There, but for the grace of God, go I…
I was doomed. Destined for destruction. Bound by sin. Ensured a lifetime of bondage, chains, struggle and pain. But, the grace of God came down, took on flesh and set me free. The beauty of this truth is that it not only sets me free from bondage to sin but it helps me offer grace to tho [...]
What 30 Year Old Me Would Tell 20 Year Old Me
Getting older is harder on the body but so much easier on the soul. I don't recover from days of little sleep as easily, I can't fit back into my "skinny" jeans by just running and eating well for a week, I require two to three cups of coffee instead of just one and a nice, quiet [...]
DON’T SETTLE
I'm sitting in my bed eating Pei Wei and watching Celebrity Apprentice while my hubby is feeding, bathing and putting the kids to bed. The best part? None of this was my idea. My thoughtful man knew I was battle weary from all my mommy duties and emailed me this morning to ask how he could serve m [...]
Christian Sororities
I get asked all the time if I think it's a good idea to go the sorority or Christian sorority route. The truth is, I just don't know! That is between you and the Lord. What I can offer is advice from my own experience. So, here you go!
Foul Language
Not a post about f-bombs, swear words or any other colorful four letter wonders. This one is about a different kind of foul language. The ugly, inaccurate kind we use when we talk about God. Especially on my mind is the magic genie language. I do it and I'm guessing you're guilty of it, too. It's [...]
What I Read in 2012
Disclaimer: I don't read nearly as much as I should. Are you with me? I know only a handful of avid readers that knock out 20 books a year but I am just not one of those people. I think I read 5 this year. I'm going to tell you about my three favorites below. The other two included a John Grisham bo [...]
Savoring the New Testament in 2012
2011. Wow. It's honestly kind of a blur. A wonderful blur but a blur nonetheless. Our wonderfully sweet and strikingly beautiful Lydia was born March 30th of 2011 and as of April 1st, everything got a little hazy! We love this precious beauty but spent the first seven months of her life sleeping [...]
Eat Up!
I spent some time in Psalm 119 this morning and was challenged and encouraged by the writer's affection and desire for the Word of God. Here are a few things he said about it:
I open my mouth and pant, because I long for your [...]
Call Me Before You Pack Your Bags
Six weeks into my freshman year and I was ready to go home. The excitement was wearing off and the stress was setting in. The fun of everything new was gone and all I wanted was something old, something familiar, something normal. Erie, PA was a long way away from my Texas home and I was tired [...]
The Blessing of Sleepless Nights
The last three months have been the most physically demanding and emotionally exhausting of my life. Our sweet Lydia was born with a milk protein allergy that has caused her a great deal of tummy issues. I’m thankful to be able to put a name to it now because the eight weeks we spent trying t [...]
