Hey everyone! Happy Friday to you, wherever you are đ If you read my recipe post on Tuesday, you read that I just finished my fourth round of the Whole30 challenge! Woot! (and there was much rejoicing!) Actually, if Iâm being quite honest, this one wasnât that hard because I had been keeping most of […]
So it hit me earlier this week how often I say the word âjustâ when talking to God, or thinking of my situation. Anyone else? âGod if you could just provide for this bill.â âGod if you could just help me todayâŚâ I read once that our âjustâ prayers are some of the weakest, most […]
So today is my birthday. I debated for awhile about telling you my age or not, and then realized I have no reason not to â am I ashamed of it? And then my weird brain told me, yes, you kind of are, which is ridiculous! I am 32 years old today, and in my […]
Ok, reason number 4,367 that you know youâre a mom â the absolute biggest highlight of your week was finding a nice park for the kids to play so you can be outside for awhile! One of the downsides to being in an apartment with toddlers is that there is absolutely no space to play […]
So, if charities and such host “Christmas in August”, I think today we should have “Thanksgiving in July”! That works, right? Who doesn’t want to eat a nice, big turkey and mashed potato meal when its 100 degrees out and then shimmy into a spandex swimsuit?! Just kidding…that’s not a pretty picture. But seriously. I […]
I missed writing last week –oops! Sorry about that…life got busy last week, and I just didn’t get any thoughts written down. I’ll just pretend that you took a week off from reading too, and here we are together again after vacation ; ) I finished up my Whole 30 challenge since we talked last […]
Christ is enough for me. I was praying about what to write about this week, and those words popped into my mind – the melody from the popular song played in my mind and I automatically started singing. But as I got to the phrase “Christ is enough for me” I stopped – is He […]
Dear Younger Me, I don’t have many regrets in my life, but if I could live the last 30 years over, these are the things I would want to understand sooner and remember every day: Don’t go through your life being worried or afraid and holding back — instead, be bold. Don’t be afraid to […]
Angel. What picture do you get in your mind when you hear the word “angel”? I know for me, at first, I get a picture of a chubby little, rosy-cheeked cherub with a bow and arrow and naked bum swaying in the heavenly breeze. He is always smiling, riding on clouds, and holding banners that […]
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23 Our pastor used a powerful visual this week at church — he placed three slides on the screens in succession. On each slide his picture was placed next to the image of a notorious felon — Adolf Hitler, Jeffrey Dahmer and […]
