Are You Drinking Your Water
I’ve debated for a while whether I would share this. But knew only when the time became right. As it’s been on my heart all week, I believe it is time and I’m sharing in the hopes it will help someone else. Around two months ago I had a health episode. I hadn’t been feeling […]
Are You Drinking Your Water?
I’ve debated for a while whether I would share this. But knew only when the time became right. As it’s been on my heart all week, I believe it is time and I’m sharing in the hopes it will help someone else. Around two months ago I had a health episode. I hadn’t been feeling […]
One More Step
Have you ever wanted to give up and throw in the towel because what you are doing is incredibly difficult? I came to the conclusion recently that I wanted to be a runner. Apparently this has been an on and off desire for many years. Somehow I had made up in my mind that in […]
Life More Abundantly
As each year begins, I start asking God for a word for the year, and sometimes because I’ve forgotten mid-year, I’ve taken to start writing it down in the front of my journal when I know my word. The word for this year is ‘Abundance’. Oftentimes, as I have the word, I have no idea […]
Fear is a Liar
This past week was filled with many pool days. And, many learned lessons, of which I’ll share a few that were highlighted for me. As we were hanging out in the deep end (yay for progress), a cute little boy jumped into the lane. As I’m an overly cautious mother, I said ‘little boy, can […]
Fresh Perspective?
I’m sitting in my backyard and wondering why I never did this before. As I want to get annoyed with myself I realize a few things. I never made the time. I was always busy. But even more importantly, my backyard was not what it is now. Over the last few years of living here, […]
Meaningful Connection
I’ve mentioned in my last few posts that I sense God calling me to slow down. In a very unusual occurrence, I started pondering a solo trip. For reference, the last time I took a solo (non business) trip was 11 years ago for 24 hours, before I became a mom. I enjoy traveling with […]
Be Encouraged
I recently stumbled across an article in the NYTimes about a runner who was not the traditional runner. He was running a marathon and going very slowly. Someone on the sidelines yelled out a derogatory comment about how slow he was (power of words). Instead of being discouraged by what was said, he used it […]
Words Have Power
My girlfriend and I have been discussing just how much our words have power and I continue to see examples of just how true this is. There is a verse found in Proverbs 18:21 ‘The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit’. A young lady […]
Use What You Have
‘Use what you have’… These words have been on my mind for the last few weeks. I tend to want to solve something by going out and getting the next thing. Lately, I’ve been feeling like the Lord is calling me to slow down. I really thought I had slowed down significantly over the last […]
