We Are All Just Followers

I have these weird revelations (or they may just be random thoughts but revelations sounds cooler), where the light bulb goes on and a deep thought arises. Yesterday was one of those days, and when reading through Matthew 3 the light bulb began to burn a little brighter. Ever heard of Wordle? Did you everContinueContinue reading “We Are All Just Followers”

Why Jesus Was Always the Right Answer in Sunday School.

Anyone else tired? And please don’t for the life of me tell me to hop of Instagram and stop comparing myself to her or to them or to their life or her style. Because I know that is a bigger player in this ever looming scheme of exhaustion. But what I am really getting atContinueContinue reading “Why Jesus Was Always the Right Answer in Sunday School.”

So I Guess This Is Hello Again?

tears were welling up in my eyes as I pressed the “write a post” button. It has been a long time since I have written on here. This used to be my safe space. The place where I could throw my words, my thoughts, my worries, my dreams and they would stick. Not that theyContinueContinue reading “So I Guess This Is Hello Again?”

24, Single + Holidays

Real Talk of Feeling Uninvited + Rejected

I learned something new these last few days. Something that I knew was happening, but didn’t. Ya feel me? It was the kind of thing that we all are aware of. The kind of thing we hate to admit and ignore its even existence. The thing we know is so the enemy working and pryingContinueContinue reading “Real Talk of Feeling Uninvited + Rejected”

ButContinueContinue reading “Moving + Coffee”

1 Step to Improving Your Quiet Time

My favorite quote of all time comes from Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis. I haven’t even finished half the book, nor have I picked it up for months. But his words still stick with me. Our cause is never more in danger than when a human, no longer desiring, but still intending, to do ourContinueContinue reading “1 Step to Improving Your Quiet Time”
