Little tidbits about how I'm seeing the Lord work daily. Come on in!
On my 10-minute drive to work every day, I am met by many red lights. It's a short commute, for which I am grateful, but it often feels like I'm constantly stopping just to start again. My driving to work reflects what it would probably look like if I were to take back up running: [...]
Mother's Day is a really hard day for our clients at The Next Door. No mother wants to be away from their kids on Mother's Day, and we constantly remind our clients that by being in treatment they're taking steps to become the best mothers they can be moving forward. We had a church come [...]
Today I've been praying over Psalm 69. I just happened to flip open to this passage in Psalm, and I started journaling my own prayer from what I read. Here's my prayer for today: Save me from myself, Lord. There is no foothold for me to keep climbing without Your specific design for my next [...]
Yesterday I was driving back from Tuscaloosa to Nashville. I hate stopping while I'm driving whether it's for gas, to go to the bathroom, whatever it is. If I lose a few minutes on my ETA I feel so aggravated. As I was driving along yesterday, I turned off the GPS. I knew where I [...]
When you were born, one of the first questions asked about you was probably what your name would be. More than likely, your parents had thought long and hard about what they would call you. One of the few things we carry with us our entire lives is our names. They tell people who we [...]
Luke 1:26-38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Today is my birthday. Some people hate their birthdays, but I love mine. I’ll admit it, I love a day that’s all about me. And sometimes the other 364 days of the year look a little like my birthday: too [...]
Fall is my favorite. This is my third fall in Nashville and each year I am always in awe of the ways the leaves change and how the streets are covered in orange and red foliage. A few weeks ago I had a half-day of prayer for work. I went to one of my favorite [...]
Today, I had the day off from work. I’ve been working like crazy and all I wanted to do all day was be outside. So somehow I walked 7 miles, half of which I walked at Radnor Lake. This morning, I was listening to John Eldredge’s Pause app and it asked me to think about [...]
Dear friend going through sorority recruitment, I'm thinking about you and praying for you during this time. Every August, my mind always jumps to thoughts about those going through recruitment so soon. It's already crazy enough to be moving to a new city and beginning your college career, but to also throw in recruitment can [...]
We all can agree on the simple fact that 2020-2021 hasn't exactly been the season we planned or hoped for. We've lost people we loved. Jobs have been lost, hard decisions have been made, and often it feels like there's no gas left to put in our tanks. We're running on empty. I've been thinking [...]
