Today’s Prompt: Test. Honestly nothing popped into my head when I read that word- mostly because I just got done cooking bacon, making the fire alarm go off, and now I am currently questioning if the bacon is even cooked enough for me to be eating it. That’s how much of a cook I am.Continue reading “Tests Are The Worst”
Let me start out by saying this: I am already 5 days behind on this writing challenge thing. This challenge comes from Christina Hubbard, a blogger/writer who I just happen to come across by creeping on my dear friend Allie’s blog. ANYWHO. The whole gist of the challenge is this: take the one word prompt, write aContinue reading “31 Days Writing Challenge”
You may believe in God and in His son, but there are things in your life that are too deep to even speak of. There are weeds that have made their roots and you are too afraid to pull them up. There are struggles you are too ashamed to unravel.
But the thing is, if we aren’t open to receiving someone’s love or help, we aren’t fully open to receiving Him.
“A bee in a glass jar.”
That is what my mom calls me. I’m everywhere, all the time. I have always been this way, jumping from one idea to the next, but my mind has been going crazy the last 8 months, jumping from thing to thing, worrying over the smallest leap and the tiniest decision because my next step determines the rest of my life, apparently (according to myself at least). And as my mind started to race & juggle the idea of my one year contract with teaching and a 2 year program to earn my teaching credential here in California, I realized something.
I’m a weirdly vulnerable & honest person. So I want to share 10 honest things about me.
Here we go.
And now here you are, sitting in Southern California, wondering what is coming next. But as you sit here, writing to yourself, dreaming of the future again, I want to tell you something.
About a month ago I had this great idea of backing up my past post, How to be Single, a Christian, & a College Graduate – All At The Same Time. Backing it up meaning- sharing with you all that the fear of being single goes away. That when people tell you it is all going to be alright, it will be. That they aren’t lying. The hurt, the fear- it will disappear, you just have to give it time.
So the count down begins. And so do all the questions.
I used to brush off anything that mentioned women not feeling enough or worth it, loved or valued. I used to get frustrated with so many articles being written, so many posts created, telling women: YOU ARE ENOUGH. YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL. It frustrated me because women should know that. Women should feel loved. WomenContinue reading “The Lie of ‘You’re Not Worth The Pursuit’”
I have a love/hate relationship with wedding season. The part I love? Well heck- I love the love. The part that hits me where it hurts? The constant reminder that my plans weren’t His plans. This past weekend I had a stinking BLAST at my friends’, Alec and Morgan’s wedding. This weekend was all about celebrating loveContinue reading “Love & Wedding Season”
