When I started this blog several months ago, I did it because God told me too. It felt like something important was happening in my life, and I needed to write about it. I can't journal in the traditional paper and pen kind of way. I've tried many times. But I quit. Every. Time. So… Continue reading Who He is today

It’s hard to fix a heart
This day. Nothing in particular happened. I spent it finishing an audio book (because that's all that's available yet) of Remember God by Annie F. Downs. Y'all. It's so good. And yet it hurt my heart a little. Let's be fair. The book itself didn't hurt my heart. It made me realize that my heart… Continue reading It’s hard to fix a heart
I can’t be brave
Y'all...I literally find myself in a weird place. I'm completely unable to commit in one area of my life. Some of you may be like, "and? I never commit." The thing is it's weird. I commit. I commit to all the things. I like commitment. It's permanent and settled and means things happen. And, I… Continue reading I can’t be brave
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
Taking a time out
Yesterday was Sunday. It was a busy Sunday. I think that's how Sunday's tend to be if you're involved in your church. At the end of Sunday (well, let's be real...in the middle of Sunday) I realized I was tired in all the ways. My body was tired of course. (I mean I had a… Continue reading Taking a time out
Addendum to last post
Lol. I dunno but it's my blog so I can. After I posted I was looking at some flowers. They are pretty, and weird, and made me think of something I wanted to share. These flowers have intrigued me for about 3 days. They randomly showed up one night when I got home from work… Continue reading Addendum to last post
Follow the plan
Timehop is a fun app for iPhone that lets you look back and be reminded of things you posted about. Sometimes it's interesting to see what journeys you've gone through. The last couple of weeks have been full of things (from 7 years ago) about hospitals, operations and cancer. Not the most awesome memories. 7… Continue reading Follow the plan
What if…
I grew up hearing, if you are worried about something, give it to God. If you want something, ask God. God has plans for you. I want to be perfectly honest and admit I had/have plans for me too. What if God's plan for my life is different than my plan for my life? What… Continue reading What if…
Struggle
I am gonna be perfectly honest. This week has been a struggle. I don't even know why. Sometimes I think maybe it's the busyness of life that just starts to be too much. Sometimes I just need a time out, but there's no time for time outs. It's hard in a season where you're supposed… Continue reading Struggle
Excellence not perfection
I've realized something about myself recently, or God has brought it to my attention. I'm not good with grace. I mean I'm pretty good extending grace to others. I forgive other people's mistakes pretty easily. Sure I get annoyed or upset with people sometimes (because that's human) but it doesn't take much for me to… Continue reading Excellence not perfection
