If you’re like me, you don’t like to wait. For anything. Being independent has always meant, if I want something, I get it done. I remember one day years ago, after listening to sermons on the musts in a believer’s life, I boldly prayed for patience. I know scary, right I thought at the time,…
YESTERDAY, TODAY & FOREVER
Do you ever read the Bible and think of how amazing those bible stories we believe really are? God telling Noah to build an ark with no rain. Moses leading the people through to the promised land. Joseph going from a pit to the palace. Crazy, impossible stories fill the foundation of our faith. It’s…
STRONG & COURAGEOUS
Do you ever sit back in amazement of God’s promises? I mean in a world of uncertainty, we have such certainty. From Genesis to Revelation he gives us constant assurance of the great God we serve. He is the ruler of the universe, yet he is working in every detail of our lives. One of…
SWEET TALKING IDOLS
Back in the biblical day, idols referred to large golden statues like a bull or calf or other gods. Such as buddhas that people worshipped, instead of the one true God. That culture in scripture doesn’t really apply to us now. In our modern-day, it is easy for us believers to think,” I don’t have…
DIVINE EXCHANGE
Have you ever been to the airport and thought to yourself, “Next time, I’ll pack lighter?” Especially, if you’re like me and travel cross country. All that loading, carrying, and lugging around becomes tiresome. Or do you notice that every time you move, you get rid of more and keep less? Like, “why do I…
COSTLY LEMONADE
Everyone loves the taste of freshly squeezed lemonade. I know, I sure do. Not the artificially flavored powder that is mixed with water but the real deal. No one though wants to sit there and hand squeeze the juice out of each lemon. It’s hard work, time-consuming and it takes quite a bit to make…
ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE
Yes I know, it is difficult to have a great attitude in our current day. As soon as we turn on the tv or check the internet, it confirms that our world is in desperate need of a Savior. Then having to reflect on personal challenges, can make it difficult to feel thankful. Chin up,…
PURIFY MY HEART
Growing up a church girl, I was never a David fan. I flat out didn’t like Him. The unfaithful, the murderer. He already had 8 wives, yet he took the only thing His most loyal servant, Uriah treasured. Furthermore, Uriah was the man willing to die for Him who would not leave His side, but…
PURPOSE DRIVEN FRIENDS
I love making new friends, in fact it’s always been easy for me. Friends of all different walks in life. From the adventurous water rafting and camping friend, the princess friend, the tomboy friend and the childhood friend. We naturally choose our friends based on interests, likes, personality meshes and similar seasons. For me, it…
NO MIDDLE MAN
Everyone that knows me, knows my love for Trader Joe’s. I’m always reppin’. Not only do they carry innovative, hard-to-find, great-tasting foods, but it’s also cost-friendly. Early on, I was amazed by how they were able to become so successful. I mean no matter where I go, coast to coast, the store is always packed…
