The following is a devotional that I wrote as a sample piece for my church writing team. As I was writing this I felt that I should share it with my followers on here as well. Keep in mind as you read that the intended audience is new Christians and believers, however, I feel thatContinue reading “How Do I Pray?”

Coffee and Colossians 3
Today was Day 1 in the new Bible study: 1+2 Timothy via the She Reads Truth App. (Sidenote: I love this app. It is an online daily devotional written by women and specifically geared toward keeping busy women in the Word everyday) Each day, the studies include a couple of short passages to readContinue reading “Coffee and Colossians 3”
My Epic Fails
Today has been one of those awful, bad-from-the-start kind of days. I don’t like to complain and I do not condone negativity, but it’s been a day where everything has just turned out badly. Sometimes you just have to laugh and humor others with the series of epic fails that was your day. So, hereContinue reading “My Epic Fails”
My Hope
Easter. What a hallowed day. This day is a celebration of life and the one who overcame death. At its very essence this day holds the promise of hope. Hope that if we believe and repent we may enter into the freedom that God has for us. 2 Corinthians 5:21- God made him who hadContinue reading “My Hope”
Fear
According to Mirriam-Webster Dictionary (online) fear is, “a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc. whether the threat is real or imagined.” Lately, I’ve realized how I’ve let fear rule me.

We can never attain true perfection in this life so there is always room for improvement and progress. Reflection means reviewing an action, conversation, or thoughtContinue reading “Stop Thinking”

Do Not Neglect Progress
“All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 Scripture Saturday When I first became a mom I struggled a lot with making time for myself. Who am I kidding? I stillContinue reading “Do Not Neglect Progress”
Journaling
photo credit: http://pixgood.com/bible-coffee.html I am a writer at heart. I’ve always been a writer. I prefer paper and pencil myself, but really any medium works. I grew up crafting stories about fictional characters or taking historic events and bringing them to life via short stories. Learning comes to me best when I take a pencil toContinue reading “Journaling”
Anchor
As you will learn throughout my many posts I have developed a slight obsession with the symbolism of the anchor. It seems to be a bit of a fad on its way out in the interior design world, but to me the anchor symbolizes so much more. As I have been reading more about theContinue reading “Anchor”
