There’s something in the quiet stillness. Something in the rushing of the breeze. Fan blowing across carpet floor, clothes strewn everywhere to see. There’s something in the faltering of me. Something in the breaking of bone and marrow. Weakness creeping into every crevice, the darkness of a shadow. And yet there’s something here, something I…… Continue reading Something in the Quiet and Pain

Hope
Isn’t it interesting that the Christmas star appeared this year? Not last year, nor the year before, or even ten years ago. This year. The year of 2020. A year that has been filled with chaos, tension, and fear. It is not an accident that the Christmas star appeared this year for the first time…… Continue reading Hope
And God Sent A Cat
With everything that’s been going on, and all the craziness of the media, it’s natural that our minds and bodies are going to be more anxious, stressed, and tense. A few weeks ago, I was praying in my bed, and talking to God about that. I wasn’t really sure what specifically I was worrying about, it was…… Continue reading And God Sent A Cat
Leaving the Noise
Sometimes I find myself in this “all or nothing” mentality. If I can’t do it all at once, then it doesn’t count. If I can’t finish it, then should I even start it? This can often transition to my perfectionism heaping mounds of rules and extra responsibility onto my faith-filled life and relationship with God.…… Continue reading Leaving the Noise
Victory
In the deep, dark expanse of space, a small group of rag-tag people works together to infiltrate a massive super-weapon. They are massively outnumbered, surrounded by all sides, and the odds of all of them getting out of there alive, are frankly, astronomically small. You could say the danger radar is going off the charts.…… Continue reading Victory
What if…
What if the sun turned orange? What if the grass was suddenly the sea? What if cotton candy grew on trees, what if money was free? So many questions, and an imagination of endless possibilities! In many cases, the “what if” questions can be thought-provoking and helpful. For the inventors, the engineers, pioneers of science,…… Continue reading What if…
Seen
So I just came back from Passion on Friday and one of the sessions was about letting God have ALL of you, even the parts that are ugly or broken or that you don’t want to show Him. Let Him have 100%, not 99.9%. So basically be seen by God. As we’re driving home from…… Continue reading Seen
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
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
Resting In God When The World Is Going Crazy
This past year, my senior year, I duel-enrolled at a local college. During my second semester, I took Bio 2 and found it fascinating (minus one section *ahem* parasites/bacteria/etc). Anyway. We were learning how everything on Earth is connected and how global warming is affecting it. Here’s the short spill on it – I promise…… Continue reading Resting In God When The World Is Going Crazy
