Even 30 Year Olds Throw Tantrums

I’ve been reading a lot of scripture lately.  I’ve been writing too.  A lot. Mostly because that’s how I release. I also like to release in worship (singing & dancing), crying, talking to friends, talking to spiritual mentors, etc… I process and process, release and release. And even if it gets excessive, I’m learning this… Continue reading Even 30 Year Olds Throw Tantrums

The Power in Stringz

Yesterday, after several weeks of procrastinating I finally went and got my eyebrows done. Now, normally I get them waxed but my wax guy didn’t have the equipment ready and so I was forced into another option. Threading. For all of my male readers, I will just warn you this post is super feminine so… Continue reading The Power in Stringz

Receiving the Blessings of Abraham

In my walk with Christ I have tended to stray from feeling entitled to be “blessed by God”.  I’ve been leery about “going after” His blessings or even desiring them. Mostly because of the “prosperity message” that has run rampant in the church.  For those who are not aware, this message is rooted and laced… Continue reading Receiving the Blessings of Abraham

The Final Test

I’ve been reading some old journals lately.  I’m so grateful that I didn’t burn them the way I wanted to last year.  Last year when I was heartbroken at the path Christ had called me to take.  When I was discouraged at the future that seemed so bleak.  Because in reading them, I can now… Continue reading The Final Test

Psalm 23

This weekend I lie in the Lord’s arms.  I cried out to Him and shared my turmoil.  From the depths of my soul I cried out.  And I heard His response.  He wants me to trust Him. The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.He makes me lie down in green pastureshe leads me beside… Continue reading Psalm 23

Girl Gone Noticed

Well now, 2014 has been a whirlwind of very unexpected activity.  And as the winds blew, I eagerly raised my wings and sailed on every layer of exciting current that I could possibly make contact with.  The experience of pursuit has been enlightening and also emotional.  Fear and anxiety play tug of war in my… Continue reading Girl Gone Noticed

Matters of the Heart

His interest took me by surprise, but I’m remaining open.  I’m uncharacteristically trying my hand at the less extreme side of thinks.  My personality type causes me to see things as black and white, right or wrong, husband or no husband.  But this narrow path with Christ has revealed far too many winding, dirt paved… Continue reading Matters of the Heart

An Ever Unfolding Testimony on Life, Love and Sexual Purity

Last year around this time I wrote about my testimony, which was this: Abstinence, Celibacy, Sexual Purity.  The Lord rewarded my obedience in this area by publishing it in a book compiled by a woman whose ministry is based on being a 30-something year old virgin.  Ultimately, she made it to her wedding night and… Continue reading An Ever Unfolding Testimony on Life, Love and Sexual Purity

Overcoming the Winter Seasons of Life

I looked at my phone and was surprised to see the message on the screen.  My friend shared some news about her current plight as a single parent of now 2.  Of course I called instead of replying via text because that’s what good friends do.  We don’t respond to such sensitive, weighty matters via text.… Continue reading Overcoming the Winter Seasons of Life
