Are You Content?
When I can’t be out and about, I watch YouTube. I’ve finally discovered how to use my smart tv after many years of owning it (please don’t ask after how many years)… Yesterday as I was home due to the impending bad weather, I turned on YouTube. I’m not a big tv show watcher, nor […]
It’s Going to Get Worse Before it Gets Better
This was the thought that came to me as I was asking God for relief of my driving anxiety: ‘it’s going to get worse before it gets better’. What kind of response is that? That’s definitely not what I wanted to hear. Have you ever been in a situation and you’re crying out for help, […]
A New Sippy Cup
Did I tell you my daughter is obsessed with containers? Whenever we go into stores, she looks at food containers, water bottles, and anything that will house something else. On one of our most recent Target trips, she saw a sippy cup. Mind you, this sippy cup is for a toddler. She had birthday money […]

Seeing Closed Doors as a Gift?
Don’t you hate when doors are closed in front of you? I was reading a devotion this morning and it talked about when some doors were closed, many times unexpectedly, and you started worrying about what you would do next. Sometimes, we are ready for these chapters/doors to be closed. But oftentimes, it catches us […]
God’s Planning Supersedes Mine
Have you ever been nervous or anxious about something you know God has already promised to take care of for you? That’s where I found myself a few days ago. You know how I like to plan, and as I’m planning for where I am and where I think I need to be, I started […]
Lessons From My Adventures
Happy Fourth of July! This week, I had the pleasure of going on some adventures, and I want to share with you some of the brief lessons. 1. On our way to our first stop, we left later than we anticipated and stopped more frequently than we planned. We thought we knew approximately how long […]
Chase God, Not Goals
In my very early days of starting to write, I kept coming across this verse of scripture: Matthew 6:33 NIV ‘But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.’ I’ve since added verse 34 ‘Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about […]
