Moving By Faith
Yesterday I made the move. And it was right after I spent the holiday out of town with dear friends. I had packed everything ahead of time because I didn’t want to be stressed the night before trying to get things together (after my flight got in). I am a great planner and I knew… Continue reading Moving By Faith
Finding Value In The Process
These days I find myself looking for a new home. The journey (as always) has been interesting. About a month ago I fell in love with a house. It had all of the stuff I wanted and then some. It checked off my check boxes and created a few new ones. The seller was an… Continue reading Finding Value In The Process
Chess Moves
I played with a friend last summer and every time I beat him. Every time. It may seem odd but I realized then that it wasn’t fun winning all the time. I realized it was because I wasn’t being challenged. Not everyone enjoys a challenge but I definitely do.
3 Months In
It will be 3 months this week since I got “the news”. I found myself today thinking about my dwindling time period of locking something in so that I don’t have a gap in pay. I found myself driving to Panera so that I could use the internet and apply for more jobs. I’m sitting at… Continue reading 3 Months In

Are We There Yet? (Guest Writer Hope Gallon)
I thought I would share some thoughts on the front lines of this thing called life. A challenge that I’m continually faced with is learning patience. I have been in graduate school for the past three years studying the art of counseling. It has seemed like an eternity although those around me have said the… Continue reading Are We There Yet?

Rosh Hashanah 2015
Happy Rosh Hashanah!! Well I’m a little late since technically Rosh Hashanah ended Tuesday but I wanted to at least address this holiday as God has spoken so much to me this last year about the importance of knowing His times and seasons. For the uniformed Rosh Hashanah is a Jewish holiday celebrating the beginning… Continue reading Rosh Hashanah 2015
Wednesday Reflection
This morning on the drive into work I was reminded by Holy Spirit how important relationship is to Him. He is all about it. That is difficult for me b/c I am all about the formula. Without me realizing it I fall into the formula. A + B = C. It gets tricky b/c the… Continue reading Wednesday Reflection
A Beautiful Storm
Yesterday I was talking to my friend who is more like a sister. I have so many of those. Sisters. And I don’t deserve them at all. Women who have stood by me over the years, have loved me unconditionally and taught me what true love is. I’m still learning. But we were talking and… Continue reading A Beautiful Storm
