Thoughts of Lent & Leading Into It
Full disclosure, I started writing on this on Thursday. However, I am just getting to finishing it up and posting today. So I decided to leave it as is, but be real about the timing of it all. Yesterday was Ash Wednesday. Lent has started. I will be honest, I don\’t know much about either. Continue reading “Thoughts of Lent & Leading Into It”
When It All is Too Much Sometimes – Here Come the Tears
We fall, we make mistakes, we try, we let go, get bruised and battered, we take a step, we try again. When all around you seems to be spiraling and one day everything seems to PPPLLLLTTTTHHHHH!!! in your face. You hold it together as long as you can. After the mistakes, the frustration, the anger,Continue reading “When It All is Too Much Sometimes – Here Come the Tears”
I will be honest, my faith is still growing, still changing, still learning. I am not sure where you are at with your faith, what you believe in or what you don\’t. I will tell you that I do believe in God, trust him, and use him as guide. This picture is from the otherContinue reading

After what seems like months of dealing with same negative behaviors that seem like no matterContinue reading “It\’s Okay to Break, It\’s Okay to Cry”
Believe in the Magic of Christmas

Holidays, Christmas Time, & Facing Battles While Finding True Meaning
The other day I talked about facing battles and what is your armor. Today, I am going to continue with the theme of battles. The idea came to me recently while listening to a friend, who is a podcaster and blog writer. She was talking about battles as well and how to face them duringContinue reading “Holidays, Christmas Time, & Facing Battles While Finding True Meaning”
We All Face Battles ~ What is Your Armor?
What battles are you facing? Are they small or big? What do you face daily? What does your armor look like? Sometimes our battles are small and sometimes they are big. Sometimes they last a moment, sometimes longer. Sometimes once, sometimes daily. At some point, maybe more than once, we will all face a bigContinue reading “We All Face Battles ~ What is Your Armor?”
Season of Gratitude
As we get closer to Thanksgiving, we tend to show our gratitude more and more.
