I come from a line of worry warts – my grandmother is a worrier, my mother is a worrier, and so by nature, you can probably guess that I would grow up to be one as well.
For a long while, I was. I used to worry so much that I couldn’t fall asleep at night. I would just lay there, thinking about everything that needed to be worried about for the following day – so much so that I could feel my heart pounding under the pressure. I would worry myself until I was upset, even while nothing was happening. Read the rest of this entry »

I must admit I have never thought of my season of singleness as a fruit-producing tree, that is until I read my devotional this morning. The focus of the devotional passage was to encourage Christians not to tire of waiting on your fruit-producing season. Read the rest of this entry »

Over the weekend, I watched The Book of Eli.
It was the story of a man, living during times that I would classify as the period of Tribulation.
He had nothing except what he could carry in a backpack and an unwavering, strong urge to keep walking West. Read the rest of this entry »

Have you ever wondered why the richest people on earth are the unhappiest? Have you ever wondered why even after you’ve acquired those items you’ve always wanted, soon after you find yourself wanting something else?
You got the house, now you want the best decor…you get the best decor, but when your neighbors redo their landscaping, suddenly you get an urge to visit the nearest Home Depot. You have to outdo them, you still want more. Read the rest of this entry »

I received an email the other day that really resonated with me. It’s an old email that’ s been passed around for quite some time, but it caught my attention because of a recent message I heard about sleepwalking through life which was very similar.

For those of you who followed me through the 40+ days of purpose, I hope you received a something that was a blessing to you. A lot has happened over the last month and a half and with that will come some changes to the blog as well.
I’m in the process of relocating out of state – very quickly within the next few weeks. During this slightly chaotic process, my posting schedule will need to be altered - so that I can keep my sanity. 
I’ll try to update the blog at least twice a week. If I can do more, I will. But I just wanted to let you know up front – I’m not abandoning this blog, just moving.
If you’d like to guest post here, consider this an official invite – use the contact form for submissions.
As the moving process gets underway, you’ll learn more about the details, so stay tuned.
