Take a few minutes to ponder on that question…are you content? I can imagine your thoughts wandering and pinging back and forth between yes and no…Maybe settling on one or the other, but pondering the different areas of your life: your health, your relationships, your career, your family, your marriage, your finances… While I thinkContinue reading “Are You Content?”

Everything is Meaningless
While many people hate and bash on New Years and setting goals, I personally love it. I think it’s a healthy and helpful holiday where we can take time to reflect on what the last year looked like and come up with tangible and reasonable things we can do to make ourselves more healthy andContinue reading “Everything is Meaningless”
A Covering
The older I get, the more and more I realize just how cool plants are. I’m not quite what I’d call a crazy plant lady, but the more and more I learn about plants, the more I see how full of analogies and lessons plants are. The other day as I was on a walk,Continue reading “A Covering”
Something is Always Blooming…
Every summer my family takes a trip down to spend a week in Florida, which has become a really special time and place for us as we make more and more memories there each year. In reflecting on the trip we just took, I wanted to share a lesson from my great-Grandma Sara that hasContinue reading “Something is Always Blooming…”
Rooted in Christ: I Hope You Dance
Ed and I were blessed to have gotten to go on a little get away trip this weekend. The trip was originally planned for his birthday over a month ago, but the weather had different plans for us that weekend. We were very excited to finally go to this secluded cabin, as we were eagerContinue reading “Rooted in Christ: I Hope You Dance”
Because I Said So…
Because I said so. When I type the words above, the first thing I think of is that my teachers always told me to never start a sentence with because. Then I actually start to think about the words themselves and the times I’ve heard them either spoken to me or when I’ve felt entitledContinue reading “Because I Said So…”
The Waiting Game…
Something so lost in our society today is the ability to wait. We are so used to getting everything so quickly, with Amazon packages on our doorstep within 2 days of ordering, food coming right out of the drive-thru window within a few minutes with hardly any work on our part, and possibly the worstContinue reading “The Waiting Game…”
The Protection of Peace
A word that I’ve noticed coming up a lot lately, especially with the Christmas season upon us, is peace. As this word peace keeps coming up, I’ve been thinking a lot about it. As Philippians 4:7 and many other verses in the Bible tell us, peace is something that we always have access to andContinue reading “The Protection of Peace”
Taking the Long Route: What’s Your Egpyt?
This morning was one of those times where a verse just spoke RIGHT to my heart as I was reading the story of the Israelites leaving their captivity in Egypt and crossing the Red Sea. After being slaves in Egypt for over 430 years, the Israelites are finally leaving and no longer slaves…something they’d beenContinue reading “Taking the Long Route: What’s Your Egpyt?”
Great Unknown: Faith Without Borders
If you have 9 minutes and 36 seconds of time that you could set aside, I would so encourage you to just be still and listen to this song. I know for me and many others it’s a familiar one, but the words just hit differently for me this time and I have a feelingContinue reading “Great Unknown: Faith Without Borders”
