Embracing Hope for the Future:
Life is an extraordinary journey, full of ups and downs, immense joy and painful regrets…but I have found that most people, when asked if they’d actually go back and change anything, they initially laugh & begin to quickly process those defining moments across time…only to pause and say with somber wisdom in their voices, “Actually,…

Fountains & Drains
Years ago, after a short interaction with another lady, my friend turned to me and said, “I love her to pieces…but she absolutely drains me sometimes.” I didn’t fully understand what she meant, at the time, but the thought lingered. Of course, I tend to overthink everything and I’m a chronic people-pleaser, so I obviously…

Setting The Pace
As the seasons change and everything begins to feel different, it’s been glaringly obvious that our summertime routine just isn’t going to work for us in this new, slower season. As many of our regular activities are coming to an end and our time spent outside is becoming less already, I am forced to pause,…

Abortion Resources
Many have asked for a sharable list of Abortion related resources. I included many of these at the bottom of my post-abortion post, but this post will serve as quick reference for all of those and more! Please feel free to comment on this post with any suggested additions. I will gladly check them out…

Hindsight and Mental Health – My Story
I always find it so humbling every time I see this memory come back around on my Facebook feed. It was posted in August 2010, during a very pivotal time in my life. A time of absolute uncertainty that felt hopeless at the time. But it is very clear now that God knew the plan…

Who He says I am
“I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I’m not enough. Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up. Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low? Remind me once again just who I am because I need to know. You say I am loved when…

A Candle in the Darkness
Life has tried to beat me down lately. True statement. I always feel things deeply and personally, sometimes before big things even take place. It’s hard to explain how I can have a dream or even just a thought, and immediately feel these emotions before I even know what they mean. I do know that…

I Feel Pretty….If….
Hello friends! So this past week I have spent a lot of intentional time with my 7 year old daughter. If you all read my first entry, you remember that my relationship with my daughter has not been an easy one. We have had to work at it and I’ve prayed daily for the right…

Knowing When To Say No…
Last week’s post was a bit different because I decided to post a video instead of taking the time to sit down and type out my thoughts. I wanted to make sure to post it here for those who do not follow my Facebook page yet and may have missed the video. 🙂 (Follow this…

Relationship Power
I’ve struggled a bit to share this realization that God showed me several months ago, simply because it is one that really hit close to home for me and many of my family members. I pray that sharing this isn’t taken the wrong way, but I feel that God placed it on my heart to…

The Better Mom
So, if you read my very first entry titled, “Embracing Grace” you know how this all came to be. The Lord put this on my heart about 3 weeks ago and He has continued to confirm it in so many ways over the past 3 weeks. I’ve never felt more secure about a decision in…

Picture Perfect
As I sit here on my back deck, coffee in hand, studying the book of Acts, I noticed out of the corner of my eye, the sunrise peeking over the treeline. I looked up to admire it but my sight was immediately blocked by my lovely view of the camper we have parked in the…

Embracing Grace
I’ve been trying to find the words (and the time) to share my amazing testimony of how God really showed Himself to me and what initially inspired me to start this blog, but I keep putting it off. Not because I don’t want to share, because I literally feel like I’m bursting at the seams…
