So yesterday My friend Hope and I went to see Tony Evans preach in a local church. We got there and it was packed. The main room was full and the overflow room was filling up.

Recovering from Misguided Love
You know how the Bible talks about God having ways? Like those passages that say “Lord teach me Your ways” and “His ways are higher than our ways”? Well, I’ve said that prayer, “Lord, teach me Your ways” as I was sitting on the living room sofa my roommates and I shared as a 20-something. I had my Bible… Continue reading Recovering from Misguided Love
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.

Even if He Doesn’t
I was on the phone with a good friend discussing her current romantic interest. She shared her concerns, her desires and her hopes that this was “it”.

Being Kept
This morning I listened to a podcast on dysfunctional relationships. It was HEAVY stuff. It’s so easy for me to forget how “crazy” people can be in their mindset and beliefs and the way they function. How “off” they can be in their character. I keep forgetting. And instead I listen to the deceitfulness of… Continue reading Being Kept

Walking Through Open Doors; Taking Dreams Down Off High Shelves
This journey in my career has been just that. A JOURNEY. I’ve been trekking upon the twists and turns of winding roads for the last 7 years with my faithful companion Jesus. This was the path He had chosen for me, not one I had imagined for myself. Early on in our journey I faced… Continue reading Walking Through Open Doors; Taking Dreams Down Off High Shelves
Laying A Good Foundation
It’s interesting how often the foundation of a building gets overlooked. One walks up to the second floor of a mall and doesn’t think “I sure hope this floor holds up underneath me”. No, one more than likely thinks, “I sure hope my hubby doesn’t mind that I buy this Coach purse” :). Often we… Continue reading Laying A Good Foundation
Tis’ Better to be Single…Right?
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?
