  • So, I haven’t blogged much lately and I’ve had so many people who have asked what’s been going on. Nothing. Which is why I haven’t blogged. My life started to get scary normal and I lost the inspiration to write. Well, just when I thought I’d never encounter the craziness again, everything went back to…

  • If ever there has been a crazy week, it was this one. It started by being hit with a wrecking ball and flowed into a day of sun at the lake with one of my best friends. Despite the fact that I got severely sunburned, I had one of the most relaxing and fun days…

  • “I love the things that, without explanation, you know in your gut and feel in your bones.” I tweeted that today and found that it’s one of those statements that sticks with you. I am always asking for answers, always asking for some kind of explanation or profound wisdom to fall upon me. I find…

  • Written this morning: Sunlight beaming in my window, I am smiling at all I’m seeing about Jesus today. He daily changes the way I see. Today, I’m loving the view. As I sit in this morning light, I hear the quiet love that whispers, “I’ll stay”. I recall the days in which the excitement was…

  • Forgive my absence. It’s not that I don’t think about this blog often, I just haven’t had much to say lately. Today, that changes. Here’s a peek at my life and what God is doing. Never before has a week held more clarity and yet been filled with things I can’t even begin to understand.…

  • If I had to describe my day in two words it would be: mostly silent. I spent several hours painting today. Now, I’m not going to lie, I paint like a four year old. And I’m not being humble. I really sincerely cannot draw or paint to save my life, but I continue to do…

  • Romans 8:38: “And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.” Tonight, I found a reason to search that scripture out. News of…

  • Panera once again serves as the place of my most recent people watching fiasco. There I am, sitting alone, eating my soup and sandwich when I notice the sad stares of a table full of men. I’m willing to bet anything they design video games or nuclear weapons, or both. Anyway, this table full of…

  • I find these days to be extremely quiet. Spent driving and listening to soft music in the background, I don’t find myself singing along as I normally would. I don’t even find my mind wandering with thoughts. I just am. I’m one hundred percent in the moment, mouth quiet and thoughts stilled. I hear nothing…

  • I love early mornings like this. It’s 3 am and the Lord has been taking me back through old journals. I’ve laughed, cried.. but mostly laughed. One of my favorite entries was one from Mexico and this is literally what it says: “God, I have no idea what to even write…. ok, well I feel…
