Continue reading →: AcceptanceI feel like I’m coming into a new phase of life. The past few days during my prayer journaling, I have just felt God’s presence and peace in new ways. I shared these things on Facebook, but I’m going to expand on them here. I’m learning that it’s okay to…

Continue reading →: Always Trying to Fix, Solve, and Find Cause and SolutionI have been doing some processing the past few days. I have been having more anxiety lately, and I have been trying to control it. I honestly thought quitting sodas and social media would take care of it. But nothing has changed. In fact, I think I’m feeling more anxious…

Continue reading →: Trusting My IntuitionI absolutely love this book (Re-Connected). I’m almost finished listening to it and plan to buy it to re-read and take notes. I’ve been thinking through this a lot the past few days. I tend to find some “experts” and latch onto what they say about everything. I hyper-focus on…

Continue reading →: What Does “Simple Living” Look Like for Us?I’ve been seeking simplicity for years, but I didn’t really even know what that meant until recently. I thought I knew.

Continue reading →: Slowing Down, Savoring, and PrioritizingI am a human being, not a human doing. I’ve heard this many times lately, and it’s slowly sticking. Exhaustion is a reminder that always going and seeking perfection isn’t what we have been called to. Trusting God is the ultimate way to receive peace. Loosening my grip on things…

Continue reading →: Control: Surrender and Letting GoI’ve had a lot on my mind. I’m going to share a bit of it, but I’m still processing some things. Jesus and I had a good talk this morning. I shared with him how I’m burned out from trying to control things all the time. I shared with Him…

Continue reading →: Seasons Change…Seasons are changing… and life has come full circle for our family. These past few weeks/months have been a roller coaster. I guess that’s life. We put the boys in school in August. I dropped Karis off 7.5 hours away at her university the next day. I was working quite…

Continue reading →: Teach Me To AbideI’ve mentioned this before, but the theme of surrender keeps coming up over and over again. One thing I’ve learned lately is that even when I think I know what’s going to happen and when I think I have a plan, God always reminds me that He is the one…

Continue reading →: Feeling a Little ScatteredThis week has been kind of crazy. I guess that’s life. I started feeling bad about a week ago. I’m sure that it started as bad allergies, but it has developed into a pretty bad sinus infection. And I worked a lot of active hours through it all. Saturday, I…
