Recently I was in a panic over some decisions I needed to make. I’ve been one to pause in the face of not wanting to make a mistake or miss God. Meanwhile, God is much too big and too good to be missed. But with decisions needing to be made, time ticking, and no sure answer, I’d completely overlooked that truth. I believe that is why God tells us not…

When Sorry Never Came + steps to forgive anyway
Read moreI’ve been holding on to this post for a while now. For some reason, it just never felt like the right time to post it. I take that back; allow me to be completely honest with you. It never felt right to me because I knew the accountability that would come along with it. I never like to post things that I’m not doing or don’t plan to do, and…

Insights from the Wilderness
Read moreFor the past week I’ve been on a staycation of sorts. Basically, I’ve been dog/house sitting away from home and it’s been pretty good. During said staycation I’ve had quite a bit of time to myself. The introvert in me loves it although I’ve discovered that I’m an ambivert. But that’s beside the point. In my quiet time I had a lot of time to think to which I was…

Encouragement For Your Journey
Read moreAs a planner, I’ve wanted to know God’s entire plan for my life so that I’d be prepared or so that I can plan accordingly. But there’s no faith required for that. It’d be me getting ahead of God instead of being with Him, and I’d never want to be without Him. Of course, He will never leave nor forsake you and I, that I know for sure. But my…

Encouragement For When You’re Tempted To Quit
Read moreIn my last post about new beginnings, I talked about the temptation I had to quit. I thought I’d go deeper into what that looked like for me to hopefully encourage you. I WAS DONE BLOGGING. What happened with my job was not the only time I was tempted to quit or give up on my dreams or give up on what I believed God was calling me to do.…

Hello, New Beginnings!
Read more“It’s never too late; you can begin again.” — Joyce Meyer It’s easy to feel stuck when we lose sight of the fact that there is always a new beginning. Every moment presents the opportunity to begin again. We may have made mistakes, but instead of viewing them as a mistake that we can’t come back from, we can view them as a new lesson learned to take with us…

Encouragement For When Things Don’t Go As Planned
Read moreHow often do we think that God has called it quits when our story’s don’t unfold the way we’d planned or hoped they would? I think a lot; I mean, #justthinkingoutloud is one of my most used hashtags for a reason. (not that you knew that, but it is lol) Anyway, I was thinking about my beginning. Granted, I don’t remember much about my birth, but I can almost recall…

Not My Cup Of Tea
Read more“It’s great, but it’s just not my cup of tea.” I like tea, but I wouldn’t consider myself a tea connoisseur. Lately, though, I’ve found that my go-to drinks have been water and sprite. Perhaps because they’re both clear, or let’s be real, it’s because neither of them has caffeine. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with caffeine, but for me, I can’t overdo it. I’ll let you in on another…

Happy… New Year!
Read moreI realize that I am a few weeks late with this post oops. Happy New Year! Happy 2021! We have finally left 2020; how does it feel? Cheers to my first post of the new year, and I don’t have a topic perse. I just wanted to share my heart and talk a little about what’s been going on. So, let’s get started! As you can see, I have a…
