Little tidbits about how I'm seeing the Lord work daily. Come on in!
"I need answers." That's a phrase I've said over and over during the past year to God, to friends, to family, to anyone really. I need answers why cancer happens or why mass shootings occur or why things don't work out like I intended. "I need answers, God." I've asked kindly. I've asked firmly. Still [...]
My boyfriend and I decided to meet in the middle this weekend for a day trip to Huntsville. I was in charge of finding a coffee shop; he was in charge of planning and finding an activity for our date. He thought it would be fun for us to go to the U.S. Space and [...]
Do you ever just get an itch to clean out your entire house? I'm not talking just shuffling the clutter around and giving yourself the impression that everything is neat except it's all just shoved in various drawers. (It's me, hi, I'm the problem it's me.) I got home from Christmas break and said no [...]
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 [...]
Do you ever think about the faith you had as child? The faith you had in your parents to take care of you; the faith you had in Jesus to be your Lord and Savior; the faith you had in some consistency in schedule with school, family, etc. Or maybe you had none of that. Maybe over time you grew to lack faith in your family or didn’t begin to know Jesus from a young age.
Every six months, my department has a half day of prayer offsite individually. A few weeks ago I had my first half day of prayer with work. I wasn’t sure what it would be like, praying for 4 hours consecutively. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before. I had been looking forward to it [...]
Something about the change of a year brings us hope. 2021 feels brighter. The first day of the year was an oddly sunny, warm day in Nashville. I can feel my spirit shift and my gaze is set on the fresh, new, shiny year. In reality, it is just another day in the story that [...]
366 verses talking about fear are included in the Bible. Did you know that? God cares so deeply about the details that He included 366 verses, one for each day, about not fearing. God weaves the story for His people so intricately, make no mistake about it. I'm a sucker for details. I think they're [...]
November was honestly a dark month. Does anyone else feel that way? The election felt really heavy. Waking up every day checking the news became an addiction. The reality that COVID-19 had been a part of our lives for well over 8 months began to really sink in. I hit a wall. Another month of [...]
