Hey Friends – Sorry this isn’t the most exciting post you will ever read. This is just a reminder for those of you who have been following along through Google Reader. Google Reader is vanishing from our lives on July 1st. (Why Google Reader instead of Google+, the world will never know.) I wanted to […]
On June 9th our Pastor shared a lesson entitled Coveting: The Disease of Discontentment. That was my first hint to the theme that would come across my path repeatedly over the subsequent days and weeks. We were challenged to examine the excessive desire to have what belongs to someone else. Although there are days when […]
I’ve been hit with a recurring theme over the past few weeks. Does that happen to you? The sermons at church, my books, quiet time, they all seem to point in the same direction. One single word: discontentment. Discontentment is such an easy states to slip into because it is our natural state. We quickly […]
This song. These lyrics. I awake in the middle of the night and I hear it. I know these words are going to fill my head and heart when I’m fighting through labor. This song was the first one I added to my delivery playlist. First one. Even if you’ve heard this a million times, […]
Yesterday was certainly a surprise for me. I wasn’t anticipating such a strong response to my post about letting go. By noon it was the most trafficked post I’ve seen since April. After picking my jaw back up off the floor and mumbling… “wha?“, I quickly opened the post to read what I was apparently […]
I didn’t post anything yesterday. Two years ago I would have agonized over that fact. Little by little I’m learning to accept imperfection. The good girl trapped in me really wants to do EVERYTHING by the rules. Believe it or not, there are not rules for blogging. Last year I made the switch from posting […]
I’m checking in on this lovely and HOT Friday morning to share some of my favorite posts from the past few years. If you can’t tell, I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting lately. Something about “The unexamined life is not worth living…” – you know, that whole Socrates thing. So the gazillion journals have […]
Catching the theme this week? REMEMBER. Today’s Thursday tip is a retro video post with a ridiculous popped collar, but it holds truth for today! We begin in Psalm 105 again: “Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done. Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all […]
Psalm 105: 1-7 (NIV) Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done. Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he […]
I share a lot of purposeful blog posts, but every once in a while I enjoy kicking back and just sharing regular life with you. This is one of those days. I hope that’s okay with you. It has been a mile-marker of a week for me. I finished a MAJOR project (WOOT), stayed up […]
