"You seem a little quiet lately," I told him. "You're right. I'm just going through some things," he responded. How was I supposed to know this conversation would set my path for the next few months? I suppose I might have seen it coming, but then again, I didn't realize I was in the wilderness… Continue reading I’ve Been A Little Quiet

Creases and Crumbles
I’ve always thought how sad it is when a perfectly good piece of paper is crumbled and never crisp again. Or one bend of a book cover and it is forever changed. In one moment, often without warning, something that was just fine is forever changed. I can relate to the piece of paper and… Continue reading Creases and Crumbles
Intimacy with Jesus
When God created man, He looked at him and saw that he was good. When Jesus prayed for all believers, He prayed we'd be together with Him and the Father. Jesus went to the cross and died for us, and one day He's coming back to take us with Him. Even with our sins. Even… Continue reading Intimacy with Jesus
She Needs Jesus
This one is for everyone; men, women, and myself. Last week I wrote about how Jesus is the most important quality in a man, and this week I tell you that it is also the most important quality in a woman. Men, look for a woman who has Jesus, and women, we need to seek… Continue reading She Needs Jesus
What Does Purity Even Mean?
I think purity can seem self-explanatory, but having a better understanding of what purity is and how to walk in the path of purity, we are better equipped to live the lifestyle. As I was studying for this post, I was completely bombarded with scripture and revelation. I had a deer in head lights look… Continue reading What Does Purity Even Mean?

Or if one more bad thing happens you might just break, and then another bad thing happens. Do… Continue reading Jehovah-Shalom
Plans of Hope and a Future
If you would have told me that this is where I'd be at 23 years old, I would have laughed. I wouldn't have believed you. I never imagined myself here, but I can't remember half of the plans I had for myself at this age. I know it didn't look like this though. Never did… Continue reading Plans of Hope and a Future
The Surprise Party
Last week I threw my best friend a surprise party and it was a total success. I was so overwhelmed and heart-warmed with the way people stepped up to help make it a success. I was crying in the kitchen while I was cleaning up because of how well it went. That might sound strange… Continue reading The Surprise Party
Tears
I’ve been holding in this cry and now I feel nauseous. It has to come out one way or another. I just don’t want to cry anymore. My tears at this point are redundant. They’re echos of the same pain, springing up from the same well. My heart is so heavy. All the time. Like… Continue reading Tears
We Mess Up, He Cleans Up
Do you ever feel like you've messed up one too many times and there's no bouncing back? Or maybe you messed up once, but the thing you did was so bad there is no way you can come back from it. Like, all credibility is gone and your good deeds mean nothing. You messed things… Continue reading We Mess Up, He Cleans Up
