Truly Living Wild and Free and What that Really Means for Me
We are currently in the car, driving from one place in Texas to the next place that we are visiting. We will be in the car a lot while we are here, but I’m enjoying my time! For the past many days, I have had a long anxiety about this trip. No reason, really, except…

He Has Good Plans
The past week or so, I have made some decisions that I have been praying about for a bit. I’ve been patient for the first time in forever to allow Him to reveal to me what He wants. Asking for wisdom and discernment has meant so much more to me these days. I have seen…

You Stepped into My Egypt
We weren’t able to go to church this past Sunday because Robert is on call this week. He has to be at all meals when we have guests, and we had guests for breakfast and lunch on Sunday. It’s pretty rare for us to miss church these days, and I’m so grateful. Our church is…

Learning to Focus on What Matters- Just Showing Up
This morning, I woke up to a message from a friend. She sent me a post from one of her running friends, and it was honestly life changing. It wasn’t necessarily anything new, but for some reason, it hit different. I had been thinking about not focusing on races for a bit because I was…

Just Grateful- Always Wanting to Share My Story
It’s so interesting to look back on the past several years knowing that I had ZERO idea where I would be today… physically and mentally/emotionally. (also literally in a whole new state) When I talk with people who I just recently met, it’s so hard to explain to them where I’ve come from and who…

So Much Growth
I’ve been learning so much about myself through the good and the hard things. I think that’s the way life goes… there are always going to be hard things to learn and grow through. If I’ve learned anything, it’s that life is a roller-coaster… and honestly, I’m learning to be okay with that. Without the…

Healing Isn’t Linear- An Update About Our Beautiful Life
I have been pretty busy these days, so blogging hasn’t come so easily. I will sit down to write, then I get distracted because I have other things to focus on. I think this is a good thing, though. I don’t have a lot of “sit around” time. This blog has always just been my…

Life Lately
This week has been super busy. I had some sort of plan (or more than one thing planned) every day this week. I was really nervous going into the week, but it turned out to be a very great week! My last several posts have been processing through things, and I feel like now I’m…

What is my motive?
Anyone who knows me knows that I tend to overthink the majority of the time. After my last post about allowing myself to “just be,” I have been working hard at doing that. I have had a week and a half of processing that, what it means for me, and how to live that out…

Learning to Control the Chaos in My Head
I feel like I’ve lost sight of a lot the past week or two. Last year (especially in the fall), my relationship with Jesus grew to a whole new level. I was spending time with Him every single morning without fail… praying for a long time, spending time in His Word, and worshiping Him. I would worship…
