Always Trying to Fix, Solve, and Find Cause and Solution
I 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 because of trying to be…

Trusting My Intuition
I 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 what they share in podcasts…

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. I would see all of these people who lived on a homestead, made everything from scratch, and rarely left home. They would call it “the simple life.” It seemed beautiful from afar. It seemed…

Slowing Down, Savoring, and Prioritizing
I 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 that I can’t control is…

Control: Surrender and Letting Go
I’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 about what I’ve been trying…

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 a bit but was struggling……

Feeling a Little Scattered
This 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 did The Carry workout that’s…

Our Limits Tell Us Important Things About Ourselves
Today was such a life-giving day! It was just what I needed. It started with some quality time with Jesus and time with the boys before they went to school. I made homemade whole wheat pumpkin banana muffins for the boys and me. So good! I had therapy at 10:00, and it was incredibly helpful.…

Leaning On the Everlasting Arms (of Jesus)
This week has been hard. Sunday, I was so depressed. I had physical exhaustion from it. I took a hike with Robert thinking that it would help, but instead, I got more exhausted. I worked that afternoon, and it took every ounce of energy to do that. I made it through with God’s Grace. Something…
