shop and saw her and got the chance to talk to her for about an hour. She was so genuine and kind in person and reflected who she was on her blog.
I have followed Jordan for a few years now and love who she has become and how far she has grown. She has changed the way I do my Bible Studies, and think about “Brokeness.” She has a lot of knowledge up her sleeve and a heart that encompasses Christ. He is doing great things with her, her husband, and everyone else who reads her blog posts.

3. Godly Relationships
This one, I found on Twitter and followed for all the relatable tweets she had on Godly Relationships. Now, I primarily keep up with her on Instagram where she posts cute pictures with absolutely heart-wrenching relatable captions that speak to you.
She gives advice, has amazing music suggestions, and is just a genuine person. She’s definitely given me a different view on Godly Relationships. Something we all need to look at in this day and age.

4. Lysa TerKeurst
I first learned about her when Uninvited came out and was on sale at Barnes and Noble. I admit, I bought the book cause the cover was pretty. However, the words on the inside were much more beautiful. Lysa has been blessed with writing words that speak to your soul and make you think of things, you would have never thought of.
Each time I turned the page in Uninvited I would either highlight it like crazy, write a note, or devour my Bible in the scripture she provided. She has many stories to tell that we can all relate to. Her book Made to Crave is also amazing and has impacted me and my everyday habits. Someday I would love to meet and just have coffee with this woman.

5. Beth Moore
My small group started a Bible Study using one of her guides and videos and I fell in love with all the knowledge she had to give. Not only does she look amazing for her age, she is hilarious and full of the Holy Spirit.
I have never flipped back and forth in my Bible so much and written so many things down in my journal than when I was listening to one of her videos. God is working wonders through her.
