My mama’s Bible study group and I were reading through and studying the book of Jeremiah recently, and in the second chapter, God reveals His frustration at Judah for forsaking Him, the fountain of living water, for broken cisterns that they had made themselves – meaning that they had sunk deep into idolatry and sin […]
I was standing there, looking in the mirror. Maybe you other mamas can relate, but in that moment, I was overwhelmed as I saw all of my flaws – my belly, that not so long ago was rounded out and twice quite literally bursting with life, now just there and sort of limp. My teeth, […]
Can I write a whole book entitled “Things I Once Thought, That Were Just Plain Wrong”? The newest and latest thing on that list is believing that once God asks you to do something, its always and forever on your plate in the same quantity and capacity, and you may never stop doing it full […]
I didn’t even know what I was going to write until I sat down at this blank page, I just knew that I needed to write today. I just had my birthday last weekend, and as I get farther into my 30s, I start to laugh even more at my younger self and the ideas […]
Hey friends! Sorry its been a bit since my last post – we all came down with one of those winter germs that moves through the house in waves – I think we are finally on the way out of it, but you would not have wanted to read anything I wrote up until now!! […]

I don’t really tend to read hype-you-up, trendy self help books but now in my old age, my 30’s, I have learned to read the books that offer Christian wisdom based on experience or revelation. I always thought nonfiction, “be better” books were boring, fusty-dusty sleepy reads until I got to a point in my […]
Hello there lovelies! Today I wanted to talk to you about a phenomenon in my life that I like to call “Shower Curtain Days”. Now, they are something special, and I’m sure they happen to you, just under another name in your world. These are the days that you are waking up tired, maybe a […]
It seems like Christmas was a long time ago, but we are still in January, and so technically the year is still new, right? How are those resolutions coming?
