About the Author -Cristal Mota

Cristal is a Christian writer, public health student, and court administration professional who believes faith should be lived out practically—not just spoken about on Sundays.

Her writing sits at the intersection of Scripture, everyday discipline, and the quiet work of becoming whole in a demanding world.

Rooted in her faith and shaped by her Dominican heritage, Cristal approaches devotionals with honesty and structure. She understands what it means to balance responsibility, calling, and personal growth while still making room for God to lead. As someone who manages family life, academic pursuits, and a professional career, she writes for believers who want depth without overwhelm—women and families who are committed to growing spiritually while showing up fully in their real lives.

Cristal’s background in public health informs her perspective on stewardship—of the body, the mind, and the soul. She is especially passionate about faith-informed wellness, purposeful routines, and cultivating habits that support long-term spiritual and emotional health. Her devotionals are designed to be simple, reflective, and actionable, meeting readers where they are without lowering the standard of truth.

As the new year begins, Cristal invites readers to move beyond resolutions rooted in pressure or perfection and instead pursue faithfulness—one week, one prayer, one obedient step at a time. This devotional space is not about keeping up appearances or rushing spiritual growth. It is about learning to be rooted, steady, and responsive to God’s direction in every season.

Through Scripture, reflection, and prayer, Cristal’s hope is to help readers start the year anchored in Christ, strengthened by wisdom, and prepared to walk forward with clarity and courage.

With Love Always,

Cristal Mota
