So I have this habit, I like to overdress. Yes, I admit it- a friend likes to say I overdress for every occasion. Think sequins and pearls at a fast food joint (hence the fact one of my foster brothers called me Shiny). Anyway, it’s just one of those things that make me, me. Like almost always carrying a camera and loving to go barefoot but owning a bunch of
5 Ways To Go After Your Dreams With Purpose
Since I can remember I’ve been a creative, and a dreamer. Even now I have many ideas going through mind, on a daily basis. It’s amazing how God created us with such a vivid imagination that gives us a vision to accomplish His will. Although as a wife, mom and full-time homemaker, I have many responsibilities that take precedence over my ideas, but that doesn’t mean my dreams are in
Let the Lord’s Wisdom Be Our Guide
Last night I sat with my husband and watched a movie. It was no ordinary movie, it was a documentary. While I did not agree with everything that was brought up in it, it did cause me to think and consider a lot of things. In the movie, the narrator has a problem and has no idea how to solve it. Instead of trying to do it himself, he searches
Starting the Week Right with Wisdom
It’s the first day of the week and if your like me, you are thinking of all the things that you have to do. The laundry needs to be washed in preparation for the week ahead. The menu needs to be planned. The bathrooms need a refreshing, but guess what?! Our minds need a refreshing too. As we look at all that has been set before us this week, the
Feed Yourself
From the time you were conceived and growing in your mother’s womb, you have been fed, nurtured, and loved. As you grew into a tiny person, everyone awaited your arrival — longing to see who God had created and knitted together in your mother’s womb. On the day of your arrival, you cried, you smiled, you ate, you slept, and you cuddled–bringing joy to everyone around you. For many months,
A Reason to Celebrate
Today is my birthday! When we are young, we look forward to celebrating our special day with cupcakes, balloons, and friends. We make a wish for things that we hope will “come true” in the near future. I’ve noticed that some people feel less like celebrating as they get older. In fact, our culture reinforces this by using phrases such as “over the hill.” We see ads for anti-aging creams
Critical Condition
Crash! Flashing lights. Wailing sirens. The news reports say you’re in critical condition — two words no one wants to hear when describing a loved one — an only child, a beloved son. Your condition is critical — in need of monitoring, constant care, attention to detail, and fervent prayers. Your status needs an upgrade, but doctors say it will take a miracle. We are praying for a miracle —
New Beginnings
Each fall teachers and students get to have a fresh start. After a summer break it’s a chance to reset, make new goals and try again (no matter how tough the last year was). I work in a county that begins school after Labor Day weekend, so in just a few days students and teachers will fill the hallways of schools in our area. On this day I will begin
Don’t Get Lost In the Hype
I am thinking of where I should start with this post, but I’m just going to jump right into it. As bloggers, women, wives, mothers, sisters, friends, dreamers…you name it, we all want to be our best. No one wants to miss the thing that God has for them in life. No one wants to watch the next person write that book, sing that song, grow that blog, or ______(fill
Start the Week Strong- Surrender
Many times we feel like we are losing in life because we are surrendering unknowingly to the enemy. When we choose to worry and are full of fear, we are surrendering to the enemy. When we give up on our God-given passions and assignments in life, we are surrendering to the enemy. The only way to win in life is to surrender to God over and over. Salvation is the
