As we start off the New Year, many of us are writing down our resolutions, or creating goals we’re preparing to reach. The past few years I’ve heard more and more people talking about choosing their “one word for the year” With the plan to be more intentional about living that word out through theContinue reading “Gratitude”
Satisfied in You
We have just about everything at our fingertips. A message can be sent across the globe, in a matter of seconds. You can download whole seasons of a tv show, and watch it all in one night. Potential relationships can be swiped through, with just a glimpse of their lives. You can even heat upContinue reading “Satisfied in You”
Birds of the Air
I’ve spent a good portion of my life wrestling with anixety. Stomach aches and fast heart rates. Chipping away fresh nail polish, while sitting in the very back row. Always making sure I had an escape plan for any scenario, all while telling myself in my head “you’re fine, just keep breathing.” I’m sure you’veContinue reading “Birds of the Air”
One Year
One year ago today, I stood next to my father’s bedside in the Intensive Care Unit. As a machine kept him breathing, I knew I was saying my final goodbyes. The past few weeks I’ve wondered what today would look like. How I would feel, where I would go, and how would I take timeContinue reading “One Year”
Nothing but the Truth
“If we say we have fellowship with Him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice truth.” 1 John 1:6 This verse right here calls out the middle ground territory. The balancing act of one foot in this world, and one foot in the kingdom of God. It calls out the idleness,Continue reading “Nothing but the Truth”
Knowing Him
How do you get to know someone? A little over a year ago, I was introduced to a woman at a large gathering. We did the basic exchanging of names, smiled, said “nice to meet you” and that was about the end of it. Weeks after I repeatedly heard her name, and saw pictures ofContinue reading “Knowing Him”
The Lord’s Purpose > Man’s Plan
If you know me, you know I’m a planner. You can guarantee I have a link to set up a potluck sign up sheet, or a balloon pump for surprise parties. More than that though, I’m often setting up a timeline in my head, trying to figure out the best way to get things done.Continue reading “The Lord’s Purpose > Man’s Plan”
Job, David, You, and I
Job, David, You, and I. What’s the common theme here? Let’s take a deeper look. “For my sighing comes instead of my bread, and my groanings are poured out like water. For the thing that I fear comes upon me, and what I dread befalls me.” Job 3:24-25 The book of Job is packed withContinue reading “Job, David, You, and I”
Whatever It Takes
“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us.” -Ephesians 3:20 My mind is constantly running. Ideas, thoughts, and plans are always flowing through my head. Often these are way out of my current capabilities, whether it beContinue reading “Whatever It Takes”
Total Surrender and Seeking Him
To start this blog, I want to go back for a minute. Let’s go back to about 7 months ago. It’s May of 2020, and I’m sitting in my car listening to my anthem at the time, “I Surrender” by Hillsong Worship. Every time the song ended, I hit the replay button. In that momentContinue reading “Total Surrender and Seeking Him”
