So this time last year I was meeting my guy for our first date which just so happened to be on V Day. We went ice skating and it was something out of one of those sappy Lifetime movies (which are BTW now on Netflix!). My eyes fell on him and he was gorgeous. We… Continue reading One Year Later: V Day

When Settling Seems to be the Only Option
Dear Lady in Waiting, In a sense I’m writing to both you and myself, because, after all I am also waiting. I know what it’s like to wait, in more ways than one. I know what it’s like to walk down the aisle of a wedding, only to go to your designated position as bridesmaid… Continue reading When Settling Seems to be the Only Option
Learning From Lady Wisdom
I held my IPhone 6 at a distance and spoke into the earbuds that were connected. I rarely hold the handset to my ear out of pure laziness and will usually have it on speaker. If I’m mobile while talking (or being extra lazy) I’ll use the earbuds. I sat on the comfy brown sofa… Continue reading Learning From Lady Wisdom
The Truth About “The Promise”
I’m in a prayer group for women who are standing on the Lord’s promise to bring them the man He has chosen for them. Wow, just typing that first sentence makes me feel super vulnerable! I never want people to think I’m “thirsty” or “weak” in this area, but I’m finding the balance with being… Continue reading The Truth About “The Promise”
Prayer for Grace
Father, We are pressed on every side. We are stretched and we are pruned and we feel very much at ends. No we are not persecuted in the outward way as so many were who have gone before us. Or even our brothers who live overseas and know the penalty for being called Yours. We… Continue reading Prayer for Grace
Are You Calling Me A Time Waster Jesus???
The definition of efficiency: Able to accomplish something with the least waste of time and effort; competency in performance. Efficiency, had you asked me prior to today, is one of my greatest strengths. To get things done. To accomplish. Make things happen. Then why did I receive 3 different messages from 3 different sources encouraging… Continue reading Are You Calling Me A Time Waster Jesus???
Why I’m (Still) Single
I sat across the dinner table from my friend of several years. She was married and a mom of 4 and was sneaking off from her family to meet me in my time of need. We had planned this for some time but I did not foresee that I would just so happen to be… Continue reading Why I’m (Still) Single
This Thanksgiving
I’ve been dreading the holidays for the last 7 years. Ever since my grandmother passed and took her home cooking along with her to heaven. It wasn’t the home cooking that I missed so much though, but the warm friendship we had shared since I was born. We were 2 peas in a pod, and… Continue reading This Thanksgiving
It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye
The first time I had to say goodbye was the hardest. Only b/c of the circumstances. I was caught off guard and in shock and I didn’t know what hit me. I prolonged the goodbye and made it last a year. It was that hard to let go. Just when I thought I was done… Continue reading It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye
I Waited for You
One of the things that has brought comfort in this “season of singleness” is the fact that there are many others having the same experiences. Many others who are fabulous, amazing individuals who could be dating or courting or “kickin it”. But they don’t. Because they desire something greater. One of those individuals is Janette… Continue reading I Waited for You
