1 Corinthians 7:32 But I want you to be without care. He who is unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord. But he who is married cares about the things of the world, how he may please his wife. There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The… Continue reading Tis’ Better to be Single…Right?

Valentine’s Day: From a Single’s Perspective
Well it’s that time again…V-Day. Every year it catches me off guard. I know there are many singles who dread the approaching holiday year after year and it’s on their radar as early as January. There are many who cringe at the various business advertisements pushing their product of flowers, candy, and the standard teddy… Continue reading Valentine’s Day: From a Single’s Perspective
Crying Out
At the prompting of a fellow sister in Christ I am reading Nehemiah. This story touches me on many levels and speaks to the magnificence of Christ. I am moved by Nehemiah’s sensitivity to the heart of God and his desire to act on what he knows to be true. He was not just a… Continue reading Crying Out
Plenty of Fish…
I had a really good and refreshing conversation with a brother in Christ the other day about relationships. Not the awkward kind where you kind of like the person and so you’re really picking their brain to see how they feel about you. No ulterior motive, just pure curiosity. And what I learned from this… Continue reading Plenty of Fish…
Online Dating, (The Verdict is In) & A Marriage Proposal
So, I cancelled my membership today for the online dating site I joined last month. It’s been almost 30 days and nothing. No emails, no instant messages, nothing. Now, I did get one “smile” from a guy…that’s the site’s ways of someone kinda testing the waters and seeing if you’re interested. But I will just… Continue reading Online Dating, (The Verdict is In) & A Marriage Proposal
Let It Snow!
Today it snowed. I can’t remember the last time it waited this long to snow in Cleveland. Last winter was definitely a mild one and I don’t think anyone expected to have another mild one back to back, but hey, if God wants to prove us wrong, let Him! Now, normally I dread seeing the white stuff. To me,… Continue reading Let It Snow!
True Love
But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she. . . . The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars… Continue reading True Love
When the Going Get’s Tough…
I’ve never quit anything in my life. Ever. And I know you’re not supposed to say “never” or “always” because there are very few absolutes in this life. But I can say pretty confidently that this statement is true for me,. Even still, today was a challenge to hold on to this conviction. My freshman year of… Continue reading When the Going Get’s Tough…
Bonhoeffer
I’ve been reading Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s biography written by Eric Metaxas. Bonhoeffer. Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy. It’s been very enjoyable thus far. I’m only a little more than a tenth of the way in (it’s a 600+ page book so I’m taking my time) but I find myself falling in love with the journey of Bonhoeffer. … Continue reading Bonhoeffer
Online Dating: The Verdict is Still Out
So I did it. I joined millions of Americans and signed up on an online dating site. Now this is not my first time…actually it’s my 3rd in all honesty. But this is the first time I didn’t feel like I was stepping out of God’s will. The other 2 times I knew that is… Continue reading Online Dating: The Verdict is Still Out
