The past couple of weeks, I’ve been going through a book called Grace for the Good Girl by Emily P. Freeman. As described in another book, Breaking Up With Perfect by Amy Carroll, there are two different types of perfectionists: “Some lovers of Perfect live with the Good Girl Syndrome. These women are rule followers by nature…… Continue reading Sitting By The Fire

God’s Promise
The rainbow. God’s promise. “Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, “Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your offspring after you, and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the…… Continue reading God’s Promise
Summer Fun
Hey y’all! How is y’all’s summer going? Are you surviving the heat – and humidity?! I’ve been having a good one so far! The past few months, my family and I have actually been trying to sell our house. We’re still staying in the same town, just moving to a different (currently gutted xD) home!…… Continue reading Summer Fun
Feeding The Spirit
Everyone always talks about how we’re made up of the mind, body, and spirit. And I knew that. But…sometimes one forgets the importance of spending time with God to your own spirit. The past couple of months I haven’t been hearing from God as much. Logically, of course, I realize that there are seasons where…… Continue reading Feeding The Spirit
Grace Abounding
Y’all probably know by now that I tend to struggle with perfectionism. With perfectionism, comes a viewpoint that makes grace incredibly hard to understand. I think as humans, grace is a hard concept in and of itself. Most situations we encounter in life are performance based and there is no grace if you mess up.…… Continue reading Grace Abounding
Do you see it?
This past semester, I dived back into Disney Channel. I had stopped watching it for a while, because frankly, the amount of disrespect that was being shown to parents, not to mention making them look stupid, was unappealing. I was pleasantly surprised to find that several of the shows were no longer treating parents in…… Continue reading Do you see it?
Lover’s Ballad
Several days ago, I was sitting in my bed at night and that ancient battle of whether or not to go with what my flesh was wanting, or what I knew my spirit needed commenced. I had not spent time with the Lord or read the Scriptures much that week, and realized I needed to,…… Continue reading Lover’s Ballad
The Purest Love
For those of y’all who didn’t realize it, American Idol started back this past Sunday! This year the judges are Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, and of course, with Ryan Seacrest as the host. As I was watching the second night, the very last audition shown caught my attention – and maybe, not for the…… Continue reading The Purest Love
Behind the Scenes
Last month, I went to see Black Panther with a group of my friends. We all drove to the movie theater, found our seats, and waited for the film to begin. There was action, humor, and everything in between, but I’ll save my longer review for another post 😉 After I see a movie, I like…… Continue reading Behind the Scenes
To Fear Or Not To Fear…
Fear. That dratted emotion that can get us all wound up and in a messy pit. Wouldn’t it be great, if we never experienced fear again, never had to worry over anything? Lived in a world where anxiety was non-existent? I think that would be pretty amazing. Unfortunately, we do live in a fallen world, and…… Continue reading To Fear Or Not To Fear…
