About a month ago, we had goals weekend. During this weekend we were to set goals, personally and for our group. I set my goals weeks before because I felt inspired to do so then. Also, if you've read previous blogs, you know that was probably divine intervention because had I waited until Goals Weekend… Continue reading Goals are a road map

Has anyone seen hope?
I've been tasked with a...well a task. I have two weeks to come up with my story, or whatever story I'm supposed to tell to my group. To be fair, this was partially my idea, so I have no one to blame but myself. We're reading Remember God by Annie F. Downs. And I kind… Continue reading Has anyone seen hope?
I believe in evolution
Woah. Calm down. I was not about to get into some theological science debate when I made that title, but did it get your attention? What I mean to say is I believe in my evolution as a person, and yours too. I think if we are doing life right we are constantly analyzing and… Continue reading I believe in evolution
Still learning (again)
The end of the year always brings contemplation. What did we learn this year? What do we hope to do next year? As one of my people and I start planning our "Goals Weekend" for January (more on this later), I think it has made me think more about this year and where we're headed.… Continue reading Still learning (again)
Bless them Lord (and me too)
Here's a thing you might not know about me. For a season, I lived for the applause...like the literal tangible clapping. I loved dressing up and being someone I'm not and having people say, "hey, you're really good at that." When I first moved to Tulsa, I came off a 6 show straight run on… Continue reading Bless them Lord (and me too)
My heart is full
I don't have a whole lot to say. Chalk that up to absolute exhaustion. But right now, taking a break from all the things, it occurs to me that I haven't written lately. I have been doing the dreaded process of moving. I'm still working on the final process at my old house. Tomorrow though… Continue reading My heart is full
The thing about GRACE
I think I've said this before, but I asked God to give me a word for this season or year or whatever (basically until He gives me a new word likely) and that word was "grace". I've thought about what it means and how it applies to my life a lot. The dictionary gives one… Continue reading The thing about GRACE
Still breathing
I'm going to be honest (I mean I have always been here on this blog), 99% of the time I feel like I'm not good enough. There is that random 1% where I do something that I'm like yay! Go me! But in general, that's not the case. Because of my personality, that means my… Continue reading Still breathing
We’re all broken
Life is hard, friends. And, I think we make it harder sometimes. How many times have we been hurt by life's twists and turns? How many times have we tried really hard but not measured up? How many times have we just been flat out disappointed. Disappointment is a part of life. We're human. Our… Continue reading We’re all broken
Mine isn’t better, but it’s still good
I have a lot of really talented friends. Like really talented, y'all. One of my friends is an amazing singer. She was a vocal major in college. She teaches music. She sang amazing solos in church when I was growing up. I sing. I even sing well. I'm not an amazing singer though. Growing up… Continue reading Mine isn’t better, but it’s still good
