Little tidbits about how I'm seeing the Lord work daily. Come on in!
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 [...]
I work at an addiction treatment center and it’s pretty much my favorite place in the entire world. Women walk through our doors to receive the help they need. None of them look alike. None of them have the same story, but they have a common thread: addiction wreaking havoc on their lives. I’ve had [...]
I haven't really felt like writing lately honestly. I haven't felt like I have had anything worthy of saying and each time I went to write over the past month or so it just felt phony. Nothing has been particularly wrong, but nothing has been particularly right either. Nashville hasn't really felt like home lately. [...]
Yesterday, I was driving back to Nashville from Tifton. Along the way, I was surprised to see snow about 2 hours outside of Nashville. It covered the ground in its snowy, white magic and the trees were dusted with a thin layer of white and it felt really magical. But about 30 minutes into the [...]
I am a black belt in tae kwon do. Well, I became one when I was 9 years old, so I feel like it still counts. Throughout the two year process of becoming a black belt, we slowly received different color belts. White, yellow, green, blue, red, etc. Piece by piece we became a little [...]
As some of you know, I recently started working full-time for a non-profit. I love what they do and how they empower women in their recovery. The battle against addiction is hard and scary and for some it’s really lonely. I’m so excited to be cheering on the women in our facility as they are [...]
I've heard people talk about having a word for the year, but that's not something I've ever really thought about or done. But 2020 makes ya rethink some things. So I sat down and thought about what I wanted 2021 to look like. What do I want it to be full of? What do I [...]
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 [...]
A. MUST. READ! Wow. I've been in a bit of a book slump the past month. I read "City of Girls" over Thanksgiving break and just didn't love it at all. After that, I just did not feel like reading. Then, I got this book and MAN it got me fired up! I love how [...]
