We know all the lingo, the words to the songs, we raise our hands in Worship. But, it's not enough...Our hearts have to be filled with faith & our lives filled with action. Lip service, pious tweets, & pretty Instagram pictures aren't enough.

My Biggest Minimalism Challenge
I have a challenge for my move into tiny dwelling: I'm a hoarder... Boy, that was hard to admit, but true. I have a difficult past that includes: estranged/reunited family members, abuse, neglect, exposure to death repeatedly and at an early age, multiple moves in my young life. Due to all of these, my biggest … Continue reading My Biggest Minimalism Challenge
I Want to Submit
My submission is called to be different than his. Mine revolves around due respect, of him, of his position, of our relationship, and of Christ's headship over both of us. His revolves around the command to love & sacrifice, caring for me as Christ does his church.

Between There & Here
Somewhere in the last year and a half, I lost her... I lost who I was, and who I was working to be. I became so consumed with school, work, switching jobs, more work, more homework...and just the waiting. I've been exhausted. I've been making excuses. I've stopped looking. But, now, no more … Continue reading Between There & Here
The Right Reason
This week, as I read the Tuesday @ Ten prompt FEAR, I had a hard time centering in on what I'd want to write about. I've already dredged up my worries & anxieties here; they aren't quite a secret. But, Young Adults group last night & events today made me see some of my fear in a new … Continue reading The Right Reason
